the addition of support for ECS client information in DLZ
modules omitted some necessary changes to build modules
in contrib.
(cherry picked from commit d3fed6f400)
the dlzexternal test driver now includes ECS, if present in the
query, in the TXT record returned for QNAME "source-addr".
(cherry picked from commit 79ddedabf8)
Apparently we forgot about DLZ when updating DNS_CLIENTINFO_VERSION
constant for ECS, which is at value "3" since ECS was introduced.
The code in example drivers and tests now hardcodes version numbers
2 (without ECS) and 3 (with ECS) depending on what a given code path
requires.
(cherry picked from commit f81debe1c8)
This commit converts the license handling to adhere to the REUSE
specification. It specifically:
1. Adds used licnses to LICENSES/ directory
2. Add "isc" template for adding the copyright boilerplate
3. Changes all source files to include copyright and SPDX license
header, this includes all the C sources, documentation, zone files,
configuration files. There are notes in the doc/dev/copyrights file
on how to add correct headers to the new files.
4. Handle the rest that can't be modified via .reuse/dep5 file. The
binary (or otherwise unmodifiable) files could have license places
next to them in <foo>.license file, but this would lead to cluttered
repository and most of the files handled in the .reuse/dep5 file are
system test files.
Unify the header guard style and replace the inconsistent include guards
with #pragma once.
The #pragma once is widely and very well supported in all compilers that
BIND 9 supports, and #pragma once was already in use in several new or
refactored headers.
Using simpler method will also allow us to automate header guard checks
as this is simpler to programatically check.
For reference, here are the reasons for the change taken from
Wikipedia[1]:
> In the C and C++ programming languages, #pragma once is a non-standard
> but widely supported preprocessor directive designed to cause the
> current source file to be included only once in a single compilation.
>
> Thus, #pragma once serves the same purpose as include guards, but with
> several advantages, including: less code, avoidance of name clashes,
> and sometimes improvement in compilation speed. On the other hand,
> #pragma once is not necessarily available in all compilers and its
> implementation is tricky and might not always be reliable.

The Windows support has been completely removed from the source tree
and BIND 9 now no longer supports native compilation on Windows.
We might consider reviewing mingw-w64 port if contributed by external
party, but no development efforts will be put into making BIND 9 compile
and run on Windows again.
The rewrite of BIND 9 build system is a large work and cannot be reasonable
split into separate merge requests. Addition of the automake has a positive
effect on the readability and maintainability of the build system as it is more
declarative, it allows conditional and we are able to drop all of the custom
make code that BIND 9 developed over the years to overcome the deficiencies of
autoconf + custom Makefile.in files.
This squashed commit contains following changes:
- conversion (or rather fresh rewrite) of all Makefile.in files to Makefile.am
by using automake
- the libtool is now properly integrated with automake (the way we used it
was rather hackish as the only official way how to use libtool is via
automake
- the dynamic module loading was rewritten from a custom patchwork to libtool's
libltdl (which includes the patchwork to support module loading on different
systems internally)
- conversion of the unit test executor from kyua to automake parallel driver
- conversion of the system test executor from custom make/shell to automake
parallel driver
- The GSSAPI has been refactored, the custom SPNEGO on the basis that
all major KRB5/GSSAPI (mit-krb5, heimdal and Windows) implementations
support SPNEGO mechanism.
- The various defunct tests from bin/tests have been removed:
bin/tests/optional and bin/tests/pkcs11
- The text files generated from the MD files have been removed, the
MarkDown has been designed to be readable by both humans and computers
- The xsl header is now generated by a simple sed command instead of
perl helper
- The <irs/platform.h> header has been removed
- cleanups of configure.ac script to make it more simpler, addition of multiple
macros (there's still work to be done though)
- the tarball can now be prepared with `make dist`
- the system tests are partially able to run in oot build
Here's a list of unfinished work that needs to be completed in subsequent merge
requests:
- `make distcheck` doesn't yet work (because of system tests oot run is not yet
finished)
- documentation is not yet built, there's a different merge request with docbook
to sphinx-build rst conversion that needs to be rebased and adapted on top of
the automake
- msvc build is non functional yet and we need to decide whether we will just
cross-compile bind9 using mingw-w64 or fix the msvc build
- contributed dlz modules are not included neither in the autoconf nor automake
3821. [contrib] Added a new "mysqldyn" DLZ module with dynamic
update and transaction support. Thanks to Marty
Lee for the contribution. [RT #35656]
3820. [func] The DLZ API doesn't pass the database version to
the lookup() function; this can cause DLZ modules
that allow dynamic updates to mishandle prerequisite
checks. This has been corrected by adding a
'dbversion' field to the dns_clientinfo_t
structure. [RT #35656]
3523. [contrib] Ported filesystem and ldap DLZ drivers to
dynamically-loadable modules, and added the
"wildcard" module based on a contribution from
Vadim Goncharov <vgoncharov@nic.ru>. [RT #23569]
