previously, when an iterative query returned FORMERR, resolution
would be stopped under the assumption that other servers for
the same domain would likely have the same capabilities. this
assumption is not correct; some domains have been reported for
which some but not all servers will return FORMERR to a given
query; retrying allows recursion to succeed.
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.
Add a system test that counts how many address fetches are made
for different numbers of NS records and checks that the number
are successfully limited.
Commit ba91243542 causes the resolver to
respond to a client query with FORMERR when all upstream queries sent to
the servers authoritative for QNAME elicit FORMERR responses. This
happens because resolver code returns DNS_R_FORMERR in such a case and
dns_result_torcode() acts as a pass-through for all arguments which are
already a valid RCODE.
The correct RCODE to set in the response returned to the client in the
case described above is SERVFAIL. Make sure this happens by overriding
the RCODE in query_gotanswer(), on the grounds that any format errors in
the client query itself should be caught long before execution reaches
that point. This change should not reduce query error logging accuracy
as the resolver code itself reports the exact reason for returning a
DNS_R_FORMERR result using log_formerr().
