Implement a helper function which, given an input string:
- copies it verbatim if it contains at least one path separator,
- prepends the named plugin installation directory to it otherwise.
This function will allow configuration parsing code to conveniently
determine the full path to a plugin module given either a path or a
filename.
While other, simpler ways exist for making sure filenames passed to
dlopen() cause the latter to look for shared objects in a specific
directory, they are very platform-specific. Using full paths is thus
likely the most portable and reliable solution.
Also added unit tests for ns_plugin_expandpath() to ensure it behaves
as expected for absolute paths, relative paths, and filenames, for
various target buffer sizes.
(Note: plugins share a directory with named on Windows; there is no
default plugin path. Therefore the source path is copied to the
destination path with no modification.)
- "hook" is now used only for hook points and hook actions
- the "hook" statement in named.conf is now "plugin"
- ns_module and ns_modlist are now ns_plugin and ns_plugins
- ns_module_load is renamed ns_plugin_register
- the mandatory functions in plugin modules (hook_register,
hook_check, hook_version, hook_destroy) have been renamed
- use a per-view module list instead of global hook_modules
- create an 'instance' pointer when registering modules, store it in
the module structure, and use it as action_data when calling
hook functions - this enables multiple module instances to be set
up in parallel
- also some nomenclature changes and cleanup
- temporary kluge! in this version, for testing purposes,
named always searches for a filter-aaaa module at /tmp/filter-aaaa.so.
this enables the filter-aaaa system test to run even though the
code to configure hooks in named.conf hasn't been written yet.
- filter-aaaa-on-v4, filter-aaaa-on-v6 and the filter-aaaa ACL are
still configured in the view as they were before, not in the hook.
- these formerly static helper functions have been moved into client.c
and made external so that they can be used in hook modules as well as
internally in libns: query_newrdataset, query_putrdataset,
query_newnamebuf, query_newname, query_getnamebuf, query_keepname,
query_releasename, query_newdbversion, query_findversion
- made query_recurse() and query_done() into public functions
ns_query_recurse() and ns_query_done() so they can be called from
modules.
- Replace external -DOPENSSL/-DPKCS11CRYPTO with properly AC_DEFINEd
HAVE_OPENSSL/HAVE_PKCS11
- Don't enforce the crypto provider from platform.h, just from dst_api.c
and configure scripts
4708. [cleanup] Legacy Windows builds (i.e. for XP and earlier)
are no longer supported. [RT #45186]
4707. [func] The lightweight resolver daemon and library (lwresd
and liblwres) have been removed. [RT #45186]
4706. [func] Code implementing name server query processing has
been moved from bin/named to a new library "libns".
Functions remaining in bin/named are now prefixed
with "named_" rather than "ns_". This will make it
easier to write unit tests for name server code, or
link name server functionality into new tools.
