NOTE: this now targets #1811

  1. Add support to show ip route information for a given VPC name.
    This includes showing the routing tables for a vpc, the next-hops and the fib, for both ipv4 and ipv6.
    fixes Make sure all dp-cli commands accepts and prints vpc name #1781
  2. ip routes, fib, fib-groups and next-hops can be requested for a given VNI too.
  3. add support to get routes targeting a given prefix (i.e. support prefix=....)
  4. clean-up and simplify CLI code.
  5. add support to query the router macs for a given vni or ip address (vni=...., address=....)
  6. fix completion issue where argument would be swallowed.
  7. Add dynamic auto-completion where the cli pre-fetches the identifiers for a given argument.
    This is useful so that, for instance, when typing show ip route vpc=......... the vpc needs not be typed but selected
    from a list dynamically returned by dataplane.
    This auto-completion is implemented for vpc names, interface names (unused), vnis and router mac addresses and can
    be easily extended.
  8. Simplify & unify CLI argument parsing
  9. Add support to filter routes by prefix-length

Sample: get the routes for VPC called VPC-3

dataplane(✔)# show ip route vpc=VPC-3

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The CLI now supports VPC-based command selection, shared session state, dynamic completion prefetch, VRF lookup by VPC name, filtered route and FIB output, RMAC filtering, and prefetch requests over the CLI protocol.

Changes

CLI VPC selection and prefetch

Layer / File(s) Summary
Protocol and shared session
cli/src/cliproto.rs, cli/bin/prefetch.rs, cli/bin/terminal.rs, cli/bin/main.rs
CLI requests and responses carry selectors and prefetched data. Terminal socket access and prefetched values are shared through Session.
Command selectors and completion
cli/bin/argsparse.rs, cli/bin/cmdtree.rs, cli/bin/cmdtree_dp.rs, cli/bin/completions.rs
Commands accept VPC, VNI, interface, and RMAC selectors. Completion retrieves selector values from the shared session and filters candidates by the typed fragment.
VPC metadata and VRF lookup
config/src/internal/routing/vrf.rs, routing/src/rib/vrf.rs, routing/src/rib/vrftable.rs, routing/src/config/vrf.rs, mgmt/src/processor/confbuild/*
VRF configuration and runtime state use vpcname instead of description. Lookup supports multiple VRFs with the same VPC name.
Routing filters and CLI output
routing/src/cli/*.rs, routing/src/evpn/rmac.rs
Route, FIB, and RMAC output uses validated filters and displays VPC values. The handler dispatches prefetch requests and related actions.

Suggested reviewers: daniel-noland

Priority: ➖ Normal

Severity of issue fixed: Medium

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 47e46

CLI completion can hang when a prefetch response is missing, and interface-name completion is unavailable. VPC lookup behavior also lacks direct regression coverage, so the change should be addressed before merge.

Explanation

The PR includes changes not required by Issue #1781. These changes add route and FIB prefix filters, EVPN router-MAC filters, VNI, router-MAC, and interface completion, interface query changes, prefetch protocol and caching, socket and session refactoring, and broad CLI request-handling changes. The summary does not establish a direct connection between these changes and VPC-name input or output.

Resolution

Remove the unrelated prefix-filtering, router-MAC, interface, prefetch, and broad CLI/session changes from this PR, or move them to separate issues and pull requests. Keep the VPC-name input, VPC-name output, and directly supporting implementation and tests.

We don't have any user relying on the CLI at the moment, right? So it's safe to change the name of an existing command?

Yes, I think change a command name is fine provided that the show tech-support command for our overall system isn't using the command. @Fredi-raspall did you check that our show tech scripts don't use this command?

@Fredi-raspall can you add some test coverage for these changes? I know dataplane-cli doesn't have the best coverage and it is a debug tool, but it would be good to at least get something. You can see here that almost none of the new code is covered by any testing. Doesn't have to be perfect, but if we slowly add coverage over time, we'll eventually get good coverage here.

Add tests for VPC lookup.

get_vrfs_by_vpc drives VPC CLI selection. The local tests set vpcname but do not call this method. Add cases for an exact match, no match, and two matching VRFs. This protects the new collection contract from regressions.

Based on learnings, new critical logic requires focused coverage.

* remove the lazy resolution of next-hops: on paper it may be
  beneficial to enable optimizations, but if checking for loops
  requires recoursing, a direct recursive resolution may just do it.
  Also, the correctness of the lazy resolution could depend on the
  order in which next-hops are resolved, which makes it fragile.
* make next-hop's resolvers private and let a single method
  resolve() set to them, ensuring that no loop is ever present.
* This allows removing the loop guards scattered around on every use
  of nexthops in multiple places.
* remove unused proof-of-concept impls and tests.
* Adapt the existing tests (Claude)

Handle ip commands (e.g. show ip route, show ip fib, show ip next-hops,
etc.) by accepting a vrf selector which can be:
  - vpc name
  - vrf id
  - vni

The cli may allow setting multiple of those, possibly in incompatible
ways. The precedence to look up a vrf is the order above.

Add "dynamic data" autocompletion for several request arguments.
E.g. when typing show ip route vpc=, make the distinct vpc names
available from dataplane.

This is achived by definining a prefetch request with a selector
field, indicating the type of identifiers to select (e.g. vpc
names) and issuing from the completion methods. When dataplane
receives a prefetch request, it looks up the information depending
on the selector and builds a CliResponse that now includes
PrefetchedData. PrefetchedData is currently made of a single
vector of identifiers, since completion happens one argument
at a time.

The reedline completer runs one key at a time. To avoid sending
multiple prefetch requests when editing a single line (per keystroke),
the pre-fetched data is cached. To share that cache and the socket
over which both user requests and pre-fetch requests are sent,
new wrapper type Session and (SharedSession) is defined.

The prefetch is implemented for:
  - vpc names
  - vnis
  - router mac addresses
  - interface names (not used)

... and can be easily extended to other dynamic identifiers.

Currently, VPCs have a single VRF. Therefore, two VRFs should
not have the same vpc name assigned. Currently, this is not
enforced by the vrf table but the calling code. So the vrftable
does not prevent two vrfs from having the same vpc name.

However, unlike the vni or the vrfid, two vrfs may be allowed
to have the same vpc name in the future if we allow vpcs to
keep several vrfs. So, instead of enforcing that a vpc name
be distinct for all vrfs, leave that possibility for the future
and make sure that we display them all if that happens.

The existing mechanism to filter rmac entries is very generic,
but requires Box<dyn ..>. This allows building arbitrary filtering
closures and combining them. That's overkill for our purposes.

Instead, redefine RmacFilter as a structure with the conditions
to match, which simplifies the implementation and avoids the Box<dyn>.

This shifts the filtering logic to the rmac store, on which the
cli handling relies and allows adding tests for the filtering
alone, independently of their use.

The current methods to receive data from dataplane are blocking
and never time out. This is intended since there's nothing other
than waiting that the CLI should do after sending a request.

For prefecthing completion data, we may want the prefetching
task to time out if no data is received after some time. Otherwise
the CLI would remain stuck.

Add recv methods that time out.

Exercise recv_sync_timeout over real unix datagram sockets: it gives up
once the budget is spent when nobody answers, it spends one budget for
the whole message rather than renewing it per chunk (and restores the
read timeout the socket already carried), it still returns a multi-chunk
response that arrives in time, and it does not wait at all on a
non-blocking socket, which is the invariant its doc comment states.

It would be great to get some tests, for example to making sure that filters behave as expected, or that the prefetch works as expected, too.

Please find some other comments/questions inline below.

I've refactored the filtering code and added tests for it.
