Type: feature
the fib_source_t enum alone no longer defines the priority and
behaviour, instead each source must be allocated these attributes.
This allows the creation of other sources by the plugins (and
soon over the API).

Type: feature
from the API doc, a table replace is:
"
The use-case is that, for some unspecified reason, the control plane
has a very different set of entries it wants in the table than VPP
currently has. The CP would thus like to 'replace' VPP's current table
only by specifying what the new set of entries shall be, i.e. it is not
going to delete anything that already eixts.
the CP delcartes the start of this procedure with this begin_replace
API Call, and when it has populated all the entries it wants, it calls
the below end_replace API. From this point on it is of coursce free
to add and delete entries as usual.
The underlying mechanism by which VPP implements this replace is
purposefully left unspecified.
"
In the FIB, the algorithm is implemented using mark and sweep.
Algorithm goes:
1) replace_begin: this marks all the entries in that table as 'stale'
2) download all the entries that should be in this table
- this clears the stale flag on those entries
3) signal the table converged: ip_table_replace_end
- this removes all entries that are still stale
this procedure can be used when an agent first connects to VPP,
as an alternative to dump and diff state reconciliation.

Add the FIB_SOURCE_INVALID fib source type. This allows to spot
uninitialized fib source more easily (0 no longer means special) and we
can use it as placeholder when no source is present.
Use it to fix FIB_ENTRY_DBG() which was accessing the 1st source, even
when no sources were present.

Instead of all clients directly RR sourcing the entry they are tracking,
use a deidcated 'tracker' object. This tracker object is a entry
delegate and a child of the entry. The clients are then children of the
tracker.
The benefit of this aproach is that each time a new client tracks the
entry it doesn't RR source it. When an entry is sourced all its children
are updated. Thus, new clients tracking an entry is O(n^2). With the
tracker as indirection, the entry is sourced only once.

Enhance the route add/del APIs to take a set of paths rather than just one.
Most unicast routing protocols calcualte all the available paths in one
run of the algorithm so updating all the paths at once is beneficial for the client.
two knobs control the behaviour:
is_multipath - if set the the set of paths passed will be added to those
that already exist, otherwise the set will replace them.
is_add - add or remove the set
is_add=0, is_multipath=1 and an empty set, results in deleting the route.
It is also considerably faster to add multiple paths at once, than one at a time:

The interpose source allows the source/provider to insert/interpose
a DPO in the forwarding chain of the FIB entry ahead of the forwarding
provided by the next best source. For example if the API source (i.e
the 'control plane') has provided an adjacency for forwarding, then
an interpose source (e.g. a monitoring service) couold interpose a
replicatte DPO to copy the traffic to another location AND forward
using the API's adjacency.
To use the interose feature an existing source (i.e FIB_SOURCE_PLUGIN_HI)
cn specifiy as a flag FIB_ENTRY_FLAG_INTERPOSE and provide a DPO to
interpose. One might also consider using interpose in conjunction with
FIB_ENTRY_FLAG_COVER_INHERIT to ensure the interpose object affects
all prefixes in the sub-tree.

- support both pipe and uniform modes for all MPLS LSP
- all API programming for output-labels requires that the mode (and associated data) is specificed
- API changes in MPLS, BIER and IP are involved
- new DPO [sub] types for MPLS labels to handle the two modes.

- IPv6 link local table is a per-SW interface array of IPv6 unicast FIBs
- the per-interface ocst is sizeof(fib_table_t) which is small,
w.r.t. the cost of an interface
- FE80::/10 in the 'global' table points to a DPO that performs a lookup in the
input interface's LL fib.

with BIFT encoding from:
https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-wijnandsxu-bier-non-mpls-bift-encoding-00
changes:
1 - introduce the new BIFT lookup table. BIER tables that have an associated
MPLS label are added to the MPLS-FIB. Those that don't are added to the
BIER table
2 - BIER routes that have no associated output MPLS label will add a BIFT label.
3 - The BIER FMask has a path-list as a member to resolve via any possible path.

Most FIB entries will only ever have one source providing forwarding
information. Currently the source infom is stored in a vector of sources
on the FIB entry. Change this to a union of one source inline and a vector.
This saves the need to alloc a vector of sources for each FIB entry.

Paths are given a preference, lowest value is 'best'. Only paths that are up are up contribute to fprwarding - that's unchanged. What's new is that of the path's that re up only those that have the best preference contribute. A poor man's primary and backup. It's not true primary/backup function because the FIB must converge before the lower preference paths are used.

there are, intentionally, no validation checks in the ARP/ND code to prevent an ARP/ND entry from being installed for an address that is not local to the interface's sub-net. This is ok, since the adjacency/FIB code is designed to handle this case using the 'refinement' criteria - i.e. only installing a FIB entry for the address if the address 'refines' (i.e. is more specific than) the interface's sub-net.
However, the refinement criteria currently operates on the FIB entry's prefix (which is a /32, so on the address) and not on the next-hop in the path.
So, enter multiple ARP entries for the same address on different links, and this refinement criteria uses only the last added path, and so will remove the FIB entry should the ARP entries be added in the 'wrong' order.
This fix updates the refinement criteria to work on each path of the FIB entry. The entry is installed if one of the paths refines the covers and only paths refining the cover contribute forwarding.
Per-path refinement checks are stored in path-extensions. The patch is rather large as path-extension, which were previously used only for out-going MPLS labels, have been generalized.

- only build them for popular path-lists (where popular means more than 64 children)
the reason to have a map is to improve convergence speed for recursive prefixes - if there are only a few this technique is not needed
- only build them when there is at least one path that has recursive constraints, i.e. a path that can 'fail' in a PIC scenario.
- Use the MAPS in the switch path.
- PIC test cases for functionality (not convergence performance)

1 - interface-DPO
Used in the Data-plane to change a packet's input interface
2 - MPLS multicast FIB entry
Same as a unicast entry but it links to a replicate not a load-balance DPO
3 - Multicast MPLS tunnel
Update MPLS tunnels to use a FIB path-list to describe the endpoint[s]. Use the path-list to generate the forwarding chain (DPOs) to link to .
4 - Resolve a path via a local label (of an mLDP LSP)
For IP multicast entries to use an LSP in the replication list, we need to decribe the 'resolve-via-label' where the label is that of a multicast LSP.
5 - MPLS disposition path sets RPF-ID
For a interface-less LSP (i.e. mLDP not RSVP-TE) at the tail of the LSP we still need to perform an RPF check. An MPLS disposition DPO performs the MPLS pop validation checks and sets the RPF-ID in the packet.
6 - RPF check with per-entry RPF-ID
An RPF-ID is used instead of a real interface SW if index in the case the IP traffic arrives from an LSP that does not have an associated interface.

allow this config to function:
set int ip address loop0 169.254.1.1/32 (the default GW address for attached hosts)
set int unnumbered af_packet0 use loop0 ('enable' IP on the host interface)
ip route add 192.168.1.1/32 via af_packet0 (where to find the host)
repeat for each host and host interface.
Inter-host communication is throught the /32 routes.
To allow this:
1 - attached host routes have the ATTACHED flag set, so the ARP code accepts then as legitimate sources
2 - unnumbered interfaces inherit the source address from the IP interface

- IPv[46] mfib tables with support for (*,G/m), (*,G) and (S,G) exact and longest prefix match
- Replication represented via a new replicate DPO.
- RPF configuration and data-plane checking
- data-plane signals sent to listening control planes.
The functions of multicast forwarding entries differ from their unicast conterparts, so we introduce a new mfib_table_t and mfib_entry_t objects. However, we re-use the fib_path_list to resolve and build the entry's output list. the fib_path_list provides the service to construct a replicate DPO for multicast.
'make tests' is added to with two new suites; TEST=mfib, this is invocation of the CLI command 'test mfib' which deals with many path add/remove, flag set/unset scenarios, TEST=ip-mcast, data-plane forwarding tests.
Updated applications to use the new MIFB functions;
- IPv6 NS/RA.
- DHCPv6
unit tests for these are undated accordingly.

1) vec_free the fe_srcs of a fib_entry_t when the fib_entry_t is itself reed
2) in the load-balance fixup if a drop path is required add this to a new vector of next-hops 'fixed_nhs'. This vector is managed by the load-balance function. The caller continues to manage its own set. The function is now const implying that the caller is safe to assume the next-hops do not change.
