Typedef Documentation

typedef enum fib_urpf_list_flag_t_ fib_urpf_list_flag_t

A unicast RPF list.

The uRPF list is the set of interfaces that a prefix can be reached through. There are 3 levels of RPF check:

  • do we have any route to the source (i.e. it's not drop)
  • did the packet arrive on an interface that the source is reachable through
  • did the packet arrive from a peer that the source is reachable through we don't support the last. But it could be done by storing adjs in the uPRF list rather than interface indices.

these conditions are checked against the list by:

  • the list is not empty
  • there is an interface in the list that is on the input interface.
  • there is an adj in the list whose MAC address matches the packet's source MAC and input interface.

To speed the last two checks the interface list only needs to have the unique interfaces present. If the uRPF check was instead implemented by forward walking the DPO chain, then that walk would encounter a great deal of non-adjacency objects (i.e. load-balances, mpls-labels, etc) and potentially the same adjacency many times (esp. when UCMP is used). To that end the uRPF list is a collapsed, unique interface only list. flags

Enumerator
FIB_URPF_LIST_BAKED 

Set to indicated that the uRPF list has already been baked.

This is protection against it being baked more than once. These are not chunky fries - once is enough.

Function Documentation

static int fib_urpf_check ( index_t  ui,
u32  sw_if_index 
)
inlinestatic

Data-Plane function to check an input interface against an uRPF list.

Parameters
uiThe uRPF list index to check against. Get this from the load-balance object that is the result of the FIB lookup
sw_if_indexThe SW interface index to validate
Returns
1 if the interface is found, 0 otherwise

static int fib_urpf_check_size ( index_t  ui)
inlinestatic

Data-Plane function to check the size of an uRPF list, (i.e.

the number of interfaces in the list).

Parameters
uiThe uRPF list index to check against. Get this from the load-balance object that is the result of the FIB lookup
Returns
the number of interfaces in the list
