In the code that rdataset_setownercase() and rdataset_getownercase() we
now use tolower()/toupper()/isupper() functions appropriately instead of
rolling our own code.
When locking key files for a zone, we iterate over all the views and
lock a mutex inside the zone structure. However, if we envounter an
in-view zone, we will try to lock the key files twice, one time for
the home view and one time for the in-view view. This will lead to
a deadlock because one thread is trying to get the same lock twice.
When "max-cache-size" is changed to "unlimited" (or "0") for a running
named instance (using "rndc reconfig"), the hash table size limit for
each affected cache DB is not reset to the maximum possible value,
preventing those hash tables from being allowed to grow as a result of
new nodes being added.
Extend dns_rbt_adjusthashsize() to interpret "size" set to 0 as a signal
to remove any previously imposed limits on the hash table size. Adjust
API documentation for dns_db_adjusthashsize() accordingly. Move the
call to dns_db_adjusthashsize() from dns_cache_setcachesize() so that it
also happens when "size" is set to 0.
Upon creation, each dns_rbt_t structure has its "maxhashbits" field
initialized to the value of the RBT_HASH_MAX_BITS preprocessor macro,
i.e. 32. When the dns_rbt_adjusthashsize() function is called for the
first time for a given RBT (for cache RBTs, this happens when they are
first created, i.e. upon named startup), it lowers the value of the
"maxhashbits" field to the number of bits required to index the
requested number of hash table slots. When a larger hash table size is
subsequently requested, the value of the "maxhashbits" field should be
increased accordingly, up to RBT_HASH_MAX_BITS. However, the loop in
the rehash_bits() function currently ensures that the number of bits
necessary to index the resized hash table will not be larger than
rbt->maxhashbits instead of RBT_HASH_MAX_BITS, preventing the hash table
from being grown once the "maxhashbits" field of a given dns_rbt_t
structure is set to any value lower than RBT_HASH_MAX_BITS.
Fix by tweaking the loop guard condition in the rehash_bits() function
so that it compares the new number of bits used for indexing the hash
table against RBT_HASH_MAX_BITS rather than rbt->maxhashbits.
Instead of checking the value of the variable modified two lines earlier
(the number of SOA records present at the apex of the old version of the
zone), one of the RUNTIME_CHECK() assertions in zone_postload() checks
the number of SOA records present at the apex of the new version of the
zone, which is already checked before. Fix the assertion by making it
check the correct variable.
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.
When named restarts, it will examine signed zones and checks if the
current denial of existence strategy matches the dnssec-policy. If not,
it will schedule to create a new NSEC(3) chain.
However, on startup the zone database may not be read yet, fooling
BIND that the denial of existence chain needs to be created. This
results in a replacement of the previous NSEC(3) chain.
Change the code such that if the NSEC3PARAM lookup failed (the result
did not return in ISC_R_SUCCESS or ISC_R_NOTFOUND), we will try
again later. The nsec3param structure has additional variables to
signal if the lookup is postponed. We also need to save the signal
if an explicit resalt was requested.
In addition to the two added boolean variables, we add a variable to
store the NSEC3PARAM rdata. This may have a yet to be determined salt
value. We can't create the private data yet because there may be a
mismatch in salt length and the NULL salt value.
When we rewrote the zone dumping to use the separate threadpool, the
dumping would acquire the read lock for the whole time the zone dumping
process is dumping the zone.
When combined with incoming IXFR that tries to acquire the write lock on
the same rwlock, we would end up blocking all the other readers.
In this commit, we pause the dbiterator every time we get next record
and before start dumping it to the disk.
Add a call to posix_fadvise() to indicate to the kernel, that `named`
won't be needing the dumped zone files any time soon with:
* POSIX_FADV_DONTNEED - The specified data will not be accessed in the
near future.
Notes:
POSIX_FADV_DONTNEED attempts to free cached pages associated with the
specified region. This is useful, for example, while streaming large
files. A program may periodically request the kernel to free cached
data that has already been used, so that more useful cached pages are
not discarded instead.
Previously, dumping the zones to the files were quantized, so it doesn't
slow down network IO processing. With the introduction of network
manager asynchronous threadpools, we can move the IO intensive work to
use that API and we don't have to quantize the work anymore as it the
file IO won't block anything except other zone dumping processes.
Rather than having an expensive 'expired' (fka 'stale_ttl') in the
rdataset structure, that is only used to be printed in a comment on
ancient RRsets, reuse the TTL field of the RRset.
Commit a83c8cb0af updated masterdump so
that stale records in "rndc dumpdb" output no longer shows 0 TTLs. In
this commit we change the name of the `rdataset->stale_ttl` field to
`rdataset->expired` to make its purpose clearer, and set it to zero in
cases where it's unused.
Add 'rbtdb->serve_stale_ttl' to various checks so that stale records
are not purged from the cache when they've been stale for RBTDB_VIRTUAL
(300) seconds.
Increment 'ns_statscounter_usedstale' when a stale answer is used.
Note: There was a question of whether 'overmem_purge' should be
purging ancient records, instead of stale ones. It is left as purging
stale records, since stale records could take up the majority of the
cache.

configuring with --enable-mutex-atomics flagged these incorrectly
initialised variables on systems where pthread_mutex_init doesn't
just zero out the structure.
The isc_nmiface_t type was holding just a single isc_sockaddr_t,
so we got rid of the datatype and use plain isc_sockaddr_t in place
where isc_nmiface_t was used before. This means less type-casting and
shorter path to access isc_sockaddr_t members.
At the same time, instead of keeping the reference to the isc_sockaddr_t
that was passed to us when we start listening, we will keep a local
copy. This prevents the data race on destruction of the ns_interface_t
objects where pending nmsockets could reference the sockaddr of already
destroyed ns_interface_t object.
* dns_journal_next() leaves the read point in the journal after the
transaction header so journal_seek() should be inside the loop.
* we need to recover from transaction header inconsistencies
Additionally when correcting for <size, serial0, serial1, 0> the
correct consistency check is isc_serial_gt() rather than
isc_serial_ge(). All instances updated.
According to the measurements (recorded on GL!5085), the fillcount of 2
for namepool and fillcount of 4 for rdspool can fit 99.99% of request
for tested scenarios.
This was discovered by perf recording the single second recursive test
using flamethrower where the initial malloc lit up like a flare.
Previously, as a way of reducing the contention between threads a
clientmgr object would be created for each interface/IP address.
We tasks being more strictly bound to netmgr workers, this is no longer
needed and we can just create clientmgr object per worker queue (ncpus).
Each clientmgr object than would have a single task and single memory
context.
Similarly, the resolver code would create hundreds of memory contexts
just on the resolver setup. The contention will be reduced directly in
the allocator, so for now just attach to the view memory instead of
creating separate memory context for each bucket.
dns_name_copy() has been replaced nearly everywhere with
dns_name_copynf(). this commit changes the last two uses of
the original function. afterward, we can remove the old
dns_name_copy() implementation, and replace it with _copynf().
dns_message_gettempname() returns an initialized name with a dedicated
buffer, associated with a dns_fixedname object. Using dns_name_copynf()
to write a name into this object will actually copy the name data
from a source name. dns_name_clone() merely points target->ndata to
source->ndata, so it is faster, but it can lead to a use-after-free if
the source is freed before the target object is released via
dns_message_puttempname().
In a few places, clone was being used where copynf should have been;
this is now fixed.
As a side note, no memory was lost, because the ndata buffer used in
the dns_fixedname_t is internal to the structure, and is freed when
the dns_fixedname_t is freed regardless of the .ndata contents.
The last rdataset_getownercase() left it in a state where the code was
mix of microoptimizations (manual loop unrolling, complicated bitshifts)
with a code that would always rewrite the character even if it stayed
the same after transformation.
This commit makes sure that we modify only the characters that actually
need to change, removes the manual loop unrolling, and replaces the
weird bit arithmetics with a simple shift and bit-and.
dns_message_gettempname() now returns a pointer to an initialized
name associated with a dns_fixedname_t object. it is no longer
necessary to allocate a buffer for temporary names associated with
the message object.
This function has never been used since it was added to the source tree
by commit 686b27bfd3 back in 1999. As
the dns_zoneflg_t type is only defined in lib/dns/zone.c, no function
external to that file would be able to use dns_zone_setflag() properly
anyway - the DNS_ZONE_SETFLAG() and DNS_ZONE_CLRFLAG() macros should be
used instead. Zone options that can be set from outside zone.c are set
using dns_zone_setoption().
if dns_updatemethod_date is used do that the returned method is only
set to dns_updatemethod_increment if the new serial does not encode
the current day (YYYYMMDDXX).

all zone loading tasks have the privileged flag, but we only want
them to run as privileged tasks when the server is being initialized;
if we privilege them the rest of the time, the server may hang for a
long time after a reload/reconfig. so now we call isc_taskmgr_setmode()
to turn privileged execution mode on or off in the task manager.
isc_task_privileged() returns true if the task's privilege flag is
set *and* the taskmgr is in privileged execution mode. this is used
to determine in which netmgr event queue the task should be run.
With taskmgr running on top of netmgr, the ordering of how the tasks and
netmgr shutdown interacts was wrong as previously isc_taskmgr_destroy()
was waiting until all tasks were properly shutdown and detached. This
responsibility was moved to netmgr, so we now need to do the following:
1. shutdown all the tasks - this schedules all shutdown events onto
the netmgr queue
2. shutdown the netmgr - this also makes sure all the tasks and
events are properly executed
3. Shutdown the taskmgr - this now waits for all the tasks to finish
running before returning
4. Shutdown the netmgr - this call waits for all the netmgr netievents
to finish before returning
This solves the race when the taskmgr object would be destroyed before
all the tasks were finished running in the netmgr loops.
Previously, netmgr, taskmgr, timermgr and socketmgr all had their own
isc_<*>mgr_create() and isc_<*>mgr_destroy() functions. The new
isc_managers_create() and isc_managers_destroy() fold all four into a
single function and makes sure the objects are created and destroy in
correct order.
Especially now, when taskmgr runs on top of netmgr, the correct order is
important and when the code was duplicated at many places it's easy to
make mistake.
The former isc_<*>mgr_create() and isc_<*>mgr_destroy() functions were
made private and a single call to isc_managers_create() and
isc_managers_destroy() is required at the program startup / shutdown.
When looking for key files, we could use isdigit rather than checking
if the character is within the range [0-9].
Use (unsigned char) cast to ensure the value is representable in the
unsigned char type (as suggested by the isdigit manpage).
Change " & 0xff" occurrences to the recommended (unsigned char) type
cast.
When we introduced "dnssec-policy insecure" we could have removed the
'strcmp' check for "none", because if it was set to "none", the 'kasp'
variable would have been set to NULL.
BIND 9 is smart about when to sign with what key. If a key is offline,
BIND will delete the old signature anyway if there is another key to
sign the RRset with.
With KASP we don't want to fallback to the KSK if the ZSK is missing,
only for the SOA RRset. If the KSK is missing, but we do have a ZSK,
deleting the signature is fine. Otherwise it depends on if we use KASP
or not. Update the 'delsig_ok' function to reflect that.
When checking the current DNSSEC state against the policy, consider
offline keys. If we didn't found an active key, check if the key is
offline by checking the public key list. If there is a match in the
public key list (the key data is retrieved from the .key and the
.state files), treat the key as offline and don't create a successor
key for it.
The function 'dns_dnssec_keylistfromrdataset()' creates a keylist from
the DNSKEY RRset. If we attempt to read the private key, we also store
the key state. However, if the private key is offline, the key state
will not be stored. To fix this, first attempt to read the public key
file. If then reading the private key file fails, and we do have a
public key, add that to the keylist, with appropriate state. If we
also failed to read the public key file, add the DNSKEY to the keylist,
as we did before.
