Add a hard limit on the number of addresses that ADB returns from a
single NS lookup (dns_adbfind_t). This mitigates a flood attack
where an attacker controls a zone with many addresses for a
nameserver, each returning an invalid response. The global
max-query count (default 50) also limits this, but significant harm
can be done before that limit is reached.
The default limit is now 6 (v4 and/or v6) addresses for an ADB find (so,
ADB looking up for A/AAAA addresses of a name server name). It can be
overridden for testing via 'named -T adbaddrslimit=N'.

Cap the number of in-flight queries on a single shared TCP dispatch.
When the limit is reached, the dispatch is removed from the hash
table so subsequent queries get a fresh connection. The existing
dispatch continues serving its queries until they complete.
This bounds the blast radius of a connection drop: at most N queries
fail simultaneously instead of all queries to that server.
The default limit is 256. It can be overridden for testing via
'named -T tcppipelining=N'.
(cherry picked from commit 385ceabe8f)
ADB entry window and ADB min cache time can be tweaked using `named -T
adbentrywindow=<unsigned int>` and `named -T adbmincache=<unsigned
int>`.
While those values doesn't needs to be exposed to the operator, this can
be needed to be able to system test ADB behaviors without having to wait
as long as those values are by default.

The memory context for managers and dlz_dlopen_driver units had no name
and that was causing trouble with the statistics channel output. Set
the name for the two memory context that were missing a proper name.

When -T cookiealwaysvalid is passed to named, DNS cookie checks for
the incoming queries always pass, given they are structurally correct.

Commit 4b3d0c6600 has removed them, but
did not remove few traces in documentation and help. Remove them from
remaining places.
(cherry picked from commit 65b9eeb39a)
Since the fatal() isn't a correct but rather abrupt termination of the
program, we want to skip the various atexit() calls because not all
memory might be freed during fatal() call, etc. Using _exit() instead
of exit() has this effect - the program will end, but no destructors or
atexit routines will be called.
The lock-file configuration (both from configuration file and -X
argument to named) has better alternatives nowadays. Modern process
supervisor should be used to ensure that a single named process is
running on a given configuration.
Alternatively, it's possible to wrap the named with flock(1).
Instead of high number of dispatches (4 * named_g_udpdisp)[1], make the
dispatches bound to threads and make dns_dispatchset_t create a dispatch
for each thread (event loop).
This required couple of other changes:
1. The dns_dispatch_createudp() must be called on loop, so the isc_tid()
is already initialized - changes to nsupdate and mdig were required.
2. The dns_requestmgr had only a single dispatch per v4 and v6. Instead
of using single dispatch, use dns_dispatchset_t for each protocol -
this is same as dns_resolver.
There are libraries which are reported in printversion(), but not
reported in setup(). Synchronize the functions, so that the log
file could have the same information as reported by the 'named -V'
command execution.
The autoconf and named -V now prints used version of jemalloc. This
doesn't work with system supplied jemalloc, so in it prints `system`
instead in the autoconf and nothing in named -V output.
The ability to read legacy HMAC-MD5 K* keyfile pairs using algorithm
number 157 was accidentally lost when the algorithm numbers were
consolidated into a single block, in commit
09f7e0607a.
The assumption was that these algorithm numbers were only known
internally, but they were also used in key files. But since HMAC-MD5
got renumbered from 157 to 160, legacy HMAC-MD5 key files no longer
work.
Move HMAC-MD5 back to 157 and GSSAPI back to 160. Add exception for
GSSAPI to list_hmac_algorithms.
'-T transferinsecs' makes named interpret the max-transfer-time-out,
max-transfer-idle-out, max-transfer-time-in and max-transfer-idle-in
configuration options as seconds instead of minutes.
'-T transferslowly' makes named to sleep for one second for every
xfrout message.
'-T transferstuck' makes named to sleep for one minute for every
xfrout message.
isc_loopmgr_pause can't be called before isc_loopmgr_run is
called as the thread ids are not yet valid. If there is a
fatal error before isc_loopmgr_run is run then don't call
isc_loopmgr_pause.
Cleanup the remnants of MS Compiler bits from <isc/refcount.h>, printing
the information in named/main.c, and cleanup some comments about Windows
that no longer apply.
The bits in picohttpparser.{h,c} were left out, because it's not our
code.
The isc_time_now() and isc_time_now_hires() were used inconsistently
through the code - either with status check, or without status check,
or via TIME_NOW() macro with RUNTIME_CHECK() on failure.
Refactor the isc_time_now() and isc_time_now_hires() to always fail when
getting current time has failed, and return the isc_time_t value as
return value instead of passing the pointer to result in the argument.
It's sometimes helpful to get a quick idea of the call stack when
debugging. This change factors out the backtrace logging from named's
fatal error handler so that it's easy to use in other places too.
Completely remove the TKEY Mode 2 (Diffie-Hellman Exchanged Keying) from
BIND 9 (from named, named.conf and all the tools). The TKEY usage is
fringe at best and in all known cases, GSSAPI is being used as it should.
The draft-eastlake-dnsop-rfc2930bis-tkey specifies that:
4.2 Diffie-Hellman Exchanged Keying (Deprecated)
The use of this mode (#2) is NOT RECOMMENDED for the following two
reasons but the specification is still included in Appendix A in case
an implementation is needed for compatibility with old TKEY
implementations. See Section 4.6 on ECDH Exchanged Keying.
The mixing function used does not meet current cryptographic
standards because it uses MD5 [RFC6151].
RSA keys must be excessively long to achieve levels of security
required by current standards.
We might optionally implement Elliptic Curve Diffie-Hellman (ECDH) key
exchange mode 6 if the draft ever reaches the RFC status. Meanwhile the
insecure DH mode needs to be removed.
Named now logs both compile time and run time UV versions when
starting up. This is useful information to have when debugging
network issues involving named.
as there is no further use of isc_task in BIND, this commit removes
it, along with isc_taskmgr, isc_event, and all other related types.
functions that accepted taskmgr as a parameter have been cleaned up.
as a result of this change, some functions can no longer fail, so
they've been changed to type void, and their callers have been
updated accordingly.
the tasks table has been removed from the statistics channel and
the stats version has been updated. dns_dyndbctx has been changed
to reference the loopmgr instead of taskmgr, and DNS_DYNDB_VERSION
has been udpated as well.
the built-in trust anchors in named and delv are sufficent for
validation. named still needs to be able to load trust anchors from
a bind.keys file for testing purposes, but it doesn't need to be
the default behavior.
we now only load trust anchors from a file if explicitly specified
via the "bindkeys-file" option in named or the "-a" command line
argument to delv. documentation has been cleaned up to remove references
to /etc/bind.keys.
Closes#3850.
DSCP has not been fully working since the network manager was
introduced in 9.16, and has been completely broken since 9.18.
This seems to have caused very few difficulties for anyone,
so we have now marked it as obsolete and removed the
implementation.
To ensure that old config files don't fail, the code to parse
dscp key-value pairs is still present, but a warning is logged
that the feature is obsolete and should not be used. Nothing is
done with configured values, and there is no longer any
range checking.
The only function left in the isc_resource API was setting the file
limit. Replace the whole unit with a simple getrlimit to check the
maximum value of RLIMIT_NOFILE and set the maximum back to rlimit_cur.
This is more compatible than trying to set RLIMIT_UNLIMITED on the
RLIMIT_NOFILE as it doesn't work on Linux (see man 5 proc on
/proc/sys/fs/nr_open), neither it does on Darwin kernel (see man 2
getrlimit).
The only place where the maximum value could be raised under privileged
user would be BSDs, but the `named_os_adjustnofile()` were not called
there before. We would apply the increased limits only on Linux and Sun
platforms.
After deprecating the operating system limits settings (coresize,
datasize, files and stacksize), mark them as ancient and remove the code
that sets the values from config.
I.e. print the name of the function in BIND that called the system
function that returned an error. Since it was useful for pthreads
code, it seems worthwhile doing so everywhere.

There's a known memory leak in the engine_pkcs11 at the time of writing
this and it interferes with the named ability to check for memory leaks
in the OpenSSL memory context by default.
Add an autoconf option to explicitly enable the memory leak detection,
and use it in the CI except for pkcs11 enabled builds. When this gets
fixed in the engine_pkc11, the option can be enabled by default.
As we can't check the deallocations done in the library memory contexts
by default because it would always fail on non-clean exit (that happens
on error or by calling exit() early), we just want to enable the checks
to be done on normal exit.
The libxml2 library provides a way to replace the default allocator with
user supplied allocator (malloc, realloc, strdup and free).
Create a memory context specifically for libxml2 to allow tracking the
memory usage that has originated from within libxml2. This will provide
a separate memory context for libxml2 to track the allocations and when
shutting down the application it will check that all libxml2 allocations
were returned to the allocator.
Additionally, move the xmlInitParser() and xmlCleanupParser() calls from
bin/named/main.c to library constructor/destructor in libisc library.
The usage of xmlInitThreads() and xmlCleanupThreads() functions in
libxml2 is now marked as deprecated, and these functions will be made
private in the future.
Use xmlInitParser() and xmlCleanupParser() instead of them.
Previously:
* applications were using isc_app as the base unit for running the
application and signal handling.
* networking was handled in the netmgr layer, which would start a
number of threads, each with a uv_loop event loop.
* task/event handling was done in the isc_task unit, which used
netmgr event loops to run the isc_event calls.
In this refactoring:
* the network manager now uses isc_loop instead of maintaining its
own worker threads and event loops.
* the taskmgr that manages isc_task instances now also uses isc_loopmgr,
and every isc_task runs on a specific isc_loop bound to the specific
thread.
* applications have been updated as necessary to use the new API.
* new ISC_LOOP_TEST macros have been added to enable unit tests to
run isc_loop event loops. unit tests have been updated to use this
where needed.
* isc_timer was rewritten using the uv_timer, and isc_timermgr_t was
completely removed; isc_timer objects are now directly created on the
isc_loop event loops.
* the isc_timer API has been simplified. the "inactive" timer type has
been removed; timers are now stopped by calling isc_timer_stop()
instead of resetting to inactive.
* isc_manager now creates a loop manager rather than a timer manager.
* modules and applications using isc_timer have been updated to use the
new API.
The isc_task_onshutdown() was used to post event that should be run when
the task is being shutdown. This could happen explicitly in the
isc_test_shutdown() call or implicitly when we detach the last reference
to the task and there are no more events posted on the task.
This whole task onshutdown mechanism just makes things more complicated,
and it's easier to post the "shutdown" events when we are shutting down
explicitly and the existing code already always knows when it should
shutdown the task that's being used to execute the onshutdown events.
Replace the isc_task_onshutdown() calls with explicit calls to execute
the shutdown tasks.
As we are going to use libuv outside of the netmgr, we need the shims to
be readily available for the rest of the codebase.
Move the "netmgr/uv-compat.h" to <isc/uv.h> and netmgr/uv-compat.c to
uv.c, and as a rule of thumb, the users of libuv should include
<isc/uv.h> instead of <uv.h> directly.
Additionally, merge netmgr/uverr2result.c into uv.c and rename the
single function from isc__nm_uverr2result() to isc_uverr2result().
It might be useful to display built-in configuration with all its
values. It should make it easier to test what default values has changed
in a new release.
