memory conditions. Without this fix a DNS cache DB or
ADB could incorrectly stay in an over memory state,
effectively refusing further caching, which
subsequently made a BIND 9 caching server unworkable.
This fix prevents this problem from happening by
polling the state of the memory context, rather than
making a copy of the state, which appeared to cause
a race. This is a "workaround" in that it doesn't
solve the possible race per se, but several experiments
proved this change solves the symptom. Also, the
polling overhead hasn't been reported to be an issue.
This bug should only affect a caching server that
specifies a finite max-cache-size. It's also quite
likely that the bug happens only when enabling threads,
but it's not confirmed yet. [RT #21818]
support for addzone/delzone feature (see change
#2930). Removed "new-zone-file" option, replaced
with "allow-new-zones (yes|no)". The new-zone-file
for each view is now created automatically, with
a filename generated from a hash of the view name.
It is no longer necessary to "include" the
new-zone-file in named.conf; this happens
automatically. Zones that were not added via
"rndc addzone" can no longer be removed with
"rndc delzone". [RT #19447]
because it would cause inifinite attempts of RRSIG
queries. This is an urgent care fix; we'll
revisit the issue and complete the fix later.
