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.
this changes most visble uses of master/slave terminology in tests.sh
and most uses of 'type master' or 'type slave' in named.conf files.
files in the checkconf test were not updated in order to confirm that
the old syntax still works. rpzrecurse was also left mostly unchanged
to avoid interference with DNSRPS.
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
With the netmgr in use, named may start answering queries before zones
are loaded. This can cause transient failures in system tests after
servers are restarted or reconfigured. This commit adds retry loops
and sleep statements where needed to address this problem.
Also incidentally silenced a clang warning.
- 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
