Fact: ietf-interface.c has become too unwieldy.
Therefore, split it, roughly based on the YANG structure, into
multiple files.
There is much more to do here, like cleaning up the naming (which is
all over the place), moving more system commands into dagger, etc. But
I wanted to keep this change to a strict code reshuffle.
Previously, the generation number was only increased for successful
evolutions. This led to a confusing state in /run/net where multiple
<N>-ABANDONED-<date> directories could exist, with the same value of
N.
Move to a scheme where the generation increments every time we evolve,
even if the evolution fails. If multiple consecutive evolutions fail,
we can now unabiguously determine the order in which they were
executed.
When reconfiguring the system many times (seen during regression
testing), the RAM usage of keeping all generations around starts to
add up.
A tmpfs file, no matter how small, will always consume at least one
full page (4k). So one generation of tiny setup scripts and log files
can end up locking a 1 MB (!) of memory.
Therefore: Once we're done with a generation, archive it in a
compressed tarball, which typically fits inside a single 4k
page. Limit the total number of archives to 10. This should give full
visibility into the history of a system in all normal situations,
while still allowing hammering systems with reconfig cycles in testing
scenarios.
If the callable threw an exception, then the process running inside
the netns would exit before sending back a value on the tx pipe, which
meant that `rx.recv()` would hang in the original process.
Make sure that we catch any exceptions, and send that instead of the
result over the pipe in those scenarios. Then in the original process,
re-raise the exception.
Before this change, setting `GIT_VERSION` in `make`'s environment was
intended to allow the user to specify a custom build id. As it turns
out, `test/test.mk` had duplicated the logic from
`board/common/post-build.sh` to unconditionally override any value set
in it. Because of the way `make` handles variables, where assignments
to variables inherited from the environment are exported back to
it[^1], this would mean that `test.mk` would always clobber any value
set by the user. Furthermore, there is also this file called
`buildroot/package/git/git.mk`, which also (reasonably) has opinions
about what the proper value of `GIT_VERSION` should be. In summary,
this was a bit of a mess.
Therefore: Make sure that there is one single place where we determine
the build id and version, and make sure that those variables are
scoped under the `INFIX_` prefix to avoid clashing with any other
component.

Overhaul text and grammar. Simplify, correct, and add information about
the new mDNS settings. Replace 'unit' with 'device', which is the more
common term for hardware.

Fixes the following issue when deleting /infix-services:mdns/interfaces,
which works fine over RESTCONF:

The Avahi daemon needs to be restarted when changing its configuration
file in /etc/avahi/avahi-daemon.conf, not sufficient to SIGHUP.
Also, minor reformatting for new style.

Use container for interface allow/deny and for reflector settings.
Hopefully there will be more settings in the future, e.g., control
reflector interfaces independently.

Introduce a new approach to dtb-building:
Old way: `rsync` an overlay containing our dt source to the kernel,
and then build via buildroot's `_INTREE_DTS_NAME`. This does not work
in recent kernels (at least since 6.12), which requires all dtb's to
be explicitly listed in a `Makefile`.
New way: Create a separate package for every board, and build the
device trees via the kernel's standard interface for building external
modules. This has two main advantages:
1. We can easily interpose a patched version of an upstream device
tree. E.g., we can easily set the factory password.
2. It is much easier to get an overview of which boards are enabled,
rather than scrolling back and forth in the `_INTREE_DTS_NAME` list.
Enable all fully supported boards in the defconfigs.
These changes are based on the sysctl recommendations by Frr [1].
Not all recommendations have been incorporated, e.g., ip forwarding is
not enabled per interface, because in Infix this is an opt-in feature.
A readme.txt has been added, documenting the various settings.
New for IPv4:
- Adjust IGMP max memberships: 20 -> 1000
- Use neighbor information on nexthop selection
- Use inbound interface address on ICMP errors
- Ignore routes with link down
- Disable rp_filter
ARP settings have been changed to better fit routers, i.e., systems
with multiple interfaces:
- Always use best local address when sending ARP
- Only reply to ARP if target IP is on the inbound interface
- Generate ARP requests when device is brought up or HW address changes
New for IPv6:
- Keep static global addresses on link down
- Ignore routes with link down
Fixes#829
