bgpd: Remove the double-pass parsing of NLRIs
* bgpd parses NLRIs twice, a first pass "sanity check" and then a second pass that changes actual state. For most AFI/SAFIs this is done by bgp_nlri_sanity_check and bgp_nlri_parse, which are almost identical. As the required action on a syntactic error in an NLRI is to NOTIFY and shut down the session, it should be acceptable to just do a one pass parse. There is no need to atomically handle the NLRIs. * bgp_route.h: (bgp_nlri_sanity_check) Delete * bgp_route.c: (bgp_nlri_parse) Make the prefixlen size check more general and don't hard-code AFI/SAFI details, e.g. use prefix_blen library function. Add error logs consistent with bgp_nlri_sanity_check as much as possible. Add a "defense in depth" type check of the prefixlen against the sizeof the (struct prefix) storage - ala bgp_nlri_parse_vpn. Update standards text from draft RFC4271 to the actual RFC4271 text. Extend the semantic consistency test of IPv6. E.g. it should skip mcast NLRIs for unicast safi as v4 does. * bgp_mplsvpn.{c,h}: Delete bgp_nlri_sanity_check_vpn and make bgp_nlri_parse_vpn_body the bgp_nlri_parse_vpn function again. (bgp_nlri_parse_vpn) Remove the notifies. The sanity checks were responsible for this, but bgp_update_receive handles sending NOTIFY generically for bgp_nlri_parse. * bgp_attr.c: (bgp_mp_reach_parse,bgp_mp_unreach_parse) Delete sanity check. NLRI parsing done after attr parsing by bgp_update_receive. Arising out of discussions on the need for two-pass NLRI parse with: Lou Berger <lberger@labn.net> Donald Sharp <sharpd@cumulusnetworks.com>
