Since the "tkey-gssapi-credential" statement has been previously
deprecated, mark it as ancient and remove all code related to it:
- The code processing the "tkey-gssapi-credential" statement in the
configuration is the only user of the dst_gssapi_acquirecred() and
dst_gssapi_releasecred() functions, so remove them along with their
static helper functions and a backup definition of the
GSS_KRB5_MECHANISM macro.
- When calling gss_accept_sec_context(), pass GSS_C_NO_CREDENTIAL
instead of the credential acquired by gss_acquire_cred().
(Previously, NULL was passed when "tkey-gssapi-credential" was not
specified. Kerberos headers define GSS_C_NO_CREDENTIAL as
(gss_cred_id_t) 0, so the logic was effectively the same, but using
the GSS_C_NO_CREDENTIAL macro is more appropriate.) This renders
the 'cred' parameter for dst_gssapi_acceptctx() redundant, so remove
it from the prototype of the latter. (Contrary to what the
documentation for dst_gssapi_acceptctx() claims,
dst_gssapi_releasecred() does not need to subsequently be called to
free the GSS-API context; a dst_gssapi_deletectx() call in
gssapi_destroy() takes care of that when the dynamically generated
TSIG key is destroyed.)
- Remove the 'gsscred' member from struct dns_tkeyctx, along with its
related dns_gss_cred_id_t typedef.
Update the relevant sections of the ARM and code comments accordingly.
This makes the "tkey-gssapi-keytab" statement the only way to set up
GSS-TSIG in named.
Remove redundant code from bin/named/tkeyconf.c while at it.

Introduction
BIND (Berkeley Internet Name Domain) is a complete, highly portable implementation of the Domain Name System (DNS) protocol.
The BIND name server, named, can act as an authoritative name
server, recursive resolver, DNS forwarder, or all three simultaneously. It
implements views for split-horizon DNS, automatic DNSSEC zone signing and
key management, catalog zones to facilitate provisioning of zone data
throughout a name server constellation, response policy zones (RPZ) to
protect clients from malicious data, response rate limiting (RRL) and
recursive query limits to reduce distributed denial of service attacks,
and many other advanced DNS features. BIND also includes a suite of
administrative tools, including the dig and delv DNS lookup tools,
nsupdate for dynamic DNS zone updates, rndc for remote name server
administration, and more.
BIND 9 began as a complete rewrite of the BIND architecture that was used in versions 4 and 8. Internet Systems Consortium (https://www.isc.org), a 501(c)(3) US public benefit corporation dedicated to providing software and services in support of the Internet infrastructure, developed BIND 9 and is responsible for its ongoing maintenance and improvement. BIND is open source software licensed under the terms of the Mozilla Public License, version 2.0.
For a detailed list of changes made throughout the history of BIND 9, see the changelog.
For up-to-date versions and release notes, see https://www.isc.org/download/.
For information about supported platforms, see the "Supported Platforms" section in the BIND 9 Administrator Reference Manual.
Reporting bugs and getting help
To report non-security-sensitive bugs or request new features, you may open an issue in the BIND 9 project on the ISC GitLab server at https://gitlab.isc.org/isc-projects/bind9.
Please note that, unless you explicitly mark the newly created issue as
"confidential," it will be publicly readable. Please do not include any
information in bug reports that you consider to be confidential unless
the issue has been marked as such. In particular, if submitting the
contents of your configuration file in a non-confidential issue, it is
advisable to obscure key secrets; this can be done automatically by
using named-checkconf -px.
For information about ISC's Security Vulnerability Disclosure Policy and
information about reporting potential security issues, please see
SECURITY.md.
Professional support and training for BIND are available from ISC. Contact us at https://www.isc.org/contact for more information.
To join the BIND Users mailing list, or view the archives, visit https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users.
If you're planning on making changes to the BIND 9 source code, you may also want to join the BIND Workers mailing list, at https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-workers.
Contributing to BIND
ISC maintains a public git repository for BIND; details can be found at https://www.isc.org/sourceaccess/.
Information for BIND contributors can be found in the following files:
- General information: CONTRIBUTING.md
- Code of Conduct: CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md
- BIND 9 code style: doc/dev/style.md
- BIND architecture and developer guide: doc/dev/dev.md
Patches for BIND may be submitted as merge requests on the ISC GitLab server.
By default, external contributors do not have the ability to fork BIND on the GitLab server; if you wish to contribute code to BIND, you may request permission to do so. Thereafter, you can create git branches and directly submit requests that they be reviewed and merged.
If you prefer, you may also submit code by opening a
GitLab issue and
including your patch as an attachment, preferably generated by
git format-patch.
Building BIND 9
For information about building BIND 9, see the "Building BIND 9" section in the BIND 9 Administrator Reference Manual.
Automated testing
A system test suite can be run with pytest bin/tests/system. The system
tests require you to configure a set of virtual IP addresses on your system
(this allows multiple servers to run locally and communicate with each other).
These IP addresses can be configured by running the command
bin/tests/system/ifconfig.sh up as root.
Some tests require Perl and the Net::DNS and/or IO::Socket::IP modules,
and are skipped if these are not available. Some tests require Python
and the dnspython module and are skipped if these are not available.
See bin/tests/system/README for further details.
Unit tests are implemented using the CMocka unit testing framework. To build
them, use the option -Dcmocka=enabled. Execution of unit tests is done by the
meson's test functionality; run by meson test.
Documentation
The BIND 9 Administrator Reference Manual (ARM) is included with the source
distribution, and in .rst format, in the doc/arm
directory. The HTML version is automatically generated and can
be viewed at https://bind9.readthedocs.io/en/latest/index.html.
The PDF version can be built by running:
meson setup build
ninja -C build arm-pdf
The above requires TeX Live in order to work. The PDF will be written to
build/arm-pdf/latex/Bv9ARM.pdf.
Man pages for some of the programs in the BIND 9 distribution are also included in the BIND ARM.
Frequently (and not-so-frequently) asked questions and their answers can be found in the ISC Knowledgebase at https://kb.isc.org.
Additional information on various subjects can be found in other
README files throughout the source tree.
Bug report identifiers
Most notes in the ARM Changelog appendix include a reference to a bug report or
issue number. Prior to 2018, these were usually of the form [RT #NNN]
and referred to entries in the "bind9-bugs" RT database, which was not open
to the public. More recent entries use the form [GL #NNN] or, less often,
[GL !NNN], which, respectively, refer to issues or merge requests in the
GitLab database. Most of these are publicly readable, unless they include
information which is confidential or security-sensitive.
To look up a GitLab issue by its number, use the URL https://gitlab.isc.org/isc-projects/bind9/issues/NNN. To look up a merge request, use https://gitlab.isc.org/isc-projects/bind9/merge_requests/NNN.
In rare cases, an issue or merge request number may be followed with the letter "P". This indicates that the information is in the private ISC GitLab instance, which is not visible to the public.
