Previously, an incremental hash table resizing was implemented for the
dns_rbt_t hash table implementation. Using that as a base, also
implement the incremental hash table resizing also for isc_ht API
hashtables:
1. During the resize, allocate the new hash table, but keep the old
table unchanged.
2. In each lookup, delete, or iterator operation, check both tables.
3. Perform insertion operations only in the new table.
4. At each insertion also move <r> elements from the old table to
the new table.
5. When all elements are removed from the old table, deallocate it.
To ensure that the old table is completely copied over before the new
table itself needs to be enlarged, it is necessary to increase the
size of the table by a factor of at least (<r> + 1)/<r> during resizing.
In our implementation <r> is equal to 1.
The downside of this approach is that the old table and the new table
could stay in memory for longer when there are no new insertions into
the hash table for prolonged periods of time as the incremental
rehashing happens only during the insertions.
When sock->closehandle_cb is set, we need to run nmhandle_detach_cb()
asynchronously to ensure correct order of multiple packets processing in
the isc__nm_process_sock_buffer(). When not run asynchronously, it
would cause:
a) out-of-order processing of the return codes from processbuffer();
b) stack growth because the next TCP DNS message read callback will
be called from within the current TCP DNS message read callback.
The sock->closehandle_cb is set to isc__nm_resume_processing() for TCP
sockets which calls isc__nm_process_sock_buffer(). If the read callback
(called from isc__nm_process_sock_buffer()->processbuffer()) doesn't
attach to the nmhandle (f.e. because it wants to drop the processing or
we send the response directly via uv_try_write()), the
isc__nm_resume_processing() (via .closehandle_cb) would call
isc__nm_process_sock_buffer() recursively.
The below shortened code path shows how the stack can grow:
1: ns__client_request(handle, ...);
2: isc_nm_tcpdns_sequential(handle);
3: ns_query_start(client, handle);
4: query_lookup(qctx);
5: query_send(qctcx->client);
6: isc__nmhandle_detach(&client->reqhandle);
7: nmhandle_detach_cb(&handle);
8: sock->closehandle_cb(sock); // isc__nm_resume_processing
9: isc__nm_process_sock_buffer(sock);
10: processbuffer(sock); // isc__nm_tcpdns_processbuffer
11: isc_nmhandle_attach(req->handle, &handle);
12: isc__nm_readcb(sock, req, ISC_R_SUCCESS);
13: isc__nm_async_readcb(NULL, ...);
14: uvreq->cb.recv(...); // ns__client_request
Instead, if 'sock->closehandle_cb' is set, we need to run detach the
handle asynchroniously in 'isc__nmhandle_detach', so that on line 8 in
the code flow above does not start this recursion. This ensures the
correct order when processing multiple packets in the function
'isc__nm_process_sock_buffer()' and prevents the stack growth.
When not run asynchronously, the out-of-order processing leaves the
first TCP socket open until all requests on the stream have been
processed.
If the pipelining is disabled on the TCP via `keep-response-order`
configuration option, named would keep the first socket in lingering
CLOSE_WAIT state when the client sends an incomplete packet and then
closes the connection from the client side.
Change the isc_interval_t implementation from separate data type and
separate implementation to be shim implementation on top of isc_time_t.
The distinction between isc_interval_t and isc_time_t has been kept
because they are semantically different - isc_interval_t is relative and
isc_time_t is absolute, but this allows isc_time_t and isc_interval_t to
be freely interchangeable, f.e. this:
isc_time_t *t1;
isc_interval_t *interval;
isc_time_t *t2;
isc_interval_set(interval, isc_time_seconds(t2), isc_time_nanoseconds(t2);;
isc_time_subtract(t1, interval, t2);
isc_interval_set(interval, isc_time_seconds(t2), isc_time_nanoseconds(t2));
to just:
isc_time_t *t1;
isc_interval_t *interval;
isc_time_t *t2;
isc_time_subtract(t1, t2, interval);
without introducing a whole set of new functions.
The isc_timer_reset() now works only with intervals for once timers.
This makes the API almost 1:1 compatible with the libuv timers making
the further refactoring possible.
There were two places where expires argument (absolute isc_time_t value)
was being used. Both places has been converted to use relative interval
argument in preparation of simplification and refactoring of isc_timer
API.
The isc_timer_create() function was a bit conflated. It could have been
used to create a timer and start it at the same time. As there was a
single place where this was done before (see the previous commit for
nta.c), this was cleaned up and the isc_timer_create() function was
changed to only create new timer.
In httpd.c, the send callback can directly call read callback without
calling isc_nm_resumeread(). When per-send timeout was added, this
could lead to use-after-free when shutting down the named.
Cleanup the way how we attach to .readhandle and .sendhandle, so there's
assurance that .readhandle will be always non-NULL when reading and
.sendhandle will be always non-NULL when sending.
Additionally, it was found that the implementation ignored the
"Connection: close" header and it worked only accidentally by closing
the connection after the first read from the TCP socket. This has been
also fixed.
Previously, the established TCP connections (both client and server)
would be gracefully closed waiting for the write timeout.
Don't wait for TCP connections to gracefully shutdown, but directly
reset them for faster shutdown.
Previously, there was a single per-socket write timer that would get
restarted for every new write. This turned out to be insufficient
because the other side could keep reseting the timer, and never reading
back the responses.
Change the single write timer to per-send timer which would in turn
reset the TCP connection on the first send timeout.
The C17 standard deprecated ATOMIC_VAR_INIT() macro (see [1]). Follow
the suite and remove the ATOMIC_VAR_INIT() usage in favor of simple
assignment of the value as this is what all supported stdatomic.h
implementations do anyway:
* MacOSX.plaform: #define ATOMIC_VAR_INIT(__v) {__v}
* Gcc stdatomic.h: #define ATOMIC_VAR_INIT(VALUE) (VALUE)

Previously, the function(s) in the commit subject could fail for various
reasons - mostly allocation failures, or other functions returning
different return code than ISC_R_SUCCESS. Now, the aforementioned
function(s) cannot ever fail and they would always return ISC_R_SUCCESS.
Change the function(s) to return void and remove the extra checks in
the code that uses them.

Previously the socket code would set the TCPv6 maximum segment size to
minimum value to prevent IP fragmentation for TCP. This was not yet
implemented for the network manager.
Implement network manager functions to set and use minimum MTU socket
option and set the TCP_MAXSEG socket option for both IPv4 and IPv6 and
use those to clamp the TCP maximum segment size for TCP, TCPDNS and
TLSDNS layers in the network manager to 1220 bytes, that is 1280 (IPv6
minimum link MTU) minus 40 (IPv6 fixed header) minus 20 (TCP fixed
header)
We already rely on a similar value for UDP to prevent IP fragmentation
and it make sense to use the same value for IPv4 and IPv6 because the
modern networks are required to support IPv6 packet sizes. If there's
need for small TCP segment values, the MTU on the interfaces needs to be
properly configured.
The IPV6_USE_MIN_MTU socket option directs the IP layer to limit the
IPv6 packet size to the minimum required supported MTU from the base
IPv6 specification, i.e. 1280 bytes. Many implementations of TCP
running over IPv6 neglect to check the IPV6_USE_MIN_MTU value when
performing MSS negotiation and when constructing a TCP segment despite
MSS being defined to be the MTU less the IP and TCP header sizes (60
bytes for IPv6). This leads to oversized IPv6 packets being sent
resulting in unintended Path Maximum Transport Unit Discovery (PMTUD)
being performed and to fragmented IPv6 packets being sent.
Add and use a function to set socket option to limit the MTU on IPv6
sockets to the minimum MTU (1280) both for UDP and TCP.
The current implementation of isc_queue uses Michael-Scott lock-free
queue that in turn uses hazard pointers. It was discovered that the way
we use the isc_queue, such complicated mechanism isn't really needed,
because most of the time, we either execute the work directly when on
nmthread (in case of UDP) or schedule the work from the matching
nmthreads.
Replace the current implementation of the isc_queue with a simple locked
ISC_LIST. There's a slight improvement - since copying the whole list
is very lightweight - we move the queue into a new list before we start
the processing and locking just for moving the queue and not for every
single item on the list.
NOTE: There's a room for future improvements - since we don't guarantee
the order in which the netievents are processed, we could have two lists
- one unlocked that would be used when scheduling the work from the
matching thread and one locked that would be used from non-matching
thread.
LibreSSL 3.5.0 fails to compile with these shims. We could have just
removed the LibreSSL check from the pre-processor condition, but it
seems that these shims are no longer needed because all the supported
versions of OpenSSL and LibreSSL have those functions.
According to EVP_ENCRYPTINIT(3) manual page in LibreSSL,
EVP_CIPHER_CTX_new() and EVP_CIPHER_CTX_free() first appeared in
OpenSSL 0.9.8b, and have been available since OpenBSD 4.5.
when parsing key pairs, if the '=' character fell at max_token
a protective INSIST preventing buffer overrun could be triggered.
Attempt to grow the buffer immediately before the INSIST.
Also removed an unnecessary INSIST on the opening double quote
of key buffer pair.
The isc__nmsocket_reset() was missing a case for raw TCP sockets (used
by RNDC and DoH) which would case a assertion failure when write timeout
would be triggered.
TCP sockets are now also properly handled in isc__nmsocket_reset().
When isc__nm_uvreq_t gets deactivated, it could be just put onto array
stack to be reused later to save some initialization time.
Unfortunately, this might hide some use-after-free errors.
Disable the inactive uvreqs caching when compiled with Address or
Thread Sanitizer.
When isc_nmhandle_t gets deactivated, it could be just put onto array
stack to be reused later to safe some initialization time.
Unfortunately, this might hide some use-after-free errors.
Disable the inactive handles caching when compiled with Address or
Thread Sanitizer.
The isc__nmsocket_t has locked array of isc_nmhandle_t that's not used
for anything. The isc__nmhandle_get() adds the isc_nmhandle_t to the
locked array (and resized if necessary) and removed when
isc_nmhandle_put() finally destroys the handle. That's all it does, so
it serves no useful purpose.
Remove the .ah_handles, .ah_size, and .ah_frees members of the
isc__nmsocket_t and .ah_pos member of the isc_nmhandle_t struct.
When the TCP, TCPDNS or TLSDNS connection times out, the isc__nm_uvreq_t
would be pushed into sock->inactivereqs before the uv_tcp_connect()
callback finishes. Because the isc__nmsocket_t keeps the list of
inactive isc__nm_uvreq_t, this would cause use-after-free only when the
sock->inactivereqs is full (which could never happen because the failure
happens in connection timeout callback) or when the sock->inactivereqs
mechanism is completely removed (f.e. when running under Address or
Thread Sanitizer).
Delay isc__nm_uvreq_t deallocation to the connection callback and only
signal the connection callback should be called by shutting down the
libuv socket from the connection timeout callback.
The keep-response-order option has been obsoleted, and in this commit,
remove the keep-response-order ACL map rendering the option no-op, the
call the isc_nm_sequential() and the now unused isc_nm_sequential()
function itself.
There was an artificial limit of 23 on the number of simultaneous
pipelined queries in the single TCP connection. The new network
managers is capable of handling "unlimited" (limited only by the TCP
read buffer size ) queries similar to "unlimited" handling of the DNS
queries receive over UDP.
Don't limit the number of TCP queries that we can process within a
single TCP read callback.
When invalid DNS message is received, there was a handling mechanism for
DoH that would be called to return proper HTTP response.
Reuse this mechanism and reset the TCP connection when the client is
blackholed, DNS message is completely bogus or the ns_client receives
response instead of query.
Use the isc_nmhandle_setwritetimeout() function in the netmgr unit test
to allow more time for writing and reading the responses because some of
the intervals that are used in the unit tests are really small leaving a
little room for any delays.
In some situations (unit test and forthcoming XFR timeouts MR), we need
to modify the write timeout independently of the read timeout. Add a
isc_nmhandle_setwritetimeout() function that could be called before
isc_nm_send() to specify a custom write timeout interval.
When the outgoing TCP write buffers are full because the other party is
not reading the data, the uv_write() could wait indefinitely on the
uv_loop and never calling the callback. Add a new write timer that uses
the `tcp-idle-timeout` value to interrupt the TCP connection when we are
not able to send data for defined period of time.
The uv_tcp_close_reset() function was added in libuv 1.32.0 and since we
support older libuv releases, we have to add a shim uv_tcp_close_reset()
implementation loosely based on libuv.
Before adding the write timer, we have to remove the generic sock->timer
to sock->read_timer. We don't touch the function names to limit the
impact of the refactoring.
When libuv functions fail, they return correct return value that could
be useful for more detailed debugging. Currently, we usually just check
whether the return value is 0 and invoke assertion error if it doesn't
throwing away the details why the call has failed. Unfortunately, this
often happen on more exotic platforms.
Add a UV_RUNTIME_CHECK() macro that can be used to print more detailed
error message (via uv_strerror() before ending the execution of the
program abruptly with the assertion.
The task exclusive mode stops all processing (tasks and networking IO)
except the designated exclusive task events. This has impact on the
operation of the server. Add log messages indicating when we start the
exclusive mode, and when we end exclusive task mode.
There are reported occurences where the statitic counters underflows and
starts reporting non-sense.
Add a check for the underflow, when ``named`` is compiled in the
developer mode.
The isc_thread_setaffinity call was removed in !5265 and we are not
going to restore it because it was proven that the performance is better
without it. Additionally, remove the already disabled cpu system test.
The isc_thread_setconcurrency function is unused and also calling
pthread_setconcurrency() on Linux has no meaning, formerly it was
added because of Solaris in 2001 and it was removed when taskmgr was
refactored to run on top of netmgr in !4918.
When isc_quota_attach_cb() API returns ISC_R_QUOTA (meaning hard quota
was reached) the accept_connection() would return without logging a
message about quota reached.
Change the connection callback to log the quota reached message.
IBM power architecture has L1 cache line size equal to 128. Take
advantage of that on that architecture, do not force more common value
of 64. When it is possible to detect higher value, use that value
instead. Keep the default to be 64.
TLS clients can have their clock a short time in the past which will
result in not being able to validate the certificate.
Setting the "not before" property 5 minutes in the past will
accommodate with some possible clock skew across systems.
On some systems, the glibc can return 0 instead of cache-line size to
indicate the cache line sizes cannot be determined. This is comment
from glibc source code:
/* In general we cannot determine these values. Therefore we
return zero which indicates that no information is
available. */
As the goal of the check is to determine whether the L1 cache line size
is still 64 and we would use this value in case the sysconf() call is
not available, we can also ignore the invalid values returned by the
sysconf() call.
Some operating systems (OpenBSD and DragonFly BSD) don't restrict the
IPv6 sockets to sending and receiving IPv6 packets only. Explicitly
enable the IPV6_V6ONLY socket option on the IPv6 sockets to prevent
failures from using the IPv4-mapped IPv6 address.
The server_send_error_response() function is supposed to be used only
in case of failures and never in case of legitimate requests. Ensure
that ISC_HTTP_ERROR_SUCCESS is never passed there by mistake.
