2017-04-26IP Flow Hash Config fixesNeale Ranns1-10/+2
- the flow hash config is (and was) cached on the load-balance object so the fib_table_t struct is not used a switch time. Therefore changes to the table's flow hash config need to be propagated to all load-balances and hance all FIB entries in the table. - enable API for setting the IPv6 table flow hash config - use only the hash config in the fib_table_t object and not on the ipX_fib_t - add tests.

2017-04-06BFD-FIB interactionsNeale Ranns1-4/+12
- single-hop BFD: attach a delegate to the appropriate adjacency - multi-hop BFD [not supported yet]: attach a delegate to the FIB entry. adjacency/fib_entry state tracks the BFD session state. when the state is down the object does not contribute forwarding hence and hence dependent objects will not use it. For example, if a route is ECMP via two adjacencies and one of them is BFD down, then only the other is used to forward (i.e. we don't drop half the traffic).

1) 16-8-8 stride. Reduce trie depth walk traded with increased memory in the top PLY. 2) separate the vector of protocol-independent (PI) fib_table_t with the vector of protocol dependent (PD) FIBs. PD FIBs are large structures, we don't want to burn the memory for ech PD type 3) Go straight to the PD FIB in the data-path thus avoiding an indirection through, e.g., a PLY pool.

1 - make the default route non-special, i.e. like any other less specific route. Consequently, all buckets have a valid valid index of either a leaf or a ply. Checks for special indeices in the data-path can thus be removed. 2 - since all leaves are now 'real' i.e. they represent a real load-balance object, to tell if a ply slot is 'empty' requeirs chekcing that the prefix length of the leaf occupying the slot is slot than the minium value for that ply. 3 - when removing a leaf find the cover first, then recurse down the ply and replace the old leaf with the cover. This saves us a ply walk. Change-Id: Idd523019e8bb1b6ef527b1f5279a5e24bcf18332 Signed-off-by: Neale Ranns <nranns@cisco.com>
2017-01-27IP Multicast FIB (mfib)Neale Ranns1-11/+39
- 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.
