removed the SDB databases in contrib/sdb as they hadn't been
maintained in some time, and were no longer able to link to named
without modification. also:
- cleaned up contrib/README, which still referred to contrib
subdirectores that were removed already, and linked to an obsolete URL.
- removed references to sdb in doc/misc/roadmap and doc/misc/sdb.
Ensure IXFR statistics are calculated correctly by dig and named, both
for incoming and outgoing transfers. Disable EDNS when using dig to
request an IXFR so that the same reference file can be used for testing
statistics calculated by both dig and named (dig uses EDNS by default
when sending transfer requests, which affects the number of bytes
transferred).
Ensure AXFR statistics are calculated correctly by dig and named, both
for incoming and outgoing transfers. Rather than employing a zone which
is already used in the "xfer" system test, create a new one whose AXFR
form spans multiple TCP messages. Disable EDNS when using dig to
request an AXFR so that the same reference file can be used for testing
statistics calculated by both dig and named (dig uses EDNS by default
when sending transfer requests, which affects the number of bytes
transferred).
dig retries a TCP query when a server closes the connection prematurely.
However, dig's exit code remains unaffected even if the second attempt
to get a response also fails with the same error for the same lookup,
which should not be the case. Ensure the exit code is updated
appropriately when a retry triggered by a TCP EOF condition fails.
Since following a delegation resets most fetch context state, address
marks (FCTX_ADDRINFO_MARK) set inside lib/dns/resolver.c are not
preserved when a delegation is followed. This is fine for full
recursive resolution but when named is configured with "forward first;"
and one of the specified forwarders times out, triggering a fallback to
full recursive resolution, that forwarder should no longer be consulted
at each delegation point subsequently reached within a given fetch
context.
Add a new badnstype_t enum value, badns_forwarder, and use it to mark a
forwarder as bad when it times out in a "forward first;" configuration.
Since the bad server list is not cleaned when a fetch context follows a
delegation, this prevents a forwarder from being queried again after
falling back to full recursive resolution. Yet, as each fetch context
maintains its own list of bad servers, this change does not cause a
forwarder timeout to prevent that forwarder from being used by other
fetch contexts.
- "hook" is now used only for hook points and hook actions
- the "hook" statement in named.conf is now "plugin"
- ns_module and ns_modlist are now ns_plugin and ns_plugins
- ns_module_load is renamed ns_plugin_register
- the mandatory functions in plugin modules (hook_register,
hook_check, hook_version, hook_destroy) have been renamed
- move hooks.h to public include directory
- ns_hooktable_init() initializes a hook table. if NULL is passed in, it
initializes the global hook table
- ns_hooktable_save() saves a pointer to the current global hook table.
- ns_hooktable_reset() replaces the global hook table with different
one
- ns_hook_add() adds hooks at specified hook points in a hook table (or
the global hook table if the specified table is NULL)
- load and unload functions support dlopen() of hook modules (this is
adapted from dyndb and not yet functional)
- began adding new hook points to query.c
