From Cppcheck:
Passing NULL after the last typed argument to a variadic function leads to
undefined behaviour. The C99 standard, in section 7.15.1.1, states that if the
type used by va_arg() is not compatible with the type of the actual next
argument (as promoted according to the default argument promotions), the
behavior is undefined. The value of the NULL macro is an implementation-defined
null pointer constant (7.17), which can be any integer constant expression with
the value 0, or such an expression casted to (void*) (6.3.2.3). This includes
values like 0, 0L, or even 0LL.In practice on common architectures, this will
cause real crashes if sizeof(int) != sizeof(void*), and NULL is defined to 0 or
any other null pointer constant that promotes to int. To reproduce you might be
able to use this little code example on 64bit platforms. If the output includes
"ERROR", the sentinel had only 4 out of 8 bytes initialized to zero and was not
detected as the final argument to stop argument processing via
va_arg(). Changing the 0 to (void*)0 or 0L will make the "ERROR" output go away.
void f(char *s, ...) {
va_list ap;
va_start(ap,s);
for (;;) {
char *p = va_arg(ap,char*);
printf("%018p, %s\n", p, (long)p & 255 ? p : "");
if(!p) break;
}
va_end(ap);
}
void g() {
char *s2 = "x";
char *s3 = "ERROR";
// changing 0 to 0L for the 7th argument (which is intended to act as
// sentinel) makes the error go away on x86_64
f("first", s2, s2, s2, s2, s2, 0, s3, (char*)0);
}
void h() {
int i;
volatile unsigned char a[1000];
for (i = 0; i<sizeof(a); i++)
a[i] = -1;
}
int main() {
h();
g();
return 0;
}

Until now, the build process for BIND on Windows involved upgrading the
solution file to the version of Visual Studio used on the build host.
Unfortunately, the executable used for that (devenv.exe) is not part of
Visual Studio Build Tools and thus there is no clean way to make that
executable part of a Windows Server container.
Luckily, the solution upgrade process boils down to just adding XML tags
to Visual Studio project files and modifying certain XML attributes - in
files which we pregenerate anyway using win32utils/Configure. Thus,
extend win32utils/Configure with three new command line parameters that
enable it to mimic what "devenv.exe bind9.sln /upgrade" does. This
makes the devenv.exe build step redundant and thus facilitates building
BIND in Windows Server containers.

The native implementation's conversion from the uint8_t buffers to uint64_t now
follows the reference implementation that doesn't require aligned buffers.
when looking for a possible wildcard match in the RPZ summary database,
use an rbtnodechain to walk up label by label, rather than using the
node's parent pointer.

Commit 91307842b8 inadvertently mangled
the XML structure inside lib/isc/win32/libisc.vcxproj.filters.in, thus
breaking the Windows build. Add the missing XML tags to make Windows
builds work again.
There's a deadlock in BIND 9 code where (dns_view_t){ .lock } and
(dns_resolver_t){ .buckets[i].lock } gets locked in different order. When
view->weakrefs gets converted to a reference counting we can reduce the locking
in dns_view_weakdetach only to cases where it's the last instance of the
dns_view_t object.
