begin converting DNSSEC validation tests from shell to python,
and simplify the name servers used in the test.
ns4, the name server used for validation tests, is now configured
using jinja2 templates.
ns8, which was previously used for testing unsupported, disabled
and revoked keys and trust anchors, has been removed. we now
use a jinja2 configuration in ns5 for this purpose.
the configurations in ns7 and ns6 didn't conflict with one another,
so the two servers have been merged into one.
It's possible to use pytest.mark.flaky, which achieves the exact same
thing as our custom-defined isctest.mark.flaky -- attempts to rerun the
test on failure, but only is flaky package is available.
The check "unix socket message counts" sometimes fails with "dnstap
output file smaller than expected". This only happens on freebsd13 and
can't be reproduced easily. There was an attempt to decrease the
required file size in the past, but apparently, the issue can still
occur.
These tests have been unstable under TSAN in the past, but it appears
that the same failure mode can happen outside of TSAN tests as well.
These tests have produced 12 failures combined in the past three weeks
in nightlies.
We skip those by default as:
a) we don't want to stress the upstream servers in every CI pipeline
b) system tests need to be runnable in a isolated environment by default
DNSRPS was the API for a commercial implementation of Response-Policy
Zones that was supposedly better. However, it was never open-sourced
and has only ever been available from a single vendor. This goes against
the principle that the open-source edition of BIND 9 should contain only
features that are generally available and universal.
This commit removes the DNSRPS implementation from BIND 9. It may be
reinstated in the subscription edition if there's enough interest from
customers, but it would have to be rewritten as a plugin (hook) instead
of hard-wiring it again in so many places.
The test_traffic_json and test_traffic_xml occasionally fail when
running under TSAN. This happens in CI and is most likely a result of
some instability that doesn't seem to be easily reproduced.
Previously, dnsrps test was executed as an optional part of the rpz and
rpzrecurse system tests. This was conceptually problematic, as the test
took the responsibility of running parts of the test framework -
cleaning files and setting up servers again.
Instead, allow these tests to execute either the native variant, or the
dnsrps one. To ensure the same test coverage, trigger both of these
variants as separate test cases from pytest.
