ospf3 and bird interface in non-default FIB

[Eugene M. Zheganin]

Hello,

I'm running Bird 2.0.11 on FreeBSD 13.2, I also have a number of bird 
2.0.x in local network. For a number of reasons I need the interface the 
OSPF is bound to to be in non-default FIB.

As soon as I put it there, I'm starting to get the periodic errors like


===Cut===

ospfv4: Socket error on igb0: Network is unreachable


===Cut===

(v4 here stands for IPv4) and the bird is also unable to establish the 
neighborship with 2 of 7 it's neighbors:

For instance, 192.168.57.35 and 192.168.57.37 are stuck in ExtStart. Why ?


My config looks like this:

protocol ospf ospfv4 {
    ipv4 {
        table master4;
        export filter exportospfv4;
        import filter importospfv4;
    };
    #debug all;
    area 0.0.0.0 {
        interface "igb0" {
            cost 111;
        };
        interface "tun0" {
            cost 111;
        };
    };
    area 0.0.0.1 {
        interface "gif1" {
            cost 4111;
        };
        interface "ipsec0" {
            cost 7111;
        };
    };
    area 0.0.0.2 {
        interface "gre1" {
            cost 1211;
        };
        interface "gre2" {
            cost 1111;
        };
        interface "gre6";
    };
    area 0.0.0.3 {
        interface "gif5";
        interface "ipsec1";
    };
    area 0.0.0.4 {
        interface "ipsec2";
        interface "gre4";
        interface "gre5";
    };
    area 0.0.0.5 {
        interface "ipsec3";
    };
    area 0.0.0.6 {
        interface "ipsec4";
    };
}

I've also tried to put ospfv4 protocol in the same FIB the interface is 
in (adding the "table fib1" statement), but got the same error about 
network unreachability. Restarting bird does not clear this state also. 
Running ospf with full debug gives this:

Right now I have no idea how to fix this.

Thanks.
