Updated: Jan 9

OpenBGPD 8.9 has been released and will soon be arriving in the OpenBGPD directory of your local OpenBSD mirror.


This release includes the following changes to the previous release:


  • In verbose mode log the NOTIFICATION data for UPDATE errors.

  • Fix a busy loop error in the pfkey handling for OpenBSD and FreeBSD.

  • Introduce monotime - an internal time API using micorsecond resolution.

  • Fix accounting of the pending update counter.

  • Use new ibufq interface instead of handrolling the same.

  • Large refactoring of internal APIs to make the code easier to share and cleaner.


OpenBGPD-portable is known to compile and run on FreeBSD and the Linux distributions Alpine, Debian, Fedora, RHEL/CentOS and Ubuntu. It is our hope that packagers take interest and help adapt OpenBGPD-portable to more distributions.


We welcome feedback and improvements from the broader community. Thanks to all of the contributors who helped make this release possible.
