Commit aab691d512 did not fix all possible
scenarios in which the ns_statscounter_recursclients counter underflows.
The solution implemented therein can be ineffective e.g. when CNAME
chaining happens with prefetching enabled.
Here is an example recursive resolution scenario in which the
ns_statscounter_recursclients counter can underflow with the current
logic in effect:
1. Query processing starts, the answer is not found in the cache, so
recursion is started. The NS_CLIENTATTR_RECURSING attribute is set.
ns_statscounter_recursclients is incremented (Δ = +1).
2. Recursion completes, returning a CNAME. client->recursionquota is
non-NULL, so the NS_CLIENTATTR_RECURSING attribute remains set.
ns_statscounter_recursclients is decremented (Δ = 0).
3. Query processing restarts.
4. The current QNAME (the target of the CNAME from step 2) is found in
the cache, with a TTL low enough to trigger a prefetch.
5. query_prefetch() attaches to client->recursionquota.
ns_statscounter_recursclients is not incremented because
query_prefetch() does not do that (Δ = 0).
6. Query processing restarts.
7. The current QNAME (the target of the CNAME from step 4) is not found
in the cache, so recursion is started. client->recursionquota is
already attached to (since step 5) and the NS_CLIENTATTR_RECURSING
attribute is set (since step 1), so ns_statscounter_recursclients is
not incremented (Δ = 0).
8. The prefetch from step 5 completes. client->recursionquota is
detached from in prefetch_done(). ns_statscounter_recursclients is
not decremented because prefetch_done() does not do that (Δ = 0).
9. Recursion for the current QNAME completes. client->recursionquota
is already detached from, i.e. set to NULL (since step 8), and the
NS_CLIENTATTR_RECURSING attribute is set (since step 1), so
ns_statscounter_recursclients is decremented (Δ = -1).
Another possible scenario is that after step 7, recursion for the target
of the CNAME from step 4 completes before the prefetch for the CNAME
itself. fetch_callback() then notices that client->recursionquota is
non-NULL and decrements ns_statscounter_recursclients, even though
client->recursionquota was attached to by query_prefetch() and therefore
not accompanied by an incrementation of ns_statscounter_recursclients.
The net result is also an underflow.
Instead of trying to properly handle all possible orderings of events
set into motion by normal recursion and prefetch-triggered recursion,
adjust ns_statscounter_recursclients whenever the recursive clients
quota is successfully attached to or detached from. Remove the
NS_CLIENTATTR_RECURSING attribute altogether as its only purpose is made
obsolete by this change.

Extend the timeouts system test to ensure that the maximum outgoing
transfer time (max-transfer-time-out) and maximum outgoing transfer idle
time (max-transfer-idle-out) works as expected. This is done by
lowering the limits to 5/1 minutes and testing that the connection has
been dropped while sleeping between the individual XFR messages.
(cherry picked from commit 8fed1b6461)
While refactoring the libns to use the new network manager, the
max-transfer-*-out options were not implemented and they were turned
non-operational.
Reimplement the max-transfer-idle-out functionality using the write
timer and max-transfer-time-out using the new isc_nm_timer API.
(cherry picked from commit 8643bbab84)
While refactoring the lib/ns/xfrout.c, it was discovered that .shutdown
and .shutdown_arg members of ns_client_t structure are unused.
Remove the unused members and associated code that was using in it in
the ns_xfrout.

Use the isc_nmhandle_setwritetimeout() function in the netmgr unit test
to allow more time for writing and reading the responses because some of
the intervals that are used in the unit tests are really small leaving a
little room for any delays.
(cherry picked from commit ee359d6ffa)
In some situations (unit test and forthcoming XFR timeouts MR), we need
to modify the write timeout independently of the read timeout. Add a
isc_nmhandle_setwritetimeout() function that could be called before
isc_nm_send() to specify a custom write timeout interval.
(cherry picked from commit a89d9e0fa6)
Extend the timeouts system test that bursts the queries for large TXT
record and never read any responses back filling up the server TCP write
buffer. The test should work with the default wmem_max value on
Linux (208k).
(cherry picked from commit b735182ae0)
When the outgoing TCP write buffers are full because the other party is
not reading the data, the uv_write() could wait indefinitely on the
uv_loop and never calling the callback. Add a new write timer that uses
the `tcp-idle-timeout` value to interrupt the TCP connection when we are
not able to send data for defined period of time.
(cherry picked from commit 408b362169)
The uv_tcp_close_reset() function was added in libuv 1.32.0 and since we
support older libuv releases, we have to add a shim uv_tcp_close_reset()
implementation loosely based on libuv.
(cherry picked from commit cd3b58622c)
Before adding the write timer, we have to remove the generic sock->timer
to sock->read_timer. We don't touch the function names to limit the
impact of the refactoring.
(cherry picked from commit 45a73c113f)
The UV_RUNTIME_CHECK() macro requires to keep the function name in sync
like this:
r = func(...);
UV_RUNTIME_CHECK(func, r);
Add semantic patch to keep the function name and return variable in sync
with the previous line.
(cherry picked from commit 62bd5cb08c)
Replace the RUNTIME_CHECK() calls for libuv API calls with
UV_RUNTIME_CHECK() to get more detailed error message when
something fails and should not.
(cherry picked from commit 8715be1e4b)
When libuv functions fail, they return correct return value that could
be useful for more detailed debugging. Currently, we usually just check
whether the return value is 0 and invoke assertion error if it doesn't
throwing away the details why the call has failed. Unfortunately, this
often happen on more exotic platforms.
Add a UV_RUNTIME_CHECK() macro that can be used to print more detailed
error message (via uv_strerror() before ending the execution of the
program abruptly with the assertion.
(cherry picked from commit 62e15bb06d)
Add a note to the DNSSEC guide and to the ARM reference that A ZSK/KSK
pair used for signing your zone should have the same algorithm.
This commit also updates the 'dnssec-policy/keys' example to use the
slightly more modern 'rsasha256' algorithm.

Also make the script more verbose to identify which patch is being
processed and check for failures in spatch standard error output.

For users it's not really important if a RFC is Internet Standard,
Proposed Standard, or Experimental. RFCs are now regrouped by
"Protocol", Best Current Practice, and "catch all" category FYI.
(cherry picked from commit 7fd61f9403)
In 2022, IPv6 is not anything unusual, and it was really odd
to have it in a separate section next to a huge list of RFCs.
Fixes: #1918
