Description Eugene Grosbein 2007-01-27 15:10:17 UTC
	Quagga, since version 0.99.3, takes metric value from RTM_NEWADDR
	message received from routing socket and this value overrides
        right interface metric learned by quagga at startup time.
	FreeBSD always returns zero value here (even if one have used
	'ifconfig if0 metric N' and quagga does not sanitize it.
        Then quagga passes zero interface metric to ripd
	that uses it as hop count increment value (if one does not use
	'offset-list in' for interface) thus breaking RIP.

Fix: This patch adds needed sanity check. 'If' statement added
	is always false for all versions of FreeBSD but may become true
	one day if RTM_NEWADDR would return interface metric
	set with ifconfig(1).

How-To-Repeat: 	Run quagga/ripd, make ripd obtain a route from network and
	see that it does not increase its metric when advertizes the route

Hello!

    Can't contact submitter directly (troubles with his mail relays). 
So, Eugene, have You read Bruce M. Simpsons message? May You explain why 
your "if" is better way then "#ifdef"? May we guarantee that 
ifam->ifam_metric will always be zero until freebsd developers will set 
it to the reasonable value?

With respect,
    Boris
Comment 3 Eugene Grosbein 2007-01-31 14:35:29 UTC
Hi!

I've read Bruce's answer. I think both variants are acceptable
but run time check makes it possible to build a package
that would run correctly and without recompilaton
for current kernel and for future kernel that would return right
interface metric through routing socket.

Hello!

    I've get detailed explanation from Eugen and agreed. Patch is approved.
