Evan Hunt a00f9e2f50 [master] merge dyndb 
4224.	[func]		Added support for "dyndb", a new interface for loading
			zone data from an external database, developed by
			Red Hat for the FreeIPA project.

			DynDB drivers fully implement the BIND database
			API, and are capable of significantly better
			performance and functionality than DLZ drivers,
			while taking advantage of advanced database
			features not available in BIND such as multi-master
			replication.

			Thanks to Adam Tkac and Petr Spacek of Red Hat.

On servers configured to perform DNSSEC validation using
managed trust anchors (i.e., keys configured explicitly
via <command>managed-keys</command>, or implicitly
via <command>dnssec-validation auto;</command> or
<command>dnssec-lookaside auto;</command>), revoking
a trust anchor and sending a new untrusted replacement

botched key rollover, or potentially as a result of a
deliberate attack if the attacker was in position to

<listitem>
<para>
A flaw in delegation handling could be exploited to put
<command>named</command> into an infinite loop, in which
each lookup of a name server triggered additional lookups
of more name servers. This has been addressed by placing
limits on the number of levels of recursion
<command>named</command> will allow (default 7), and
on the number of queries that it will send before
terminating a recursive query (default 50).
</para>
<para>
The recursion depth limit is configured via the
<option>max-recursion-depth</option> option, and the query limit
via the <option>max-recursion-queries</option> option.

<para>
Two separate problems were identified in BIND's GeoIP code that
could lead to an assertion failure. One was triggered by use of
both IPv4 and IPv6 address families, the other by referencing
a GeoIP database in <filename>named.conf</filename> which was
not installed. Both are covered by CVE-2014-8680. [RT #37672]
[RT #37679]
</para>
<para>
A less serious security flaw was also found in GeoIP: changes
to the <command>geoip-directory</command> option in
<filename>named.conf</filename> were ignored when running
<command>rndc reconfig</command>. In theory, this could allow
<command>named</command> to allow access to unintended clients.

Added support for DynDB, a new interface for loading zone data
from an external database, developed by Red Hat for the FreeIPA
project. (Thanks in particular to Adam Tkac and Petr
&Scaron;pa&ccaron;ek of Red Hat for the contribution.)
</para>
<para>
Unlike the existing DLZ and SDB interfaces, which provide a
limited subset of database functionality within BIND &mdash;
translating DNS queries into real-time database lookups with
relatively poor performance and with no ability to handle
DNSSEC-signed data &mdash; DynDB is able to fully implement
and extend the database API used natively by BIND.
</para>
<para>
A DynDB module could pre-load data from an external data
source, then serve it with the same performance and
functionality as conventional BIND zones, and with the
ability to take advantage of database features not
available in BIND, such as multi-master replication.
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
New quotas have been added to limit the queries that are
sent by recursive resolvers to authoritative servers
experiencing denial-of-service attacks. When configured,
these options can both reduce the harm done to authoritative
servers and also avoid the resource exhaustion that can be
experienced by recursives when they are being used as a
vehicle for such an attack.
</para>
<itemizedlist>
<listitem>
<para>
<option>fetches-per-server</option> limits the number of
simultaneous queries that can be sent to any single
authoritative server. The configured value is a starting
point; it is automatically adjusted downward if the server is
partially or completely non-responsive. The algorithm used to
adjust the quota can be configured via the
<option>fetch-quota-params</option> option.
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
<option>fetches-per-zone</option> limits the number of
simultaneous queries that can be sent for names within a
single domain. (Note: Unlike "fetches-per-server", this
value is not self-tuning.)
</para>
</listitem>
</itemizedlist>
<para>
Statistics counters have also been added to track the number
of queries affected by these quotas.
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
New statistics counters have been added to track traffic
sizes, as specified in RSSAC002. Query and response
message sizes are broken up into ranges of histogram buckets:
TCP and UDP queries of size 0-15, 16-31, ..., 272-288, and 288+,
and TCP and UDP responses of size 0-15, 16-31, ..., 4080-4095,
and 4096+. These values can be accessed via the XML and JSON
statistics channels at, for example,
<ulink url="http://localhost:8888/xml/v3/traffic"
>http://localhost:8888/xml/v3/traffic</ulink>
or
<ulink url="http://localhost:8888/json/v1/traffic"
>http://localhost:8888/json/v1/traffic</ulink>.

</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
The serial number of a dynamically updatable zone can
now be set using
<command>rndc signing -serial <replaceable>number</replaceable> <replaceable>zonename</replaceable></command>.
This is particularly useful with <option>inline-signing</option>
zones that have been reset. Setting the serial number to a value
larger than that on the slaves will trigger an AXFR-style
transfer.
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
When answering recursive queries, SERVFAIL responses can now be
cached by the server for a limited time; subsequent queries for
the same query name and type will return another SERVFAIL until
the cache times out. This reduces the frequency of retries
when a query is persistently failing, which can be a burden
on recursive serviers. The SERVFAIL cache timeout is controlled
by <option>servfail-ttl</option>, which defaults to 10 seconds
and has an upper limit of 30.
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
The new <command>rndc nta</command> command can now be used to
set a "negative trust anchor" (NTA), disabling DNSSEC validation for
a specific domain; this can be used when responses from a domain
are known to be failing validation due to administrative error
rather than because of a spoofing attack. NTAs are strictly
temporary; by default they expire after one hour, but can be
configured to last up to one week. The default NTA lifetime
can be changed by setting the <option>nta-lifetime</option> in
<filename>named.conf</filename>. When added, NTAs are stored in a
file (<filename><replaceable>viewname</replaceable>.nta</filename>)
in order to persist across restarts of the <command>named</command> server.
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
The EDNS Client Subnet (ECS) option is now supported for
authoritative servers; if a query contains an ECS option then
ACLs containing <option>geoip</option> or <option>ecs</option>
elements can match against the the address encoded in the option.
This can be used to select a view for a query, so that different
answers can be provided depending on the client network.
</para>

The EDNS EXPIRE option has been implemented on the client
side, allowing a slave server to set the expiration timer

<para>
The rate limiter configured by the
<option>serial-query-rate</option> option no longer covers
NOTIFY messages; those are now separately controlled by
<option>notify-rate</option> and

controls the rate of NOTIFY messages sent when the server
is first started up or reconfigured).

The default number of tasks and client objects available

<command>named</command> will now check to see whether
other name server processes are running before starting up.
This is implemented in two ways: 1) by refusing to start

specified by the <option>lock-file</option> option or
the <command>-X</command> command line option. The
default lock file is
<filename>/var/run/named/named.lock</filename>.
Specifying <literal>none</literal> will disable the lock
file check.

<command>rndc delzone</command> can now be applied to zones

it is no longer restricted to zones which were added by

this does not edit <filename>named.conf</filename>; the zone
must be removed from the configuration or it will return
when <command>named</command> is restarted or reloaded.)

Added server-side support for pipelined TCP queries. Clients
may continue sending queries via TCP while previous queries are
processed in parallel. Responses are sent when they are
ready, not necessarily in the order in which the queries were
received.
</para>
<para>
To revert to the former behavior for a particular
client address or range of addresses, specify the address prefix

<para>
To enable better monitoring and troubleshooting of RFC 5011
trust anchor management, the new <command>rndc managed-keys</command>
can be used to check status of trust anchors or to force keys
to be refreshed. Also, the managed-keys data file now has
easier-to-read comments. [RT #38458]

<para>
An <command>--enable-querytrace</command> configure switch is
now available to enable very verbose query tracelogging. This
option can only be set at compile time. This option has a
negative performance impact and should be used only for
debugging. [RT #37520]
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
A new <command>tcp-only</command> option can be specified
in <command>server</command> statements to force
<command>named</command> to connect to the specified
server via TCP. [RT #37800]
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
The <command>nxdomain-redirect</command> option specifies
a DNS namespace to use for NXDOMAIN redirection. When a
recursive lookup returns NXDOMAIN, a second lookup is
initiated with the specified name appended to the query
name. This allows NXDOMAIN redirection data to be supplied
by multiple zones configured on the server or by recursive
queries to other servers. (The older method, using
a single <command>type redirect</command> zone, has
better average performance but is less flexible.) [RT #37989]

<para>
NXDOMAIN responses to queries of type DS are now cached separately
from those for other types. This helps when using "grafted" zones
of type forward, for which the parent zone does not contain a
delegation, such as local top-level domains. Previously a query
of type DS for such a zone could cause the zone apex to be cached
as NXDOMAIN, blocking all subsequent queries. (Note: This
change is only helpful when DNSSEC validation is not enabled.
"Grafted" zones without a delegation in the parent are not a
recommended configuration.)

The names of the files used to store managed keys and added
zones for each view are no longer based on the SHA256 hash
of the view name, except when this is necessary because the
view name contains characters that would be incompatible with use
as a file name. For views whose names do not contain forward
slashes ('/'), backslashes ('\'), or capital letters - which
could potentially cause namespace collision problems on
case-insensitive filesystems - files will now be named
after the view (for example, <filename>internal.mkeys</filename>
or <filename>external.nzf</filename>). However, to ensure
consistent behavior when upgrading, if a file using the old
name format is found to exist, it will continue to be used.

Asynchronous zone loads were not handled correctly when the
zone load was already in progress; this could trigger a crash

Policy zones that did not specifically require recursion
could be treated as if they did; consequently, setting
<command>qname-wait-recurse no;</command> was
sometimes ineffective. This has been corrected.
In most configurations, behavioral changes due to this
fix will not be noticeable. [RT #39229]

The server could crash if policy zones were updated (e.g.
via <command>rndc reload</command> or an incoming zone
transfer) while RPZ processing was still ongoing for an
active query. [RT #39415]

On servers with one or more policy zones configured as
slaves, if a policy zone updated during regular operation
(rather than at startup) using a full zone reload, such as
via AXFR, a bug could allow the RPZ summary data to fall out
of sync, potentially leading to an assertion failure in
rpz.c when further incremental updates were made to the
zone, such as via IXFR. [RT #39567]

The server could match a shorter prefix than what was
available in CLIENT-IP policy triggers, and so, an
unexpected action could be taken. This has been
corrected. [RT #39481]

The server could crash if a reload of an RPZ zone was
