Every cppcheck update brings the cost of addressing new false positives
in the BIND 9 source code while not reaping any benefits in case of
identified issues with the code.
(cherry picked from commit 654cc61bb9)
The system tests currently uses patchwork of shell scripts which doesn't
offer proper error handling.
This commit introduced option to write new tests in pytest framework
that also allows easier manipulation of DNS traffic (using dnspython),
native XML and JSON manipulation and proper error reporting.
(cherry picked from commit cf5105939c)
This MR changes the default Debian sid build to wrap make with bear
that creates compilation database and use the compilation database
to run Cppcheck on the source files systematically.
The job is currently set to be allowed to fail as it will take some
time to fix all the Cppcheck detected issues.
- in unittest step, explicitly preserve kyua.log or atf.out
- preserve kyua results database if present
- generate HTML report from kyua results if available
4708. [cleanup] Legacy Windows builds (i.e. for XP and earlier)
are no longer supported. [RT #45186]
4707. [func] The lightweight resolver daemon and library (lwresd
and liblwres) have been removed. [RT #45186]
4706. [func] Code implementing name server query processing has
been moved from bin/named to a new library "libns".
Functions remaining in bin/named are now prefixed
with "named_" rather than "ns_". This will make it
easier to write unit tests for name server code, or
link name server functionality into new tools.
[RT #45186]
provisioning secondary servers in which a list of
zones to be served is stored in a DNS zone and can
be propagated to slaves via AXFR/IXFR. [RT #41581]
4375. [func] Add support for automatic reallocation of isc_buffer
to isc_buffer_put* functions. [RT #42394]
