This commit increases the idle TCP timeout to let the DoH quota system
test pass on some platforms (namely FreeBSD 11). It turned out to run
slow enough on the CI under load for the idle TCP timeout to kick in.
This commit refactors the DoH quota system test to make it more
reliable.
The test tries to establish dummy TCP connections to stress the quota
one by one instead of in bulk until the BIND instance cannot answer
queries anymore. This design is better because the test itself does
not need to be aware of the actual quota size.
The support for stat.pl's --restart option was incomplete in run.sh.
This change makes sure it's handled properly and that named.run file is
not being removed by clean.sh when the --restart option is used.
When named failed to start and produced core dump, the core file wasn't
processed by GDB because of run.sh script exiting immediately. This
remedies the limitation, simplifies the surrounding code, and makes the
script shellcheck clean.
The system tests stress out the DoH quota by opening many TCP
connections and then running dig instances against the "overloaded"
server to perform some queries. The processes cannot make any
resolutions because the quota is exceeded. Then the opened connections
are getting closed in random order allowing the queries to proceed.
This commit makes number of concurrent HTTP/2 streams per connection
configurable as a mean to fight DDoS attacks. As soon as the limit is
reached, BIND terminates the whole session.
The commit adds a global configuration
option (http-streams-per-connection) which can be overridden in an
http <name> {...} statement like follows:
http local-http-server {
...
streams-per-connection 100;
...
};
For now the default value is 100, which should be enough (e.g. NGINX
uses 128, but it is a full-featured WEB-server). When using lower
numbers (e.g. ~70), it is possible to hit the limit with
e.g. flamethrower.
This commit adds support for http-listener-clients global options as
well as ability to override the default in an HTTP server description,
like:
http local-http-server {
...
listener-clients 100;
...
};
This way we have ability to specify per-listener active connections
quota globally and then override it when required. This is exactly
what AT&T requested us: they wanted a functionality to specify quota
globally and then override it for specific IPs. This change
functionality makes such a configuration possible.
It makes sense: for example, one could have different quotas for
internal and external clients. Or, for example, one could use BIND's
internal ability to serve encrypted DoH with some sane quota value for
internal clients, while having un-encrypted DoH listener without quota
to put BIND behind a load balancer doing TLS offloading for external
clients.
Moreover, the code no more shares the quota with TCP, which makes
little sense anyway (see tcp-clients option), because of the nature of
interaction of DoH clients: they tend to keep idle opened connections
for longer periods of time, preventing the TCP and TLS client from
being served. Thus, the need to have a separate, generally larger,
quota for them.
Also, the change makes any option within "http <name> { ... };"
statement optional, making it easier to override only required default
options.
By default, the DoH connections are limited to 300 per listener. I
hope that it is a good initial guesstimate.
This commit adds the code (and some tests) which allows verifying
validity of HTTP paths both in incoming HTTP requests and in BIND's
configuration file.
Extend the "chain" system test with AUTHORITY section checks for signed,
secure delegations. This complements the checks for signed, insecure
delegations added by commit 26ec4b9a89.
Extend the existing AUTHORITY section checks for signed, insecure
delegations to ensure nonexistence of DS RRsets in such responses.
Adjust comments accordingly.
Ensure dig failures cause the "chain" system test to fail.
Add tests to the nsupdate system test to make sure that CDS and/or
CDNSKEY that match an algorithm in the DNSKEY RRset are allowed. Also
add tests that updates are rejected if the algorithm does not match.
Remove the now redundant test cases from the dnssec system test.
Update the checkzone system test: Change the algorithm of the CDS and
CDNSKEY records so that the zone is still rejected.
As we don't set the thread affinity, the cpu test would consistently
fail. Disable it, but don't remove it as we might restore setting the
affinity in the future versions of BIND 9.
Current mempools are kind of hybrid structures - they serve two
purposes:
1. mempool with a lock is basically static sized allocator with
pre-allocated free items
2. mempool without a lock is a doubly-linked list of preallocated items
The first kind of usage could be easily replaced with jemalloc small
sized arena objects and thread-local caches.
The second usage not-so-much and we need to keep this (in
libdns:message.c) for performance reasons.
The ISC_MEM_DEBUGSIZE and ISC_MEM_DEBUGCTX did sanity checks on matching
size and memory context on the memory returned to the allocator. Those
will no longer needed when most of the allocator will be replaced with
jemalloc.
This commit adds two new autoconf options `--enable-doh` (enabled by
default) and `--with-libnghttp2` (mandatory when DoH is enabled).
When DoH support is disabled the library is not linked-in and support
for http(s) protocol is disabled in the netmgr, named and dig.
if a control channel listener was configured with more than one
key algorithm, message verification would be attempted with each
algorithm in turn. if the first key failed due to the wrong
signature length, the entire verification process was aborted,
rather than continuing on to try with another key.
The isc/platform.h header was left empty which things either already
moved to config.h or to appropriate headers. This is just the final
cleanup commit.
The last remaining defines needed for platforms without NAME_MAX and
PATH_MAX (I'm looking at you, GNU Hurd) were moved to isc/dir.h where
it's prevalently used.
The function 'private_type_record()' is now used in multiple system
setup scripts and should be moved to the common configuration script
conf.sh.common.
This code gathers DNSSEC keys from key files and from the DNSKEY RRset.
It is used for the 'rndc dnssec -status' command, but will also be
needed for "checkds". Turn it into a function.
Add a Pytest based system test for the 'checkds' feature. There is
one nameserver (ns9, because it should be started the latest) that
has configured several zones with dnssec-policy. The zones are set
in such a state that they are waiting for DS publication or DS
withdrawal.
Then several other name servers act as parent servers that either have
the DS for these published, or not. Also one server in the mix is
to test a badly configured parental-agent.
There are tests for DS publication, DS publication error handling,
DS withdrawal and DS withdrawal error handling.
The tests ensures that the zone is DNSSEC valid, and that the
DSPublish/DSRemoved key metadata is set (or not in case of the error
handling).
It does not test if the rollover continues, this is already tested in
the kasp system test (that uses 'rndc -dnssec checkds' to set the
DSPublish/DSRemoved key metadata).
Add checks for "parental-agents" configuration, checking for the option
being at wrong type of zone (only allowed for primaries and
secondaries), duplicate definitions, duplicate references, and
undefined parental clauses (the name referenced in the zone clause
does not have a matching "parental-agent" clause).
When performing the 'setnsec3param' task, zones that are not loaded will have
their task rescheduled. We should do this only if the zone load is still
pending, this prevents zones that failed to load get stuck in a busy wait and
causing a hang on shutdown.
Add a zone to the configuration file that uses NSEC3 with dnssec-policy
and fails to load. This will cause setnsec3param to go into a busy wait
and will cause a hang on shutdown.
The Makefile.tests was modifying global AM_CFLAGS and LDADD and could
accidentally pull /usr/include to be listed before the internal
libraries, which is known to cause problems if the headers from the
previous version of BIND 9 has been installed on the build machine.
