The map masterfile-format is very fragile and it needs API bump every
time a RBTDB data structures changes. Also while testing it, we found
out that files larger than 2GB weren't loading and nobody noticed, and
loading many map files were also failing (subject to kernel limits).
Thus we are marking the masterfile-format type 'map' as deprecated and
to be removed in the next stable BIND 9 release.
"cache-file" was already documented as intended for testing
purposes only and not to be used, so we can remove it without
waiting. this commit marks the option as "ancient", and
removes all the documentation and implementing code, including
dns_cache_setfilename() and dns_cache_dump().
it also removes the documentation for the '-x cachefile`
parameter to named, which had already been removed, but the man
page was not updated at the time.
- when transfer-source(-v6), query-source(-v6), notify-source(-v6)
or parental-source(-v6) are specified with a port number, issue a
warning.
- when the port specified is the same as the DNS listener port (i.e.,
53, or whatever was specified as "port" in "options"), issue a fatal
error.
- check that "port" is in range. (previously this was only checked
by named, not by named-checkconf.)
- added checkconf tests.
- incidental fix: removed dead code in check.c:bind9_check_namedconf().
(note: if the DNS port is specified on the command line with "named -p",
that is not conveyed to libbind9, so these checks will not take it into
account.)
Previously, named would run with a configuration
where *-source-v6 (notify-source-v6, transfer-source-v6 and
query-source-v6) address and port could be simultaneously used for
listening. This is no longer true for BIND 9.16+ and the code that
would do interface adjustments would unexpectedly disable listening on
TCP for such interfaces.
This commit removes the code that would adjust listening interfaces
for addresses/ports configured in *-source-v6 option.
The native PKCS#11 support has been removed in favour of better
maintained, more performance and easier to use OpenSSL PKCS#11 engine
from the OpenSC project.
- fixed a size comparison using "signed int" that failed if the file
size was more than 2GB, since that was treated as a negative number.
- incidentally renamed deserialize32() to just deserialize(). we no
longer have separate 32 and 64 bit rbtdb implementations.
This commit fixes a regression introduced at
ea80bcc41c. Some options, which are
common to both DoH and DoT were mistakenly disabled for non-DoH
builds. That is a mistake, because DoH does not imply DoT and vice
versa. Not fixing this would make DoT functionality not accessible
without DoH.
This commit adds new function isc_nm_http_makeuri() which is supposed
to unify DoH URI construction throughout the codebase.
It handles IPv6 addresses, hostnames, and IPv6 addresses given as
hostnames properly, and replaces similar ad-hoc code in the codebase.
- removed unused functions
- changed some public functions to static that are never called
from outside client.c
- removed unused types and function prototypes
- renamed dns_client_destroy() to dns_client_detach()
The previous versions of BIND 9 exported its internal libraries so that
they can be used by third-party applications more easily. Certain
library functions were altered from specific BIND-only behavior to more
generic behavior when used by other applications.
This commit removes the function isc_lib_register() that was used by
external applications to enable the functionality.
this commit removes isc__nm_tcpdns_keepalive() and
isc__nm_tlsdns_keepalive(); keepalive for these protocols and
for TCP will now be set directly from isc_nmhandle_keepalive().
protocols that have an underlying TCP socket (i.e., TLS stream
and HTTP), now have protocol-specific routines, called by
isc_nmhandle_keeaplive(), to set the keepalive value on the
underlying socket.
previously, receiving a keepalive option had no effect on how
long named would keep the connection open; there was a place to
configure the keepalive timeout but it was never used. this commit
corrects that.
this also fixes an error in isc__nm_{tcp,tls}dns_keepalive()
in which the sense of a REQUIRE test was reversed; previously this
error had not been noticed because the functions were not being
used.
- fix some duplicated and out-of-order prototypes declared in
netmgr-int.h
- rename isc_nm_tcpdns_keepalive to isc__nm_tcpdns_keepalive as
it's for internal use
The removed function 'newchain(a, b)' was almost the same as calling
!chain_equal(a, b), varying only in the amount of data compared
in the non-fixed-length data portion of given chain nodes.
A third argument 'data_size' has been introduced into 'chain_equal'
function in order to allow it to know how many bytes to compare in the
variable-length data portion of the chain nodes.
A helper function 'chain_length(e)' has been introduced to allow
easy calculation of the total length of the non-fixed-length data part
of chain nodes.

This commit changes the DoH code in such a way that it makes no
assumptions regarding which headers are expected to be processed
first. In particular, the code expected the :method: pseudo-header to
be processed early, which might not be true.
Clear the key slots for dnssec-sign statistics for keys that are
removed. This way, the number of slots will stabilize to the maximum
key usage in a zone and will not grow every time a key rollover is
triggered.
We have introduced dnssec-sign statistics to the zone statistics. This
introduced an operational issue because when using zone-statistics
full, the memory usage was going through the roof. We fixed this by
by allocating just four key slots per zone. If a zone exceeds the
number of keys for example through a key rollover, the keys will be
rotated out on a FIFO basis.
This works for most cases, and fixes the immediate problem of high
memory usage, but if you sign your zone with many, many keys, or are
sign with a ZSK/KSK double algorithm strategy you may experience weird
statistics. A better strategy is to grow the number of key slots per
zone on key rollover events.
That is what this commit is doing: instead of rotating the four slots
to track sign statistics, named now grows the number of key slots
during a key rollover (or via some other method that introduces new
keys).
Add a new function to resize the number of counters in a statistics
counter structure. This will be needed when we keep track of DNSSEC
sign statistics and new keys are introduced due to a rollover.
Add a simple stats unit test that tests the existing library functions
isc_stats_ncounters, isc_stats_increment, isc_stats_decrement,
isc_stats_set, and isc_stats_update_if_greater.
After a reload, if the zone hasn't changed, this will log a
DNS_R_UNCHANGED error. This should not be at error level because it
happens on every reload.
Instead of disabling the fragmentation on the UDP sockets, we now
disable the Path MTU Discovery by setting IP(V6)_MTU_DISCOVER socket
option to IP_PMTUDISC_OMIT on Linux and disabling IP(V6)_DONTFRAG socket
option on FreeBSD. This option sets DF=0 in the IP header and also
ignores the Path MTU Discovery.
As additional mitigation on Linux, we recommend setting
net.ipv4.ip_no_pmtu_disc to Mode 3:
Mode 3 is a hardend pmtu discover mode. The kernel will only accept
fragmentation-needed errors if the underlying protocol can verify
them besides a plain socket lookup. Current protocols for which pmtu
events will be honored are TCP, SCTP and DCCP as they verify
e.g. the sequence number or the association. This mode should not be
enabled globally but is only intended to secure e.g. name servers in
namespaces where TCP path mtu must still work but path MTU
information of other protocols should be discarded. If enabled
globally this mode could break other protocols.
The client->rcode_override was originally created to force the server
to send SERVFAIL in some cases when it would normally have sent FORMERR.
More recently, it was used in a3ba95116e
commit (part of GL #2790) to force the sending of a TC=1 NOERROR
response, triggering a retry via TCP, when a UDP packet could not be
sent due to ISC_R_MAXSIZE.
This ran afoul of a pre-existing INSIST in ns_client_error() when
RRL was in use. the INSIST was based on the assumption that
ns_client_error() could never result in a non-error rcode. as
that assumption is no longer valid, the INSIST has been removed.
