DNSRPS was the API for a commercial implementation of Response-Policy
Zones that was supposedly better. However, it was never open-sourced
and has only ever been available from a single vendor. This goes against
the principle that the open-source edition of BIND 9 should contain only
features that are generally available and universal.
This commit removes the DNSRPS implementation from BIND 9. It may be
reinstated in the subscription edition if there's enough interest from
customers, but it would have to be rewritten as a plugin (hook) instead
of hard-wiring it again in so many places.
Check that the fix in the previous commit works and that the
'ServerQuota' counter in the statistics channel is still unset
after a SERVFAIL result in a 'forward only' zone.
Silence Coverity CID 468757 and 468767 (DATA RACE read not locked)
by converting dnssec-signzone to use atomics for statistics counters
rather than using a lock. This should be marginally faster than
using the lock as well when statistics are requested.
Remove the use of "port" when configuring query-source(-v6),
transfer-source(-v6), notify-source(-v6), parental-source(-v6),
etc. Remove the use of source ports for parental-agents.
Also remove the deprecated options use-{v4,v6}-udp-ports and
avoid-{v4,v6}udp-ports.
This change allows fallback from an IXFR failure to AXFR when the
reason is DNS_R_TOOMANYRECORDS. This is because this error condition
could be temporary only in an intermediate version of IXFR
transactions and it's possible that the latest version of the zone
doesn't have that condition. In such a case, the secondary would never
be able to update the zone (even if it could) without this fallback.
This fallback behavior is particularly useful with the recently
introduced max-records-per-type and max-types-per-name options:
the primary may not have these limitations and may temporarily
introduce "too many" records, breaking IXFR. If the primary side
subsequently deletes these records, this fallback will help recover
the zone transfer failure automatically; without it, the secondary
side would first need to increase the limit, which requires more
operational overhead and has its own adverse effect.
This change also fixes a minor glitch that DNS_R_TOOMANYRECORDS wasn't
logged in xfrin_fail.
named-checkconf now takes "-n" to ignore "not configured" errors.
This allows named-checkconf to check the syntax of configurations
from other builds which have support for more options.
On systems where root access is needed to configure privileged
ports, we don't want to fully relinquish root privileges until
after the control channel (which typically runs on port 953) has
been established.
named_os_changeuser() now takes a boolean argument 'permanent'.
This allows us to switch the effective userid temporarily with
named_os_changeuser(false) and restore it with named_os_restoreuser(),
before permanently dropping privileges with named_os_changeuser(true).
Administrators may wish to constrain the set of cores that BIND 9 runs
on via the 'taskset', 'cpuset' or 'numactl' programs (or equivalent on
other O/S), for example to achieve higher (or more stable) performance
by more closely associating threads with individual NIC rx queues. If
the admin has used taskset, it follows that BIND ought to
automatically use the given number of CPUs rather than the system wide
count.

With max-recursion-queries set to 50 the resolver system test was
unstable in the "checking query resolution for a domain with a valid
glueless delegation chain" check as ns1 replied with SERVFAIL.
Return partial match from dns_db_find/dns_db_find when requested
to short circuit the closest encloser discover process. Most of the
time this will be the actual closest encloser but may not be when
there yet to be committed / cleaned up versions of the zone with
names below the actual closest encloser.
Configure a maximum of 3 allowed differences and add 5 new records.
Check that named detected that the differences exceed the allowed
limit and successfully retries with AXFR.
This limits the maximum number of received incremental zone
transfer differences for a secondary server. Upon reaching the
confgiured limit, the secondary aborts IXFR and initiates a full
zone transfer (AXFR).
A new argument has been added to dnssec-keygen and dnssec-keyfromlabel
to restrict the tag value of key generated / imported to a particular
range. This is intended to be used by multi-signers.

If there is a keytag conflict between keys with different algorithms,
we need to supply what key algorithm is used so we can get the right
public key.
For clarity, print the algorithm on the found keys after 'check_keys'.
Test importing a Signed Key Response. Files should be loaded and once
loaded the correct bundle should be used. Alsoe test cases where the
bundle is not the first bundle in the SKR.
Add the code and documentation required to provide KSR import using
rndc. This is just the command, and the feature is at this point in
time still not implemented.
Prepare the system test for tests that require a server to import
created SKR files. This means the test script needs adjustments to
take into account the directory test files are located.
In addition, the check_keys function is renamed to ksr_check_keys
because the name clashes with check_keys from kasp.sh. It also has an
extra parameter added, offset, that can be used to check ksr files that
are created in the past or future.
Add a new configuration option to enable Offline KSK key management.
Offline KSK cannot work with CSK because it splits how keys with the
KSK and ZSK role operate. Therefore, one key cannot have both roles.
Add a configuration check to ensure this.
named now prints its initial working directory during startup and the
changed working directory when loading or reloading its configuration
file if it has a valid 'directory' option defined.
It looks like that all supported systems now have support for
_POSIX_SAVED_IDS, so it's safe to use setegid() and setegid() because
those will not change saved used/group IDs.
