The SO_INCOMING_CPU is available since Linux 3.19 for getting the value,
but only since Linux 4.4 for setting the value (see below for a full
description). BIND 9 should not fail when setting the option on the
socket fails, as this is only an optimization and not hard requirement
to run BIND 9.
SO_INCOMING_CPU (gettable since Linux 3.19, settable since Linux 4.4)
Sets or gets the CPU affinity of a socket. Expects an integer flag.
int cpu = 1;
setsockopt(fd, SOL_SOCKET, SO_INCOMING_CPU, &cpu, sizeof(cpu));
Because all of the packets for a single stream (i.e., all
packets for the same 4-tuple) arrive on the single RX queue that
is associated with a particular CPU, the typical use case is to
employ one listening process per RX queue, with the incoming
flow being handled by a listener on the same CPU that is
handling the RX queue. This provides optimal NUMA behavior and
keeps CPU caches hot.
Originally, the default value for max-stale-ttl was 1 week, which could
and in some scenarios lead to cache exhaustion on a busy resolvers.
Picking the default value will always be juggling between value that's
useful (e.g. keeping the already cached records after they have already
expired and the upstream name servers are down) and not bloating the
cache too much (e.g. keeping everything for a very long time). The new
default reflects what we think is a reasonable to time to react on both
sides (upstream authoritative and downstream recursive).
When creating the successor, the current active key (predecessor)
should change its goal state to HIDDEN.
Also add two useful debug logs in the keymgr_key_rollover function.
Catch a case where if the prepublication time of the successor key
is later than the retire time of the predecessor. If that is the
case we should prepublish as soon as possible, a.k.a. now.
The `dns_keymgr_run()` function became quite long, put the logic
that looks if a new key needs to be created (start a key rollover)
in a separate function.
The logic in `keymgr_key_has_successor(key, keyring)` is flawed, it
returns true if there is any key in the keyring that has a successor,
while what we really want here is to make sure that the given key
has a successor in the given keyring.
Rather than relying on `keymgr_key_exists_with_state`, walk the
list of keys in the keyring and check if the key is a successor of
the given predecessor key.
This improves keytime testing on CSK rollover. It now
tests for specific times, and also tests for SyncPublish and
Removed keytimes.
Since an "active key" for ZSK and KSK means something
different, this makes it tricky to decide when a CSK is
active. An "active key" intuitively means the key is signing
so we say a CSK is active when it is creating zone signatures.
This change means a lot of timings for the CSK rollover tests
need to be adjusted.
The keymgr code needs a slight change on calculating the
prepublication time: For a KSK we need to include the parent
registration delay, but for CSK we look at the zone signing
property and stick with the ZSK prepublication calculation.
Registration delay is not part of the Iret retire interval, thus
removed from the calculation when setting the Delete time metadata.
Include the registration delay in prepublication time, because
we need to prepublish the key sooner than just the Ipub
publication interval.
This commit adds testing keytiming metadata. In order to facilitate
this, the kasp system test undergoes a few changes:
1. When finding a key file, rather than only saving the key ID,
also save the base filename and creation date with `key_save`.
These can be used later to set expected key times.
2. Add a test function `set_addkeytime` that takes a key, which
keytiming to update, a datetime in keytiming format, and a number
(seconds) to add, and sets the new time in the given keytime
parameter of the given key. This is used to set the expected key
times.
3. Split `check_keys` in `check_keys` and `check_keytimes`. First we
need to find the keyfile before we can check the keytimes.
We need to retrieve the creation date (and sometimes other
keytimes) to determine the other expected key times.
4. Add helper functions to set the expected key times per policy.
This avoids lots of duplication.
Check for keytimes for the first test cases (all that do not cover
rollovers).
After removing dnssec-settime calls that set key rollover
relationship, we can adjust the counts in test output filenames.
Also fix a couple of more wrong counts in output filenames.
Using dnssec-setttime after dnssec-keygen in the kasp system test
can lead to off by one second failures, so reduce the usage of
dnssec-settime in the setup scripts. This commit deals with
setting the key rollover relationship (predecessor/successor).
In the kasp system test, we are going to set the keytimes on
dnssec-keygen so we can test them against the key creation time.
This prevents off by one second in the test, something that can
happen if you set those times with dnssec-settime after
dnssec-keygen.
Also fix some test output filenames.
While kasp relies on key states to determine when a key needs to
be published or be used for signing, the keytimes are used by
operators to get some expectation of key publication and usage.
Update the code such that these keytimes are set appropriately.
That means:
- Print "PublishCDS" and "DeleteCDS" times in the state files.
- The keymgr sets the "Removed" and "PublishCDS" times and derives
those from the dnssec-policy.
- Tweak setting of the "Retired" time, when retiring keys, only
update the time to now when the retire time is not yet set, or is
in the future.
This also fixes a bug in "keymgr_transition_time" where we may wait
too long before zone signatrues become omnipresent or hidden. Not
only can we skip waiting the sign delay Dsgn if there is no
predecessor, we can also skip it if there is no successor.
Finally, this commit moves setting the lifetime, reducing two calls
to one.
For testing purposes mainly, we want to allow set keytimings on
generated keys, such that we don't have to "keygen/settime" which
can result in one second off times.
Certain rules of the BIND development process are not codified anywhere
and/or are used inconsistently. In an attempt to improve this
situation, add a GitLab CI job which uses Danger Python to add comments
to merge requests when certain expectations are not met. Two categories
of feedback are used, only one of which - fail() - causes the GitLab CI
job to fail. Exclude dangerfile.py from Python QA checks as the way the
contents of that file are evaluated triggers a lot of Flake8 and PyLint
warnings.
