named-checkzone does not use libbind9. Update the Visual Studio project
file template for named-checkzone to reflect that, thus preventing
compilation issues during parallel builds.
Make stderr fully buffered on Windows to improve named performance when
it is logging to stderr, which happens e.g. in system tests. Note that:
- line buffering (_IOLBF) is unavailable on Windows,
- fflush() is called anyway after each log message gets written to the
default stderr logging channels created by libisc.
BIND system tests are run in a Cygwin environment. Apparently Cygwin
shell sets the SEM_NOGPFAULTERRORBOX bit in its process error mode which
is then inherited by all spawned child processes. This bit prevents the
Windows Error Reporting dialog from being displayed, which I assume is
part of an effort to contain memory handling errors triggered by Cygwin
binaries in the Cygwin environment. Unfortunately, this also prevents
automatic crash dump creation by Windows Error Reporting and Cygwin
itself does not handle memory errors in native Windows processes spawned
from a Cygwin shell.
Fix by clearing the SEM_NOGPFAULTERRORBOX bit inside named if it is
started in a Cygwin environment, thus overriding the Cygwin-set process
error mode in order to enable Windows Error Reporting to handle all
named crashes.
When libxml2 is to be used in a multi-threaded application, the
xmlInitThreads() function must be called before any other libxml2
function. This function does different things on various platforms and
thus one can get away without calling it on Unix systems, but not on
Windows, where it initializes critical section objects used for
synchronizing access to data structures shared between threads. Add the
missing xmlInitThreads() call to prevent crashes on affected systems.
Also add a matching xmlCleanupThreads() call to properly release the
resources set up by xmlInitThreads().
isc_event_allocate() calls isc_mem_get() to allocate the event structure. As
isc_mem_get() cannot fail softly (e.g. it never returns NULL), the
isc_event_allocate() cannot return NULL, hence we remove the (ret == NULL)
handling blocks using the semantic patch from the previous commit.
When updating the statistics for RRset types, if a header is marked
stale or ancient, the appropriate statistic counters are decremented,
then incremented.
Also fix some out of date comments.
The stale RR types are now printed with '#'. This used to be the
prefix for RR types that were marked ancient, but commit
df50751585 changed the meaning. It is
probably better to keep '#' for stale RR types and introduce a new
prefix for reintroducing ancient type stat counters.
- this required modification to the code that generates grammar text for
the documentation, because the "dnssec-lookaside" option spanned more
than one line in doc/misc/options, so grepping out only the lines
marked "// obsolete" didn't remove the whole option. this commit adds
an option to cfg_test to print named.conf clauses only if they don't
have the obsolete, ancient, test-only, or not-yet-implemented flags
set.
