A way to find out about the bfd-peer status asynchronously without using vtysh

[jatin98batra]

Hello everyone, is there any way we can find the status of a dead peer, so that I don't have to poll again and again using vtysh.
This would be used in fast convergence of the static route.

Thanks
Jatin

If you want to fast converge a static route the proper implementation is here: #10230

However it needs some work to get back up in shape again to merge in master branch. The alternative for monitoring peer status is explained here:
#7050 (comment)

Thanks for the quick reply, I'm in a bit of hurry, bfdctl.c seems the way to do it. Let me quickly compile and test it.
Let's see if it could give me convergence time in "ms" range.

Thanks again.

Thank you so much, seems like it would work!
