The coccinellery repository provides many little semantic patches to fix common
problems in the code. The number of semantic patches in the coccinellery
repository is high and most of the semantic patches apply only for Linux, so it
doesn't make sense to run them on regular basis as the processing takes a lot of
time.
The list of issue found in BIND 9, by no means complete, includes:
- double assignment to a variable
- `continue` at the end of the loop
- double checks for `NULL`
- useless checks for `NULL` (cannot be `NULL`, because of earlier return)
- using `0` instead of `NULL`
- useless extra condition (`if (foo) return; if (!foo) { ...; }`)
- removing & in front of static functions passed as arguments
Including <sys/errno.h> instead of <errno.h> raises a compiler warning
when building against musl libc. Always include <errno.h> instead of
<sys/errno.h> to prevent that compilation warning from being triggered
and to achieve consistency in this regard across the entire source tree.
- removed some dead code
- dns_zone_setdbtype is now void as it could no longer return
anything but ISC_R_SUCCESS; calls to it no longer check for a result
- controlkeylist_fromconfig() is also now void
- fixed a whitespace error
The ax_check_openssl m4 macro used OPENSSL_INCLUDES. Rename the
subst variable to OPENSSL_CFLAGS and wrap AX_CHECK_OPENSSL() in
action-if-not-found part of PKG_CHECK_MODULE check for libcrypto.
The json-c have previously leaked into the global namespace leading
to forced -I<include_path> for every compilation unit using isc/xml.h
header. This MR fixes the usage making the caller object opaque.
The libxml2 have previously leaked into the global namespace leading
to forced -I<include_path> for every compilation unit using isc/xml.h
header. This MR fixes the usage making the caller object opaque.
removed the SDB databases in contrib/sdb as they hadn't been
maintained in some time, and were no longer able to link to named
without modification. also:
- cleaned up contrib/README, which still referred to contrib
subdirectores that were removed already, and linked to an obsolete URL.
- removed references to sdb in doc/misc/roadmap and doc/misc/sdb.
- Replace external -DOPENSSL/-DPKCS11CRYPTO with properly AC_DEFINEd
HAVE_OPENSSL/HAVE_PKCS11
- Don't enforce the crypto provider from platform.h, just from dst_api.c
and configure scripts
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.
