All changes in this commit were automated using the command:
shfmt -w -i 2 -ci -bn . $(find . -name "*.sh.in")
By default, only *.sh and files without extension are checked, so
*.sh.in files have to be added additionally. (See mvdan/sh#944)
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 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 regression test for CVE-2020-8620 causes a lot of useless messages
to be logged. However, globally decreasing the log level for the
affected named instance would be a step too far as debugging information
may be useful for troubleshooting other checks in the "tcp" system test.
Starting a separate named instance for a single check should be avoided
when possible and thus is also not a good solution. As a compromise,
run "rndc trace 1" for the affected named instance before starting the
regression test for CVE-2020-8620.
the tcp system test uses the 'packet.pl' test tool to send a packet
thousands of times. this took a long time because the tool was waiting
for replies and parsing them; however, for that particular test the
replies aren't relevant.
this commit uses non-blocking sockets and moves the reply parsing
outside the send loop, which speeds the system test up substantially.
The test for assertion failure via large TCP packet needs to be repeated
multiple times (we use 300000). This commit fixes the input file to be
properly hexlified and uses the new packet.pl -r feature to send it
300000 times via TCP.
The $SYSTEMTESTTOP shell variable if often set to .. in various shell
scripts inside bin/tests/system/, but most of the time it is only
used one line later, while sourcing conf.sh. This hardly improves
code readability.
$SYSTEMTESTTOP is also used for the purpose of referencing
scripts/files living in bin/tests/system/, but given that the
variable is always set to a short, relative path, we can drop it and
replace all of its occurrences with the relative path without adversely
affecting code readability.
The rewrite of BIND 9 build system is a large work and cannot be reasonable
split into separate merge requests. Addition of the automake has a positive
effect on the readability and maintainability of the build system as it is more
declarative, it allows conditional and we are able to drop all of the custom
make code that BIND 9 developed over the years to overcome the deficiencies of
autoconf + custom Makefile.in files.
This squashed commit contains following changes:
- conversion (or rather fresh rewrite) of all Makefile.in files to Makefile.am
by using automake
- the libtool is now properly integrated with automake (the way we used it
was rather hackish as the only official way how to use libtool is via
automake
- the dynamic module loading was rewritten from a custom patchwork to libtool's
libltdl (which includes the patchwork to support module loading on different
systems internally)
- conversion of the unit test executor from kyua to automake parallel driver
- conversion of the system test executor from custom make/shell to automake
parallel driver
- The GSSAPI has been refactored, the custom SPNEGO on the basis that
all major KRB5/GSSAPI (mit-krb5, heimdal and Windows) implementations
support SPNEGO mechanism.
- The various defunct tests from bin/tests have been removed:
bin/tests/optional and bin/tests/pkcs11
- The text files generated from the MD files have been removed, the
MarkDown has been designed to be readable by both humans and computers
- The xsl header is now generated by a simple sed command instead of
perl helper
- The <irs/platform.h> header has been removed
- cleanups of configure.ac script to make it more simpler, addition of multiple
macros (there's still work to be done though)
- the tarball can now be prepared with `make dist`
- the system tests are partially able to run in oot build
Here's a list of unfinished work that needs to be completed in subsequent merge
requests:
- `make distcheck` doesn't yet work (because of system tests oot run is not yet
finished)
- documentation is not yet built, there's a different merge request with docbook
to sphinx-build rst conversion that needs to be rebased and adapted on top of
the automake
- msvc build is non functional yet and we need to decide whether we will just
cross-compile bind9 using mingw-w64 or fix the msvc build
- contributed dlz modules are not included neither in the autoconf nor automake
The initial tcp statistics test was not testing tcp-highwater counter,
but only initial number of current TCP clients, so this missing test was
added to ensure initial tcp-highwater value is correct.
Make the "tcp" system test fail if the Python tool used for establishing
TCP connections (ans6) logs a result different than "OK" after
processing a command sent to it (as that means the tool was unable to
successfully perform the requested action), with the exception of
cleanup errors at the end of the test which can be safely ignored. Note
that the tool not returning any result at all in 10 seconds is still a
fatal error in all cases.
With the netmgr in use, named may start answering queries before zones
are loaded. This can cause transient failures in system tests after
servers are restarted or reconfigured. This commit adds retry loops
and sleep statements where needed to address this problem.
Also incidentally silenced a clang warning.
Ensure any unexpected failure in the "tcp" system test causes it to be
immediately interrupted with an error to make the aforementioned test
more reliable. Since the exit code for "expr 0 + 0" is 1, the status
variable needs to be updated using arithmetic expansion.
In the TCP high-water checks, "rndc stats" is run after ans6 reports
that it opened the requested number of TCP connections. However, we
fail to account for the fact that ns5 might not yet have called accept()
for these connections, in which case the counts output by "rndc stats"
will be off. To prevent intermittent "tcp" system test failures, allow
the relevant connection count checks to be retried (just once, after one
second, as that should be enough for any system to accept() a dozen TCP
connections under any circumstances).
Add a shell function which is used in the "tcp" system test, but has
been accidentally omitted from !2425. Make sure the function does not
change the value of "ret" itself, so that the caller can decide what to
do with the function's return value.
- 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
