The Windows support has been completely removed from the source tree
and BIND 9 now no longer supports native compilation on Windows.
We might consider reviewing mingw-w64 port if contributed by external
party, but no development efforts will be put into making BIND 9 compile
and run on Windows again.
Commit bdb777b2a2 updated the man pages
to contents produced using:
- Sphinx 4.0.2
- sphinx-rtd-theme 0.5.2
- docutils 0.17.1
However, sphinx-rtd-theme 0.5.2 is incompatible with versions 0.17+ of
the docutils package. This problem was addressed in the Docker image
used for building man pages by downgrading the docutils package to
version 0.16.
Regenerate the man pages again, this time using:
- Sphinx 4.0.2
- sphinx-rtd-theme 0.5.2
- docutils 0.16
This is necessary to prevent the "docs" GitLab CI job from failing.
The default value of the "man_make_section_directory" Sphinx option was
changed in Sphinx 4.0.1, which broke building man pages in maintainer
mode as the shell code in doc/man/Makefile.am expects man pages to be
built in doc/man/_build/man/, not doc/man/_build/man/<section_number>/.
The aforementioned change in defaults was reverted in Sphinx 4.0.2, but
this issue should still be prevented from reoccurring in the future.
Ensure that by explicitly setting the "man_make_section_directory"
option to False.
The man pages produced by Sphinx 4.0.2 are slightly different than those
produced by Sphinx 3.5.4. As Sphinx 4.0.2 is now used in GitLab CI,
update all doc/man/*in files so that they reflect what that version of
Sphinx produces, in order to prevent GitLab CI job failures.
This commit adds a new configuration option to set the receive and send
buffer sizes on the TCP and UDP netmgr sockets. The default is `0`
which doesn't set any value and just uses the value set by the operating
system.
There's no magic value here - set it too small and the performance will
drop, set it too large, the buffers can fill-up with queries that have
already timeouted on the client side and nobody is interested for the
answer and this would just make the server clog up even more by making
it produce useless work.
The `netstat -su` can be used on POSIX systems to monitor the receive
and send buffer errors.
By default readthedocs.org uses Sphinx 1.8.5, but MR !4563 has
introduced depedency on ReferenceRole class which is available only in
Sphinx 2.0.0.
Path to doc/arm/requirements.txt needs to be configured in
readthedocs.org.
Update the ARM to mention the new built-in "insecure" policy. Update
the DNSSEC guide recipe "Revert to unsigned" to add the additional
step of reconfiguring the zone to "insecure" (instead of immediately
set it to "none").
* The location of the digest type field has changed to where the
reserved field was.
* The reserved field is now called scheme and is where the digest
type field was.
* Digest type 2 has been defined (SHA256).
Define a :gl: Sphinx role that takes a GitLab issue/MR number as an
argument and creates a hyperlink to the relevant ISC GitLab URL. This
makes it easy to reach ISC GitLab pages directly from the release notes.
Make all GitLab references in the release notes use the new Sphinx role.
