The old name "common" clashes with the convention of system test
directory naming. It appears as a system test directory, but it only
contains helper files.
To reduce confusion and to allow automatic detection of issues with
possibly missing test files, rename the helper directory to "_common".
The leading underscore indicates the directory is different and the its
name can no longer be confused with regular system test directories.
The changes were mostly done with sed:
find . -name '*.sh' | xargs sed -i 's/`\([^`]*\)`/$(\1)/g'
There have been a few manual changes where the regex wasn't sufficient
(e.g. backslashes inside the `...`) or wrong (`...` referring to docs or
in comments).
Change the way arithmetic operations are performed in system test shell
scripts from using `expr` to `$(())`. This ensures that updating the
variable won't end up with a non-zero exit code, which would case the
script to exit prematurely when `set -e` is in effect.
The following replacements were performed using sed in all text files
(git grep -Il '' | xargs sed -i):
s/status=`expr $status + $ret`/status=$((status + ret))/g
s/n=`expr $n + 1`/n=$((n + 1))/g
s/t=`expr $t + 1`/t=$((t + 1))/g
s/status=`expr $status + 1`/status=$((status + 1))/g
s/try=`expr $try + 1`/try=$((try + 1))/g
Ensure all shell system tests are executed with the errexit option set.
This prevents unchecked return codes from commands in the test from
interfering with the tests, since any failures need to be handled
explicitly.
This commit converts the license handling to adhere to the REUSE
specification. It specifically:
1. Adds used licnses to LICENSES/ directory
2. Add "isc" template for adding the copyright boilerplate
3. Changes all source files to include copyright and SPDX license
header, this includes all the C sources, documentation, zone files,
configuration files. There are notes in the doc/dev/copyrights file
on how to add correct headers to the new files.
4. Handle the rest that can't be modified via .reuse/dep5 file. The
binary (or otherwise unmodifiable) files could have license places
next to them in <foo>.license file, but this would lead to cluttered
repository and most of the files handled in the .reuse/dep5 file are
system test files.
The $SYSTEMTESTTOP shell variable if often set to .. in various shell
scripts inside bin/tests/system/, but most of the time it is only
used one line later, while sourcing conf.sh. This hardly improves
code readability.
$SYSTEMTESTTOP is also used for the purpose of referencing
scripts/files living in bin/tests/system/, but given that the
variable is always set to a short, relative path, we can drop it and
replace all of its occurrences with the relative path without adversely
affecting code readability.
The rewrite of BIND 9 build system is a large work and cannot be reasonable
split into separate merge requests. Addition of the automake has a positive
effect on the readability and maintainability of the build system as it is more
declarative, it allows conditional and we are able to drop all of the custom
make code that BIND 9 developed over the years to overcome the deficiencies of
autoconf + custom Makefile.in files.
This squashed commit contains following changes:
- conversion (or rather fresh rewrite) of all Makefile.in files to Makefile.am
by using automake
- the libtool is now properly integrated with automake (the way we used it
was rather hackish as the only official way how to use libtool is via
automake
- the dynamic module loading was rewritten from a custom patchwork to libtool's
libltdl (which includes the patchwork to support module loading on different
systems internally)
- conversion of the unit test executor from kyua to automake parallel driver
- conversion of the system test executor from custom make/shell to automake
parallel driver
- The GSSAPI has been refactored, the custom SPNEGO on the basis that
all major KRB5/GSSAPI (mit-krb5, heimdal and Windows) implementations
support SPNEGO mechanism.
- The various defunct tests from bin/tests have been removed:
bin/tests/optional and bin/tests/pkcs11
- The text files generated from the MD files have been removed, the
MarkDown has been designed to be readable by both humans and computers
- The xsl header is now generated by a simple sed command instead of
perl helper
- The <irs/platform.h> header has been removed
- cleanups of configure.ac script to make it more simpler, addition of multiple
macros (there's still work to be done though)
- the tarball can now be prepared with `make dist`
- the system tests are partially able to run in oot build
Here's a list of unfinished work that needs to be completed in subsequent merge
requests:
- `make distcheck` doesn't yet work (because of system tests oot run is not yet
finished)
- documentation is not yet built, there's a different merge request with docbook
to sphinx-build rst conversion that needs to be rebased and adapted on top of
the automake
- msvc build is non functional yet and we need to decide whether we will just
cross-compile bind9 using mingw-w64 or fix the msvc build
- contributed dlz modules are not included neither in the autoconf nor automake
- add CHANGES note
- update copyrights and license headers
- add -j to the make commands in .gitlab-ci.yml to take
advantage of parallelization in the gitlab CI process
4224. [func] Added support for "dyndb", a new interface for loading
zone data from an external database, developed by
Red Hat for the FreeIPA project.
DynDB drivers fully implement the BIND database
API, and are capable of significantly better
performance and functionality than DLZ drivers,
while taking advantage of advanced database
features not available in BIND such as multi-master
replication.
Thanks to Adam Tkac and Petr Spacek of Red Hat.
[RT #35271]
3821. [contrib] Added a new "mysqldyn" DLZ module with dynamic
update and transaction support. Thanks to Marty
Lee for the contribution. [RT #35656]
3820. [func] The DLZ API doesn't pass the database version to
the lookup() function; this can cause DLZ modules
that allow dynamic updates to mishandle prerequisite
checks. This has been corrected by adding a
'dbversion' field to the dns_clientinfo_t
structure. [RT #35656]
- handle malformed answers from DLZ better:
- handle dlz_lookup errors better:
when the first lookup of a name returns an unexpected failure code,
we return it to the caller rather than continuing on to look up
the wildcard. we now only continue processing if the return from
the first lookup was either ISC_R_SUCCESS or ISC_R_NOTFOUND.
- improved backward-compatibility for dlz_version:
added a DLZ_DLOPEN_AGE value indicating how many versions
back from the current DLZ_DLOPEN_VERSION named will support
3434. [bug] Pass client info to the DLZ findzone() entry
point in addition to lookup(). This makes it
possible for a database to answer differently
whether it's authoritative for a name depending
on the address of the client. [RT #31775]
3432. [func] Multiple DLZ databases can now be configured.
DLZ databases are searched in the order configured,
unless set to "search no", in which case a
zone can be configured to be retrieved from a
particular DLZ database by using a "dlz <name>"
option in the zone statement. DLZ databases can
support type "master" and "redirect" zones.
[RT #27597]
- multiple DLZ's can be specified, including multiple DLZ's using
the same driver; e.g., two different back-ends both loaded by the
dlopen driver
- new "search" option can be specified in a DLZ indicating whether
this DLZ database should be searched for unknown zones. The
default is "yes". If "no", then the zone can only be found by
named if it's registered in the zone table, which happens if the
zone is configured for dynamic updates, or if "dlz <dlzname>" is
specified in the zone statement. (The latter functionality is
incomplete in this commit).

2988. [experimental] Added a "dlopen" DLZ driver, allowing the creation
of external DLZ drivers that can be loaded as
shared objects at runtime rather than linked with
named. Currently this is switched on via a
compile-time option, "configure --with-dlz-dlopen".
Note: the syntax for configuring DLZ zones
is likely to be refined in future releases.

2987. [func] Improve ease of configuring TKEY/GSS updates by
adding a "tkey-gssapi-keytab" option. If set,
updates will be allowed with any key matching
a principal in the specified keytab file.
"tkey-gssapi-credential" is no longer required
and is expected to be deprecated. (Contributed
