Hm. What do you need from bird OSPF implementation?
IMHO it is much easier to improve and merge bird code instead of
writing another OSPF implementation from scratch.
There are _some_ non-resolved issues with OSPF lsa withdrawal/announce,
but it will be fixed "soon".
implementation, quagga doesn't scale well and openospfd doesn't compile
on 10-RELEASE or CURRENT.
But I'm only interested in selectively processing packets on the
netmap-enabled interface. Is there a way to do this? Or alternatively
Yes, you can do this by adding another to-host inteface. AFAIK current
bridge code for netmap is a good example.
In fact, we're using netmap as forwarding appliance with bird as control
plane mechanism.
if I throw the IF into netmap mode, can I process what I'm interested in
processing and then somehow throw the rest of the traffic back up to the
host's IP stack?
