C does not make any guarantees about the value of padding in a
structure, so bytewise comparison of two semantically equal structures
with padding can be spuriously non-equal due to non-equal padding
bytes.
Compare each member of name.attributes individually to avoid this
problem.
There were a number of places where the zone table should have been
locked, but wasn't, when dns_zt_apply was called.
Added a isc_rwlocktype_t type parameter to dns_zt_apply and adjusted
all calls to using it. Removed locks in callers.
Because dns_resolver_createfetch() locks the view, it was necessary
to unlock the zone in zone_refreshkeys() before calling it in order
to maintain the lock order, and relock afterward. this permitted a race
with dns_zone_synckeyzone().
This commit moves the call to dns_resolver_createfetch() into a separate
function which is called asynchronously after the zone has been
unlocked.
The keyfetch object now attaches to the zone to ensure that
it won't be shut down before the asynchronous call completes.
This necessitated refactoring dns_zone_detach() so it always runs
unlocked. For managed zones it now schedules zone_shutdown() to
run asynchronously, and for unmanaged zones, it requires the last
dns_zone_detach() to be run without loopmgr running.
Check that names are correctly added and deleted in the compression
context. Use many names with differing numerical prefixes to make it
relatively easy to identify and debug problems.
All we need for compression is a very small hash set of compression
offsets, because most of the information we need (the previously added
names) can be found in the message using the compression offsets.
This change combines dns_compress_find() and dns_compress_add() into
one function dns_compress_name() that both finds any existing suffix,
and adds any new prefix to the table. The old split led to performance
problems caused by duplicate names in the compression context.
Compression contexts are now either small or large, which the caller
chooses depending on the expected size of the message. There is no
dynamic resizing.
There is a behaviour change: compression now acts on all the labels in
each name, instead of just the last few.
A small benchmark suggests this is about 2x faster.
sizeof(dns_name_t) did not change but the boolean attributes are now
separated as one-bit structure members. This allows debuggers to
pretty-print dns_name_t attributes without any special hacks, plus we
got rid of manual bit manipulation code.
The dns_view implements weak and strong reference counting. When strong
reference counting reaches zero, the adb, ntatable and resolver objects
are shut down and detached.
In dns_zone and dns_nta the dns_view was weakly attached, but the
view->resolver reference was accessed directly leading to dereferencing
the NULL pointer.
Add dns_view_getresolver() method which attaches to view->resolver
object under the lock (if it still exists) ensuring the dns_resolver
will be kept referenced until not needed.
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}).
This change prepares ground for sending DNS requests using DoT,
which, in particular, will be used for forwarding dynamic updates
to TLS-enabled primaries.
When converting a string to lower case, the compiler is able to
autovectorize nicely, so a nice simple implementation is also very
fast, comparable to memcpy().
Comparisons are more difficult for the compiler, so we convert eight
bytes at a time using "SIMD within a register" tricks. Experiments
indicate it's best to stick to simple loops for shorter strings and
the remainder of long strings.
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.
Clean up dns_rdatalist_tordataset() and dns_rdatalist_fromrdataset()
functions by making them return void, because they cannot fail.
Clean up other functions that subsequently cannot fail.
The name compression unit test is expanded to check that the compressed
form matches the expected wire pattern.
Record owner names are compressed differently to rdata names by
calling dns_name_towire2 instead of dns_name_towire so check that
owner names are compressed correctly as well.
We do this by adding callbacks for when a node is added or deleted
from the keytable. dns_keytable_add and dns_keytable_delete where
extended to take a callback. dns_keytable_deletekey does not remove
the node so it was not extended.
Affected unit tests load testdata from the srcdir. Previously, there
was a kludge that chdir()ed to the tests srcdir, but that get removed
during refactoring. Instead of introducing the kludge again, the paths
were fixed to be properly prefixed with TESTS_DIR as needed.
It's wasteful to use 20 bytes and a pointer indirection to represent
two bits of information, so turn the struct into an enum. And change
the names of the enumeration constants to make the intent more clear.
This change introduces some inline functions into another header,
which confuses `gcovr` when it is trying to collect code coverage
statistics. So, in the CI job, copy more header files into a directory
where `gcovr` looks for them.
The aim is to get rid of the obsolete term "GLOBAL14" and instead just
refer to DNS name compression.
This is mostly mechanically renaming
from dns_(de)compress_(get|set)methods()
to dns_(de)compress_(get|set)permitted()
and replacing the related enum by a simple flag, because compression
is either on or off.
There was a proposal in the late 1990s that it might, but it turned
out to be unworkable. See RFC 6891, Extension Mechanisms for
DNS (EDNS(0)), section 5, Extended Label Types.
The remnants of the code that supported this in BIND are redundant.
The unit tests are now using a common base, which means that
lib/dns/tests/ code now has to include lib/isc/include/isc/test.h and
link with lib/isc/test.c and lib/ns/tests has to include both libisc and
libdns parts.
Instead of cross-linking code between the directories, move the
/lib/<foo>/test.c to /tests/<foo>.c and /lib/<foo>/include/<foo>test.h
to /tests/include/tests/<foo>.h and create a single libtest.la
convenience library in /tests/.
At the same time, move the /lib/<foo>/tests/ to /tests/<foo>/ (but keep
it symlinked to the old location) and adjust paths accordingly. In few
places, we are now using absolute paths instead of relative paths,
because the directory level has changed. By moving the directories
under the /tests/ directory, the test-related code is kept in a single
place and we can avoid referencing files between libns->libdns->libisc
which is unhealthy because they live in a separate Makefile-space.
In the future, the /bin/tests/ should be merged to /tests/ and symlink
kept, and the /fuzz/ directory moved to /tests/fuzz/.
