The three functions has been modeled after the arc4random family of
functions, and they will always return random bytes.
The isc_random family of functions internally use these CSPRNG (if available):
1. getrandom() libc call (might be available on Linux and Solaris)
2. SYS_getrandom syscall (might be available on Linux, detected at runtime)
3. arc4random(), arc4random_buf() and arc4random_uniform() (available on BSDs and Mac OS X)
4. crypto library function:
4a. RAND_bytes in case OpenSSL
4b. pkcs_C_GenerateRandom() in case PKCS#11 library
Replace dns_fixedname_init() calls followed by dns_fixedname_name()
calls with calls to dns_fixedname_initname() where it is possible
without affecting current behavior and/or performance.
This patch was mostly prepared using Coccinelle and the following
semantic patch:
@@
expression fixedname, name;
@@
- dns_fixedname_init(&fixedname);
...
- name = dns_fixedname_name(&fixedname);
+ name = dns_fixedname_initname(&fixedname);
The resulting set of changes was then manually reviewed to exclude false
positives and apply minor tweaks.
It is likely that more occurrences of this pattern can be refactored in
an identical way. This commit only takes care of the low-hanging fruit.
4708. [cleanup] Legacy Windows builds (i.e. for XP and earlier)
are no longer supported. [RT #45186]
4707. [func] The lightweight resolver daemon and library (lwresd
and liblwres) have been removed. [RT #45186]
4706. [func] Code implementing name server query processing has
been moved from bin/named to a new library "libns".
Functions remaining in bin/named are now prefixed
with "named_" rather than "ns_". This will make it
easier to write unit tests for name server code, or
link name server functionality into new tools.
[RT #45186]
3705. [func] "configure --enable-native-pkcs11" enables BIND
to use the PKCS#11 API for all cryptographic
functions, so that it can drive a hardware service
module directly without the need to use a modified
OpenSSL as intermediary (so long as the HSM's vendor
provides a complete-enough implementation of the
PKCS#11 interface). This has been tested successfully
with the Thales nShield HSM and with SoftHSMv2 from
the OpenDNSSEC project. [RT #29031]
by Andrew Tridgell of the Samba project.) [RT #22629]
2988. [experimental] Added a "dlopen" DLZ driver, allowing the creation
of external DLZ drivers that can be loaded as
shared objects at runtime rather than linked with
named. Currently this is switched on via a
compile-time option, "configure --with-dlz-dlopen".
Note: the syntax for configuring DLZ zones
is likely to be refined in future releases.

2987. [func] Improve ease of configuring TKEY/GSS updates by
adding a "tkey-gssapi-keytab" option. If set,
updates will be allowed with any key matching
a principal in the specified keytab file.
"tkey-gssapi-credential" is no longer required
and is expected to be deprecated. (Contributed
by Andrew Tridgell of the Samba project.)
[RT #22629]
error.
1653. [func] Add key type checking to dst_key_fromfilename(),
DST_TYPE_KEY should be used to read TSIG, TKEY and
SIG(0) keys.
1652. [bug] TKEY still uses KEY.
Cleanup of redundant/useless header file inclusion.
ISC style lint, primarily for function declarations and standalone
comments -- ie, those that appear on a line without any code, which
should be written as follows:
/*
* This is a comment.
*/
Added:
isc_buffer_base(b) (pointer)
isc_buffer_current(b) (pointer)
isc_buffer_active(b) (pointer)
isc_buffer_used(b) (pointer)
isc_buffer_length(b) (int)
isc_buffer_usedlength(b) (int)
isc_buffer_consumedlength(b) (int)
isc_buffer_remaininglength(b) (int)
isc_buffer_activelength(b) (int)
isc_buffer_availablelength(b) (int)
Removed:
ISC_BUFFER_USEDCOUNT(b)
ISC_BUFFER_AVAILABLECOUNT(b)
isc_buffer_type(b)
Changed names:
isc_buffer_used(b, r) ->
isc_buffer_usedregion(b, r)
isc_buffer_available(b, r) ->
isc_buffer_available_region(b, r)
isc_buffer_consumed(b, r) ->
isc_buffer_consumedregion(b, r)
isc_buffer_active(b, r) ->
isc_buffer_activeregion(b, r)
isc_buffer_remaining(b, r) ->
isc_buffer_remainingregion(b, r)
Buffer types were removed, so the ISC_BUFFERTYPE_*
macros are no more, and the type argument to
isc_buffer_init and isc_buffer_allocate were removed.
isc_buffer_putstr is now void (instead of isc_result_t)
and requires that the caller ensure that there
is enough available buffer space for the string.
