DSCP has not been fully working since the network manager was
introduced in 9.16, and has been completely broken since 9.18.
This seems to have caused very few difficulties for anyone,
so we have now marked it as obsolete and removed the
implementation.
To ensure that old config files don't fail, the code to parse
dscp key-value pairs is still present, but a warning is logged
that the feature is obsolete and should not be used. Nothing is
done with configured values, and there is no longer any
range checking.
Prime the cache with the following records:
shortttl.cname.example. 1 IN CNAME longttl.target.example.
longttl.target.example. 600 IN A 10.53.0.2
Wait for the CNAME record to expire, disable the authoritative server,
and query 'shortttl.cname.example' again, expecting a stale answer.
This bug was masked in the tests because the `catz` test script did an
`rndc addzone` before an `rndc delzone`. The `addzone` autovivified
the NZF config, so `delzone` worked OK.
This commit swaps the order of two sections of the `catz` test script
so that it uses `delzone` before `addzone`, which provokes a crash
when `delzone` requires a non-NULL NZF config.
To fix the crash, we now try to remove the zone from the NZF config
only if it was dynamically added but not by a catalog zone.
Remove parsing the configuration options 'alt-transfer-source',
'alt-transfer-source-v6', and 'use-alt-transfer-source', and remove
the corresponding code that implements the feature.
Use the configured 'source' and 'source-v6' when initiating a zone
transfer, sending a notify, or when checking for the DS. Remove the
special code for using alternate transfer sources.
Update some system tests to use the new configuration and make sure
the tests still work.
Add a new way to configure the preferred source address when talking to
remote servers such as primaries and parental-agents. This will
eventually deprecate options such as 'parental-source',
'parental-source-v6', 'transfer-source', etc.
Example of the new configuration:
parental-agents "parents" port 5353 \
source 10.10.10.10 port 5354 dscp 54 \
source-v6 2001:db8::10 port 5355 dscp 55 {
10.10.10.11;
2001:db8::11;
};
The pre-defined test cases use named.$TESTCASE.conf naming convention,
where TESTCASE is a human readable name contaning actual word(s). The
autogenerated test cases' names always start with a number from 1 to 6.
bin/tests/system/rrsetorder/dig.out* files match a gitignore expression
present in bin/tests/system/.gitignore. Since these are meant to be
reference files that are compared to the files generated when the
"rrsetorder" system test is run, rename them to avoid listing tracked
files in .gitignore files.
The test expects a "connection timed out" message from DiG when it
experiences a timeout, while the current version of DiG prints just
a "timed out" message, like below:
;; communications error to 10.53.0.1#11314: timed out
;; communications error to 10.53.0.1#11314: timed out
;; communications error to 10.53.0.1#11314: timed out
; <<>> DiG 9.19.9-dev <<>> -p 11314 +tries +time +tcp +tries +time @10.53.0.1 dropedns. TXT
; (1 server found)
;; global options: +cmd
;; no servers could be reached
Change the expected string to match the current DiG output.
Use the '-F' switch for "grep" for matching a fixed string.
In order to have a common naming convention for system tests, rename the
only outlier "engine_pkcs11" to "enginepkcs11", which was the only
system test using an underscore in its name.
The only allowed word separators for system test names are either dash
or no separator.
It is better to use consistent file names to avoid issue with sorting
etc.
Using underscore in filenames as opposed to dash was chosen because it
seems more common in pytest/python to use underscore for filenames.
Also rename the bin/tests/system/timeouts/tests-tcp.py file to
bin/tests/system/timeouts/tests_tcp_timeouts.py to avoid pytest name
collision (there can't be two files named tests_tcp.py).
This introduces a Python dependency for running system tests. It is
needed in order to:
- write new test control scripts in Python
- gradually rewrite old Perl scripts into Python if needed
- eventually introduce pytest as the new test runner framework
This commit is not intended to be backported to 9.16.
Nothing from conf.sh.common is required to set these values. On the
contrary, a Python interpreter needs to be set in order to randomize the
algorithm set (which happens in conf.sh.common).
When testcrypto.sh is used as a standalone script, always use quiet mode
to avoid using undefined commands (such as echo_i) which require
inclusion of the entire conf.sh machinery.
This commit modifies the existing unit tests for TLS DNS and TCP DNS
in such a way that the new Stream DNS transport is used as it is
intended to be a drop-in replacement for these two transports.
The isc_buffer_reserve() would be passed a reference to the buffer
pointer, which was unnecessary as the pointer would never be changed
in the current implementation. Remove the extra dereference.
The dispatches are not thread-bound, and used freely between various
threads (see the dns_resolver and dns_request units for details).
This refactoring make sure that all non-const dns_dispatch_t and
dns_dispentry_t members are accessed under a lock, and both object now
track their internal state (NONE, CONNECTING, CONNECTED, CANCELED)
instead of guessing the state from the state of various struct members.
During the refactoring, the artificial limit DNS_DISPATCH_SOCKSQUOTA on
UDP sockets per dispatch was removed as the limiting needs to happen and
happens on in dns_resolver and limiting the number of UDP sockets
artificially in dispatch could lead to unpredictable behaviour in case
one dispatch has the limit exhausted by others are idle.
The TCP artificial limit of DNS_DISPATCH_MAXREQUESTS makes even less
sense as the TCP connections are only reused in the dns_request API
that's not a heavy user of the outgoing connections.
As a side note, the fact that UDP and TCP dispatch pretends to be same
thing, but in fact the connected UDP is handled from dns_dispentry_t and
dns_dispatch_t acts as a broker, but connected TCP is handled from
dns_dispatch_t and dns_dispatchmgr_t acts as a broker doesn't really
help the clarity of this unit.
This refactoring kept to API almost same - only dns_dispatch_cancel()
and dns_dispatch_done() were merged into dns_dispatch_done() as we need
to cancel active netmgr handles in any case to not leave dangling
connections around. The functions handling UDP and TCP have been mostly
split to their matching counterparts and the dns_dispatch_<function>
functions are now thing wrappers that call <udp|tcp>_dispatch_<function>
based on the socket type.
More debugging-level logging was added to the unit to accomodate for
this fact.
When the resolver was refactored, the statistics system test had to be
adjusted in c6b4d82557. Unfortunately,
this change had to be done because of an error in the resolver
refactoring where timeout would not retry next server, but keep trying
the same server. As we have now fixed this bug, revert the change to
the test back to the previous state.
Using a restored catalog zone excercised a use-after-free bug.
The test checks that the use-after-free bug is gone and is just
a reasonable behaviour check in its own right.
Prime the cache with the following records:
shortttl.cname.example. 1 IN CNAME longttl.target.example.
longttl.target.example. 600 IN A 10.53.0.2
Wait for the CNAME record to expire, disable the authoritative server,
and query 'shortttl.cname.example' again, expecting a stale answer.
While some of these tests are for DoT which doesn't require nghttp2,
the server configs won't allow the server to start without nghttp2
support during compile time.
It might be possible to split these tests into DoT and DoH and only
require nghttp2 for DoH tests, but since almost all of our CI jobs are
compiled with nghttp2, we wouldn't gain a lot of coverage, so it's
probably not worth the effort.
Avoid using the environment variables for feature detection and use the
feature-test utility instead.
Remove the obsolete environment variables from conf.sh, since they're no
longer used anywhere.
Previously, there were two different ways to detect feature support.
Either through an environment variable set by configure in conf.sh, or
using the feature-test utility.
It is more simple and consistent to have only one way of detecting the
feature support. Using the feature-test utility seems superior the the
environment variables set by configure.
The mechanism for associating a worker task to a database now
uses loops rather than tasks.
For this reason, the parameters to dns_cache_create() have been
updated to take a loop manager rather than a task manager.
The dns_adb unit has been refactored to be much simpler. Following
changes have been made:
1. Simplify the ADB to always allow GLUE and hints
There were only two places where dns_adb_createfind() was used - in
the dns_resolver unit where hints and GLUE addresses were ok, and in
the dns_zone where dns_adb_createfind() would be called without
DNS_ADBFIND_HINTOK and DNS_ADBFIND_GLUEOK set.
Simplify the logic by allowing hint and GLUE addresses when looking
up the nameserver addresses to notify. The difference is negligible
and would cause a difference in the notified addresses only when
there's mismatch between the parent and child addresses and we
haven't cached the child addresses yet.
2. Drop the namebuckets and entrybuckets
Formerly, the namebuckets and entrybuckets were used to reduced the
lock contention when accessing the double-linked lists stored in each
bucket. In the previous refactoring, the custom hashtable for the
buckets has been replaced with isc_ht/isc_hashmap, so only a single
item (mostly, see below) would end up in each bucket.
Removing the entrybuckets has been straightforward, the only matching
was done on the isc_sockaddr_t member of the dns_adbentry.
Removing the zonebuckets required GLUEOK and HINTOK bits to be
removed because the find could match entries with-or-without the bits
set, and creating a custom key that stores the
DNS_ADBFIND_STARTATZONE in the first byte of the key, so we can do a
straightforward lookup into the hashtable without traversing a list
that contains items with different flags.
3. Remove unassociated entries from ADB database
Previously, the adbentries could live in the ADB database even after
unlinking them from dns_adbnames. Such entries would show up as
"Unassociated entries" in the ADB dump. The benefit of keeping such
entries is little - the chance that we link such entry to a adbname
is small, and it's simpler to evict unlinked entries from the ADB
cache (and the hashtable) than create second LRU cleaning mechanism.
Unlinked ADB entries are now directly deleted from the hash
table (hashmap) upon destruction.
4. Cleanup expired entries from the hash table
When buckets were still in place, the code would keep the buckets
always allocated and never shrink the hash table (hashmap). With
proper reference counting in place, we can delete the adbnames from
the hash table and the LRU list.
5. Stop purging the names early when we hit the time limit
Because the LRU list is now time ordered, we can stop purging the
names when we find a first entry that doesn't fullfil our time-based
eviction criteria because no further entry on the LRU list will meet
the criteria.
Future work:
1. Lock contention
In this commit, the focus was on correctness of the data structure,
but in the future, the lock contention in the ADB database needs to
be addressed. Currently, we use simple mutex to lock the hash
tables, because we almost always need to use a write lock for
properly purging the hashtables. The ADB database needs to be
sharded (similar to the effect that buckets had in the past). Each
shard would contain own hashmap and own LRU list.
2. Time-based purging
The ADB names and entries stay intact when there are no lookups.
When we add separate shards, a timer needs to be added for time-based
cleaning in case there's no traffic hashing to the inactive shard.
3. Revisit the 30 minutes limit
The ADB cache is capped at 30 minutes. This needs to be revisited,
and at least the limit should be configurable (in both directions).
The system test should never attempt to start or stop any other server
than those that belong to that system test. Therefore, it is not
necessary to specify the system test name in function calls.
Additionally, this makes it possible to run the test inside a
differently named directory, as its name is automatically detected with
the $SYSTESTDIR variable. This enables running the system tests inside a
temporary directory.
Direct use of stop.pl was replaced with a more systematic approach to
use stop_servers helper function.
