MSVC documentation states: "This warning can be caused when a pointer to
a const or volatile item is assigned to a pointer not declared as
pointing to const or volatile."
Unfortunately, this happens when we dynamically allocate and deallocate
block of atomic variables using isc_mem_get and isc_mem_put.
Couple of examples:
lib\isc\hp.c(134): warning C4090: 'function': different 'volatile' qualifiers [C:\builds\isc-projects\bind9\lib\isc\win32\libisc.vcxproj]
lib\isc\hp.c(144): warning C4090: 'function': different 'volatile' qualifiers [C:\builds\isc-projects\bind9\lib\isc\win32\libisc.vcxproj]

The InterlockedOr8() and InterlockedAnd8() first argument was cast
to (atomic_int_fast8_t) instead of (atomic_int_fast8_t *), this was
reported by MSVC as:
warning C4024: '_InterlockedOr8': different types for formal and actual parameter 1
warning C4024: '_InterlockedAnd8': different types for formal and actual parameter 1
On Windows, C11 localtime_r() and gmtime_r() functions are not
available. While localtime() and gmtime() functions are already thread
safe because they use Thread Local Storage, it's quite ugly to #ifdef
around every localtime_r() and gmtime_r() usage to make the usage also
thread-safe on POSIX platforms.
The commit adds wrappers around Windows localtime_s() and gmtime_s()
functions.
NOTE: The implementation of localtime_s and gmtime_s in Microsoft CRT
are incompatible with the C standard since it has reversed parameter
order and errno_t return type.
For BIND 9.16+, TLS aware compiler is required, and using
ISC_THREAD_LOCAL is preferred way of using Thread Local Storage. The
isc_thread_key API is no longer used anywhere and hence was removed from
BIND 9.
The new ISC_THREAD_LOCAL macro unifies usage of platform dependent
Thread Local Storage definition thread_local vs __thread vs
__declspec(thread) to a single macro.
The commit also unifies the required level of support for TLS as for
some parts of the code it was mandatory and for some parts of the code
it wasn't.
This is a replacement for the existing isc_socket and isc_socketmgr
implementation. It uses libuv for asynchronous network communication;
"networker" objects will be distributed across worker threads reading
incoming packets and sending them for processing.
UDP listener sockets automatically create an array of "child" sockets
so each worker can listen separately.
TCP sockets are shared amongst worker threads.
A TCPDNS socket is a wrapper around a TCP socket, which handles the
the two-byte length field at the beginning of DNS messages over TCP.
(Other wrapper socket types can be implemented in the future to handle
DNS over TLS, DNS over HTTPS, etc.)
Previously isc_thread_join() would return ISC_R_UNEXPECTED on a failure to
create new thread. All such occurences were caught and wrapped into assert
function at higher level. The function was simplified to assert directly in the
isc_thread_join() function and all caller level assertions were removed.
Previously isc_thread_create() would return ISC_R_UNEXPECTED on a failure to
create new thread. All such occurences were caught and wrapped into assert
function at higher level. The function was simplified to assert directly in the
isc_thread_create() function and all caller level assertions were removed.
Commit b104a9bc50 introduced unconditional
use of the ATOMIC_VAR_INIT() macro in bin/dnssec/dnssec-signzone.c even
though that macro is only defined on Unix platforms. Define it on
Windows systems as well in order to prevent build failures.
