When searching through a DNSKEY or KEY rrset for the key matching a particular algorithm and ID, it's a waste of time to convert every key into a `dst_key` object; it's faster to compute the key ID from the rdata, then do the full key conversion after determining that we've found the right key. This optimization was already used in the validator, but it's been refactored for code clarity, and is now also used in query.c and message.c.

This merge request resolves some performance regressions introduced
with the change from isc_symtab_t to isc_hashmap_t.
The key improvements are:
1. Using a faster hash function than both isc_hashmap_t and
isc_symtab_t. The previous implementation used SipHash, but the
hashflood resistance properties of SipHash are unneeded for config
parsing.
2. Shrinking the initial size of the isc_hashmap_t used inside
isc_symtab_t. Symtab is mainly used for config parsing, and the
when used that way it will have between 1 and 50 keys, but the
previous implementation initialized a map with 128 slots.
By initializing a smaller map, we speed up mallocs and optimize for
the typical case of few config keys.
3. Slight optimization of the string matching in the hashmap, so that
the tail is handled in a single load + comparison, instead of byte
by byte.
Of the three improvements, this is the least important.

The following small issues related to `dnssec-policy` have been fixed:
- In some cases the key manager inside BIND 9 could run every hour, while it could have run less often.
- While `CDS` and `CDNSKEY` records will be removed correctly from the zone when the corresponding `DS` record needs to be updated, the expected timing metadata when this will happen was never set.
- There were a couple of cases where the safety intervals are added inappropriately, delaying key rollovers longer than necessary.
- If you have identical `keys` in your `dnssec-policy`, they may be retired inappropriately. Note that having keys with identical properties is discouraged in all cases.
Closes#5242

The dnssec-keygen command for the ZSK generation for the zone
multisigner-model2.kasp was wrong (no ZSK was generated in the setup
script, but when 'named' is started, the missing ZSK was created
anyway by 'dnssec-policy'.
Only set the next time the keymgr should run if the value is non zero.
Otherwise we default back to one hour. This may happen if there is one
or more key with an unlimited lifetime.
The keymgr never set the expected timing metadata when CDS/CDNSKEY
records for the corresponding key will be removed from the zone. This
is not troublesome, as key states dictate when this happens, but with
the new pytest we use the timing metadata to determine if the CDS and/or
CDNSKEY for the given key needs to be published.
There are a couple of cases where the safety intervals are added
inappropriately:
1. When setting the PublishCDS/SyncPublish timing metadata, we don't
need to add the publish-safety value if we are calculating the time
when the zone is completely signed for the first time. This value
is for when the DNSKEY has been published and we add a safety
interval before considering the DNSKEY omnipresent.
2. The retire-safety value should only be added to ZSK rollovers if
there is an actual rollover happening, similar to adding the sign
delay.
3. The retire-safety value should only be added to KSK rollovers if
there is an actual rollover happening. We consider the new DS
omnipresent a bit later, so that we are forced to keep the old DS
a bit longer.
While converting the kasp system test to pytest, I encountered a small
bug in the keymgr code. We retire keys when there is more than one
key matching a 'keys' line from the dnssec-policy. But if there are
multiple identical 'keys' lines, as is the case for the test zone
'checkds-doubleksk.kasp', we retire one of the two keys that have the
same properties.
Fix this by checking if there are double matches. This is not fool proof
because there may be many keys for a few identical 'keys' lines, but it
is good enough for now. In practice it makes no sense to have a policy
that dictates multiple keys with identical properties.
Raw integer pointers were being used for the validator's nvalidations

When query responses timed out, the resolver could incorrectly increase the regular responses counters, even if no response was received. This has been fixed.
Closes#5193
Merge branch '5193-resolver-statistics-counters-fix' into 'main'
See merge request isc-projects/bind9!10227
When a response times out the fctx_cancelquery() function
incorrectly calculates it in the 'dns_resstatscounter_queryrtt5'
counter (i.e. >=1600 ms). To avoid this, the rctx_timedout()
function should make sure that 'rctx->finish' is NULL. And in order
to adjust the RTT values for the timed out server, 'rctx->no_response'
should be true. Update the rctx_timedout() function to make those
changes.
The resquery_response() function increases the response counter without
checking if the response was successful. Increase the counter only when
the result indicates success.
This branch started off as `michal/upforwd-asyncserver`. It quickly
turned out that the critical `asyncserver.py` change that was needed for
the `upforwd` system test was for the server to be able to read multiple
TCP queries on a single connection. As currently present in `main`,
`asyncserver.py` closes every client connection after servicing a single
query. Retaining that behavior would cause the `upforwd` system test to
fail and, in general, capturing all data sent by a client seems more
useful in tests than just closing connections quickly. `asyncserver.py`
can always be extended in the future (e.g. by adding a new
`ResponseAction` that the networking code would react to) to reinstate
the original behavior, if it turns out to be necessary.
While working on changing that particular `asyncserver.py` behavior, I
noticed a couple of other deficiencies in the TCP connection handling
code, so I started addressing them. One thing led to another and before
I noticed, enough changes were applied to be worth doing a separate
merge request, particularly given that the actual rewrite of
`upforwd/ans4/ans.pl` using `asyncserver.py` is trivial once the
required changes to `asyncserver.py` itself are applied.
Merge branch 'michal/asyncserver-tcp-improvements' into 'main'
See merge request isc-projects/bind9!10276
Instead of closing every incoming TCP connection after handling a single
query, continue receiving queries on each TCP connection until the
client disconnects itself. When coupled with response dropping, this
enables silently receiving all incoming data, simulating an unresponsive
server.
A TCP DNS client may send its queries in chunks, causing
StreamReader.read() to return less data than previously declared by the
client as the DNS message length; even the two-octet DNS message length
itself may be split up into two single-octet transmissions. Sending
data in chunks is valid client behavior that should not be treated as an
error. Add a new helper method for reading TCP data in a loop, properly
distinguishing between chunked queries and client disconnections. Use
the new method for reading all TCP data from clients.
A TCP peer may reset the connection at any point, but asyncserver.py
currently only handles connection resets when it is sending data to the
client. Handle connection resets during reading in the same way.
Add a helper class, Peer, which holds the <host, port> tuple of a
connection endpoint and gets pretty-printed when formatted as a string.
This enables passing instances of this new class directly to logging
functions, eliminating the need for the AsyncDnsServer._format_peer()
helper method.

While there is a slight risk that barely noticable decreases in
performance might slip by more easily in MRs, they'd still likely pop up
during nightly or pre-release testing.
Also increase the tolerance threshold for DoH latency comparisons, as
those tests often experience increased jitter in the tail end latencies.
Replace custom DNS servers used in the "qmin" system test with new code

Some versions of the Hypothesis Python library - notably the one
included in stock OS repositories for Ubuntu 20.04 Focal Fossa - cause a
.hypothesis file to be created in a Python script's working directory
when the hypothesis module is present in its import chain. Ignore such
files by adding them to the list of expected test artifacts to prevent
pytest teardown checks from failing due to these files appearing in the
file system after running system tests.
Commit 6c010a5644 caused the PYTHONPATH
environment variable to be set for ans.py servers started using
start.pl. However, no system test has actually used the new
isctest.asyncserver module since that change was applied, so it has not
been noticed until now that including the source directory in PYTHONPATH
is only sufficient for in-tree builds. Include the build directory
instead of the source directory in the PYTHONPATH environment variable
set for ans.py servers started by start.pl so that they work correctly
for both in-tree and out-of-tree builds.

When performing QNAME minimization, `named` now sends an NS query for the original query name, before sending the final query. This prevents the parent zone from learning the original query type, in the event that the query name is a delegation point.
For example, when looking up an address record for `example.com`, NS queries are now sent to the servers for both `com` and `example.com`, before the address query is sent to the servers for `example.com`. Previously, an address query would have been sent to the servers for `com`.

When performing QNAME minimization, named now sends an NS
query for the original QNAME, to prevent the parent zone from
receiving the QTYPE.
For example, when looking up example.com/A, we now send NS queries
for both com and example.com before sending the A query to the
servers for example.com. Previously, an A query for example.com
would have been sent to the servers for com.
Several system tests needed to be adjusted for the new query pattern:
- Some queries in the serve-stale test were sent to the wrong server.
- The synthfromdnssec test could fail due to timing issues; this
has been addressed by adding a 1-second delay.
- The cookie test could fail due to the a change in the count of
TSIG records received in the "check that missing COOKIE with a
valid TSIG signed response does not trigger TCP fallback" test case.
- The GL #4652 regression test case in the chain system test depends
on a particular query order, which no longer occurs when QNAME
minimization is active. We now disable qname-minimization
for that test.
If a timeout occurs when sending a QMIN query, QNAME
minimization should be disabled. This now causes a hard
failure in strict mode, or a fallback to non-minimized queries
in relaxed mode.
The calling fetch has already called fcount_incr() for this zone;
calling it again for a QMIN query results in double counting.
When resuming after a QMIN query is answered, however, we do now
ensure before continuing that the fetches-per-zone limit has not
been exceeded.
Dig +showbadvers now displays the received BADVERS message and

Support was added for EDE codes 20 (Not Authoritative) when client requests recursion (RD) but the server has recursion disabled.

When generating new key pairs, one test checks if existing keys that
match the time bundle are selected, rather than extra keys being
generated. Part of the test is to check the verbose output, counting
the number of "Selecting" and "Generating" occurences. But if there
is a key collision, the ksr tool will output that the key already
exists and includes the substring "already exists, or might collide
with another key upon revokation. Generating a new key".
So substract by one the generated counter if there is a "collide"
occurrence.

as it doesn't work reliably when using the call_rcu() API. Instead of
doing this individually, call isc_mem_checkdestroyed(stderr) from the
isc_mem_destroy() macro to keep the extra check that all contexts were
freed when the program is exiting.

This merge request addresses several key performance bottlenecks in the DoH (DNS over HTTPS) implementation by introducing significant optimizations and improvements.
### Key Improvements
1. **Simplification and Optimisation of `http_do_bio()` Function**:
- The code flow in the `http_do_bio()` function has been significantly simplified.
2. **Flushing HTTP Write Buffer on Outgoing DNS Messages**:
- The buffer is flushed and a send operation is performed when there is an outgoing DNS message.
3. **Bumping Active Streams Processing Limit**:
- The total number of active streams has been increased to 60% of the total streams limit.
These changes collectively enhance the performance and reliability of the DoH implementation, making it more efficient and robust for handling high-load scenarios, particularly noticeable in long runs (>= 1h) of `stress:long:rpz:doh+udp:linux:*` tests. It improves perf. for tests for BIND 9.18, but it likely will have a positive but less pronounced effect on newer versions as well.
In essence, the merge request fixes three bottlenecks stacked upon each other.
*It is a logical continuation of the merge requests !10109.* !10109, unfortunately, did not completely [address the performance drop in 9.18](https://gitlab.isc.org/isc-projects/bind9/-/pipelines/221545) for longer runs of the stress test. This merge request [addresses that](https://gitlab.isc.org/isc-projects/bind9/-/pipelines/223661).
**P.S.**
The origin of the fixes is, in fact, the branch in !10193. So this MR is a ... *forward port* of them.
Merge branch 'artem-doh-performance-drop-post-fix' into 'main'
See merge request isc-projects/bind9!10192
This commit bumps the total number of active streams (= the opened
streams for which a request is received, but response is not ready) to
60% of the total streams limit.
The previous limit turned out to be too tight as revealed by
longer (≥1h) runs of "stress:long:rpz:doh+udp:linux:*" tests.
Previously, the code would try to avoid sending any data regardless of
what it is unless:
a) The flush limit is reached;
b) There are no sends in flight.
This strategy is used to avoid too numerous send requests with little
amount of data. However, it has been proven to be too aggressive and,
in fact, harms performance in some cases (e.g., on longer (≥1h) runs
of "stress:long:rpz:doh+udp:linux:*").
Now, additionally to the listed cases, we also:
c) Flush the buffer and perform a send operation when there is an
outgoing DNS message passed to the code (which is indicated by the
presence of a send callback).
That helps improve performance for "stress:long:rpz:doh+udp:linux:*"
tests.
Previously, a function for continuing IO processing on the next UV
tick was introduced (http_do_bio_async()). The intention behind this
function was to ensure that http_do_bio() is eventually called at
least once in the future. However, the current implementation allows
queueing multiple such delayed requests needlessly. There is currently
no need for these excessive requests as http_do_bio() can requeue them
if needed. At the same time, each such request can lead to a memory
allocation, particularly in BIND 9.18.
This commit ensures that the number of enqueued delayed IO processing
requests never exceeds one in order to avoid potentially bombarding IO
threads with the delayed requests needlessly.
This commit significantly simplifies the code flow in the
http_do_bio() function, which is responsible for processing incoming
and outgoing HTTP/2 data. It seems that the way it was structured
before was indirectly caused by the presence of the missing callback
calls bug, fixed in 8b8f4d500d.
The change introduced by this commit is known to remove a bottleneck
and allows reproducible and measurable performance improvement for
long runs (>= 1h) of "stress:long:rpz:doh+udp:linux:*" tests.
Additionally, it fixes a similar issue with potentially missing send
callback calls processing and hardens the code against use-after-free
errors related to the session object (they can potentially occur).
Cleanup short list macros from <isc/util.h>, remove two unused headers, move locking macros to respective headers and use only the C11 static assertion.
Merge branch 'ondrej/cleanup-short-macros' into 'main'
See merge request isc-projects/bind9!10196
Previously, a gcc < 4.6 shim for _Static_assert() was included. Such an
old compiler is not supported now anyway, so the macro variant has been
removed in favor of a single definition using _Static_assert().
Previously, the LOCK()/UNLOCK() and friends macros were defined in the
isc/util.h header. Those macros were moved to their respective headers
as those would have to be included anyway if that particular lock was in
use.
Formerly, isc/util.h would pull a few extra headers (isc/list.h,
isc/attributes.h, isc/result.h and errno.h). These includes were
removed in favor of including them directly when used.
The short convenience list macros were used very sparingly and
inconsistenly in the code base. As the consistency is prefered over
the convenience, all shortened list macro were removed in favor of
their ISC_LIST API targets.
When querying zone transfers information from the statistics channel there was a rare possibility that `named` could terminate unexpectedly if a zone transfer was in a state when transferring from all the available primary servers had failed earlier. This has been fixed.
Closes#5198
Merge branch '5198-dns_remote_curraddr-bug-fix' into 'main'
See merge request isc-projects/bind9!10182
When all the addresses were already iterated over, the
dns_remote_curraddr() function asserts. So before calling it,
dns_zone_getprimaryaddr() now checks the address list using the
dns_remote_done() function. This also means that instead of
returning 'isc_sockaddr_t' it now returns 'isc_result_t' and
writes the primary's address into the provided pointer only when
returning success.
Logging initialization check is now redundant as there is a default global log context created during libisc's constructor.
`isc_log` calls can safely be made at any time outside libisc's constructor.

Execute DNS Shotgun performance tests on the regular MRs and compare the changes they introduce against the MR diff base. The results are evaluated automatically - the shotgun jobs will fail if thresholds for CPU/memory/latency difference is exceeded.
Merge branch 'nicki/ci-shotgun-eval' into 'main'

The keyword rules allows more flexible and complex conditions when
deciding whether to create the job and also makes it possible run tweak
variables or job properties depending on arbitraty rules. Since it's
not possible to combine only/except and rules together, replace all
uses of only/except to avoid any potential future issues.
If the shotgun tests are executed for MRs, compare it against the MR's
base rather than the previous release. Only fail the job in case the
performance drops (pass on performance improvements).
Note that start_in optimization was removed, since it isn't properly
supported with rules as of February 2025
(https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/424203). Without this
optimization, container test images are likely to be re-built
unnecessarily when testing different protocols. A workaround for the
.gitlab-ci.yml exists, but the extra complexity doesn't seem justified.
The container image builds might change or be optimized in the future,
so let's just go with the build duplication for now.

Previously, in some cases, the resolver could return rdatasets of type CNAME or DNAME without the result code being set to `DNS_R_CNAME` or `DNS_R_DNAME`. This could trigger an assertion failure in the ADB. The resolver error has been fixed.

See merge request isc-projects/bind9!10172
when the caching of a negative record failed because of the
presence of a positive one, ncache_adderesult() could override
this to ISC_R_SUCCESS. this could cause CNAME and DNAME responses
to be handled incorrectly. ncache_adderesult() now sets the result
code correctly in such cases.
When a server name turns out to be a CNAME or DNAME, the ADB does not use it, but the `dns_adbname` structure still stored a copy of the target name. This is unnecessary and the code has been removed.
Merge branch 'each-remove-adb-target' into 'main'
See merge request isc-projects/bind9!10149
the target name parameter to dns_adb_createfind() was always passed as
NULL, so we can safely remove it.
relatedly, the 'target' field in the dns_adbname structure was never
referenced after being set. the 'expire_target' field was used, but
only as a way to check whether an ADB name represents a CNAME or DNAME,
and that information can be stored as a single flag.
The dual-stack-servers configuration option was not working as expected; the specified servers were not being used when they should have been, leading to resolution failures. This has been fixed.
Closes#5019
Merge branch '5019-dual-stack-servers-wasn-t-working-in-all-cases' into 'main'
See merge request isc-projects/bind9!9708
Now that fctx_try is being called when adb returns DNS_ADB_NOMOREADDRESSES
we don't need these priming queries for the dual-stack-servers test
to succeed.
Named was stopping nameserver address resolution attempts too soon
when dual stack servers are configured. Dual stack servers are
used when there are *not* addresses for the server in a particular
address family so find->status == DNS_ADB_NOMOREADDRESSES is not a
sufficient stopping condition when dual stack servers are available.
Call fctx_try to see if the alternate servers can be used.
DNSKEY, KEY, RRSIG and SIG constraints have been relaxed to allow empty key and signature material after the algorithm identifier for PRIVATEOID and PRIVATEDNS.

The `NS_QUERY_DONE_BEGIN` and `NS_QUERY_DONE_SEND` plugin hooks could cause a reference leak if they returned `NS_HOOK_RETURN` without cleaning up the query context properly.
Closes#2094

See merge request isc-projects/bind9!9971
if the NS_QUERY_DONE_BEGIN or NS_QUERY_DONE_SEND hook is
used in a plugin and returns NS_HOOK_RETURN, some of the
cleanup in ns_query_done() can be skipped over, leading
to reference leaks that can cause named to hang on shut
down.
this has been addressed by adding more housekeeping
code after the cleanup: tag in ns_query_done().
dnssec-signzone could dereference a NULL key pointer when resigning a zone. This has been fixed.

Several functions in the `dns_name` module have had parameters removed, that were rarely or never used:
- `dns_name_fromtext()` and `dns_name_concatenate()` no longer take a target buffer.
- `dns_name_towire()` no longer takes a compression offset pointer; this is now part of the compression context.
- `dns_name_towire()` with a `NULL` compression context will copy name data directly into a buffer with no processing.
Merge branch 'each-simplify-names' into 'main'
See merge request isc-projects/bind9!10152
previously, dns_name_fromtext() took both a target name and an
optional target buffer parameter, which could override the name's
dedicated buffer. this interface is unnecessarily complex.
we now have two functions, dns_name_fromtext() to convert text
into a dns_name that has a dedicated buffer, and dns_name_wirefromtext()
to convert text into uncompressed DNS wire format and append it to a
target buffer.
in cases where it really is necessary to have both, we can use
dns_name_fromtext() to load the dns_name, then dns_name_towire()
to append the wire format to the target buffer.
dns_name_fromtext() stores the converted name in the 'name'
passed to it, and optionally also copies it in wire format to
a buffer 'target'. this makes the interface unnecessarily
complex, and could be simplified by having a different function
for each purpose. as a first step, remove uses of the target
buffer in calls to dns_name_fromtext() where it wasn't actually
needed.
the target buffer passed to dns_name_concatenate() was never
used (except for one place in dig, where it wasn't actually
needed, and has already been removed in a prior commit).
we can safely remove the parameter.
this parameter was added as a (minor) optimization for
cases where dns_name_towire() is run repeatedly with the
same compression context, as when rendering all of the rdatas
in an rdataset. it is currently only used in one place.
we now simplify the interface by removing the extra parameter.
the compression offset value is now part of the compression
context, and can be activated when needed by calling
dns_compress_setmultiuse(). multiuse mode is automatically
deactivated by any subsequent call to dns_compress_permitted().
The `dns_rdataslab_fromrdataset()` function creates a slab from an rdataset. If the source rdataset already uses a slab, then no processing is necessary; we can just copy the existing slab to a new location.

Previously, if a new counter was added to the hashtable
while dumping recursing clients via the `rndc recursing`
command, and `fetches-per-zone` was enabled, an assertion
failure could occur. This has been fixed.
Closes#5200
Merge branch '5200-destroy-iterator-inside-the-rwlock' into 'main'
See merge request isc-projects/bind9!10164
Previously, the hashmap iterator for fetches-per-zone was destroy
outside the rwlock. This could lead to an assertion failure due to a
timing race with the internal rehashing of the hashmap table as the
rehashing process requires no iterators to be running when rehashing the
hashmap table. This has been fixed by moving the destruction of the
iterator inside the read locked section.
The memory used to internally store the DNS names has been reduced.
Merge branch 'ondrej/experiment-no-offsets-in-dns_name' into 'main'

The third argument to set_offsets() was only used in
dns_name_fromregion() and not really needed. We can remove the third
argument and then manually check whether the last label is root label.
There was just a single use of passing an extra buffer to
dns_name_downcase() which have been replaced by simple call to
isc_ascii_lowercase() and the 'target' argument from dns_name_downcase()
function has been removed.
The MAKE_EMPTY() macro was clearing up the output variable in case of
the failure. However, this was breaking the usual design pattern that
the output variables are left in indeterminate state or we don't touch
them at all when a failure occurs. Remove the macro and change the
dns_name_downcase() to not touch the name contents until success.
There was a back-and-forth between static arrays and the pointers to the
offsets. Since we are now only using the static arrays, we can cleanup
the usage of the pointers that would previously point either to the
static array or name->offsets if available.
The offsets were meant to speed-up the repeated dns_name operations, but
it was experimentally proven that there's actually no real-world
benefit. Remove the offsets and labels fields from the dns_name and the
static offsets fields to save 128 bytes from the fixedname in favor of
calculating labels and offsets only when needed.

Instead of relying on unreliable order of execution of the library
constructors and destructors, move them to individual binaries. The

As the default_call_rcu_thread can't be forced to flush all the work
during the executable shutdown, create one call_rcu_thread explicitly
and assign it to the all created threads.
This allows this explicit call_rcu_thread to be unassociated from the
main thread and freed before the executable destructor exits.
Instead of relying on unreliable order of execution of the library

This requires more work, but that was mitigated by a simple requirement,
any executable using libisc and libdns, must include <isc/lib.h> and
<dns/lib.h> respectively (in this particular order). In turn, these two
headers must not be included from within any library as they contain
inlined functions marked with constructor/destructor attributes.
Previously, active resolver fetches were only dumped when the `fetches-per-zone` configuration option was enabled. Now, active resolver fetches are dumped along with the number of `clients-per-server` counters per resolver fetch.
Merge branch 'ondrej/make-dns_resolver_dumpfetches-dump-fetches' into 'main'
See merge request isc-projects/bind9!10107
Previously, the dns_resolver_dumpfetches() would go over the fetch
counters. Alas, because of the earlier optimization, the fetch counters
would be increased only when fetches-per-zone was not 0, otherwise the
whole counting was skipped for performance reasons.
Instead of using the auxiliary fetch counters hash table, use the real
hash table that stores the fetch contexts to dump the ongoing fetches to
the recursing file.
Additionally print more information about the fetch context like start
and expiry times, number of fetch responses, number of queries and count
of allowed and dropped fetches.
Previously, a data race could cause a newly created fetch context for a new client to be used
before it had been fully initialized, which would cause the query to become stuck; queries for the same
data would be either paused indefinitely or dropped because of
the `clients-per-query` limit. This has been fixed.

The order of the fetch context hash table rwlock and the individual

always locked on the outside and the fctx lock is the interior lock.

After a reconfiguration the old view can be left without a valid
'rpzs' member, because when the RPZ is not changed during the named
reconfiguration 'rpzs' "migrate" from the old view into the new
view, so when a query resumes it can find that 'qctx->view->rpzs'
is NULL which query_resume() currently doesn't expect to happen if
it's recursing and 'qctx->rpz_st' is not NULL.
Fix the issue by adding a NULL-check. In order to not split the log
message to two different log messages depending on whether
'qctx->view->rpzs' is NULL or not, change the message to not log
the RPZ policy's "version" which is just a runtime counter and is
most likely not very useful for the users.

Previously a hard-coded limitation of maximum two key or message
verification checks were introduced when checking the message's
SIG(0) signature. It was done in order to protect against possible
DoS attacks. The logic behind choosing the number 2 was that more
than a single key should only be required during key rotations, and
in that case two keys are enough. But later it became apparent that
there are other use cases too where even more keys are required, see
issue number #5050 in GitLab.
This change introduces two new configuration options for the views,
`sig0key-checks-limit` and `sig0message-checks-limit`, which define how
many keys are allowed to be checked to find a matching key, and how
many message verifications are allowed to take place once a matching
key has been found. The latter protects against expensive cryptographic
operations when there are keys with colliding tags and algorithm
numbers, with default being 2, and the former protects against a bit
less expensive key parsing operations and defaults to 16.

Running jobs which were entered into the isc_quota queue is the
responsibility of the isc_quota_release() function, which, when
releasing a previously acquired quota, checks whether the queue
is empty, and if it's not, it runs a job from the queue without touching
the 'quota->used' counter. This mechanism is susceptible to a possible
hangup of a newly queued job in case when between the time a decision
has been made to queue it (because used >= max) and the time it was
actually queued, the last quota was released. Since there is no more
quotas to be released (unless arriving in the future), the newly
entered job will be stuck in the queue.
Fix the issue by adding checks in both isc_quota_release() and
isc_quota_acquire_cb() to make sure that the described hangup does
not happen. Also see code comments.

A new option 'min-transfer-rate-in <bytes> <minutes>' has been added
to the view and zone configurations. It can abort incoming zone
transfers which run very slowly due to network related issues, for
example. The default value is set to 10240 bytes in 5 minutes.

Expose the average transfer rate (in bytes-per-second) during the
last full 'min-transfer-rate-in <bytes> <minutes>' minutes interval.
If no such interval has passed yet, then the overall average rate is
reported instead.
Add a new big zone, run a zone transfer in slow mode, and check
whether the zone transfer gets canceled because 100000 bytes are
not transferred in 5 seconds (as it's running in slow mode).
This new option sets a minimum amount of transfer rate for
an incoming zone transfer that will abort a transfer, which
for some network related reasons run very slowly.
The cache has been updated so that if new data is rejected - for example, because there was already existing data at a higher trust level - then its covering RRSIG will also be rejected.
Closes#5132
Merge branch '5132-improve-cd-behavior' into 'main'
See merge request isc-projects/bind9!9999
Add a new dns_rdataset_equals() function to check whether two
rdatasets are equal in DNSSEC terms.
When an rdataset being cached is rejected because its trust
level is lower than the existing rdataset, we now check to see
whether the rejected data was identical to the existing data.
This allows us to cache a potentially useful RRSIG when handling
CD=1 queries, while still rejecting RRSIGs that would definitely
have resulted in a validation failure.
Rdata slabs used in the QP databases are usually prepended with a slab header, but are sometimes "raw", containing only the rdata and no header. Previously, to allow for them to be used both ways, functions that operated on them took a `reservelen` argument, which would be set to either the header length or to zero, and skipped over that many bytes at the beginning of the buffer. Most such functions were never used on the raw form. To make the code clearer, each of these functions now operates on full slabs with headers, and an alternate "raw" version of the function has been added in cases where that was needed.
In addition, the `dns_rdataslab_merge()` and `_subtract()` functions have been rewritten for clarity and efficiency, and a minor bug has been fixed in `dns_rdataslab_equal()` and `_equalx()`, which could cause an incorrect result if both slabs being compared had zero length.
Merge branch 'each-refactor-rdataslab' into 'main'
See merge request isc-projects/bind9!10084
The "raw" version of the header was used for the noqname and the closest
proofs to save around 152 bytes of the dns_slabheader_t while bringing
an additional complexity. Remove the raw version of the dns_slabheader
API at the slight expense of having unused dns_slabheader_t data sitting
in front of the proofs.
reduce the number of rdata comparisons needed by walking
through the original slab once to determine whether the rdata
in it is duplicated in the slab to be subtracted, and then
write out the rdatas that aren't. previously, this was
done twice: once when determining the size of the target buffer
and then again when copying data into it.
when merging two rdata slabs, we now check once to see
whether an item in the new slab has a duplicate in the
old. previously this was done twice; once to determine the
size of the target buffer required, and then again when
copying the data into it.
we also minimize the number of rdata comparisons necessary,
by remembering which items in the old slab have already been
found to be duplicates.
The function name dns_slabheader_fromrdataset() was too similar
to dns_rdataslab_fromrdataset(). Instead, we now have an rdataset
method 'getheader' which is implemented for slab-type rdatasets.
A new NOHEADER rdataset attribute is set for rdatasets using
raw slabs (i.e., noqname and closest encloser proofs); when
called on rdatasets with that flag set, dns_rdataset_getheader()
returns NULL.
when dns_rdataslab_fromrdataset() is run, in addition to
allocating space for a slab header, it also partially
initializes it, setting the type match rdataset->type and
rdataset->covers, the trust to rdataset->trust, and the TTL to
rdataset->ttl.
there are now two functions for creating an rdataslab from an
rdataset: dns_rdataslab_fromrdataset() creates a full slab (including
space for a slab header), and dns_rdataslab_raw_fromrdataset() creates
a raw slab.
- there are now two functions for getting rdataslab size:
dns_rdataslab_size() is for full slabs and dns_rdataslab_sizeraw()
for raw slabs. there is no longer a need for a reservelen parameter.
- dns_rdataslab_count() also no longer takes a reservelen parameter.
(currently it's never used for raw slabs, so there is no _countraw()
function.)
- dns_rdataslab_rdatasize() has been removed, because
dns_rdataslab_sizeraw() can do the same thing.
- dns_rdataslab_merge() and dns_rdataslab_subtract() both take
slabheader parameters instead of character buffers, and the
reservelen parameter has been removed.
if both rdataslabs being compared have zero length, return true.
also, since these functions are only ever called on slabheaders
with sizeof(dns_slabheader_t) as the reserve length, we can
simplify the API: remove the reservelen argument, and pass the
slabs as type dns_slabheader_t * instead of unsigned char *.
The dns_slabheader object uses the 'next' pointer for two purposes.
In the first header for any given type, 'next' points to the first
header for the next type. But 'down' points to the next header of
the same type, and in that record, 'next' points back up.
This design made the code confusing to read. We now use a union
so that the 'next' pointer can also be called 'up'.
The value returned by http_send_outgoing() is not used anywhere, so we
make it not return anything (void). Probably it is an omission from
older times.
When handling outgoing data, there were a couple of rarely executed
code paths that would not take into account that the callback MUST be
called.
It could lead to potential memory leaks and consequent shutdown hangs.
This commit changes the way how the number of active HTTP streams is
calculated and allows it to scale with the values of the maximum
amount of streams per connection, instead of effectively capping at
STREAM_CLIENTS_PER_CONN.
The original limit, which is intended to define the pipelining limit
for TCP/DoT. However, it appeared to be too restrictive for DoH, as it
works quite differently and implements pipelining at protocol level by
the means of multiplexing multiple streams. That renders each stream
to be effectively a separate connection from the point of view of the
rest of the codebase.
Previously we would limit the amount of incoming data to process based
solely on the presence of not completed send requests. That worked,
however, it was found to severely degrade performance in certain
cases, as was revealed during extended testing.
Now we switch to keeping track of how much data is in flight (or ready
to be in flight) and limit the amount of processed incoming data when
the amount of in flight data surpasses the given threshold, similarly
to like we do in other transports.

Removed some code from the cache database implementation that was left over from before it and the zone database implementation were separated.
Merge branch 'each-qpcache-refactor' into 'main'
See merge request isc-projects/bind9!9991
Database versions are not used in cache databases. Some places in
qpcache.c required the version argument to be NULL; others marked it
as UNUSED. Unify all cases to require version to be NULL.
Add new related_headers() function that simplifies the code
flow in qpcache_findrdataset(). Also use check_stale_header() function
to remove code duplication.
Add a helper function both_headers() that unifies the slabheader
matching for simple type: it returns true when both the type and
the matching RRSIG have been found.
The new maybe_update_headers() function unifies the LRU updates to the
slabheaders that was scattered all over the place. More calls to update
headers after bindrdatasets() were also added for completeness.
This removes code duplication between the dual bindrdataset() calls. It
also unifies the handling as there were small differences between the
calls: one variant was checking for !NEGATIVE(found) condition and one
wasn't, and it is technically ok to do the check for all variants.
The check_stale_header() function now updates header_prev directly
so it doesn't have to be handled in the outer loop; it's always
set to the correct value of the previous header in the chain.
some code was left in the cache database implementation after
it was separated from the zone database, and can be cleaned up
and refactored now:
- the DNS_SLABHEADERATTR_IGNORE flag is never set in the cache
- support for loading the cache from was removed, but the add()
function still had a 'loading' flag that's always false
- two different macros were used for checking the
DNS_SLABHEADERATTR_NONEXISTENT flag - EXISTS() and NONEXISTENT().
it's clearer to just use EXISTS().
- the cache doesn't support versions, so it isn't necessary to
walk down the 'down' pointer chain when iterating through the
cache or looking for a header to update. 'down' now only points
to records that are deleted from the cache but have not yet been
purged from memory. this allows us to simplify both the iterator
and the add() function.

in some places there were checks for failures of dns_qp_insert()
after dns_qp_getname(). such failures could only happen if another
thread inserted a node between the two calls, and that can't happen
because the calls are serialized with dns_qpmulti_write(). we can
simplify the code and just add an INSIST.

When processing a query with the "checking disabled" bit set (CD=1), `named` stores the unvalidated result in the cache, marked "pending". When the same query is sent with CD=0, the cached data is validated, and either accepted as an answer, or ejected from the cache as invalid. This deferred validation was not attempted for DS and DNSKEY records if they had no cached signatures, causing spurious validation failures. We now complete the deferred validation in this scenario.
Also, if deferred validation fails, we now re-query the data to find out whether the zone has been corrected since the invalid data was cached.

If a deferred validation on data that was originally queried with
CD=1 fails, we now repeat the query, since the zone data may have
changed in the meantime.
When a query is made with CD=1, we store the result in the
cache marked pending so that it can be validated later, at
which time it will either be accepted as an answer or removed
from the cache as invalid. Deferred validation was not
attempted when there were no cached RRSIGs for DNSKEY and
DS. We now complete the deferred validation in this scenario.

In some cases, the numeric identifier doesn't correspond to the
directory name (i.e. `resolver` server in `shutdown` test, which is
supposed to be 10.53.0.3). These are typically servers that shouldn't be
auto-started by the runner, thus avoiding the typical `*ns<X>` name.
Support these server by allowing a fallback initialization with custom
numeric identifier in case it can't be parsed from the directory name.
The start()/stop() functions can be used in the pytests in the same way
as start_server and stop_server functions were used in shell tests. Note
that the servers obtained through the servers fixture are still started
and stopped by the test runner at the start and end of the test. This
makes these functions mostly useful for restarting the server(s)
mid-test.
Previously, these functions have been provided as fixtures. This was
limiting re-use, because it wasn't possible to call these outside of
tests / other fixtures without passing these utility functions around.
Move them into isctest.run package instead.

Closes#5094
Merge branch '5094-fix-timestamp-in-ttl' into 'main'
See merge request isc-projects/bind9!10048
The original .ttl field was actually used as TTL in the dns_qpzone unit.
Restore the field by adding it to union with the .expire struct member
and cleanup all the code that added or subtracted 'now' from the ttl
field as that was misleading as 'now' would be always 0 for qpzone
database.
The find_coveringnsec() was getting the 'now' from two sources -
search->now and separate now argument. Things like this are ticking
bombs, remove the extra 'now' argument and use single source of 'now'.
When the mark_ancient() helper function was introduced, couple of places
with duplicate (or almost duplicate) code was missed. Move the
mark_ancient() function closer to the top of the file, and correctly use
it in places that mark the header as ANCIENT.
If we know that the header has ZEROTTL set, the server should never send
stale records for it and the TTL should never be anything else than 0.
The comment was already there, but the code was not matching the
comment.
The old name was misleading as it never meant time-to-live, e.g. number
of seconds from now when the header should expire. The true meaning was
an expiration time e.g. now + ttl. This was the original design bug
that caused the slip when we assigned header->ttl to rdataset->ttl.
Because the name was matching, nobody has questioned the correctness of
the code both during the MR review and during the numerous re-reviews
when we were searching for the cause of the 54 year TTL.
When the header has been marked as ANCIENT, but the ttl hasn't been
reset (this happens in couple of places), the rdataset TTL would be
set to the header timestamp instead to a reasonable TTL value.
Since this header has been already expired (ANCIENT is set), set the
rdataset TTL to 0 and don't reuse this field to print the expiration
time when dumping the cache. Instead of printing the time, we now
just print 'expired (awaiting cleanup'.
ADB responses were not being validated, allowing spoofed responses to be accepted and used for further lookups. This should not be possible when the servers for the zone are in a signed zone, except with CD=1 requests or when glue is needed. This has been fixed.

Named was failing to recover when spoofed nameserver address from
a signed zone for a peer zone were returned to a previous CD=1
query. Validate non-glue interior server addresses before using them.
When there are parent and child zones on the same server, the DNSKEY
lookup was failing as the pending record we are validating is needed
to fetch the DNSKEY records. This change allows that to happen.
The caller is already setting STARTATZONE when the name being looked
up is a subdomain of the current domain.
The address lookups from ADB were not being validated, allowing
spoofed responses to be accepted and used for other lookups.
Validate the answers except when CD=1 is set in the triggering
request. Separate ADB names looked up with CD=1 from those without
CD=1, to prevent the use of unvalidated answers in the normal lookup
case (CD=0). Set the TTL on unvalidated (pending) responses to
ADB_CACHE_MINIMUM when adding them to the ADB.

We need to avoid double-triggering of post-merge jobs in the following
scenario:
1. A private MR gets merged into the private BIND 9 repository.
2. This merge operation triggers a "push" pipeline in the private
repository, which correctly runs post-merge jobs, e.g. to set MR
metadata in the private project.
3. When a release is published, a script is run to change the
automatically assigned milestone value ("Not released yet") to
something else.
4. Shortly afterwards, the result of the merge from step 1 is merged
back into a maintenance branch in the public repository.
5. The push operation triggers another "push" pipeline, this time in
the public project.
At this point there are two problems:
- If the script is dumb (like it currently is), it will extract the
merge request ID from the merge commit description and change the
milestone for a merge request in the wrong project namespace.
- Even if the script was fixed to extract and use the correct GitLab
project reference, it would reset the milestone for the merge
request in the private repository back to "Not released yet" - while
the milestone set in step 3 should be retained.
An alternative would be to change the order of operations so that
post-release milestoning happens at a later stage, while also fixing the
script to correctly follow cross-project references, but that approach
seems more fragile than simply failing on all cross-project pushes. The
rule to enforce is: each project should only take care of its own
post-merge tasks.

With shallow fetching working reliably in pygit2 1.17.0+, there is no
longer any need for GitLab CI runners to clone the BIND 9 repository
with a fixed depth of 1000 during every "danger" CI job as Hazard is now
able to fetch remote refs with an arbitrary depth, controlled by the
HAZARD_FETCH_DEPTH environment variable. The latter can be defined via
GitLab project's CI settings and adjusted as needed over time, without
the need to update .gitlab-ci.yml every time its value needs to be
changed.
Clean up the pattern in the newref() and decref() functions in QP databases. Replace the `db_nodelock_t` structure with plain reference counting for every active database node in QPDB.
Related to #5134

See merge request isc-projects/bind9!10006
Change the names of the node reference counting functions
and add comments to make the mechanism easier to understand:
- newref() and decref() are now called qpcnode_acquire()/
qpznode_acquire() and qpcnode_release()/qpznode_release()
respectively; this reflects the fact that they modify both
the internal and external reference counters for a node.
- qpcnode_newref() and qpznode_newref() are now called
qpcnode_erefs_increment() and qpznode_erefs_increment(), and
qpcnode_decref() and qpznode_decref() are now called
qpcnode_erefs_decrement() and qpznode_erefs_decrement(),
to reflect that they only increase and decrease the node's
external reference counters, not internal.
This removes the db_nodelock_t structure and changes the node_locks
array to be composed only of isc_rwlock_t pointers. The .reference
member has been moved to qpdb->references in addition to
common.references that's external to dns_db API users. The .exiting
members has been completely removed as it has no use when the reference
counting is used correctly.
The origin_node in qpcache was always NULL, so we can remove the
getoriginode() function and origin_node pointer as the
dns_db_getoriginnode() correctly returns ISC_R_NOTFOUND when the
function is not implemented.
Cleanup the pattern in the decref() functions in both qpcache.c and
qpzone.c, so it follows the similar patter as we already have in
newref() function.
Changes introducing the support of extended DNS error code 1 and 2 uses

Changes !9948 introducing the support of extended DNS error code 1 and 2
uses SHA-1 digest for some tests which break FIPS platform. The digest
itself was irrelevant, another digest is used.
Instead of mixing the dns_resolver and dns_validator units directly with
the EDE code, split-out the dns_ede functionality into own separate
compilation unit and hide the implementation details behind abstraction.
Additionally, the new dns_edelist_t doesn't have to be copied into all
responses as those are attached to the fetch context, but it could be
only passed by reference.
This makes the dns_ede implementation simpler to use, although sligtly
more complicated on the inside.

In order to avoid to loop to find the next position to store an EDE in
a dns_edectx_t, add a "nextede" state which holds the next available
position.
Also, in order ot avoid to loop to find if an EDE is already existing in
a dns_edectx_t, and avoid a duplicate, use a bitmap to immediately know
if the EDE is there or not.
Those both changes applies for adding or copying EDE.
Also make the direction of dns_ede_copy more explicit/avoid errors by
making "edectx_from" a const pointer.
Migrate tests cases in client_test code which were exclusively testing
code which is now all wrapped inside ede compilation unit. Those are
testing maximum number of EDE, duplicate EDE as well as truncation of
text of an EDE.
Also add coverage for the copy of EDE from an edectx to another one, as
well as checking the assertion of the maximum EDE info code which can be
used.

Things to consider:
- FreeBSD DoH jobs are not added because Flamethrower queries always timeout.
- This adds 15 more CI jobs:
- Linux (AWS autoscaler): `(auth + recursive + RPZ) * (DoH + DoT) * (amd64 + arm64) = 12`
- FreeBSD (one FreeBSD runner): `(auth + recursive + RPZ) * (DoT) * (amd64) = 3`
- Autoscaler is not yet present on FreeBSD. Adding 3 CI jobs (i.e., DoT) run serially adds 3 hours to the pipeline runtime. Should we add just one FreeBSD DoT job to limit the runtime?
- DoH/DoT performance is slightly lower than pure TCP, so the threshold for the test to pass must be lowered by 5-10% (see isc-private/bind-qa!40).
Merge branch 'mnowak/stress-test-with-doh-dot' into 'main'
See merge request isc-projects/bind9!5800
Add DoH and DoT stress test jobs. The DoH scenario on FreeBSD is omitted
because all Flamethrower's DoH queries timeout on this platform.
Since the response rate of DoT queries is lower than that of DoH and
TCP, the expected TCP response rate is 80%.
Due to the large number of similar stress test configurations, the
"util/generate-stress-test-configs.py" script now generates them as part
of a downstream pipeline. The script is expected to be run exclusively
within the CI environment, which sources all environmental variables and
files.
This refactoring brought the following changes:
- To start a stress test immediately and not wait for artifacts of the
autoreconf job, run the "autoreconf -fi" command as part of every job.
- Drop the BIND_STRESS_TEST_* variables as they were rarely used and
conflicted with mode and platform selection in the configuration
generator.
- Most pipelines now include a few short, randomly selected stress test
jobs. To schedule all stress tests, set the ALL_BIND_STRESS_TESTS
environmental variable, push a tag to CI, or run a scheduled pipeline.
- Set the BIND_STRESS_TESTS_RUN_TIME environmental variable to pick the
stress test runtime of your choosing, set the BIND_STRESS_TESTS_RATE
environmental variable to set different than the default query rate.
- Job timeout is set to 30 minutes plus stress test runtime in minutes.
Extended DNS error 22 (No reachable authority) was previously detected when `fctx_expired` fired. It turns out this function is used as a "safety net" and the timeout detection should be caught earlier.
It was working though, because of another issue fixed by !9927. But then, the recursive request timed out detection occurs before `fctx_expired` making impossible to raise the EDE 22 error.
This fixes the problem by triggering the EDE 22 in the part of the code detecting the (TCP or UDP) time out and taking the decision to cancel the whole fetch (i.e. There is no other server to attempt to contact).
Note this is not targeting users (no release note) because there is no release versions of BIND between !9927 and this changes. Thus a release note would be confusing.
Closes#5137
Merge branch '5137-ede22' into 'main'

When an EDE code is added to a message, the code is converted early in a
big-endian order so it can be memcpy-ed directly in the EDE buffer that
will go on the wire.
This previous change forget to update debug logs which still assume the
EDE code was in host byte order. Add a separate variable to
differentiate both and avoid ambiguities
When EDE 3 (stale answer) was added the serve-stale tests were checking
for those exclusively, i.e. grepping for no "EDE" in the dig output when
no stale answer was expected.
However, some stale tests disable stale answers and make the
authoritative server unresponsive, effectively triggering a timed out
request thus an EDE 22. Update those tests so they still tests the
absence of EDE 3 error, but also the presence of EDE 22.
This re-do a previously existing EDE 22 system test as well as add
another one making sure the timed out flow detection works also on UDP
when the resolver is contacting the authoritative server. (the existing
test was using TCP to contact the authoritative servers).
Extended DNS error 22 (No reachable authority) was previously detected
when `fctx_expired` fired. It turns out this function is used as a
"safety net" and the timeout detection should be caught earlier.
It was working though, because of another issue fixed by !9927. Since
this change, the recursive request timed out detection occurs before
`fctx_expired` so EDE 22 is not added to the response message anymore.
The fix of the problem is to add the EDE 22 code in two situations:
- When the dispatch code timed out (rctx_timedout) the resolver code
checks various properties to figure out if it needs to make another
fetch attempt. One of the paramters if the fetch expiration time. If
it expires, the whole recursion is canceled, so it now adds the EDE 22
code.
- If the fetch expiration time doesn't expires in the case above (and
other parameters allows it) a new fetch attempt is made (fctx_query).
But before the new request is actually made, the fetch expiration time
is re-checked. It might then has elapsed, and the whole recursion is
canceled. So it now also adds the EDE 22 code here as well.
The new command is `rndc memprof`. The memory profiling status is also

See merge request isc-projects/bind9!9948
A DNSSEC validation can fail in the case where multiple DNSKEY are

reasons: one has a DS record in the parent zone using an unsupported
digest while the other one uses an unsupported encryption algorithm.

extended DNS error are provided: code 1 and 2, each of them highlighting
unsupported algorithm and digest.

ISCCC_R_SYNTAX, ISCCC_R_EXPIRED, and ISCCC_R_CLOCKSKEW have the
same usage and text formats as DNS_R_SYNTAX, DNS_R_EXPIRED and
DNS_R_CLOCKSCREW respectively. this was originally done because
result codes were defined in separate libraries, and some tool
might be linked with libisccc but not libdns. as the result codes
are now defined in only one place, there's no need to retain the
duplicates.
building BIND without crypto support is no longer possible.
consequently this result code is never sent, and therefore we
don't need code in calling functions to handle it.
the isc_mem allocation functions can no longer fail; as a result,
ISC_R_NOMEMORY is now rarely used: only when an external library
such as libjson-c or libfstrm could return NULL. (even in
these cases, arguably we should assert rather than returning
ISC_R_NOMEMORY.)
code and comments that mentioned ISC_R_NOMEMORY have been
cleaned up, and the following functions have been changed to
type void, since (in most cases) the only value they could
return was ISC_R_SUCCESS:

Adjust the limit of maximum disagreements in respdiff results based on

to allow for some tolerance due to network conditions, time of day etc.
The respdiff:third-party has a slightly higher disagreements average,
with typical values being around 0.12 %. Set the limit to 0.2 %.
Exceeding either of those values should be quite clear indication that
some resolution behaviour has changed, since the values appear to be
very stable within the newly configured limits.

In the case when `dnssec-signzone` is called on an already signed zone, and the private key file is unavailable, a signature that needs to be refreshed may be dropped without being able to generate a replacement. This has been fixed.

Merge branch '5126-dnssec-signzone-retain-rrsig-if-key-is-offline' into 'main'
See merge request isc-projects/bind9!9951
Track inside the dns_dnsseckey structure whether we have seen the
private key, or if this key only has a public key file.
If the key only has a public key file, or a DNSKEY reference in the
zone, mark the key 'pubkey'. In dnssec-signzone, if the key only
has a public key available, consider the key to be offline. Any
signatures that should be refreshed for which the key is not available,
retain the signature.
So in the code, 'expired' becomes 'refresh', and the new 'expired'
is only used to determine whether we need to keep the signature if
the corresponding key is not available (retaining the signature if
it is not expired).
In the 'keysthatsigned' function, we can remove:
- key->force_publish = false;
- key->force_sign = false;
because they are redundant ('dns_dnsseckey_create' already sets these
values to false).
Add a test case for the scenario below.
There is a case when signing a zone with dnssec-signzone where the
private key file is moved outside the key directory (for offline
ksk purposes), and then the zone is resigned. The signature of the
DNSKEY needs refreshing, but is not expired.
Rather than removing the signature without having a valid replacement,
leave the signature in the zone (despite it needs to be refreshed).
If the generated status output exceeds 4096 it was silently truncated, now we output that the status was truncated.

Extended DNS error mechanism (EDE) may have several errors raised during a DNS resolution. `named` is now able to add up to three EDE codes in a DNS response. In the case of duplicate error codes, only the first one will be part of the DNS response.
Closes#5085
Merge branch '5085-multiple-ede' into 'main'
See merge request isc-projects/bind9!9952
Extended DNS error mechanism (EDE) enables to have several EDE raised
during a DNS resolution (typically, a DNSSEC query will do multiple
fetches which each of them can have an error). Add support to up to 3
EDE errors in an DNS response. If duplicates occur (two EDEs with the
same code, the extra text is not compared), only the first one will be
part of the DNS answer.
Because the maximum number of EDE is statically fixed, `ns_client_t`
object own a static vector of `DNS_DE_MAX_ERRORS` (instead of a linked
list, for instance). The array can be fully filled (all slots point to
an allocated `dns_ednsopt_t` object) or partially filled (or
empty). In such case, the first NULL slot means there is no more EDE
objects.
When 'ISC_R_TIMEDOUT' is received in 'tcp_recv()', it times out the
oldest response in the active responses queue, and only after that it
checks whether other active responses have also timed out. So when
setting a timeout value for a read operation after a successful
connection, it makes sense to take the timeout value from the oldest
response in the active queue too, because, theoretically, the responses
can have different timeout values, e.g. when the TCP dispatch is shared.
Currently 'resp' is always NULL. Previously when connect and read timeouts
were not separated in dispatch this affected only logging, but now since
we are setting a new timeout after a successful connection, we need to
choose a suitable response from the active queue.
Merge branch 'aram/dispatch-tcp_connected-fix' into 'main'

Since the read timeout now works, the resolver time outs from the
dispatch level instead of from the "hung fetch" timer, and so the
EDE value in 'fctx_expired()' is not being set. Remove the expected
EDE value from the test.
When TCP is used, 'fctx_query()' adds one second to the rtt
(round-trip time) value, but there's a bug when the decision
about using TCP is made already after the calculation. Move the
block of the code which looks up the peers list to decide
whether to use TCP into a place that's before the rtt calculation
is performed. This commit doesn't add or remove any code, it just
moves the code and adds a comment block.

Prevent lock contention among many worker threads referring to the same database node at the same time. This would improve zone and cache database performance for the heavily contended database nodes.

Merge branch '5130-reduce-lock-contention-in-decrement-reference' into 'main'
See merge request isc-projects/bind9!9963
Previously, this function always acquires a node write lock if it
might need node cleanup in case the reference decrements to 0. In
fact, the lock is unnecessary if the reference is larger than 1 and it
can be optimized as an "easy" case. This optimization could even be
"necessary". In some extreme cases, many worker threads could repeat
acquring and releasing the reference on the same node, resulting in
severe lock contention for nothing (as the ref wouldn't decrement to 0
in most cases). This change would prevent noticeable performance
drop like query timeout for such cases.

Shutdown the fetch context immediately after the last fetch has been canceled from
that particular fetch context.
Merge branch 'ondrej/shutdown-the-fetch-context-early' into 'main'
See merge request isc-projects/bind9!9958
Currently, the fetch context will continue running even when the last
fetch (response) has been removed from the context, so named can process
and cache the answer. This can lead to a situation where the number of
outgoing recursing clients exceeds the the configured number for
recursive-clients.
Be more stringent about the recursive-clients limit and shutdown the
fetch context immediately after the last fetch has been canceled from
that particular fetch context.
Resolver under heavy-load could exhaust the memory available for storing
the information in the Address Database (ADB) effectively evicting already
stored information in the ADB. The memory used to retrieve and provide
information from the ADB is now not a subject of the same memory limits
that are applied for storing the information in the Address Database.
Closes#5127
Merge branch '5127-change-ADB-memory-split' into 'main'
See merge request isc-projects/bind9!9954
Address Database (ADB) shares the memory for the short lived ADB
objects (finds, fetches, addrinfo) and the long lived ADB
objects (names, entries, namehooks). This could lead to a situation
where the resolver-heavy load would force evict ADB objects from the
database to point where ADB is completely empty, leading to even more
resolver-heavy load.
Make the short lived ADB objects use the other memory context that we
already created for the hashmaps. This makes the ADB overmem condition
to not be triggered by the ongoing resolver fetches.

Fix DNS-over-HTTP(S) implementation issues that arise under heavy
query load. Optimize resource usage for :iscman:`named` instances
that accept queries over DNS-over-HTTP(S).
Previously, :iscman:`named` would process all incoming HTTP/2 data
at once, which could overwhelm the server, especially when dealing
with clients that send requests but don't wait for responses. That
has been fixed. Now, :iscman:`named` handles HTTP/2 data in smaller
chunks and throttles reading until the remote side reads the
response data. It also throttles clients that send too many requests
at once.
Additionally, :iscman:`named` now carefully processes data sent by
some clients, which can be considered "flooding." It logs these
clients and drops connections from them.
:gl:`#4795`
In some cases, :iscman:`named` could leave DNS-over-HTTP(S)
connections in the `CLOSE_WAIT` state indefinitely. That also has
been fixed. ISC would like to thank JF Billaud for thoroughly
investigating the issue and verifying the fix.

We started using isc_nm_bad_request() more actively throughout
codebase. In the case of HTTP/2 it can lead to a large count of
useless "Bad Request" messages in the BIND log, as often we attempt to
send such request over effectively finished HTTP/2 sessions.
This commit fixes that.
A call to isc_nm_read_stop() would always stop reading timer even in
manual timer control mode which was added with StreamDNS in mind. That
looks like an omission that happened due to how timers are controlled
in StreamDNS where we always stop the timer before pausing reading
anyway (see streamdns_on_complete_dnsmessage()). That would not work
well for HTTP, though, where we might want pause reading without
stopping the timer in the case we want to split incoming data into
multiple chunks to be processed independently.
I suppose that it happened due to NM refactoring in the middle of
StreamDNS development (at the time isc_nm_cancelread() and
isc_nm_pauseread() were removed), as the StreamDNS code seems to be
written as if timers are not stoping during a call to
isc_nm_read_stop().
This commit introduces manual read timer control as used by StreamDNS
and its underlying transports. Before that, DoH code would rely on the
timer control provided by TCP, which would reset the timer any time
some data arrived. Now, the timer is restarted only when a full DNS
message is processed in line with other DNS transports.
That change is required because we should not stop the timer when
reading from the network is paused due to throttling. We need a way to
drop timed-out clients, particularly those who refuse to read the data
we send.
This commit adds logic to make code better protected against clients
that send valid HTTP/2 data that is useless from a DNS server
perspective.
Firstly, it adds logic that protects against clients who send too
little useful (=DNS) data. We achieve that by adding a check that
eventually detects such clients with a nonfavorable useful to
processed data ratio after the initial grace period. The grace period
is limited to processing 128 KiB of data, which should be enough for
sending the largest possible DNS message in a GET request and then
some. This is the main safety belt that would detect even flooding
clients that initially behave well in order to fool the checks server.
Secondly, in addition to the above, we introduce additional checks to
detect outright misbehaving clients earlier:
The code will treat clients that open too many streams (50) without
sending any data for processing as flooding ones; The clients that
managed to send 1.5 KiB of data without opening a single stream or
submitting at least some DNS data will be treated as flooding ones.
Of course, the behaviour described above is nothing else but
heuristical checks, so they can never be perfect. At the same time,
they should be reasonable enough not to drop any valid clients,
realatively easy to implement, and have negligible computational
overhead.
Initially, our DNS-over-HTTP(S) implementation would try to process as
much incoming data from the network as possible. However, that might
be undesirable as we might create too many streams (each effectively
backed by a ns_client_t object). That is too forgiving as it might
overwhelm the server and trash its memory allocator, causing high CPU
and memory usage.
Instead of doing that, we resort to processing incoming data using a
chunk-by-chunk processing strategy. That is, we split data into small
chunks (currently 256 bytes) and process each of them
asynchronously. However, we can process more than one chunk at
once (up to 4 currently), given that the number of HTTP/2 streams has
not increased while processing a chunk.
That alone is not enough, though. In addition to the above, we should
limit the number of active streams: these streams for which we have
received a request and started processing it (the ones for which a
read callback was called), as it is perfectly fine to have more opened
streams than active ones. In the case we have reached or surpassed the
limit of active streams, we stop reading AND processing the data from
the remote peer. The number of active streams is effectively decreased
only when responses associated with the active streams are sent to the
remote peer.
Overall, this strategy is very similar to the one used for other
stream-based DNS transports like TCP and TLS.
When answering queries, don't add data to the additional section if the answer has more than 13 names in the RDATA. This limits the number of lookups into the database(s) during a single client query, reducing query processing load.
See isc-projects/bind9#5034
Merge branch '5034-security-limit-additional' into 'v9.21.4-release'
See merge request isc-private/bind9!750
Limit the number of records appended to ADDITIONAL section to the names
that have less than 14 records in the RDATA. This limits the number
of the lookups into the database(s) during single client query.
Also don't append any additional data to ANY queries. The answer to ANY
is already big enough.
Instead of running the whole resolver/ns4 server with -T noaa flag,
use it only for the part where it is actually needed. The -T noaa
could interfere with other parts of the test because the answers don't
have the authoritative-answer bit set, and we could have false
positives (or false negatives) in the test because the authoritative
server doesn't follow the DNS protocol for all the tests in the resolver
system test.
All the database implementations share the same names for the methods
implementing the database. That has some advantages like knowing what
to expect, but it turns out that any time such method shows up in any
kind of tracing - be it perf record, backtrace or anything else that
uses symbol names, it is very hard to distinguish whether the find()
belongs to qpcache, qpzone, builtin or sdlz implementation.
Make at least the names for qpzone and qpcache unique.
