The lock-file configuration (both from configuration file and -X
argument to named) has better alternatives nowadays. Modern process
supervisor should be used to ensure that a single named process is
running on a given configuration.
Alternatively, it's possible to wrap the named with flock(1).
The old name "common" clashes with the convention of system test
directory naming. It appears as a system test directory, but it only
contains helper files.
To reduce confusion and to allow automatic detection of issues with
possibly missing test files, rename the helper directory to "_common".
The leading underscore indicates the directory is different and the its
name can no longer be confused with regular system test directories.
This adds an island of trust that is reachable from the root
where the trust anchors are added to island.conf.
This add an island of trust that is not reachable from the root
where the trust anchors are added to private.conf.
This commit converts the license handling to adhere to the REUSE
specification. It specifically:
1. Adds used licnses to LICENSES/ directory
2. Add "isc" template for adding the copyright boilerplate
3. Changes all source files to include copyright and SPDX license
header, this includes all the C sources, documentation, zone files,
configuration files. There are notes in the doc/dev/copyrights file
on how to add correct headers to the new files.
4. Handle the rest that can't be modified via .reuse/dep5 file. The
binary (or otherwise unmodifiable) files could have license places
next to them in <foo>.license file, but this would lead to cluttered
repository and most of the files handled in the .reuse/dep5 file are
system test files.
The ISC_MEM_DEBUGSIZE and ISC_MEM_DEBUGCTX did sanity checks on matching
size and memory context on the memory returned to the allocator. Those
will no longer needed when most of the allocator will be replaced with
jemalloc.
In order to lower the amount of memory allocated at startup by named
instances used in the BIND system test suite, set the default value of
"max-cache-size" for these to 2 megabytes. The purpose of this change
is to prevent named instances (or even entire virtual machines) from
getting killed by the operating system on the test host due to excessive
memory use.
Remove all "max-cache-size" statements from named configuration files
used in system tests ("checkconf" notwithstanding) to prevent confusion
as the "-T maxcachesize=..." command line option takes precedence over
configuration files.
- ns__client_request() is now called by netmgr with an isc_nmhandle_t
parameter. The handle can then be permanently associated with an
ns_client object.
- The task manager is paused so that isc_task events that may be
triggred during client processing will not fire until after the netmgr is
finished with it. Before any asynchronous event, the client MUST
call isc_nmhandle_ref(client->handle), to prevent the client from
being reset and reused while waiting for an event to process. When
the asynchronous event is complete, isc_nmhandle_unref(client->handle)
must be called to ensure the handle can be reused later.
- reference counting of client objects is now handled in the nmhandle
object. when the handle references drop to zero, the client's "reset"
callback is used to free temporary resources and reiniialize it,
whereupon the handle (and associated client) is placed in the
"inactive handles" queue. when the sysstem is shutdown and the
handles are cleaned up, the client's "put" callback is called to free
all remaining resources.
- because client allocation is no longer handled in the same way,
the '-T clienttest' option has now been removed and is no longer
used by any system tests.
- the unit tests require wrapping the isc_nmhandle_unref() function;
when LD_WRAP is supported, that is used. otherwise we link a
libwrap.so interposer library and use that.
The "check key refreshes are resumed after root servers become
available" check may trigger a false positive for the "mkeys" system
test if the second example/TXT query sent by dig is received by ns5 less
than a second after it receives a REFUSED response to the upstream query
it sends to ns1 in order to resolve the first example/TXT query sent by
dig. Since that REFUSED response from ns1 causes ns5 to return a
SERVFAIL answer to dig, example/TXT is added to the SERVFAIL cache,
which is enabled by default with a TTL of 1 second. This in turn may
cause ns5 to return a cached SERVFAIL response to the second example/TXT
query sent by dig, i.e. make ns5 not perform full query processing as
expected by the check.
Since the primary purpose of the check in question is to ensure that key
refreshes are resumed once initially unavailable root servers become
available, the optimal solution appears to be disabling SERVFAIL cache
for ns5 as doing that still allows the check to fulfill its purpose and
it is arguably more prudent than always sleeping for 1 second.
- 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
4798. [func] Keys specified in "managed-keys" statements
are tagged as "initializing" until they have been
updated by a key refresh query. If initialization
fails it will be visible from "rndc secroots".
[RT #46267]
This reverts commit 560d8b833e.
This change created a potential race between key refresh queries and
root zone priming queries which could leave the root name servers in
the bad-server cache.
4773. [bug] Keys specified in "managed-keys" statements
can now only be used when validating key refresh
queries during initialization of RFC 5011 key
maintenance. If initialization fails, DNSSEC
validation of normal queries will also fail.
Previously, validation of normal queries could
succeed using the initializing key, potentially
masking problems with managed-keys. [RT #46077]
