Add a system test for the case where resolution SERVFAILs because the
fetch context reaches the `max-query-count` threshold while following a
CNAME.
Resolving the CNAME target independently should still work, because the
SERVFAIL cache stores the original query name rather than the target.

Since internal communications are now Zulip based, CI jobs now target
Zulip instead of Mattermost. The `MATTERMOST_WEBHOOK_URL` environment
variable is no longer needed, scripts now use `ZULIP_SERVER_URL` and
`ZULIP_API_KEY`.
In order to harmonize Zulip messaging, `message_zulip.py` is used where
curl calls to the webhook were previously used.

The rpz servfail-until-ready test assumed a particular policy zone always
finished loading last, which only holds when zone updates run in parallel;
on a single CPU (or with serialized offload) it could fail spuriously. It now
polls until RPZ reports ready instead.

RPZ is ready only once every policy zone has completed its first update,
and the zones do not finish in a fixed order, so whenever the updates
run serially (per-loop offload, or any single-CPU run): 'slow-rpz' zone
can finish before the others and the query still gets SERVFAIL. Poll
the query until it returns NOERROR instead.

Fold the libuv thread pool and the per-loop isc_helper threads into a single
isc_work pool. Each (loop, lane) gets its own SPSC queue and worker, which drops
the shared-queue contention, and the FAST/SLOW lanes keep short crypto tasks off
the long blocking ones (zone dump/load, xfrin). isc_work jobs are now cancelable:
isc_work_cancel() tombstones a still-queued job and its after_cb fires with
ISC_R_CANCELED, so abandoned work can be dropped instead of run to completion.

Offloaded work used two different mechanisms: a per-loop isc_helper
thread for CPU-bound crypto (DNSSEC validation, message signature
checks) and the process-global libuv thread pool for blocking I/O (zone
load and dump, inbound transfer apply). Neither could cancel a queued
task, and the two disagreed about exclusive mode — the helper paused
with its loop under isc_loopmgr_pause() but the libuv pool did not, so
blocking offloaded work kept running while a loop held the exclusive
lock.
Unify both behind isc_work: each loop gets its own worker thread per
lane — FAST for short, bounded tasks and SLOW for long, blocking ones —
fed by a private queue. Separate lanes keep a short crypto task off the
path of a multi-second zone dump once both run on per-loop workers;
every lane parks with isc_loopmgr_pause() so exclusive mode now quiesces
offloaded work too; and a still-queued task can be canceled before it
starts (isc_work_cancel). isc_helper is removed and its callers select a
lane.

Previously, when the additional section of a response was being

opportunistically validated. The code implementing this validation was
not quite formally correct. Rather than fixing it, the code has been

The removal of the secondary validator in lib/ns/query.c now means
that some responses will omit additional data or NS records in the
authority section that had pending trust. Some test cases have been
revised or deleted to take this into account.
Exclude ansX directories from vulture, as splitting up the handlers into

We no longer want to encourage people to open new issues via email because we are getting too many spammy reports generated by LLM.

isc__nm_http_request()'s error path reloaded sock->h2->connect.cstream after client_send() had already detached and freed it on a submit failure, dereferencing NULL. The helper is only used by the DoH unit tests. Guard the cleanup path against the detached stream.

See merge request isc-projects/bind9!12249
On a submit failure, client_send() nullifies sock->h2->connect.cstream
and frees the stream before returning the error. The error: label in
isc__nm_http_request() reloaded that pointer and dereferenced it
unconditionally, reading through a NULL stream. The function is only
used by the DoH unit tests -- production DoH client send goes through
isc__nm_http_send()/client_httpsend(), whose submit failure is reported
via the NULL-safe send callback -- so this is a latent defect in the
test helper rather than a reachable named crash.
Skip the read callback when the stream has already been detached and
let the caller report the failure from the error result it receives.

It was possible to use a maliciously crafted authoritative

When using a cached DNAME to resolve a name, make sure to consult
the denied answers lists, otherwise it is possible to consutruct
a restricted alias by caching a DNAME that is a parent of the
denied alias. See the comments in the tests case from the previous
commit an example.
(cherry picked from commit 45c1d760a8)
This new check exercises an attack against guarantees given by the
'deny-answer-aliases' configuration option by caching a DNAME
that is a parent of the restricted alias, and then "constructing"
the restricted alias from the cache.

When the connect callback's result is ISC_R_SUCCESS and the callback

Configure a zone transfer using XoT (with opportunistic TLS) from
a non-DoT port, which does not provide ALPN "dot" (in this case
it will try to connect to a DoH port). This is expected to fail,
but the client should handle the error gracefully and not to crash.

CONTRIBUTING.md documents the Assisted-by trailer format as
Assisted-by: AGENT_NAME:MODEL_VERSION [TOOL1] [TOOL2]
and excludes basic development tools (git, compilers, meson,
ninja, editors, clang-format, black, ruff) from the optional
tool list.
Walk every `Assisted-by:` line in each commit message and emit a
`warn()` when:
- the line does not match the documented `AGENT:VERSION` shape;
- the optional tool list contains basic-tool names.
The basic-tool list extends the CONTRIBUTING.md examples with
other formatters, generic linters, and build/test runners
commonly invoked from `.gitlab-ci.yml`. Specialized analysis
tools (coccinelle, clang-tidy, AFL, Coverity, cppcheck,
valgrind, sanitizers) are intentionally absent so they remain
allowed in the trailer.
Use `warn()` rather than `fail()` because the format is
human-written and overly strict matching would produce false
positives on edge cases.

CONTRIBUTING.md states that AI agents must not add Signed-off-by
tags, since only humans can legally certify the Developer
Certificate of Origin. Mirror the existing LLM Co-Authored-By
check against the Signed-off-by trailer line so danger fails on
commits that violate the rule.
The shared alternation of known LLM agent names is factored out
into LLM_AGENT_NAMES_RE so adding a new tool only requires one
edit.

a known LLM (Claude, Codex, Mistral, Copilot, Gemini, Cursor,
Devin, Aider, Sourcegraph, CodeWhisperer).
For any other `Co-Authored-By:` trailer, emit an info-level
`message()` that includes the full trailer line so reviewers can
confirm the named co-author is a human contributor and not an
unrecognised AI tool.

parametrization over -k matching. Fix the directory naming rule, which
switched from hyphens to underscores.
Also declare pytest and pytest-xdist as required dependencies: the
