All our MSVS Project files share the same intermediate directory. We
know that this doesn't cause any problems, so we can just disable the
detection in the project files.
Example of the warning:
warning MSB8028: The intermediate directory (.\Release\) contains files shared from another project (dnssectool.vcxproj). This can lead to incorrect clean and rebuild behavior.
MSVC documentation states: "This warning can be caused when a pointer to
a const or volatile item is assigned to a pointer not declared as
pointing to const or volatile."
Unfortunately, this happens when we dynamically allocate and deallocate
block of atomic variables using isc_mem_get and isc_mem_put.
Couple of examples:
lib\isc\hp.c(134): warning C4090: 'function': different 'volatile' qualifiers [C:\builds\isc-projects\bind9\lib\isc\win32\libisc.vcxproj]
lib\isc\hp.c(144): warning C4090: 'function': different 'volatile' qualifiers [C:\builds\isc-projects\bind9\lib\isc\win32\libisc.vcxproj]
lib\isc\stats.c(55): warning C4090: 'function': different 'volatile' qualifiers [C:\builds\isc-projects\bind9\lib\isc\win32\libisc.vcxproj]
lib\isc\stats.c(87): warning C4090: 'function': different 'volatile' qualifiers [C:\builds\isc-projects\bind9\lib\isc\win32\libisc.vcxproj]
The InterlockedOr8() and InterlockedAnd8() first argument was cast
to (atomic_int_fast8_t) instead of (atomic_int_fast8_t *), this was
reported by MSVC as:
warning C4024: '_InterlockedOr8': different types for formal and actual parameter 1
warning C4024: '_InterlockedAnd8': different types for formal and actual parameter 1
Our vcxproj files set the WarningLevel to Level3, which is too verbose
for a code that needs to be portable. That basically leads to ignoring
all the errors that MSVC produces. This commits downgrades the
WarningLevel to Level1 and enables treating warnings as errors for
Release builds. For the Debug builds the WarningLevel got upgraded to
Level4, and treating warnings as errors is explicitly disabled.
We should eventually make the code clean of all MSVC warnings, but it's
a long way to go for Level4, so it's more reasonable to start at Level1.
For reference[1], these are the warning levels as described by MSVC
documentation:
* /W0 suppresses all warnings. It's equivalent to /w.
* /W1 displays level 1 (severe) warnings. /W1 is the default setting
in the command-line compiler.
* /W2 displays level 1 and level 2 (significant) warnings.
* /W3 displays level 1, level 2, and level 3 (production quality)
warnings. /W3 is the default setting in the IDE.
* /W4 displays level 1, level 2, and level 3 warnings, and all level 4
(informational) warnings that aren't off by default. We recommend
that you use this option to provide lint-like warnings. For a new
project, it may be best to use /W4 in all compilations. This option
helps ensure the fewest possible hard-to-find code defects.
* /Wall displays all warnings displayed by /W4 and all other warnings
that /W4 doesn't include — for example, warnings that are off by
default.
* /WX treats all compiler warnings as errors. For a new project, it
may be best to use /WX in all compilations; resolving all warnings
ensures the fewest possible hard-to-find code defects.

We introduce a isc_quota_attach_cb function - if ISC_R_QUOTA is returned
at the time the function is called, then a callback will be called when
there's quota available (with quota already attached). The callbacks are
organized as a LIFO queue in the quota structure.
It's needed for TCP client quota - with old networking code we had one
single place where tcp clients quota was processed so we could resume
accepting when the we had spare slots, but it's gone with netmgr - now
we need to notify the listener/accepter that there's quota available so
that it can resume accepting.
Remove unused isc_quota_force() function.
The isc_quote_reserve and isc_quota_release were used only internally
from the quota.c and the tests. We should not expose API we are not
using.
tcpdns used transport-specific functions to operate on the outer socket.
Use generic ones instead, and select the proper call in netmgr.c.
Make the missing functions (e.g. isc_nm_read) generic and add type-specific
calls (isc__nm_tcp_read). This is the preparation for netmgr TLS layer.
On Windows, C11 localtime_r() and gmtime_r() functions are not
available. While localtime() and gmtime() functions are already thread
safe because they use Thread Local Storage, it's quite ugly to #ifdef
around every localtime_r() and gmtime_r() usage to make the usage also
thread-safe on POSIX platforms.
The commit adds wrappers around Windows localtime_s() and gmtime_s()
functions.
NOTE: The implementation of localtime_s and gmtime_s in Microsoft CRT
are incompatible with the C standard since it has reversed parameter
order and errno_t return type.
The <isc/md.h> header directly included <openssl/evp.h> header which
enforced all users of the libisc library to explicitly list the include
path to OpenSSL and link with -lcrypto. By hiding the specific
implementation into the private namespace, we no longer enforce this.
In the long run, this might also allow us to switch cryptographic
library implementation without affecting the downstream users.
While making the isc_md_type_t type opaque, the API using the data type
was changed to use the pointer to isc_md_type_t instead of using the
type directly.
The two "functions" that isc/safe.h declared before were actually simple
defines to matching OpenSSL functions. The downside of the approach was
enforcing all users of the libisc library to explicitly list the include
path to OpenSSL and link with -lcrypto. By hiding the specific
implementation into the private namespace changing the defines into
simple functions, we no longer enforce this. In the long run, this
might also allow us to switch cryptographic library implementation
without affecting the downstream users.
We were using our own versions of isc_uv_{export,import} functions
for multithreaded TCP listeners. Upcoming libuv version will
contain proper uv_{export,import} functions - use them if they're
available.
this corrects some style glitches such as:
```
long_function_call(arg, arg2, arg3, arg4, arg5, "str"
"ing");
```
...by adjusting the penalties for breaking strings and call
parameter lists.
Also disable the semantic patch as the code needs tweaks here and there because
some destroy functions might not destroy the object and return early if the
object is still in use.
In system tests on Windows tool's local port can sometimes clash with
'named'. On Unix the system is poked for the minimal local port,
otherwise is set to 32768 as a sane minimum. For Windows we don't
poke but set a hardcoded limit; this change aligns the limit with
Unix and changes it to 32768.
hp implementation requires an object for each thread accessing
a hazard pointer. previous implementation had a hardcoded
HP_MAX_THREAD value of 128, which failed on machines with lots of
CPU cores (named uses 3n threads). We make isc__hp_max_threads
configurable at startup, with the value set to 4*named_g_cpus.
It's also important for this value not to be too big as we do
linear searches on a list.
- the socket stat counters have been moved from socket.h to stats.h.
- isc_nm_t now attaches to the same stats counter group as
isc_socketmgr_t, so that both managers can increment the same
set of statistics
- isc__nmsocket_init() now takes an interface as a paramter so that
the address family can be determined when initializing the socket.
- based on the address family and socket type, a group of statistics
counters will be associated with the socket - for example, UDP4Active
with IPv4 UDP sockets and TCP6Active with IPv6 TCP sockets. note
that no counters are currently associated with TCPDNS sockets; those
stats will be handled by the underlying TCP socket.
- the counters are not actually used by netmgr sockets yet; counter
increment and decrement calls will be added in a later commit.
These functions can be used to pass a uv handle between threads in a
safe manner. The other option is to use uv_pipe and pass the uv_handle
via IPC, which is way more complex. uv_export() and uv_import() functions
existed in libuv at some point but were removed later. This code is
based on the original removed code.
The Windows version of the code uses two functions internal to libuv;
a patch for libuv is attached for exporting these functions.
For BIND 9.16+, TLS aware compiler is required, and using
ISC_THREAD_LOCAL is preferred way of using Thread Local Storage. The
isc_thread_key API is no longer used anywhere and hence was removed from
BIND 9.
The new ISC_THREAD_LOCAL macro unifies usage of platform dependent
Thread Local Storage definition thread_local vs __thread vs
__declspec(thread) to a single macro.
The commit also unifies the required level of support for TLS as for
some parts of the code it was mandatory and for some parts of the code
it wasn't.
- restore support for tcp-initial-timeout, tcp-idle-timeout,
tcp-keepalive-timeout and tcp-advertised-timeout configuration
options, which were ineffective previously.
When a task manager is created, we can now specify an `isc_nm`
object to associate with it; thereafter when the task manager is
placed into exclusive mode, the network manager will be paused.
This is a replacement for the existing isc_socket and isc_socketmgr
implementation. It uses libuv for asynchronous network communication;
"networker" objects will be distributed across worker threads reading
incoming packets and sending them for processing.
UDP listener sockets automatically create an array of "child" sockets
so each worker can listen separately.
TCP sockets are shared amongst worker threads.
A TCPDNS socket is a wrapper around a TCP socket, which handles the
the two-byte length field at the beginning of DNS messages over TCP.
(Other wrapper socket types can be implemented in the future to handle
DNS over TLS, DNS over HTTPS, etc.)
Until now, the build process for BIND on Windows involved upgrading the
solution file to the version of Visual Studio used on the build host.
Unfortunately, the executable used for that (devenv.exe) is not part of
Visual Studio Build Tools and thus there is no clean way to make that
executable part of a Windows Server container.
Luckily, the solution upgrade process boils down to just adding XML tags
to Visual Studio project files and modifying certain XML attributes - in
files which we pregenerate anyway using win32utils/Configure. Thus,
extend win32utils/Configure with three new command line parameters that
enable it to mimic what "devenv.exe bind9.sln /upgrade" does. This
makes the devenv.exe build step redundant and thus facilitates building
BIND in Windows Server containers.
