There are multiple reasons to remove this test as obsolete:
- The test may not possibly work for over 2.5 years, since
98b3b93791 removed the rndc.py python
tool on which this test relies.
- It isn't part of the test suite either in CI or locally unless it is
explicitly enabled. As a result, there are many issues which prevent
the test from being executed caused by various refactoring efforts
accumulated over time.
- Even if the test could be executed, it has no clear failure condition.
If the python script(s) fail, the test still passes.
Now that the artificial limit on the recv buffer has been removed, the
current system test always fails because it tests if the truncation has
happened.
Add test that sending more than 10 headers makes the connection to
closed; and add test that sending huge HTTP request makes the connection
to be closed.
Sometimes doth test could intermittently fail shortly after start due
to inability to complete a zone transfer in time. As it turned out, it
could happen due to transfers-in/out limits. Initially the defaults
were fine, but over time, especially when adding Strict/Mutual TLS, we
added more than 10 zones so it became possible to hit the limits.
This commit takes care of that by bumping the limits.
This commit reduces the size of HTTP listener quota from 300 (default)
to 100 so that it would make hitting any global limits in case of
running multiple tests in parallel in multiple containers unlikely.
This way the need in opening many file descriptors of different
kinds (e.g. client side connections and pipes) gets significantly
reduced while the required code paths are still verified.
The bin/tests/system/start.pl script waits until a "running" message is
logged by a given name server instance before attempting to send a
version.bind/CH/TXT query to it. The idea behind this was to make the
script wait until named loads all the zones it is configured to serve
before telling the system test framework that a given server is ready to
use; this prevents the need to add boilerplate code that waits for a
specific zone to be loaded to each test expecting that.
The problem is that when it looks for "running" messages, the
bin/tests/system/start.pl script assumes that the existence of any such
message in the named.run file indicates that a given named instance has
already finished loading all zones. Meanwhile, some system tests
restart all the named instances they use throughout their lifetime (some
even do that a few times), for example to run Python-based tests. The
bin/tests/system/start.pl script handles such a scenario incorrectly: as
soon as it finds any "running" message in the named.run file it inspects
and it gets a response to a version.bind/CH/TXT query, it tells the
system test framework that a given server is ready to use, which might
not be true - it is possible that only the "version.bind" zone is loaded
at that point and the "running" message found was logged by a
previously-shutdown named instance. This triggers intermittent failures
for Python-based tests.
Fix by improving the logic that the bin/tests/system/start.pl script
uses to detect server startup: check how many "running" lines are
present in a given named.run file before attempting to start a named
instance and only proceed with version.bind/CH/TXT queries when the
number of "running" lines found in that named.run file increases after
the server is started.
In the "rrsetorder" system test, the ns2 named instance is restarted
without passing the --restart option to bin/tests/system/start.pl. This
causes the log file for that named instance to be needlessly truncated.
Prevent this from happening by restarting the affected named instance
in the same way as all the other named instances used in system tests.
The previous commit failed some tests because we expect that if a
fetch fails and we have stale candidates in cache, the
stale-refresh-time window is started. This means that if we hit a stale
entry in cache and answering stale data is allowed, we don't bother
resolving it again for as long we are within the stale-refresh-time
window.
This is useful for two reasons:
- If we failed to fetch the RRset that we are looking for, we are not
hammering the authoritative servers.
- Successor clients don't need to wait for stale-answer-client-timeout
to get their DNS response, only the first one to query will take
the latency penalty.
The latter is not useful when stale-answer-client-timeout is 0 though.
So this exception code only to make sure we don't try to refresh the
RRset again if it failed to do so recently.
dohpath is specfied in draft-ietf-add-svcb-dns and has a value
of 7. It must be a relative path (start with a /), be encoded
as UTF8 and contain the variable dns ({?dns}).
When the TCP test is run on the busy server, the server might take a
while to wind the server down because it might still be processing all
that 300k invalid XFR requests.
Increate the rncd wait time to 120 seconds, the SIGTERM time to 300
seconds, and reduce the time to wait for ans servers from 1200 second
to just 120 seconds.
Add several test cases in the 'upforwd' system test to make sure
that different scenarios of Dynamic DNS update forwarding are
tested, in particular when both the original and forwarded requests
are over Do53, or DoT, or they use different transports.
The HMACs and GSSAPI are just using unallocated values.
Moving them around shouldn't cause issues.
Only the dnssec system test knew the internal number in use for hmacmd5.
Switch the primary to require 'next_key' for zone transfers then
update the catalog zone to say to use 'next_key'. Next update the
zones contents then check that those changes are seen on the
secondary.
Add a simple test PKI based on the existing one in the doth test.
Check ephemeral, forward-secrecy, and forward-secrecy-mutual-tls
TLS configurations with different scenarios.
The comments in CA.cfg file serve as a good tutorial for setting up
a simple PKI for a system test. There is a typo in one of the presented
commands, which results in openssl not exiting with an error message
instead of generating a certificate.
Fix the typo.
If an NS RRset at the parent side of a delegation point only contains
in-bailiwick NS records, at least one glue record should be included in
every referral response sent for such a delegation point or else clients
will need to send follow-up queries in order to determine name server
addresses. In certain edge cases (when the total size of a referral
response without glue records was just below to the UDP packet size
limit), named failed to adhere to that rule by sending non-truncated,
glueless referral responses.
Add tests attempting to trigger that bug in several different scenarios,
covering all possible combinations of the following factors:
- type of zone (signed, unsigned),
- glue record type (A, AAAA, both).
Bring the "glue" system test up to speed with other system tests: add
check numbering, ensure test artifacts are preserved upon failure,
improve error reporting, make the test fail upon unexpected errors,
address ShellCheck warnings.
Instead of expecting that telemetry check has already finished,
wait for it for maximum of three seconds, because named is run with
-tat=3, so the telemetry check must happen with 3 second window.

This change prepares ground for sending DNS requests using DoT,
which, in particular, will be used for forwarding dynamic updates
to TLS-enabled primaries.
The tcp Pytest on OpenBSD fairly reliably fails when receive_tcp()
on a socket is attempted:

count = 2, expiration = 1662719959.8106785
def _net_read(sock, count, expiration):
"""Read the specified number of bytes from sock. Keep trying until we

by the expiration time.
"""
s = b''
while count > 0:
try:
> n = sock.recv(count)

This is because the socket is already closed.
Bump the socket connection timeout to 10 seconds.
If there was a collision of key id across algorithms it was not
possible to determine where counter applies to which algorithm for
xml statistics while for json only one of the values was emitted.
The key names are now "<algorithm-number>+<id>" (e.g. "8+54274").
the 'resolve' binary was added for testing dns_client as part of
the export library. the export libraries are no longer supported,
and tests using 'delv' provide the same coverage, so 'resolve' can
be removed now.
dns_request_create() was a front-end to dns_request_createvia() that
was only used by test binaries. dns_request_createvia() has been
renamed to dns_request_create(), and the test programs that formerly
used dns_request_create() have been updated to use the new parameters.
The test expected `xn--ah-` to be treated as a syntax error (punycode
requires letters after the last hyphen) but libidn2 on buster
converted the label to `ah` instead. To avoid this bug, change the
invalid label to `xn--0000h` which translates to an out-of-range
unicode codepoint (beyond the maximum value) which is corectly
trated as invalid in older libidn2.
The change to `testsock.pl` in commit 258a896a broke the system
tests in out-of-tree builds because `ifconfig.sh.in` is not
copied to the worktree. Use `ifconfig.sh` instead.
Reduce the number of places that know about the number of IP addresses
required by the system tests, by changing `testsock.pl` to read the
`max` from `ifconfig.sh.in`. This should make the test runner fail
early with a clear message when the interfaces have been set up by an
obsolete script.
Add comments to cross-reference `ifconfig.sh.in`, `testsock.pl`, and
`org.isc.bind.system` to make it easier to remember what needs
updating when an IP address is added.
If there are any problems with IDN processing, DiG will now quietly
handle the name as if IDN were disabled. This means that international
query names are rendered verbatim on the wire, and ACE names are
printed raw without conversion to UTF8.
If you want to check the syntax of international domain names,
use the `idn2` utility.
It is possible to bypass Response Rate Limiting (RRL)
`responses-per-second` limitation using specially crafted wildcard
names, because the current implementation, when encountering a found
DNS name generated from a wildcard record, just strips the leftmost
label of the name before making a key for the bucket.
While that technique helps with limiting random requests like
<random>.example.com (because all those requests will be accounted
as belonging to a bucket constructed from "example.com" name), it does
not help with random names like subdomain.<random>.example.com.
The best solution would have been to strip not just the leftmost
label, but as many labels as necessary until reaching the suffix part
of the wildcard record from which the found name is generated, however,
we do not have that information readily available in the context of RRL
processing code.
Fix the issue by interpreting all valid wildcard domain names as
the zone's origin name concatenated to the "*" name, so they all will
be put into the same bucket.
The zone 'retransfer3.' tests whether zones that 'rndc signing
-nsec3param' requests are queued even if the zone is not loaded.
The test assumes that if 'rndc signing -list' shows that the zone is
done signing with two keys, and there are no NSEC3 chains pending, the
zone is done handling the '-nsec3param' queued requests. However, it
is possible that the 'rndc signing -list' command is received before
the corresponding privatetype records are added to the zone (the records
that are used to retrieve the signing status with 'rndc signing').
This is what happens in test failure
https://gitlab.isc.org/isc-projects/bind9/-/jobs/2722752.
The 'rndc signing -list retransfer3' is thus an unreliable check.
It is simpler to just remove the check and wait for a certain amount
of time and check whether ns3 has re-signed the zone using NSEC3.
Check the new configuration option's syntax using the 'checkconf' system
test.
Check if the new option works by parsing DiG's output in the 'rpz'
system test.
Previously:
* applications were using isc_app as the base unit for running the
application and signal handling.
* networking was handled in the netmgr layer, which would start a
number of threads, each with a uv_loop event loop.
* task/event handling was done in the isc_task unit, which used
netmgr event loops to run the isc_event calls.
In this refactoring:
* the network manager now uses isc_loop instead of maintaining its
own worker threads and event loops.
* the taskmgr that manages isc_task instances now also uses isc_loopmgr,
and every isc_task runs on a specific isc_loop bound to the specific
thread.
* applications have been updated as necessary to use the new API.
* new ISC_LOOP_TEST macros have been added to enable unit tests to
run isc_loop event loops. unit tests have been updated to use this
where needed.
The wait_for_zone_is_signed function was never called, which could lead
to test failures due to timing issues (where a zone was not fully signed
yet, but the test was trying to verify the zone).
Also add two missing set_nsec3param calls to ensure the ITERATIONS
value is set for these test cases.
Add two scenarios where we change the dnssec-policy from using RSASHA1
to something with NSEC3.
The first case should work, as the DS is still in hidden state and we
can basically do anything with DNSSEC.
The second case should fail, because the DS of the predecessor is
published and we can't immediately remove the predecessor DNSKEY. So
in this case we should keep the NSEC chain for a bit longer.
Add two more scenarios where we change the dnssec-policy from using
NSEC3 to something NSEC only. Both should work because there are no
restrictions on using NSEC when it comes to algorithms, but in the
cases where the DS is published we can't bluntly remove the predecessor.
Extend the nsec3 system test by also checking the DNSKEY RRset for the
expected DNSKEY records. This requires some "kasp system"-style setup
for each test (setting key properties and key states). Also move the
dnssec-verify check inside the check_nsec/check_nsec3 functions because
we will have to do that every time.
Before the commit some checks in the system test would try to verify
that different HTTP methods can be used and are functional. However,
until recently, it was not possible to tell from the output which
method was in fact used, so it turned out that +http-plain-get option
is broken.
This commit add the additional checks to prevent that from happening
in the future.
