Replace all uses of RUNTIME_CHECK() in lib/isc/include/isc/once.h with
PTHEADS_RUNTIME_CHECK(), in order to improve error reporting for any
once-related run-time failures (by augmenting error messages with
file/line/caller information and the error string corresponding to
errno).
Rewrite the isc_httpd to be more robust.
1. Replace the hand-crafted HTTP request parser with picohttpparser for
parsing the whole HTTP/1.0 and HTTP/1.1 requests. Limit the number
of allowed headers to 10 (arbitrary number).
2. Replace the hand-crafted URL parser with isc_url_parse for parsing
the URL from the HTTP request.
3. Increase the receive buffer to match the isc_netmgr buffers, so we
can at least receive two full isc_nm_read()s. This makes the
truncation processing much simpler.
4. Process the received buffer from single isc_nm_read() in a single
loop and schedule the sends to be independent of each other.
The first two changes makes the code simpler and rely on already
existing libraries that we already had (isc_url based on nodejs) or are
used elsewhere (picohttpparser).
The second two changes remove the artificial "truncation" limit on
parsing multiple request. Now only a request that has too many
headers (currently 10) or is too big (so, the receive buffer fills up
without reaching end of the request) will end the connection.
We can be benevolent here with the limites, because the statschannel
channel is by definition private and access must be allowed only to
administrators of the server. There are no timers, no rate-limiting, no
upper limit on the number of requests that can be served, etc.
PicoHTTPParser is a tiny, primitive, fast HTTP request/response parser.
Unlike most parsers, it is stateless and does not allocate memory by
itself. All it does is accept pointer to buffer and the output
structure, and setups the pointers in the latter to point at the
necessary portions of the buffer.
The isc_nm_udpconnect() erroneously set the reuse port with
load-balancing on the outgoing connected UDP sockets. This socket
option makes only sense for the listening sockets. Don't set the
load-balancing reuse port option on the outgoing UDP sockets.
This commit fixes TLS DNS verification error message reporting which
we probably broke during one of the recent networking code
refactorings.
This prevent e.g. dig from producing useful error messages related to
TLS certificates verification.
Ensure that TLS error is empty before calling SSL_get_error() or doing
SSL I/O so that the result will not get affected by prior error
statuses.
In particular, the improper error handling led to intermittent unit
test failure and, thus, could be responsible for some of the system
test failures and other intermittent TLS-related issues.
See here for more details:
https://www.openssl.org/docs/man3.0/man3/SSL_get_error.html
In particular, it mentions the following:
> The current thread's error queue must be empty before the TLS/SSL
> I/O operation is attempted, or SSL_get_error() will not work
> reliably.
As we use the result of SSL_get_error() to decide on I/O operations,
we need to ensure that it works reliably by cleaning the error queue.
TLS DNS: empty error queue before attempting I/O
The check is left from when tcp_connect_direct() called isc__nm_socket()
and it was uncertain whether it had succeeded, but now isc__nm_socket()
is called before tcp_connect_direct(), so sock->fd cannot be -1.

The value of `sign_bit` is platform-dependent but constant at compile
time. Use a cast to convert the boolean `sign_bit` to 0 or 1 instead of
ternary `?:` because one branch of the conditional is dead code. (We
could leave out the cast to `size_t` but our style prefers to handle
booleans more explicitly, hence the `?:` that caused the issue.)

In several places, the structures were cleaned with memset(...)) and
thus the semantic patch converted the isc_mem_get(...) to
isc_mem_getx(..., ISC_MEM_ZERO). Use the designated initializer to
initialized the structures instead of zeroing the memory with
ISC_MEM_ZERO flag as this better matches the intended purpose.
Add new semantic patch to replace the straightfoward uses of:
ptr = isc_mem_{get,allocate}(..., size);
memset(ptr, 0, size);
with the new API call:
ptr = isc_mem_{get,allocate}x(..., size, ISC_MEM_ZERO);
Previously, the isc_mem_get_aligned() and friends took alignment size as
one of the arguments. Replace the specific function with more generic
extended variant that now accepts ISC_MEM_ALIGN(alignment) for aligned
allocations and ISC_MEM_ZERO for allocations that zeroes
the (re-)allocated memory before returning the pointer to the caller.
Formerly, the isc_hash32() would have to change the key in a local copy
to make it case insensitive. Change the isc_siphash24() and
isc_halfsiphash24() functions to lowercase the input directly when
reading it from the memory and converting the uint8_t * array to
64-bit (respectively 32-bit numbers).
On systems with signed rlim_t the old code calculated its maximum
value by shifting 1 into the sign bit, which is undefined behaviour.
Avoid the bug by using an unsigned shift.
Because the dns_zonemgr_create() was run before the loopmgr was started,
the isc_ratelimiter API was more complicated that it had to be. Move
the dns_zonemgr_create() to run_server() task which is run on the main
loop, and simplify the isc_ratelimiter API implementation.
The isc_timer is now created in the isc_ratelimiter_create() and
starting the timer is now separate async task as is destroying the timer
in case it's not launched from the loop it was created on. The
ratelimiter tick now doesn't have to create and destroy timer logic and
just stops the timer when there's no more work to do.
This should also solve all the races that were causing the
isc_ratelimiter to be left dangling because the timer was stopped before
the last reference would be detached.
Unlike standard free(), isc_mem_free() is not a no-op when passed a
NULL pointer. For size accounting purposes it calls sallocx(), which
crashes when passed a NULL pointer. To get more helpful diagnostics,
REQUIRE() that the pointer is not NULL so that when the programmer
makes a mistake they get a backtrace that shows what went wrong.
The isc__nm_udp_send() callback would be called synchronously when
shutting down or when the socket has been closed. This could lead to
double locking in the calling code and thus those callbacks needs to be
called asynchronously.
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.
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 OpenSSL library provides a way to replace the default allocator with
user supplied allocator (malloc, realloc, and free).
Create a memory context specifically for OpenSSL to allow tracking the
memory usage that has originated from within OpenSSL. This will provide
a separate memory context for OpenSSL to track the allocations and when
shutting down the application it will check that all OpenSSL allocations
were returned to the allocator.
The libuv library provides a way to replace the default allocator with
user supplied allocator (malloc, realloc, calloc and free).
Create a memory context specifically for libuv to allow tracking the
memory usage that has originated from within libuv. This requires
libuv >= 1.38.0 which provides uv_library_shutdown() function that
assures no more allocations will be made.
Instead of using generic HAVE_BUILTIN_OVERFLOW, we need to check whether
the overflow functions actually work as there was a bug in GCC that it
would not detect mul overflow when compiled with `-m32` option without
optimizations and the bug was fixed only for GCC 6.5+ and 7.3+/8+.
For further details see: https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=82274
Previously, the isc_mem_debugging would be single global variable that
would affect the behavior of the memory context whenever it would be
changed which could be after some allocation were already done.
Change the memory debugging options to be local to the memory context
and immutable, so all allocations within the same memory context are
treated the same.
By bumping the minimum libuv version to 1.34.0, it allows us to remove
all libuv shims we ever had and makes the code much cleaner. The
up-to-date libuv is available in all distributions supported by BIND
9.19+ either natively or as a backport.
previously, when ISC_BUFFER_USEINLINE was defined, macros were
used to implement isc_buffer primitives (isc_buffer_init(),
isc_buffer_region(), etc). these macros were missing the DbC
assertions for those primitives, which made it possible for
coding errors to go undetected.
adding the assertions to the macros caused compiler warnings on
some platforms. therefore, this commit converts the ISC__BUFFER
macros to static inline functions instead, with assertions included,
and eliminates the non-inline implementation from buffer.c.
the --enable-buffer-useinline configure option has been removed.
The RAND_bytes() implementation differs between the OpenSSL versions and
uses the system entropy only for seeding its internal CSPRNG. The
uv_random() on the other hand uses the system provided CSPRNG.
Switch from RAND_bytes() to uv_random() to use system provided CSPRNG.
After the loopmgr work has been merged, we can now cleanup the TCP and
TLS protocols a little bit, because there are stronger guarantees that
the sockets will be kept on the respective loops/threads. We only need
asynchronous call for listening sockets (start, stop) and reading from
the TCP (because the isc_nm_read() might be called from read callback
again.
This commit does the following changes (they are intertwined together):
1. Cleanup most of the asynchronous events in the TCP code, and add
comments for the events that needs to be kept asynchronous.
2. Remove isc_nm_resumeread() from the netmgr API, and replace
isc_nm_resumeread() calls with existing isc_nm_read() calls.
3. Remove isc_nm_pauseread() from the netmgr API, and replace
isc_nm_pauseread() calls with a new isc_nm_read_stop() call.
4. Disable the isc_nm_cancelread() for the streaming protocols, only the
datagram-like protocols can use isc_nm_cancelread().
5. Add isc_nmhandle_close() that can be used to shutdown the socket
earlier than after the last detach. Formerly, the socket would be
closed only after all reading and sending would be finished and the
last reference would be detached. The new isc_nmhandle_close() can
be used to close the underlying socket earlier, so all the other
asynchronous calls would call their respective callbacks immediately.

Each isc_timer needs to be created, started and destroyed on the current
loop. The isc_timer_stop() can be run on any loop, but when run from
different loop than the one associated with the timer, the request to
stop the timer will be recorded in atomic variable and the underlying
uv_timer_t will be stopped on next uv_timer_t callback call. This
allows any thread to stop the timer.
In preparation for the on-loop timers, the isc_ratelimiter API was
converted to use the timer on main loop and start and stop the timer
asynchronously on the main loop.
As it sometimes happens that the object using isc_timer_t is destroyed
via detaching all the references with no guarantee that the last thread
will be matching thread, add a helper isc_timer_async_destroy() function
that stops the timer and runs the destroy function via isc_async_run()
on the matching thread.
- use isc_buffer functions when appropriate, rather than converting
to and from isc_region unnecessarily
- use the zlib total_out value instead of calculating it
- use c99 struct initialization
In fuzzing mode, `isc_random` uses a fixed seed for reproducibility.
The particular seed chosen happened to produce zero as its first
number, however commit bd251de0 introduced an initialization check in
`random_test` that required it to be non-zero. This change adjusts the
seed to avoid spurious test failures.
Also, remove the temporary variable that was used for initialization
because it did not match the type of the thread-local seed array.
Instead of checking if we need to re-seed for every isc_random call,
seed the random number generator in the libisc global initializer
and the per-thread initializer.
The destructor for the isc__nmsocket_t was missing call to the
isc_refcount_destroy() on the reference counter, which might lead to
spurious ThreadSanitizer data race warnings if we ever change the
acquire-release memory order in the isc_refcount_decrement().
Simplify the closing code - during the loopmgr implementation, it was
discovered that the various lists used by the uv_loop_t aren't FIFO, but
LIFO. See doc/dev/libuv.md for more details.
With this knowledge, we can close the protocol handles (uv_udp_t and
uv_tcp_t) and uv_timer_t at the same time by reordering the uv_close()
calls, and thus making sure that after calling the
isc__nm_stoplistening(), the code will not issue any additional callback
calls (accept, read) on the socket that stopped listening.
This might help with the TLS and DoH shutting down sequence as described
in the [GL #3509] as we now stop the reading, stop the timer and call
the uv_close() as earliest as possible.
The network manager UDP code was misinterpreting when the libuv called
the udp_recv_cb with nrecv == 0 and addr == NULL -> this doesn't really
mean that the "stream" has ended, but the libuv indicates that the
receive buffer can be freed. This could lead to assertion failure in
the code that calls isc_nm_read() from the network manager read callback
due to the extra spurious callbacks.
Properly handle the extra callback calls from the libuv in the client
read callback, and refactor the UDP isc_nm_read() implementation to be
synchronous, so no datagram is lost between the time that we stop the
reading from the UDP socket and we restart it again in the asychronous
udpread event.
Add a unit test that tests the isc_nm_read() call from the read
callback to receive two datagrams.
An assertion failure would be triggered when the TCP connection
is canceled during sending the data back to the client.
Don't require the state to be `RECV` on non successful read to
gracefully handle canceled TCP connection during the SEND state of the
HTTPD channel.
When converting a string to lower case, the compiler is able to
autovectorize nicely, so a nice simple implementation is also very
fast, comparable to memcpy().
Comparisons are more difficult for the compiler, so we convert eight
bytes at a time using "SIMD within a register" tricks. Experiments
indicate it's best to stick to simple loops for shorter strings and
the remainder of long strings.
There were a number of places that had copies of various ASCII
tables (case conversion, hex and decimal conversion) that are intended
to be faster than the ctype.h macros, or avoid locale pollution.
Move them into libisc, and wrap the lookup tables with macros that
avoid the ctype.h gotchas.
Commit 3608abc8fa6a33046e1d34a0789cf7c9547f09ad inadvertently carried
over a mistake in logging pthread_cond_init() errors to the
ERRNO_CHECK() preprocessor macro: instead of passing the value returned
by a given pthread_*() function to strerror_r(), ERRNO_CHECK() passes
the errno variable to strerror_r(). This causes bogus error reports
because POSIX Threads API functions do not set the errno variable.
Fix by passing the value returned by a given pthread_*() function
instead of the errno variable to strerror_r(). Since this change makes
the name of the affected macro (ERRNO_CHECK()) confusing, rename the
latter to PTHREADS_RUNTIME_CHECK(). Also log the integer error value
returned by a given pthread_*() function verbatim to rule out any
further confusion in runtime error reporting.
when the compression buffer was reused for multiple statistics
requests, responses could grow beyond the correct size. this was
because the buffer was not cleared before reuse; compressed data
was still written to the beginning of the buffer, but then the size
of used region was increased by the amount written, rather than set
to the amount written. this caused responses to grow larger and
larger, potentially reading past the end of the allocated buffer.
Commit b69e783164 inadvertently caused
builds using the --disable-doh switch to fail, by putting the
declaration of the isc__nm_async_settlsctx() function inside an #ifdef
block that is only evaluated when DNS-over-HTTPS support is enabled.
This results in the following compilation errors being triggered:
netmgr/netmgr.c:2657:1: error: no previous prototype for 'isc__nm_async_settlsctx' [-Werror=missing-prototypes]
2657 | isc__nm_async_settlsctx(isc__networker_t *worker, isc__netievent_t *ev0) {
| ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Fix by making the declaration of the isc__nm_async_settlsctx() function
in lib/isc/netmgr/netmgr-int.h visible regardless of whether
DNS-over-HTTPS support is enabled or not.
The isc_nm_listentlsdns() function erroneously calls
isc__nm_tcpdns_stoplistening() instead of isc__nm_tlsdns_stoplistening()
when something goes wrong, which can cause an assertion failure.
When we are closing the listening sockets, there's a time window in
which the TCP connection could be accepted although the respective
stoplistening function has already returned to control to the caller.
Clear the accept callback function early, so it doesn't get called when
we are not interested in the incoming connections anymore.
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.
This commit introduces new APIs for applications and signal handling,
intended to replace isc_app for applications built on top of libisc.
* isc_app will be replaced with isc_loopmgr, which handles the
starting and stopping of applications. In isc_loopmgr, the main
thread is not blocked, but is part of the working thread set.
The loop manager will start a number of threads, each with a
uv_loop event loop running. Setup and teardown functions can be
assigned which will run when the loop starts and stops, and
jobs can be scheduled to run in the meantime. When
isc_loopmgr_shutdown() is run from any the loops, all loops
will shut down and the application can terminate.
* signal handling will now be handled with a separate isc_signal unit.
isc_loopmgr only handles SIGTERM and SIGINT for application
termination, but the application may install additional signal
handlers, such as SIGHUP as a signal to reload configuration.
* new job running primitives, isc_job and isc_async, have been added.
Both units schedule callbacks (specifying a callback function and
argument) on an event loop. The difference is that isc_job unit is
unlocked and not thread-safe, so it can be used to efficiently
run jobs in the same thread, while isc_async is thread-safe and
uses locking, so it can be used to pass jobs from one thread to
another.
* isc_tid will be used to track the thread ID in isc_loop worker
threads.
* unit tests have been added for the new APIs.
When the HTTP request has a body part after the HTTP headers, it is
not getting processed and is being prepended to the next request's data,
which results in an error when trying to parse it.
Improve the httpd.c:process_request() function with the following
additions:
1. Require that HTTP POST requests must have Content-Length header.
2. When Content-Length header is set, extract its value, and make sure
that it is valid and that the whole request's body is received before
processing the request.
3. Discard the request's body by consuming Content-Length worth of data
in the buffer.
In some circumstances generic TLS code could have resumed data reading
unexpectedly on the TCP layer code. Due to this, the behaviour of
isc_nm_pauseread() and isc_nm_resumeread() might have been
unexpected. This commit fixes that.
The bug does not seems to have real consequences in the existing code
due to the way the code is used. However, the bug could have lead to
unexpected behaviour and, at any rate, makes the TLS code behave
differently from the TCP code, with which it attempts to be as
compatible as possible.
Sometimes tls_do_bio() might be called when there is no new data to
process (most notably, when resuming reads), in such a case internal
TLS session state will remain untouched and old value in 'errno' will
alter the result of SSL_get_error() call, possibly making it to return
SSL_ERROR_SYSCALL. This value will be treated as an error, and will
lead to closing the connection, which is not what expected.
The STATID_CONNECT and STATID_CONNECTFAIL statistics were used
incorrectly. The STATID_CONNECT was incremented twice (once in
the *_connect_direct() and once in the callback) and STATID_CONNECTFAIL
would not be incremented at all if the failure happened in the callback.
Closes: #3452
On FreeBSD (and perhaps other *BSD) systems, the TCP connect() call (via
uv_tcp_connect()) can fail with transient UV_EADDRINUSE error. The UDP
code already handles this by trying three times (is a charm) before
giving up. Add a code for the TCP, TCPDNS and TLSDNS layers to also try
three times before giving up by calling uv_tcp_connect() from the
callback two more time on UV_EADDRINUSE error.
Additionally, stop the timer only if we succeed or on hard error via
isc__nm_failed_connect_cb().
uv_barrier_init() errors are currently ignored. Use UV_RUNTIME_CHECK()
to catch them and to improve error reporting for any uv_barrier_init()
run-time failures (by augmenting error messages with file/line
information and the error string corresponding to the value returned).
Replace direct uses of implementation-specific rwlock functions in
lib/isc/include/isc/rwlock.h with preprocessor macros that use
ERRNO_CHECK(), in order to augment rwlock-related error messages with
file/line/caller information and the error string corresponding to
errno. Adjust the implementation-specific functions for pthreads-based
rwlocks so that they return any errors encountered to the caller instead
of aborting execution immediately using RUNTIME_CHECK().
To keep code modifications simple, make the non-pthreads-based
implementation-specific rwlock functions always return 0; these
functions continue to handle errors using less verbose run-time
assertions as they do not set errno anyway.
Replace all uses of RUNTIME_CHECK() in lib/isc/include/isc/condition.h
with ERRNO_CHECK(), in order to improve error reporting for any
condition-variable-related run-time failures (by augmenting error
messages with file/line/caller information and the error string
corresponding to errno).
Replace all uses of RUNTIME_CHECK() in lib/isc/include/isc/mutex.h with
ERRNO_CHECK(), in order to improve error reporting for any mutex-related
run-time failures (by augmenting error messages with file/line/caller
information and the error string corresponding to errno).
Some POSIX threads implementations (e.g. FreeBSD's libthr) allocate
memory on the heap when pthread_barrier_init() is called. Every call to
that function must be accompanied by a corresponding call to
pthread_barrier_destroy() or else the memory allocated for the barrier
will leak.
jemalloc can be used for detecting memory allocations which are not
released by a process when it exits. Unfortunately, since jemalloc is
also the system allocator on FreeBSD and a special (profiling-enabled)
build of jemalloc is required for memory leak detection, this method
cannot be used for detecting leaked memory allocated by libthr on a
stock FreeBSD installation.
However, libthr's behavior can be emulated on any platform by

using free(). This enables using jemalloc for detecting missing
pthread_barrier_destroy() calls on any platform on which it works

operations.

lib/isc/rwlock.c for other operations, but rename them first, so that
they contain triple underscores (to indicate that these functions are
implementation-specific, unlike their mutex and condition variable
counterparts, which always use the pthreads implementation). Define the
isc__rwlock_init() macro so that it is a logical counterpart of
isc__mutex_init() and isc__condition_init(); adjust isc___rwlock_init()
accordingly. Remove a redundant function prototype for
isc__rwlock_lock() and rename that (static) function to rwlock_lock() in
order to avoid having to use quadruple underscores.

memory on the heap when pthread_mutex_init() is called. Every call to
that function must be accompanied by a corresponding call to
pthread_mutex_destroy() or else the memory allocated for the mutex will
leak.
jemalloc can be used for detecting memory allocations which are not
released by a process when it exits. Unfortunately, since jemalloc is
also the system allocator on FreeBSD and a special (profiling-enabled)
build of jemalloc is required for memory leak detection, this method
cannot be used for detecting leaked memory allocated by libthr on a
stock FreeBSD installation.
However, libthr's behavior can be emulated on any platform by
implementing alternative versions of libisc functions for creating and
destroying mutexes that allocate memory using malloc() and release it
using free(). This enables using jemalloc for detecting missing
pthread_mutex_destroy() calls on any platform on which it works
reliably.
Introduce a new ISC_TRACK_PTHREADS_OBJECTS preprocessor macro, which
causes isc_mutex_t structures to be allocated on the heap by
isc_mutex_init() and freed by isc_mutex_destroy(). Reuse existing mutex
macros (after renaming them appropriately) for other operations.
Instead of returning error values from isc_rwlock_*(), isc_mutex_*(),
and isc_condition_*() macros/functions and subsequently carrying out
runtime assertion checks on the return values in the calling code,
trigger assertion failures directly in those macros/functions whenever
any pthread function returns an error, as there is no point in
continuing execution in such a case anyway.
Instead of using isc_once_do() on every isc_mutex_init() call, use the
global library constructor to initialize the default mutex attr
object (optionally with PTHREAD_MUTEX_ADAPTIVE_NP if supported) just
once when the library is loaded.
isc_rwlock_init() currently detects pthread_rwlock_init() failures using
a REQUIRE() assertion. Use the ERRNO_CHECK() macro for that purpose
instead, so that read-write lock initialization failures are handled
identically as condition variable (pthread_cond_init()) and mutex
(pthread_mutex_init()) initialization failures.
In a number of situations in pthreads-related code, a common sequence of
steps is taken: if the value returned by a library function is not 0,
pass errno to strerror_r(), log the string returned by the latter, and
immediately abort execution. Add an ERRNO_CHECK() preprocessor macro
which takes those exact steps and use it wherever (conveniently)
possible.
Notes:
1. The "log the return value of strerror_r() and abort" pattern is used
in a number of other places that this commit does not touch; only
"!= 0" checks followed by isc_error_fatal() calls with
non-customized error messages are replaced here.
2. This change temporarily breaks file name & line number reporting for
isc__mutex_init() errors, to prevent breaking the build. This issue
will be rectified in a subsequent change.
Before this change the TLS code would ignore the accept callback result,
and would not try to gracefully close the connection. This had not been
noticed, as it is not really required for DoH. Now the code tries to
shut down the TLS connection gracefully when accepting it is not
successful.
Otherwise the code path will lead to a call to SSL_get_error()
returning SSL_ERROR_SSL, which in turn might lead to closing
connection to early in an unexpected way, as it is clearly not what is
intended.
The issue was found when working on loppmgr branch and appears to
be timing related as well. Might be responsible for some unexpected
transmission failures e.g. on zone transfers.
In some operations - most prominently when establishing connection -
it might be beneficial to bail out earlier when the network manager
is stopping.
The issue is backported from loopmgr branch, where such a change is
not only beneficial, but required.
In some cases - in particular, in case of errors, NULL might be passed
to a connection callback instead of a handle that could have led to
an abort. This commit ensures that such a situation will not occur.
The issue was found when working on the loopmgr branch.
This commit ensures that the underlying TCP socket of a TLS connection
gets closed earlier whenever there are no pending operations on it.
In the loop-manager branch, in some circumstances the connection
could have remained opened for far too long for no reason. This
commit ensures that will not happen.
it's a style violation to have REQUIRE or INSIST contain code that
must run for the server to work. this was being done with some
atomic_compare_exchange calls. these have been cleaned up. uses
of atomic_compare_exchange in assertions have been replaced with
a new macro atomic_compare_exchange_enforced, which uses RUNTIME_CHECK
to ensure that the exchange was successful.
Before the changes from this commit were introduced, the accept
callback function will get called twice when accepting connection
during two of these stages:
* when accepting the TCP connection;
* when handshake has completed.
That is clearly an error, as it should have been called only once. As
far as I understand it the mistake is a result of TLS DNS transport
being essentially a fork of TCP transport, where calling the accept
callback immediately after accepting TCP connection makes sense.
This commit fixes this mistake. It did not have any very serious
consequences because in BIND the accept callback only checks an ACL
and updates stats.
Under specific rare timing circumstances the uv_read_start() could
fail with UV_EINVAL when the connection is reset between the connect (or
accept) and the uv_read_start() call on the nmworker loop. Handle such
situation gracefully by propagating the errors from uv_read_start() into
upper layers, so the socket can be internally closed().
The unit tests are now using a common base, which means that
lib/dns/tests/ code now has to include lib/isc/include/isc/test.h and
link with lib/isc/test.c and lib/ns/tests has to include both libisc and
libdns parts.
Instead of cross-linking code between the directories, move the
/lib/<foo>/test.c to /tests/<foo>.c and /lib/<foo>/include/<foo>test.h
to /tests/include/tests/<foo>.h and create a single libtest.la
convenience library in /tests/.
At the same time, move the /lib/<foo>/tests/ to /tests/<foo>/ (but keep
it symlinked to the old location) and adjust paths accordingly. In few
places, we are now using absolute paths instead of relative paths,
because the directory level has changed. By moving the directories
under the /tests/ directory, the test-related code is kept in a single
place and we can avoid referencing files between libns->libdns->libisc
which is unhealthy because they live in a separate Makefile-space.
In the future, the /bin/tests/ should be merged to /tests/ and symlink
kept, and the /fuzz/ directory moved to /tests/fuzz/.
The unit tests contain a lot of duplicated code and here's an attempt
to reduce code duplication.
This commit does several things:
1. Remove #ifdef HAVE_CMOCKA - we already solve this with automake
conditionals.
2. Create a set of ISC_TEST_* and ISC_*_TEST_ macros to wrap the test
implementations, test lists, and the main test routine, so we don't
have to repeat this all over again. The macros were modeled after
libuv test suite but adapted to cmocka as the test driver.
A simple example of a unit test would be:
ISC_RUN_TEST_IMPL(test1) { assert_true(true); }
ISC_TEST_LIST_START
ISC_TEST_ENTRY(test1)
ISC_TEST_LIST_END
ISC_TEST_MAIN (Discussion: Should this be ISC_TEST_RUN ?)
For more complicated examples including group setup and teardown
functions, and per-test setup and teardown functions.
3. The macros prefix the test functions and cmocka entries, so the name
of the test can now match the tested function name, and we don't have
to append `_test` because `run_test_` is automatically prepended to
the main test function, and `setup_test_` and `teardown_test_` is
prepended to setup and teardown function.
4. Update all the unit tests to use the new syntax and fix a few bits
here and there.
5. In the future, we can separate the test declarations and test
implementations which are going to greatly help with uncluttering the
bigger unit tests like doh_test and netmgr_test, because the test
implementations are not declared static (see `ISC_RUN_TEST_DECLARE`
and `ISC_RUN_TEST_IMPL` for more details.
NOTE: This heavily relies on preprocessor macros, but the result greatly
outweighs all the negatives of using the macros. There's less
duplicated code, the tests are more uniform and the implementation can
be more flexible.
Previously, tasks could be created either unbound or bound to a specific
thread (worker loop). The unbound tasks would be assigned to a random
thread every time isc_task_send() was called. Because there's no logic
that would assign the task to the least busy worker, this just creates
unpredictability. Instead of random assignment, bind all the previously
unbound tasks to worker 0, which is guaranteed to exist.
This commit separates TLS context creation code from xfrin_start() as
it has become too large and hard to follow into a new
function (similarly how it is done in dighost.c)
The dead code has been removed from the cleanup section of the TLS
creation code:
* there is no way 'tlsctx' can equal 'found';
* there is no way 'sess_cache' can be non-NULL in the cleanup section.
Also, it fixes a bug in the older version of the code, where TLS
client session context fetched from the cache would not get passed to
isc_nm_tlsdnsconnect().
Typing from libuv structure to isc_region_t is not possible, because
their sizes differ on 64 bit architectures. Little endian machines seems
to be lucky and still result in test passed. But big endian machine such
as s390x fails the test reliably.
Fix by directly creating the buffer as isc_region_t and skipping the
type conversion. More readable and still more correct.
The recently added TLS client session cache used
SSL_SESSION_is_resumable() to avoid polluting the cache with
non-resumable sessions. However, it turned out that we cannot provide
a shim for this function across the whole range of OpenSSL versions
due to the fact that OpenSSL 1.1.0 does uses opaque pointers for
SSL_SESSION objects.
The commit replaces the shim for SSL_SESSION_is_resumable() with a non
public approximation of it on systems shipped with OpenSSL 1.1.0. It
is not turned into a proper shim because it does not fully emulate the
behaviour of SSL_SESSION_is_resumable(), but in our case it is good
enough, as it still helps to protect the cache from pollution.
For systems shipped with OpenSSL 1.0.X and derivatives (e.g. older
versions of LibreSSL), the provided replacement perfectly mimics the
function it is intended to replace.
The commit fixes a corner case in client-side DoH code, when a write
attempt is done on a closing socket (session).
The change ensures that the write call-back will be called with a
proper error code (see failed_send_cb() call in client_httpsend()).
This commit extends TLS context cache with TLS client session cache so
that an associated session cache can be stored alongside the TLS
context within the context cache.
This commit adds an implementation of a client TLS session cache. TLS
client session cache is an object which allows efficient storing and
retrieval of previously saved TLS sessions so that they can be
resumed. This object is supposed to be a foundation for implementing
TLS session resumption - a standard technique to reduce the cost of
re-establishing a connection to the remote server endpoint.
OpenSSL does server-side TLS session caching transparently by
default. However, on the client-side, a TLS session to resume must be
manually specified when establishing the TLS connection. The TLS
client session cache is precisely the foundation for that.
Setting the sock->write_timeout from the TCP, TCPDNS, and TLSDNS send
functions could lead to (harmless) data race when setting the value for
the first time when the isc_nm_send() function would be called from
thread not-matching the socket we are sending to. Move the setting the
sock->write_timeout to the matching async function which is always
called from the matching thread.
Clang added support for the gcc-style fallthrough
attribute (i.e. __attribute__((fallthrough))) in version 10. However,
__has_attribute(fallthrough) will return 1 in C mode in older versions,
even though they only support the C++11 fallthrough attribute. At best,
the unsupported attribute is simply ignored; at worst, it causes errors.
The C2x fallthrough attribute has the advantages of being supported in
the broadest range of clang versions (added in version 9) and being easy
to check for support. Use C2x [[fallthrough]] attribute if possible, and
fall back to not using an attribute for clang versions that don't have
it.

Since the fctx hash table is now self-resizing, and resolver tasks are
selected to match the thread that created the fetch context, there
shouldn't be any significant advantage to having multiple tasks per CPU;
a single task per thread should be sufficient.
Additionally, the fetch context is always pinned to the calling netmgr
thread to minimize the contention just to coalesced fetches - if two
threads starts the same fetch, it will be pinned to the first one to get
the bucket.
When attaching to the trampoline, the isc__trampoline_max was access
unlocked. This would not manifest under normal circumstances because we
initialize 65 trampolines by default and that's enough for most
commodity hardware, but there are ARM machines with 128+ cores where
this would be reported by ThreadSanitizer.
Add locking around the code in isc__trampoline_attach(). This also
requires the lock to leak on exit (along with memory that we already)
because a new thread might be attaching to the trampoline while we are
running the library destructor at the same time.
After removing the isc_task_onshutdown(), the isc_task_shutdown() and
isc_task_destroy() became obsolete.
Remove calls to isc_task_shutdown() and replace the calls to
isc_task_destroy() with isc_task_detach().
Simplify the internal logic to destroy the task when the last reference
is removed.
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.
This commit fixes a crash in generic TLS stream code, which could be
reproduced during some runs of the 'sslyze' tool.
The intention of this commit is twofold.
Firstly, it ensures that the TLS socket object cannot be destroyed too
early. Now it is being deleted alongside the underlying TCP socket
object.
Secondly, it ensures that the TLS socket object cannot be destroyed as
a result of calling 'tls_do_bio()' (the primary function which
performs encryption/decryption during the IO) as the code did not
expect that. This code path is fixed now.
Somewhere in the move from netmgr/uv-compat.h to uv.c, the
uv_os_getenv() implementation was lost in the process. Restore the
implementation, so we can support Debian stretch for couple more months.
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().
Move the netmgr socket related functions from netmgr/netmgr.c and
netmgr/uv-compat.c to netmgr/socket.c, so they are all present all in
the same place. Adjust the names of couple interal functions
accordingly.
This commit ensures that write callbacks are getting called only after
the data has been sent via the network.
Without this fix, a situation could appear when a write callback could
get called before the actual encrypted data would have been sent to
the network. Instead, it would get called right after it would have
been passed to the OpenSSL (i.e. encrypted).
Most likely, the issue does not reveal itself often because the
callback call was asynchronous, so in most cases it should have been
called after the data has been sent, but that was not guaranteed by
the code logic.
Also, this commit removes one memory allocation (netievent) from a hot
path, as there is no need to call this callback asynchronously
anymore.
The connect()ed UDP socket provides feedback on a variety of ICMP
errors (eg port unreachable) which bind can then use to decide what to
do with errors (report them to the client, try again with a different
nameserver etc). However, Linux's implementation does not report what
it considers "transient" conditions, which is defined as Destination
host Unreachable, Destination network unreachable, Source Route Failed
and Message Too Big.
Explicitly enable IP_RECVERR / IPV6_RECVERR (via libuv uv_udp_bind()
flag) to learn about ICMP destination network/host unreachable.
When we compile with libuv that has some capabilities via flags passed
to f.e. uv_udp_listen() or uv_udp_bind(), the call with such flags would
fail with invalid arguments when older libuv version is linked at the
runtime that doesn't understand the flag that was available at the
compile time.
Enforce minimal libuv version when flags have been available at the
compile time, but are not available at the runtime. This check is less
strict than enforcing the runtime libuv version to be same or higher
than compile time libuv version.
Instead of checking if we need to re-seed for every isc_random call,
seed the random number generator in the libisc global initializer
and the per-thread initializer.
It used to require two 32-bit integer divisions to get a random number
less than some limit. Now we use Daniel Lemire's "nearly-divisionless"
algorithm for unbiased bounded random numbers, which requires one
64-bit integer multiply in the usual case, and one 32-bit integer
division in rare slow cases. Even the slow cases are faster than
before; there are also fewer branches.
I think this algorithm is exceptionally beautiful. It also has more
clever tricks than lines of code, so I have done my best to explain
how it works.
Since version 5.0.0, decay-based purging is the only available dirty
page cleanup mechanism in jemalloc. It relies on so-called tickers,
which are simple data structures used for ensuring that certain actions
are taken "once every N times". Ticker data (state) is stored in a
thread-specific data structure called tsd in jemalloc parlance. Ticks
are triggered when extents are allocated and deallocated. Once every
1000 ticks, jemalloc attempts to release some of the dirty pages hanging
around (if any). This allows memory use to be kept in check over time.
This dirty page cleanup mechanism has a quirk. If the first
allocator-related action for a given thread is a free(), a
minimally-initialized tsd is set up which does not include ticker data.
When that thread subsequently calls *alloc(), the tsd transitions to its
nominal state, but due to a certain flag being set during minimal tsd
initialization, ticker data remains unallocated. This prevents
decay-based dirty page purging from working, effectively enabling memory
exhaustion over time. [1]
The quirk described above has been addressed (by moving ticker state to
a different structure) in jemalloc's development branch [2], but not in
any numbered jemalloc version released to date (the latest one being
5.2.1 as of this writing).
Work around the problem by ensuring that every thread spawned by
isc_thread_create() starts with a malloc() call. Avoid immediately
calling free() for the dummy allocation to prevent an optimizing
compiler from stripping away the malloc() + free() pair altogether.
An alternative implementation of this workaround was considered that
used a pair of isc_mem_create() + isc_mem_destroy() calls instead of
malloc() + free(), enabling the change to be fully contained within
isc__trampoline_run() (i.e. to not touch struct isc__trampoline), as the
compiler is not allowed to strip away arbitrary function calls.
However, that solution was eventually dismissed as it triggered
ThreadSanitizer reports when tools like dig, nsupdate, or rndc exited
abruptly without waiting for all worker threads to finish their work.

When TASKMGR_TRACE=1 is defined, the task and event objects have
detailed tracing information about function, file, line, and
backtrace (to the extent tracked by gcc) where it was created.
At exit, when there are unfinished tasks, they will be printed along
with the detailed information.
The only place where isc_task_sendto() was used was in dns_resolver
unit, where the "sendto" part was actually no-op, because dns_resolver
uses bound tasks. Remove the isc_task_sendto() and
isc_task_sendtoanddetach() functions in favor of using bound tasks
create with isc_task_create_bound().
Additionally, cache the number of running netmgr threads (nworkers)
locally to reduce the number of function calls.
For some applications, it's useful to not listen on full battery of
threads. Add workers argument to all isc_nm_listen*() functions and
convenience ISC_NM_LISTEN_ONE and ISC_NM_LISTEN_ALL macros.
This commit adds isc_nmsocket_set_tlsctx() - an asynchronous function
that replaces the TLS context within a given TLS-enabled listener
socket object. It is based on the newly added reference counting
functionality.
The intention of adding this function is to add functionality to
replace a TLS context without recreating the whole socket object,
including the underlying TCP listener socket, as a BIND process might
not have enough permissions to re-create it fully on reconfiguration.
The implementation is done on top of the reference counting
functionality found in OpenSSL/LibreSSL, which allows for avoiding
wrapping the object.
Adding this function allows using reference counting for TLS contexts
in BIND 9's codebase.
as far as I can determine the order of operations is not important.

Previously, HAVE_SO_REUSEPORT_LB has been defined only in the private
netmgr-int.h header file, making the configuration of load balanced
sockets inoperable.
Move the missing HAVE_SO_REUSEPORT_LB define the isc/netmgr.h and add
missing isc_nm_getloadbalancesockets() implementation.
Previously, the option to enable kernel load balancing of the sockets
was always enabled when supported by the operating system (SO_REUSEPORT
on Linux and SO_REUSEPORT_LB on FreeBSD).
It was reported that in scenarios where the networking threads are also
responsible for processing long-running tasks (like RPZ processing, CATZ
processing or large zone transfers), this could lead to intermitten
brownouts for some clients, because the thread assigned by the operating
system might be busy. In such scenarious, the overall performance would
be better served by threads competing over the sockets because the idle
threads can pick up the incoming traffic.
Add new configuration option (`load-balance-sockets`) to allow enabling
or disabling the load balancing of the sockets.
Previously, the RPZ updates ran quantized on the main nm_worker loops.
As the quantum was set to 1024, this might lead to service
interruptions when large RPZ update was processed.
Change the RPZ update process to run as the offloaded work. The update
and cleanup loops were refactored to do as little locking of the
maintenance lock as possible for the shortest periods of time and the db
iterator is being paused for every iteration, so we don't hold the rbtdb
tree lock for prolonged periods of time.
The reference counting and isc_timer_attach()/isc_timer_detach()
semantic are actually misleading because it cannot be used under normal
conditions. The usual conditions under which is timer used uses the
object where timer is used as argument to the "timer" itself. This
means that when the caller is using `isc_timer_detach()` it needs the
timer to stop and the isc_timer_detach() does that only if this would be
the last reference. Unfortunately, this also means that if the timer is
attached elsewhere and the timer is fired it will most likely be
use-after-free, because the object used in the timer no longer exists.
Remove the reference counting from the isc_timer unit, remove
isc_timer_attach() function and rename isc_timer_detach() to
isc_timer_destroy() to better reflect how the API needs to be used.
The only caveat is that the already executed event must be destroyed
before the isc_timer_destroy() is called because the timer is no longet
attached to .ev_destroy_arg.
Previously, the task privileged mode has been used only when the named
was starting up and loading the zones from the disk as the "first" thing
to do. The privileged task was setup with quantum == 2, which made the
taskmgr/netmgr spin around the privileged queue processing two events at
the time.
The same effect can be achieved by setting the quantum to UINT_MAX (e.g.
practically unlimited) for the loadzone task, hence the privileged task
mode was removed in favor of just processing all the events on the
loadzone task in a single task_run().
Instead of passing the number of worker to the dns_zonemgr manually,
get the number of nm threads using the new isc_nm_getnworkers() call.
Additionally, remove the isc_pool API and manage the array of memory
context, zonetasks and loadtasks directly in the zonemgr.
After switching to per-thread resources in the zonemgr, the performance
was decreased because the memory context, zonetask and loadtask was
picked from the pool at random.
Pin the zone to single threadid (.tid) and align the memory context,
zonetask and loadtask to be the same, this sets the hard affinity of the
zone to the netmgr thread.
Previously, the zonemgr created 1 task per 100 zones and 1 memory
context per 1000 zones (with minimum 10 tasks and 2 memory contexts) to
reduce the contention between threads.
Instead of reducing the contention by having many resources, create a
per-nm_thread memory context, loadtask and zonetask and spread the zones
between just per-thread resources.
Note: this commit alone does decrease performance when loading the zone
by couple seconds (in case of 1M zone) and thus there's more work in
this whole MR fixing the performance.
Add isc_task_setquantum() function that modifies quantum for the future
isc_task_run() invocations.
NOTE: The current isc_task_run() caches the task->quantum into a local
variable and therefore the current event loop is not affected by any
quantum change.
The isc_task_purge() and isc_task_purgerange() were now unused, so sweep
the task.c file. Additionally remove unused ISC_EVENTATTR_NOPURGE event
attribute.
The isc_task_purgerange() was walking through all events on the task to
find a matching task. Instead use the ISC_LINK_LINKED to find whether
the event is active.
Cleanup the related isc_task_unsend() and isc_task_unsendrange()
functions that were not used anywhere.
Adding extra val & 0xffff in the isc_hash_bits32() macros in the hotpath
has significantly reduced the performance. Turn the macro into static
inline function matching the previous hash_32() function used to compute
hashval matching the hashtable->bits.
Previously, the isc_ht API would always take the key as a literal input
to the hashing function. Change the isc_ht_init() function to take an
'options' argument, in which ISC_HT_CASE_SENSITIVE or _INSENSITIVE can
be specified, to determine whether to use case-sensitive hashing in
isc_hash32() when hashing the key.
Fibonacci hashing was implemented in four separate places (rbt.c,
rbtdb.c, resolver.c, zone.c). This commit combines them into a single
implementation. The hash_32() function is now replaced with
isc_hash_bits32().
In couple places, we have missed INSIST(0) or ISC_UNREACHABLE()
replacement on some branches with UNREACHABLE(). Replace all
ISC_UNREACHABLE() or INSIST(0) calls with UNREACHABLE().
This commit adds support for ISC_R_TLSBADPEERCERT error code, which is
supposed to be used to signal for TLS peer certificates verification
in dig and other code.
The support for this error code is added to our TLS and TLS DNS
implementations.
This commit also adds isc_nm_verify_tls_peer_result_string() function
which is supposed to be used to get a textual description of the
reason for getting a ISC_R_TLSBADPEERCERT error.
This commit adds support for keeping CA certificates stores associated
with TLS contexts. The intention is to keep one reusable store per a
set of related TLS contexts.
This commit adds a set of functions that can be used to implement
Strict and Mutual TLS:
* isc_tlsctx_load_client_ca_names();
* isc_tlsctx_load_certificate();
* isc_tls_verify_peer_result_string();
* isc_tlsctx_enable_peer_verification().
This commit adds a set of high-level utility functions to manipulate
the certificate stores. The stores are needed to implement TLS
certificates verification efficiently.
Previously, it was possible to assign a bit of memory space in the
nmhandle to store the client data. This was complicated and prevents
further refactoring of isc_nmhandle_t caching (future work).
Instead of caching the data in the nmhandle, allocate the hot-path
ns_client_t objects from per-thread clientmgr memory context and just
assign it to the isc_nmhandle_t via isc_nmhandle_set().
Historically, the inline keyword was a strong suggestion to the compiler
that it should inline the function marked inline. As compilers became
better at optimising, this functionality has receded, and using inline
as a suggestion to inline a function is obsolete. The compiler will
happily ignore it and inline something else entirely if it finds that's
a better optimisation.
Therefore, remove all the occurences of the inline keyword with static
functions inside single compilation unit and leave the decision whether
to inline a function or not entirely on the compiler
NOTE: We keep the usage the inline keyword when the purpose is to change
the linkage behaviour.
C11 has builtin support for _Noreturn function specifier with
convenience noreturn macro defined in <stdnoreturn.h> header.
Replace ISC_NORETURN macro by C11 noreturn with fallback to
__attribute__((noreturn)) if the C11 support is not complete.
Previously, the unreachable code paths would have to be tagged with:
INSIST(0);
ISC_UNREACHABLE();
There was also older parts of the code that used comment annotation:

Unify the handling of unreachable code paths to just use:
UNREACHABLE();
The UNREACHABLE() macro now asserts when reached and also uses
__builtin_unreachable(); when such builtin is available in the compiler.
Gcc 7+ and Clang 10+ have implemented __attribute__((fallthrough)) which
is explicit version of the /* FALLTHROUGH */ comment we are currently
using.
Add and apply FALLTHROUGH macro that uses the attribute if available,
but does nothing on older compilers.
In one case (lib/dns/zone.c), using the macro revealed that we were
using the /* FALLTHROUGH */ comment in wrong place, remove that comment.
Instead of passing the "workers" variable back and forth along with
passing the single isc_nm_t instance, add isc_nm_getnworkers() function
that returns the number of netmgr threads are running.
Change the ns_interfacemgr and ns_taskmgr to utilize the newly acquired
knowledge.
The clang-format-15 has new option InsertBraces that could add missing
branches around single line statements. Use that to our advantage
without switching to not-yet-released LLVM version to add missing braces
in couple of places.
As incremental rehashing has been added to isc_ht implementation, we
need to test whether the rehashing works.
Update the isc_ht unit test to test:
* preinitialized hash table large enough to hold all the elements
* smallest hash table that fully grows to hold all the elements
* partially preinitialized hash table that grows
* iterating while rehashing is in progress
Previously, an incremental hash table resizing was implemented for the
dns_rbt_t hash table implementation. Using that as a base, also
implement the incremental hash table resizing also for isc_ht API
hashtables:
1. During the resize, allocate the new hash table, but keep the old
table unchanged.
2. In each lookup, delete, or iterator operation, check both tables.
3. Perform insertion operations only in the new table.
4. At each insertion also move <r> elements from the old table to
the new table.
5. When all elements are removed from the old table, deallocate it.
To ensure that the old table is completely copied over before the new
table itself needs to be enlarged, it is necessary to increase the
size of the table by a factor of at least (<r> + 1)/<r> during resizing.
In our implementation <r> is equal to 1.
The downside of this approach is that the old table and the new table
could stay in memory for longer when there are no new insertions into
the hash table for prolonged periods of time as the incremental
rehashing happens only during the insertions.
When sock->closehandle_cb is set, we need to run nmhandle_detach_cb()
asynchronously to ensure correct order of multiple packets processing in
the isc__nm_process_sock_buffer(). When not run asynchronously, it
would cause:
a) out-of-order processing of the return codes from processbuffer();
b) stack growth because the next TCP DNS message read callback will
be called from within the current TCP DNS message read callback.
The sock->closehandle_cb is set to isc__nm_resume_processing() for TCP
sockets which calls isc__nm_process_sock_buffer(). If the read callback
(called from isc__nm_process_sock_buffer()->processbuffer()) doesn't
attach to the nmhandle (f.e. because it wants to drop the processing or
we send the response directly via uv_try_write()), the
isc__nm_resume_processing() (via .closehandle_cb) would call
isc__nm_process_sock_buffer() recursively.
The below shortened code path shows how the stack can grow:
1: ns__client_request(handle, ...);
2: isc_nm_tcpdns_sequential(handle);
3: ns_query_start(client, handle);
4: query_lookup(qctx);
5: query_send(qctcx->client);
6: isc__nmhandle_detach(&client->reqhandle);
7: nmhandle_detach_cb(&handle);
8: sock->closehandle_cb(sock); // isc__nm_resume_processing
9: isc__nm_process_sock_buffer(sock);
10: processbuffer(sock); // isc__nm_tcpdns_processbuffer
11: isc_nmhandle_attach(req->handle, &handle);
12: isc__nm_readcb(sock, req, ISC_R_SUCCESS);
13: isc__nm_async_readcb(NULL, ...);
14: uvreq->cb.recv(...); // ns__client_request
Instead, if 'sock->closehandle_cb' is set, we need to run detach the
handle asynchroniously in 'isc__nmhandle_detach', so that on line 8 in
the code flow above does not start this recursion. This ensures the
correct order when processing multiple packets in the function
'isc__nm_process_sock_buffer()' and prevents the stack growth.
When not run asynchronously, the out-of-order processing leaves the
first TCP socket open until all requests on the stream have been
processed.
If the pipelining is disabled on the TCP via `keep-response-order`
configuration option, named would keep the first socket in lingering
CLOSE_WAIT state when the client sends an incomplete packet and then
closes the connection from the client side.
Change the isc_interval_t implementation from separate data type and
separate implementation to be shim implementation on top of isc_time_t.
The distinction between isc_interval_t and isc_time_t has been kept
because they are semantically different - isc_interval_t is relative and
isc_time_t is absolute, but this allows isc_time_t and isc_interval_t to
be freely interchangeable, f.e. this:
isc_time_t *t1;
isc_interval_t *interval;
isc_time_t *t2;
isc_interval_set(interval, isc_time_seconds(t2), isc_time_nanoseconds(t2);;
isc_time_subtract(t1, interval, t2);
isc_interval_set(interval, isc_time_seconds(t2), isc_time_nanoseconds(t2));
to just:
isc_time_t *t1;
isc_interval_t *interval;
isc_time_t *t2;
isc_time_subtract(t1, t2, interval);
without introducing a whole set of new functions.
The isc_timer_reset() now works only with intervals for once timers.
This makes the API almost 1:1 compatible with the libuv timers making
the further refactoring possible.
There were two places where expires argument (absolute isc_time_t value)
was being used. Both places has been converted to use relative interval
argument in preparation of simplification and refactoring of isc_timer
API.
The isc_timer_create() function was a bit conflated. It could have been
used to create a timer and start it at the same time. As there was a
single place where this was done before (see the previous commit for
nta.c), this was cleaned up and the isc_timer_create() function was
changed to only create new timer.
In httpd.c, the send callback can directly call read callback without
calling isc_nm_resumeread(). When per-send timeout was added, this
could lead to use-after-free when shutting down the named.
Cleanup the way how we attach to .readhandle and .sendhandle, so there's
assurance that .readhandle will be always non-NULL when reading and
.sendhandle will be always non-NULL when sending.
Additionally, it was found that the implementation ignored the
"Connection: close" header and it worked only accidentally by closing
the connection after the first read from the TCP socket. This has been
also fixed.
Previously, the established TCP connections (both client and server)
would be gracefully closed waiting for the write timeout.
Don't wait for TCP connections to gracefully shutdown, but directly
reset them for faster shutdown.
Previously, there was a single per-socket write timer that would get
restarted for every new write. This turned out to be insufficient
because the other side could keep reseting the timer, and never reading
back the responses.
Change the single write timer to per-send timer which would in turn
reset the TCP connection on the first send timeout.
The C17 standard deprecated ATOMIC_VAR_INIT() macro (see [1]). Follow
the suite and remove the ATOMIC_VAR_INIT() usage in favor of simple
assignment of the value as this is what all supported stdatomic.h
implementations do anyway:
* MacOSX.plaform: #define ATOMIC_VAR_INIT(__v) {__v}
* Gcc stdatomic.h: #define ATOMIC_VAR_INIT(VALUE) (VALUE)

Previously, the function(s) in the commit subject could fail for various
reasons - mostly allocation failures, or other functions returning
different return code than ISC_R_SUCCESS. Now, the aforementioned
function(s) cannot ever fail and they would always return ISC_R_SUCCESS.
Change the function(s) to return void and remove the extra checks in
the code that uses them.

Previously the socket code would set the TCPv6 maximum segment size to
minimum value to prevent IP fragmentation for TCP. This was not yet
implemented for the network manager.
Implement network manager functions to set and use minimum MTU socket
option and set the TCP_MAXSEG socket option for both IPv4 and IPv6 and
use those to clamp the TCP maximum segment size for TCP, TCPDNS and
TLSDNS layers in the network manager to 1220 bytes, that is 1280 (IPv6
minimum link MTU) minus 40 (IPv6 fixed header) minus 20 (TCP fixed
header)
We already rely on a similar value for UDP to prevent IP fragmentation
and it make sense to use the same value for IPv4 and IPv6 because the
modern networks are required to support IPv6 packet sizes. If there's
need for small TCP segment values, the MTU on the interfaces needs to be
properly configured.
The IPV6_USE_MIN_MTU socket option directs the IP layer to limit the
IPv6 packet size to the minimum required supported MTU from the base
IPv6 specification, i.e. 1280 bytes. Many implementations of TCP
running over IPv6 neglect to check the IPV6_USE_MIN_MTU value when
performing MSS negotiation and when constructing a TCP segment despite
MSS being defined to be the MTU less the IP and TCP header sizes (60
bytes for IPv6). This leads to oversized IPv6 packets being sent
resulting in unintended Path Maximum Transport Unit Discovery (PMTUD)
being performed and to fragmented IPv6 packets being sent.
Add and use a function to set socket option to limit the MTU on IPv6
sockets to the minimum MTU (1280) both for UDP and TCP.
The current implementation of isc_queue uses Michael-Scott lock-free
queue that in turn uses hazard pointers. It was discovered that the way
we use the isc_queue, such complicated mechanism isn't really needed,
because most of the time, we either execute the work directly when on
nmthread (in case of UDP) or schedule the work from the matching
nmthreads.
Replace the current implementation of the isc_queue with a simple locked
ISC_LIST. There's a slight improvement - since copying the whole list
is very lightweight - we move the queue into a new list before we start
the processing and locking just for moving the queue and not for every
single item on the list.
NOTE: There's a room for future improvements - since we don't guarantee
the order in which the netievents are processed, we could have two lists
- one unlocked that would be used when scheduling the work from the
matching thread and one locked that would be used from non-matching
thread.
LibreSSL 3.5.0 fails to compile with these shims. We could have just
removed the LibreSSL check from the pre-processor condition, but it
seems that these shims are no longer needed because all the supported
versions of OpenSSL and LibreSSL have those functions.
According to EVP_ENCRYPTINIT(3) manual page in LibreSSL,
EVP_CIPHER_CTX_new() and EVP_CIPHER_CTX_free() first appeared in
OpenSSL 0.9.8b, and have been available since OpenBSD 4.5.
when parsing key pairs, if the '=' character fell at max_token
a protective INSIST preventing buffer overrun could be triggered.
Attempt to grow the buffer immediately before the INSIST.
Also removed an unnecessary INSIST on the opening double quote
of key buffer pair.
The isc__nmsocket_reset() was missing a case for raw TCP sockets (used
by RNDC and DoH) which would case a assertion failure when write timeout
would be triggered.
TCP sockets are now also properly handled in isc__nmsocket_reset().
When isc__nm_uvreq_t gets deactivated, it could be just put onto array
stack to be reused later to save some initialization time.
Unfortunately, this might hide some use-after-free errors.
Disable the inactive uvreqs caching when compiled with Address or
Thread Sanitizer.
When isc_nmhandle_t gets deactivated, it could be just put onto array
stack to be reused later to safe some initialization time.
Unfortunately, this might hide some use-after-free errors.
Disable the inactive handles caching when compiled with Address or
Thread Sanitizer.
The isc__nmsocket_t has locked array of isc_nmhandle_t that's not used
for anything. The isc__nmhandle_get() adds the isc_nmhandle_t to the
locked array (and resized if necessary) and removed when
isc_nmhandle_put() finally destroys the handle. That's all it does, so
it serves no useful purpose.
Remove the .ah_handles, .ah_size, and .ah_frees members of the
isc__nmsocket_t and .ah_pos member of the isc_nmhandle_t struct.
When the TCP, TCPDNS or TLSDNS connection times out, the isc__nm_uvreq_t
would be pushed into sock->inactivereqs before the uv_tcp_connect()
callback finishes. Because the isc__nmsocket_t keeps the list of
inactive isc__nm_uvreq_t, this would cause use-after-free only when the
sock->inactivereqs is full (which could never happen because the failure
happens in connection timeout callback) or when the sock->inactivereqs
mechanism is completely removed (f.e. when running under Address or
Thread Sanitizer).
Delay isc__nm_uvreq_t deallocation to the connection callback and only
signal the connection callback should be called by shutting down the
libuv socket from the connection timeout callback.
The keep-response-order option has been obsoleted, and in this commit,
remove the keep-response-order ACL map rendering the option no-op, the
call the isc_nm_sequential() and the now unused isc_nm_sequential()
function itself.
There was an artificial limit of 23 on the number of simultaneous
pipelined queries in the single TCP connection. The new network
managers is capable of handling "unlimited" (limited only by the TCP
read buffer size ) queries similar to "unlimited" handling of the DNS
queries receive over UDP.
Don't limit the number of TCP queries that we can process within a
single TCP read callback.
When invalid DNS message is received, there was a handling mechanism for
DoH that would be called to return proper HTTP response.
Reuse this mechanism and reset the TCP connection when the client is
blackholed, DNS message is completely bogus or the ns_client receives
response instead of query.
Use the isc_nmhandle_setwritetimeout() function in the netmgr unit test
to allow more time for writing and reading the responses because some of
the intervals that are used in the unit tests are really small leaving a
little room for any delays.
In some situations (unit test and forthcoming XFR timeouts MR), we need
to modify the write timeout independently of the read timeout. Add a
isc_nmhandle_setwritetimeout() function that could be called before
isc_nm_send() to specify a custom write timeout interval.
When the outgoing TCP write buffers are full because the other party is
not reading the data, the uv_write() could wait indefinitely on the
uv_loop and never calling the callback. Add a new write timer that uses
the `tcp-idle-timeout` value to interrupt the TCP connection when we are
not able to send data for defined period of time.
The uv_tcp_close_reset() function was added in libuv 1.32.0 and since we
support older libuv releases, we have to add a shim uv_tcp_close_reset()
implementation loosely based on libuv.
Before adding the write timer, we have to remove the generic sock->timer
to sock->read_timer. We don't touch the function names to limit the
impact of the refactoring.
When libuv functions fail, they return correct return value that could
be useful for more detailed debugging. Currently, we usually just check
whether the return value is 0 and invoke assertion error if it doesn't
throwing away the details why the call has failed. Unfortunately, this
often happen on more exotic platforms.
Add a UV_RUNTIME_CHECK() macro that can be used to print more detailed
error message (via uv_strerror() before ending the execution of the
program abruptly with the assertion.
The task exclusive mode stops all processing (tasks and networking IO)
except the designated exclusive task events. This has impact on the
operation of the server. Add log messages indicating when we start the
exclusive mode, and when we end exclusive task mode.
There are reported occurences where the statitic counters underflows and
starts reporting non-sense.
Add a check for the underflow, when ``named`` is compiled in the
developer mode.
The isc_thread_setaffinity call was removed in !5265 and we are not
going to restore it because it was proven that the performance is better
without it. Additionally, remove the already disabled cpu system test.
The isc_thread_setconcurrency function is unused and also calling
pthread_setconcurrency() on Linux has no meaning, formerly it was
added because of Solaris in 2001 and it was removed when taskmgr was
refactored to run on top of netmgr in !4918.
When isc_quota_attach_cb() API returns ISC_R_QUOTA (meaning hard quota
was reached) the accept_connection() would return without logging a
message about quota reached.
Change the connection callback to log the quota reached message.
IBM power architecture has L1 cache line size equal to 128. Take
advantage of that on that architecture, do not force more common value
of 64. When it is possible to detect higher value, use that value
instead. Keep the default to be 64.
TLS clients can have their clock a short time in the past which will
result in not being able to validate the certificate.
Setting the "not before" property 5 minutes in the past will
accommodate with some possible clock skew across systems.
On some systems, the glibc can return 0 instead of cache-line size to
indicate the cache line sizes cannot be determined. This is comment
from glibc source code:
/* In general we cannot determine these values. Therefore we
return zero which indicates that no information is
available. */
As the goal of the check is to determine whether the L1 cache line size
is still 64 and we would use this value in case the sysconf() call is
not available, we can also ignore the invalid values returned by the
sysconf() call.
Some operating systems (OpenBSD and DragonFly BSD) don't restrict the
IPv6 sockets to sending and receiving IPv6 packets only. Explicitly
enable the IPV6_V6ONLY socket option on the IPv6 sockets to prevent
failures from using the IPv4-mapped IPv6 address.
The server_send_error_response() function is supposed to be used only
in case of failures and never in case of legitimate requests. Ensure
that ISC_HTTP_ERROR_SUCCESS is never passed there by mistake.
Previously, the netmgr/udp.c tried to detect the recvmmsg detection in
libuv with #ifdef UV_UDP_<foo> preprocessor macros. However, because
the UV_UDP_<foo> are not preprocessor macros, but enum members, the
detection didn't work. Because the detection didn't work, the code
didn't have access to the information when we received the final chunk
of the recvmmsg and tried to free the uvbuf every time. Fortunately,
the isc__nm_free_uvbuf() had a kludge that detected attempt to free in
the middle of the receive buffer, so the code worked.
However, libuv 1.37.0 changed the way the recvmmsg was enabled from
implicit to explicit, and we checked for yet another enum member
presence with preprocessor macro, so in fact libuv recvmmsg support was
never enabled with libuv >= 1.37.0.
This commit changes to the preprocessor macros to autoconf checks for
declaration, so the detection now works again. On top of that, it's now
possible to cleanup the alloc_cb and free_uvbuf functions because now,
the information whether we can or cannot free the buffer is available to
us.
Clients can cache the TLS certificates and refuse to accept
another one with the same serial number from the same issuer.
Generate a random serial number for the self-signed certificates
instead of using a fixed value.
GnuTLS, NSS, and possibly other TLS libraries currently fail to work
with compressed point conversion form supported by OpenSSL.
Use uncompressed point conversion form for better compatibility.
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.
The isc__nm_tcp_resumeread() was using maybe_enqueue function to enqueue
netmgr event which could case the read callback to be executed
immediately if there was enough data waiting in the TCP queue.
If such thing would happen, the read callback would be called before the
previous read callback was finished and the worker receive buffer would
be still marked "in use" causing a assertion failure.
This would affect only raw TCP channels, e.g. rndc and http statistics.
The isc_queue_new() was using dirty tricks to allocate the head and tail
members of the struct aligned to the cacheline. We can now use
isc_mem_get_aligned() to allocate the structure to the cacheline
directly.
Use ISC_OS_CACHELINE_SIZE (64) instead of arbitrary ALIGNMENT (128), one
cacheline size is enough to prevent false sharing.
Cleanup the unused max_threads variable - there was actually no limit on
the maximum number of threads. This was changed a while ago.
The hazard pointers implementation was bit of frivolous with memory
usage allocating memory based on maximum constants rather than on the
usage.
Make the retired list bit use exactly the memory needed for specified
number of hazard pointers. This reduced the memory used by hazard
pointers to one quarter in our specific case because we only use single
HP in the queue implementation (as opposed to allocating memory for
HP_MAX_HPS = 4).
Previously, the alignment to prevent false sharing was double the
cacheline size. This was copied from the ConcurrencyFreaks
implementation, but one cacheline size is enough to prevent false
sharing, so we are using this now to save few bits of memory.
The top level hazard pointers and retired list arrays are now not
aligned to the cacheline size - they are read-only for the whole
life-time of the isc_hp object. Only hp (hazard pointer) and
rl (retired list) array members are allocated aligned to the cacheline
size to avoid false sharing between threads.
Cleanup HP_MAX_HPS and HP_THRESHOLD_R constants from the paper, because
we don't use them in the code. HP_THRESHOLD_R was 0, so the check
whether the retired list size was smaller than the value was basically a
dead code.
There are some situations where having aligned allocations would be
useful, so we don't have to play tricks with padding the data to the
cacheline sizes.
Add isc_mem_{get,put,reget,putanddetach}_aligned() functions that has
alignment and size as last argument mimicking the POSIX posix_memalign()
functions on systems with jemalloc (see the documentation on
MALLOX_ALIGN() for more details). On systems without jemalloc, those
functions are same as non-aligned variants.
Add library ctor and dtor for isc_os compilation unit which initializes
the numbers of the CPUs and also checks whether L1 cacheline size is
really 64 if the sysconf() call is available.
While doing code review, it was found that the taskmgr->exiting is set
under taskmgr->lock, but accessed under taskmgr->excl_lock in the
isc_task_beginexclusive().
Additionally, before the change that moved running the tasks to the
netmgr, the task_ready() subrouting of isc_task_detach() would lock
mgr->lock, requiring the mgr->excl to be protected mgr->excl_lock
to prevent deadlock in the code. After !4918 has been merged, this is
no longer true, and we can remove taskmgr->excl_lock and use
taskmgr->lock in its stead.
Solve both issues by removing the taskmgr->excl_lock and exclusively use
taskmgr->lock to protect both taskmgr->excl and taskmgr->exiting which
now doesn't need to be atomic_bool, because it's always accessed from
within the locked section.
The isc_taskmgr_excltask() would return ISC_R_NOTFOUND either when the
exclusive task was not set (yet) or when the taskmgr is shutting down
and the exclusive task has been already cleared.
Distinguish between the two states and return ISC_R_SHUTTINGDOWN when
the taskmgr is being shut down instead of ISC_R_NOTFOUND.
For consistency with similar functions, rename `pcache` to `cachep`,
call a separate destroy function when references reach 0, and add
a missing call to isc_refcount_destroy().
Using the TLS context cache for server-side contexts could reduce the
number of contexts to initialise in the configurations when e.g. the
same 'tls' entry is used in multiple 'listen-on' statements for the
same DNS transport, binding to multiple IP addresses.
In such a case, only one TLS context will be created, instead of a
context per IP address, which could reduce the initialisation time, as
initialising even a non-ephemeral TLS context introduces some delay,
which can be *visually* noticeable by log activity.
Also, this change lays down a foundation for Mutual TLS (when the
server validates a client certificate, additionally to a client
validating the server), as the TLS context cache can be extended to
store additional data required for validation (like intermediates CA
chain).
Additionally to the above, the change ensures that the contexts are
not being changed after initialisation, as such a practice is frowned
upon. Previously we would set the supported ALPN tags within
isc_nm_listenhttp() and isc_nm_listentlsdns(). We do not do that for
client-side contexts, so that appears to be an overlook. Now we set
the supported ALPN tags right after server-side contexts creation,
similarly how we do for client-side ones.
This commit adds a TLS context object cache implementation. The
intention of having this object is manyfold:
- In the case of client-side contexts: allow reusing the previously
created contexts to employ the context-specific TLS session resumption
cache. That will enable XoT connection to be reestablished faster and
with fewer resources by not going through the full TLS handshake
procedure.
- In the case of server-side contexts: reduce the number of contexts
created on startup. That could reduce startup time in a case when
there are many "listen-on" statements referring to a smaller amount of
`tls` statements, especially when "ephemeral" certificates are
involved.
- The long-term goal is to provide in-memory storage for additional
data associated with the certificates, like runtime
representation (X509_STORE) of intermediate CA-certificates bundle for
Strict TLS/Mutual TLS ("ca-file").
Commit 9ee60e7a17 erroneously introduced
duplicate conditions to several existing conditional statements
responsible for determining error codes passed to connection callbacks
upon failure. Fix the affected expressions to ensure connection
callbacks are invoked with:
- the ISC_R_SHUTTINGDOWN error code when a global netmgr shutdown is
in progress,
- the ISC_R_CANCELED error code when a specific operation has been
canceled.
This does not fix any known bugs, it only adjusts the changes introduced
by commit 9ee60e7a17 so that they match
its original intent.
The SSL_CTX_set_keylog_callback() function is a fairly recent OpenSSL
addition, having first appeared in version 1.1.1. Add a configure.ac
check for the availability of that function to prevent build errors on
older platforms. Sort similar checks alphabetically.
This makes the SSLKEYLOGFILE mechanism a silent no-op on unsupported
platforms, which is considered acceptable for a debugging feature.
Generate log messages containing TLS pre-master secrets when the
SSLKEYLOGFILE environment variable is set. This only ensures such
messages are prepared using the right logging category and passed to
libisc for further processing.
The TLS pre-master secret logging callback needs to be set on a
per-context basis, so ensure it happens for both client-side and
server-side TLS contexts.
TLS pre-master secrets will be dumped to disk using the logging
framework provided by libisc. Add a new logging category for this type
of debugging data in order to enable exporting it to a dedicated
channel. Derive the name of the new category from the name of the
relevant environment variable, SSLKEYLOGFILE.
ECDSA P-256 performs considerably better than the previously used
4096-bit RSA (can be observed using `openssl speed`), and, according
to RFC 6605, provides a security level comparable to 3072-bit RSA.
Previously, whole isc_mempool_get() and isc_mempool_set() would be
replaced by simpler version when run with address sanitizer.
Change the code to limit the fillcount to 1 and freemax to 0. This
change will make isc_mempool_get() to always allocate and use a single
new item and isc_mempool_put() will always return the item to the
allocator.
OpenSSL 3.0.1 does not accept 0 as a digest buffer length when
calling EVP_DigestSignFinal as it now checks that the digest buffer
length is large enough for the digest. Pass the digest buffer
length instead.
Surprising error IO error is returned when directory name
is given instead of named.conf file. It can be passed to named-checkconf
or include statement. Make a simple change to return Invalid file
instead. Still not precise, but much better error message is returned.
Fix of rhbz#490837.
Mutex debugging code (used when the ISC_MUTEX_DEBUG preprocessor macro
is set to 1 and PTHREAD_MUTEX_ERRORCHECK is defined) has been broken for
the past 3 years (since commit 2f3eee5a4f)
and nobody complained, which is a strong indication that this code is
not being used these days any more. External tools for detecting
locking issues are already wired into various GitLab CI checks. Drop
all code depending on the ISC_MUTEX_DEBUG preprocessor macro being set.
Mutex profiling code (used when the ISC_MUTEX_PROFILE preprocessor macro
is set to 1) has been broken for the past 3 years (since commit
0bed9bfc28) and nobody complained, which
is a strong indication that this code is not being used these days any
more. External tools for both measuring performance and detecting
locking issues are already wired into various GitLab CI checks. Drop
all code depending on the ISC_MUTEX_PROFILE preprocessor macro being
set.
On FreeBSD, the pthread primitives are not solely allocated on stack,
but part of the object lives on the heap. Missing pthread_*_destroy
causes the heap memory to grow and in case of fast lived object it's
possible to run out-of-memory.
Properly destroy the leaking mutex (worker->lock) and
the leaking condition (sock->cond).
Previously, we set the number of the hazard pointers to be 4 times the
number of workers because the dispatch ran on the old socket code.
Since the old socket code was removed there's a smaller number of
threads, namely:
- 1 main thread
- 1 timer thread
- <n> netmgr threads
- <n> threadpool threads
Set the number of hazard pointers to 2 + 2 * workers.
Previously, the isc_hp_init() could not lower the value of
isc__hp_max_threads, but because of a mistake the isc__hp_max_threads
would be set to HP_MAX_THREADS (e.g. 128 threads) thus it would be
always set to 128. This would result in increased memory usage even
when small number of workers were in use.
Change the default value of isc__hp_max_threads to be 1.
Additionally, enforce the max_hps value in isc_hp_new() to be smaller or
equal to HP_MAX_HPS. The only user is isc_queue which uses just 1
hazard pointer, so it's only theoretical issue.
Previously, when TCP accept failed, we have logged a message with
ISC_LOG_ERROR level. One common case, how this could happen is that the
client hits TCP client quota and is put on hold and when resumed, the
client has already given up and closed the TCP connection. In such
case, the named would log:
TCP connection failed: socket is not connected
This message was quite confusing because it actually doesn't say that
it's related to the accepting the TCP connection and also it logs
everything on the ISC_LOG_ERROR level.
Change the log message to "Accepting TCP connection failed" and for
specific error states lower the severity of the log message to
ISC_LOG_INFO.
There was a logical bug when setting a list of enabled TLS protocols,
which may lead to a crash (an abort()) on systems with ancient OpenSSL
versions.
The problem was due to the fact that we were INSIST()ing on supporting
all of the TLS versions, while checking only for mentioned in the
configuration was implied.
This commit adds an isc_nm_socket_type() function which can be used to
obtain a handle's socket type.
This change obsoletes isc_nm_is_tlsdns_handle() and
isc_nm_is_http_handle(). However, it was decided to keep the latter as
we eventually might end up supporting multiple HTTP versions.
This commit makes the TLS stream code to not issue mostly useless
debug log message on error during TLS I/O. This message was cluttering
logs a lot, as it can be generated on (almost) any non-clean TLS
connection termination, even in the cases when the actual query
completed successfully. Nor does it provide much value for end-users,
yet it can occasionally be seen when using dig and quite often when
running BIND over a publicly available network interface.
This commit removes unneeded isc__nmsocket_prep_destroy() call on ALPN
negotiation failure, which was eventually causing the TLS handle to
leak.
This call is not needed, as not attaching to the transport (TLS)
handle should be enough. At this point it seems like a kludge from
earlier days of the TLS code.
This prevents a direct leak in OPENSSL_init_crypto (called from
OPENSSL_init_ssl).
Add shim version of OPENSSL_cleanup because it is missing in LibreSSL on
OpenBSD.
This commit fixes a peculiar corner case in the client-side DoT code
because of which a crash could occur during a zone transfer. A junk
DNS message should be sent at the end of a zone transfer via TLS to
trigger the crash (abort).
This commit, hopefully, fixes that.
Also, this commit adds similar changes to the TCP DNS code, as it
shares the same origin and most of the logic.
Change 5756 (GL #2854) introduced build errors when using
'configure --disable-doh'. To fix this, isc_nm_is_http_handle() is
now defined in all builds, not just builds that have DoH enabled.
Missing code comments were added both for that function and for
isc_nm_is_tlsdns_handle().
This commit adds an isc_nm_set_min_answer_ttl() function which is
intended to to be used to give a hint to the underlying transport
regarding the answer TTL.
The interface is intentionally kept generic because over time more
transports might benefit from this functionality, but currently it is
intended for DoH to set "max-age" value within "Cache-Control" HTTP
header (as recommended in the RFC8484, section 5.1 "Cache
Interaction").
It is no-op for other DNS transports for the time being.
Check to see whether there are outstanding requests in the
httpd receive buffer after sending the response, and if so,
process them.
Test that pipelined requests are handled by sending multiple
minimal HTTP/1.1 using netcat (nc) and checking that we get
back the same number of responses.
Remember the amount of space consumed by the HTTP headers, then
move any trailing data to the start of the httpd->recvbuf once
we have finished processing the request.
if an incoming HTTP request is incomplete, but nothing else is clearly
wrong with it, the stats channel continues reading to see if there's
more coming. the buffer length was not being processed correctly in
this case. also, the server state was not reset correctly when the
request was complete, so that subsequent requests could be appended to
the first buffer instead of being treated as new.
in addition fixing the above problems, this commit also increases the
size of the httpd request buffer from 1024 to 4096, because some
browsers send a lot of headers.
Unless being configured with the `no-deprecated` option, OpenSSL 3.0.0
still has the deprecated APIs present and will throw warnings during
compilation, when using them.
Make sure that the old APIs are being used only with the older versions
of OpenSSL.
The EVP_MD_CTX_new() and EVP_MD_CTX_free() functions are renamed APIs
which were previously available as EVP_MD_CTX_create() and
EVP_MD_CTX_destroy() respectively, which means that we can use them
instead of providing our own shim functions.
OpenSSL 3.0.0 deprecates the EVP_MD_CTX_md() function.
Use EVP_MD_CTX_md() instead of EVP_MD_CTX_get0_md() and create a shim
to use the old variant for the older OpenSSL versions which don't have
the newer EVP_MD_CTX_get0_md().
The isc_time_add() and isc_time_subtract() didn't have a unit test, add
the unit test with couple of edge case vectors to check whether overflow
and underflow is correctly handled.
Use the __builtin_uadd_overflow() and __builtin_usub_overflow() for
overflow checks in isc_time_add() and isc_time_subtract(). This
generates more efficient and safe code.
The isc_time_add() could overflow when t.seconds + i.seconds == UINT_MAX
and t.nanoseconds + i.nanoseconds >= NS_PER_S.
Fix the overflow in isc_time_add(), and simplify the ISC_R_RANGE checks
both in isc_time_add() and isc_time_subtract() functions.
it is possible for udp_recv_cb() to fire after the socket
is already shutting down and statichandle is NULL; we need to
create a temporary handle in this case.
route/netlink sockets don't have stats counters associated with them,
so it's now necessary to check whether socket stats exist before
incrementing or decrementing them. rather than relying on the caller
for this, we now just pass the socket and an index, and the correct
stats counter will be updated if it exists.
isc_nm_routeconnect() opens a route/netlink socket, then calls a
connect callback, much like isc_nm_udpconnect(), with a handle that
can then be monitored for network changes.
Internally the socket is treated as a UDP socket, since route/netlink
sockets follow the datagram contract.
After support for route/netlink sockets is merged, not all sockets
will have stats counters associated with them, so it's now necessary
to check whether socket stats exist before incrementing or decrementing
them. rather than relying on the caller for this, we now just pass the
socket and an index, and the correct stats counter will be updated if
it exists.
The __builtin_expect() can be used to provide the compiler with branch
prediction information. The Gcc manual says[1] on the subject:
In general, you should prefer to use actual profile feedback for
this (-fprofile-arcs), as programmers are notoriously bad at
predicting how their programs actually perform.
Stop using __builtin_expect() and ISC_LIKELY() and ISC_UNLIKELY() macros
to provide the branch prediction information as the performance testing
shows that named performs better when the __builtin_expect() is not
being used.

due to comparing logfile suffixes as 32 bit rather than 64 bit
integers, logfiles with timestamp suffixes that should have been
removed when rolling could be left in place. this has been fixed.
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.

Replace some "master/slave" terminology in the code with the preferred
"primary/secondary" keywords. This also changes user output such as
log messages, and fixes a typo ("seconary") in cfg_test.c.
There are still some references to "master" and "slave" for various
reasons:
- The old syntax can still be used as a synonym.
- The master syntax is kept when it refers to master files and formats.
- This commit replaces mainly keywords that are local. If "master" or
"slave" is used in for example a structure that is all over the
place, it is considered out of scope for the moment.
The AX_CHECK_JEMALLOC() m4 macro sets the JEMALLOC_CFLAGS variable, not
JEMALLOC_CPPFLAGS. Furthermore, the JEMALLOC_CFLAGS and JEMALLOC_LIBS
variables should only be included in the build flags if jemalloc was
successfully configured. Tweak lib/isc/Makefile.am accordingly.
Remove the dynamic registration of result codes. Convert isc_result_t
from unsigned + #defines into 32-bit enum type in grand unified
<isc/result.h> header. Keep the existing values of the result codes
even at the expense of the description and identifier tables being
unnecessary large.
Additionally, add couple of:
switch (result) {
[...]
default:
break;
}
statements where compiler now complains about missing enum values in the
switch statement.
Previously, when using compiler without support for static assertions,
the STATIC_ASSERT() macro would be replaced with runtime assertion.
Change the STATIC_ASSERT() macro to a version that's compile time
assertion even when using pre-C11 compilers.

This commit fixes a crash in DoT code when it was attempting to call a
read callback on the later stages of the connection when it is not
available.
It also fixes [GL #2884] (back-trace provided in the bug report is
exactly the same as was seen when fixing this problem).
This commit makes BIND verify that zone transfers are allowed to be
done over the underlying connection. Currently, it makes sense only
for DoT, but the code is deliberately made to be protocol-agnostic.
The intention of having this function is to have a predicate to check
if a zone transfer could be performed over the given handle. In most
cases we can assume that we can do zone transfers over any stream
transport except DoH, but this assumption will not work for zone
transfers over DoT (XoT), as the RFC9103 requires ALPN to happen,
which might not be the case for all deployments of DoT.
- Responses received by the dispatch are no longer sent to the caller
via a task event, but via a netmgr-style recv callback. the 'action'
parameter to dns_dispatch_addresponse() is now called 'response' and
is called directly from udp_recv() or tcp_recv() when a valid response
has been received.
- All references to isc_task and isc_taskmgr have been removed from
dispatch functions.
- All references to dns_dispatchevent_t have been removed and the type
has been deleted.
- Added a task to the resolver response context, to be used for fctx
events.
- When the caller cancels an operation, the response handler will be
called with ISC_R_CANCELED; it can abort immediately since the caller
will presumably have taken care of cleanup already.
- Cleaned up attach/detach in resquery and request.
- The `timeout_action` parameter to dns_dispatch_addresponse() been
replaced with a netmgr callback that is called when a dispatch read
times out. this callback may optionally reset the read timer and
resume reading.
- Added a function to convert isc_interval to milliseconds; this is used
to translate fctx->interval into a value that can be passed to
dns_dispatch_addresponse() as the timeout.
- Note that netmgr timeouts are accurate to the millisecond, so code to
check whether a timeout has been reached cannot rely on microsecond
accuracy.
- If serve-stale is configured, then a timeout received by the resolver
may trigger it to return stale data, and then resume waiting for the
read timeout. this is no longer based on a separate stale timer.
- The code for canceling requests in request.c has been altered so that
it can run asynchronously.
- TCP timeout events apply to the dispatch, which may be shared by
multiple queries. since in the event of a timeout we have no query ID
to use to identify the resp we wanted, we now just send the timeout to
the oldest query that was pending.
- There was some additional refactoring in the resolver: combining
fctx_join() and fctx_try_events() into one function to reduce code
duplication, and using fixednames in fetchctx and fetchevent.
- Incidental fix: new_adbaddrinfo() can't return NULL anymore, so the
code can be simplified.
The flow of operations in dispatch is changing and will now be similar
for both UDP and TCP queries:
1) Call dns_dispatch_addresponse() to assign a query ID and register
that we'll be listening for a response with that ID soon. the
parameters for this function include callback functions to inform the
caller when the socket is connected and when the message has been
sent, as well as a task action that will be sent when the response
arrives. (later this could become a netmgr callback, but at this
stage to minimize disruption to the calling code, we continue to use
isc_task for the response event.) on successful completion of this
function, a dispatch entry object will be instantiated.
2) Call dns_dispatch_connect() on the dispatch entry. this runs
isc_nm_udpconnect() or isc_nm_tcpdnsconnect(), as needed, and begins
listening for responses. the caller is informed via a callback
function when the connection is established.
3) Call dns_dispatch_send() on the dispatch entry. this runs
isc_nm_send() to send a request.
4) Call dns_dispatch_removeresponse() to terminate listening and close
the connection.
Implementation comments below:
- As we will be using netmgr buffers now. code to send the length in
TCP queries has also been removed as that is handled by the netmgr.
- TCP dispatches can be used by multiple simultaneous queries, so
dns_dispatch_connect() now checks whether the dispatch is already
connected before calling isc_nm_tcpdnsconnect() again.
- Running dns_dispatch_getnext() from a non-network thread caused a
crash due to assertions in the netmgr read functions that appear to be
unnecessary now. the assertions have been removed.
- fctx->nqueries was formerly incremented when the connection was
successful, but is now incremented when the query is started and
decremented if the connection fails.
- It's no longer necessary for each dispatch to have a pool of tasks, so
there's now a single task per dispatch.
- Dispatch code to avoid UDP ports already in use has been removed.
- dns_resolver and dns_request have been modified to use netmgr callback
functions instead of task events. some additional changes were needed
to handle shutdown processing correctly.
- Timeout processing is not yet fully converted to use netmgr timeouts.
- Fixed a lock order cycle reported by TSAN (view -> zone-> adb -> view)
by by calling dns_zt functions without holding the view lock.
- The read timer must always be stopped when reading stops.
- Read callbacks can now call isc_nm_read() again in TCP, TCPDNS and
TLSDNS; previously this caused an assertion.
- The wrong failure code could be sent after a UDP recv failure because
the if statements were in the wrong order. the check for a NULL
address needs to be after the check for an error code, otherwise the
result will always be set to ISC_R_EOF.
- When aborting a read or connect because the netmgr is shutting down,
use ISC_R_SHUTTINGDOWN. (ISC_R_CANCELED is now reserved for when the
read has been canceled by the caller.)
- A new function isc_nmhandle_timer_running() has been added enabling a
callback to check whether the timer has been reset after processing a
timeout.
- Incidental netmgr fix: always use isc__nm_closing() instead of
referencing sock->mgr->closing directly
- Corrected a few comments that used outdated function names.
Previously isc_nm_read() required references on the handle to be at
least 2, under the assumption that it would only ever be called from a
connect or accept callback. however, it can also be called from a read
callback, in which case the reference count might be only 1.
- Many dispatch attributes can be set implicitly instead of being passed
in. we can infer whether to set DNS_DISPATCHATTR_TCP or _UDP from
whether we're calling dns_dispatch_createtcp() or _createudp(). we
can also infer DNS_DISPATCHATTR_IPV4 or _IPV6 from the addresses or
the socket that were passed in.
- We no longer use dup'd sockets in UDP dispatches, so the 'dup_socket'
parameter has been removed from dns_dispatch_createudp(), along with
the code implementing it. also removed isc_socket_dup() since it no
longer has any callers.
- The 'buffersize' parameter was ignored and has now been removed;
buffersize is now fixed at 4096.
- Maxbuffers and maxrequests don't need to be passed in on every call to
dns_dispatch_createtcp() and _createudp().
In all current uses, the value for mgr->maxbuffers will either be
raised once from its default of 20000 to 32768, or else left
alone. (passing in a value lower than 20000 does not lower it.) there
isn't enough difference between these values for there to be any need
to configure this.
The value for disp->maxrequests controls both the quota of concurrent
requests for a dispatch and also the size of the dispatch socket
memory pool. it's not clear that this quota is necessary at all. the
memory pool size currently starts at 32768, but is sometimes lowered
to 4096, which is definitely unnecessary.
This commit sets both values permanently to 32768.
- Previously TCP dispatches allocated their own separate QID table,
which didn't incorporate a port table. this commit removes
per-dispatch QID tables and shares the same table between all
dispatches. since dispatches are created for each TCP socket, this may
speed up the dispatch allocation process. there may be a slight
increase in lock contention since all dispatches are sharing a single
QID table, but since TCP sockets are used less often than UDP
sockets (which were already sharing a QID table), it should not be a
substantial change.
- The dispatch port table was being used to determine whether a port was
already in use; if so, then a UDP socket would be bound with
REUSEADDR. this commit removes the port table, and always binds UDP
sockets that way.
This commit adds the ability to enable or disable stateless TLS
session resumption tickets (see RFC5077). Having this ability is
twofold.
Firstly, these tickets are encrypted by the server, and the algorithm
might be weaker than the algorithm negotiated during the TLS session
establishment (it is in general the case for TLSv1.2, but the generic
principle applies to TLSv1.3 as well, despite it having better ciphers
for session tickets). Thus, they might compromise Perfect Forward
Secrecy.
Secondly, disabling it might be necessary if the same TLS key/cert
pair is supposed to be used by multiple servers to achieve, e.g., load
balancing because the session ticket by default gets generated in
runtime, while to achieve successful session resumption ability, in
this case, would have required using a shared key.
The proper alternative to having the ability to disable stateless TLS
session resumption tickets is to implement a proper session tickets
key rollover mechanism so that key rotation might be performed
often (e.g. once an hour) to not compromise forward secrecy while
retaining the associated performance benefits. That is much more work,
though. On the other hand, having the ability to disable session
tickets allows having a deployable configuration right now in the
cases when either forward secrecy is wanted or sharing the TLS
key/cert pair between multiple servers is needed (or both).
This commit adds support for enforcing the preference of server
ciphers over the client ones. This way, the server attains control
over the ciphers priority and, thus, can choose more strong cyphers
when a client prioritises less strong ciphers over the more strong
ones, which is beneficial when trying to achieve Perfect Forward
Secrecy.
This commit adds support for setting TLS cipher list string in the
format specified in the OpenSSL
documentation (https://www.openssl.org/docs/man1.1.1/man1/ciphers.html).
The syntax of the cipher list is verified so that specifying the wrong
string will prevent the configuration from being loaded.
This commit adds support for loading DH-parameters (Diffie-Hellman
parameters) via the new "dhparam-file" option within "tls" clause. In
particular, Diffie-Hellman parameters are needed to enable the range
of forward-secrecy enabled cyphers for TLSv1.2, which are getting
silently disabled otherwise.
This commit adds the ability to specify allowed TLS protocols versions
within the "tls" clause. If an unsupported TLS protocol version is
specified in a file, the configuration file will not pass
verification.
Also, this commit adds strict checks for "tls" clauses verification,
in particular:
- it ensures that loading configuration files containing duplicated
"tls" clauses is not allowed;
- it ensures that loading configuration files containing "tls" clauses
missing "cert-file" or "key-file" is not allowed;
- it ensures that loading configuration files containing "tls" clauses
named as "ephemeral" or "none" is not allowed.
It was discovered that named could crash due to a segmentation fault
when jemalloc was in use and memory allocation failed. This was not
intended to happen as jemalloc's "xmalloc" option was set to "true" in
the "malloc_conf" configuration variable. However, that variable was
only set after jemalloc was already done with parsing it, which
effectively caused setting that variable to have no effect.
While investigating this issue, it was also discovered that enabling the
"xmalloc" option makes jemalloc use a slow processing path, decreasing
its performance by about 25%. [1]
Additionally, further testing (carried out after fixing the way
"malloc_conf" was set) revealed that the non-default configuration
options do not have any measurable effect on either authoritative or
recursive DNS server performance.
Replace code setting various jemalloc options to non-default values with
assertion checks of mallocx()/rallocx() return values.

On TCPDNS/TLSDNS read callback, the socket buffer could be reallocated
if the received contents would be larger than the buffer. The existing
code would not preserve the contents of the existing buffer which lead
to the loss of the already received data.
This commit changes the isc_mem_put()+isc_mem_get() with isc_mem_reget()
to preserve the existing contents of the socket buffer.
The netmgr, has an internal cache for freed active handles. This cache
was allocated using isc_mem_allocate()/isc_mem_free() API because it was
simpler to reallocate the cache when we needed to grow it. The new
isc_mem_reget() function could be used here reducing the need to use
isc_mem_allocate() API which is tad bit slower than isc_mem_get() API.
Previously, we cannot use isc_mem_reallocate() for growing the buffer
dynamically, because the memory was allocated using the
isc_mem_get()/isc_mem_put() API. With the introduction of the
isc_mem_reget() function, we can use grow/shrink the memory directly
without always moving the memory around as the allocator might have
reserved some extra space after the initial allocation.
Previously, the zero-sized allocations would return NULL pointer and the
caller had to make sure to not dereference such pointer. The C standard
defines the zero-sized calls to malloc() as implementation specific and
jemalloc mallocx() with zero size would be undefined behaviour. This
complicated the code as it had to handle such cases in a special manner
in all allocator and deallocator functions.
Now, for realloc(), the situation is even more complicated. In C
standard up to C11, the behavior would be implementation defined, and
actually some implementation would free to orig ptr and some would not.
Since C17 (via DR400) would deprecate such usage and since C23, the
behaviour would be undefined.
This commits changes helper mem_get(), mem_put() and mem_realloc()
functions to grow the zero-allocation from 0 to sizeof(void *).
This way we get a predicable behaviour that all the allocations will
always return valid pointer.
The isc_mem_get() and isc_mem_put() functions are leaving the memory
allocation size tracking to the users of the API, while
isc_mem_allocate() and isc_mem_free() would track the sizes internally.
This allowed to have isc_mem_rellocate() to manipulate the memory
allocations by the later set, but not the former set of the functions.
This commit introduces isc_mem_reget(ctx, old_ptr, old_size, new_size)
function that operates on the memory allocations with external size
tracking completing the API.
The native PKCS#11 support has been removed in favour of better
maintained, more performance and easier to use OpenSSL PKCS#11 engine
from the OpenSC project.
This commit adds new function isc_nm_http_makeuri() which is supposed
to unify DoH URI construction throughout the codebase.
It handles IPv6 addresses, hostnames, and IPv6 addresses given as
hostnames properly, and replaces similar ad-hoc code in the codebase.
The previous versions of BIND 9 exported its internal libraries so that
they can be used by third-party applications more easily. Certain
library functions were altered from specific BIND-only behavior to more
generic behavior when used by other applications.
This commit removes the function isc_lib_register() that was used by
external applications to enable the functionality.
this commit removes isc__nm_tcpdns_keepalive() and
isc__nm_tlsdns_keepalive(); keepalive for these protocols and
for TCP will now be set directly from isc_nmhandle_keepalive().
protocols that have an underlying TCP socket (i.e., TLS stream
and HTTP), now have protocol-specific routines, called by
isc_nmhandle_keeaplive(), to set the keepalive value on the
underlying socket.
previously, receiving a keepalive option had no effect on how
long named would keep the connection open; there was a place to
configure the keepalive timeout but it was never used. this commit
corrects that.
this also fixes an error in isc__nm_{tcp,tls}dns_keepalive()
in which the sense of a REQUIRE test was reversed; previously this
error had not been noticed because the functions were not being
used.
- fix some duplicated and out-of-order prototypes declared in
netmgr-int.h
- rename isc_nm_tcpdns_keepalive to isc__nm_tcpdns_keepalive as
it's for internal use
This commit changes the DoH code in such a way that it makes no
assumptions regarding which headers are expected to be processed
first. In particular, the code expected the :method: pseudo-header to
be processed early, which might not be true.
Add a new function to resize the number of counters in a statistics
counter structure. This will be needed when we keep track of DNSSEC
sign statistics and new keys are introduced due to a rollover.
Add a simple stats unit test that tests the existing library functions
isc_stats_ncounters, isc_stats_increment, isc_stats_decrement,
isc_stats_set, and isc_stats_update_if_greater.
Instead of disabling the fragmentation on the UDP sockets, we now
disable the Path MTU Discovery by setting IP(V6)_MTU_DISCOVER socket
option to IP_PMTUDISC_OMIT on Linux and disabling IP(V6)_DONTFRAG socket
option on FreeBSD. This option sets DF=0 in the IP header and also
ignores the Path MTU Discovery.
As additional mitigation on Linux, we recommend setting
net.ipv4.ip_no_pmtu_disc to Mode 3:
Mode 3 is a hardend pmtu discover mode. The kernel will only accept
fragmentation-needed errors if the underlying protocol can verify
them besides a plain socket lookup. Current protocols for which pmtu
events will be honored are TCP, SCTP and DCCP as they verify
e.g. the sequence number or the association. This mode should not be
enabled globally but is only intended to secure e.g. name servers in
namespaces where TCP path mtu must still work but path MTU
information of other protocols should be discarded. If enabled
globally this mode could break other protocols.
The commit fixes the doh_recv_send() because occasionally it would
fail because it did not wait for all responses to be sent, making the
check for ssends value to nit pass.
This commit changes TLS stream behaviour in such a way, that it is now
optimised for small writes. In the case there is a need to write less
or equal to 512 bytes, we could avoid calling the memory allocator at
the expense of possibly slight increase in memory usage. In case of
larger writes, the behviour remains unchanged.
At least at this point doing memory copying is not required. Probably
it was a workaround for some problem in the earlier days of DoH, at
this point it appears to be a waste of CPU cycles.
This commit significantly simplifies the code in http_send_outgoing()
as it was unnecessary complicated, because it was dealing with
multiple statically and dynamically allocated buffers, making it
extremely hard to follow, as well as making it to do unnecessary
memory copying in some situations. This commit fixes these issues,
while retaining the high level buffering logic.
When an HTTP/2 client terminates a session it means that it is about
to close the underlying connection. However, we were not doing that.
As a result, with the latest changes to the test suite, which made it
to limit amount of requests per a transport connection, the tests
using quota would hang for quite a while. This commit fixes that.
This commit ensures that only a limited number of requests is going to
be sent over a single HTTP/2 connection. Before that change was
introduced, it was possible to complete all of the planned sends via
only one transport connection, which undermines the purpose of the
tests using the quota facility.
The function should not be called here because it is, in general,
supposed to be called at the end of the transport level callbacks to
perform I/O, and thus, calling it here is clearly a mistake because it
breaks other code expectations. As a result of the call to
http_do_bio() from within isc__nm_http_request() the unit tests were
running slower than expected in some situations.
In this particular situation http_do_bio() is going to be called at
the end of the transport_connect_cb() (initially), or http_readcb(),
sending all of the scheduled requests at once.
This change affects only the test suite because it is the only place
in the codebase where isc__nm_http_request() is used in order to
ensure that the server is able to handle multiple HTTP/2 streams at
once.
This commit fixes a crash in DoH caused by transport handle to be
detached too early when sending outgoing data.
We need to attach to the session->handle earlier because as an
indirect result of the nghttp2_session_mem_send() the session might
get closed and the handle detached. However, there is still might be
some outgoing data to handle. Besides, even when the underlying socket
was closed via the handle, we still should try to attempt to send
outgoing data via isc_nm_send() to let it call write callback, passed
to the http_send_outgoing().
This commit gets rid of custom code taking care of response buffering
by replacing the custom code with isc_buffer_t. Also, it gets rid of
an unnecessary memory copying when sending a response.
This commit replaces the ad-hoc 64K buffer for incoming POST data with
isc_buffer_t backed by dynamically allocated buffer sized accordingly
to the value in the "Content-Length" header.
The commit replaces an ad-hoc incoming DNS-message buffer in the
client-side DoH code with isc_buffer_t.
The commit also fixes a timing issue in the unit tests revealed by the
change.
This commit replaces a static ad-hoc HTTP/2 session's temporary buffer
with a realloc-able isc_buffer_t object, which is being allocated on
as needed basis, lowering the memory consumption somewhat. The buffer
is needed in very rare cases, so allocating it prematurely is not
wise.
Also, it fixes a bug in http_readcb() where the ad-hoc buffer appeared
to be improperly used, leading to a situation when the processed data
from the receiving regions can be processed twice, while unprocessed
data will never be processed.
This commit gets rid of RW locks in a hot path of the DoH code. In the
original design, it was implied that we add new endpoints after the
HTTP listener was created. Such a design implies some locking. We do
not need such flexibility, though. Instead, we could build a set of
endpoints before the HTTP listener gets created. Such a design does
not need RW locks at all.
On the isc_mem water change the old water_t structure could be used
after free. Instead of introducing reference counting on the hot-path
we are going to introduce additional constraints on the
isc_mem_setwater. Once it's set for the first time, the additional
calls have to be made with the same water and water_arg arguments.
This commit makes number of concurrent HTTP/2 streams per connection
configurable as a mean to fight DDoS attacks. As soon as the limit is
reached, BIND terminates the whole session.
The commit adds a global configuration
option (http-streams-per-connection) which can be overridden in an
http <name> {...} statement like follows:
http local-http-server {
...
streams-per-connection 100;
...
};
For now the default value is 100, which should be enough (e.g. NGINX
uses 128, but it is a full-featured WEB-server). When using lower
numbers (e.g. ~70), it is possible to hit the limit with
e.g. flamethrower.
This commit adds support for http-listener-clients global options as
well as ability to override the default in an HTTP server description,
like:
http local-http-server {
...
listener-clients 100;
...
};
This way we have ability to specify per-listener active connections
quota globally and then override it when required. This is exactly
what AT&T requested us: they wanted a functionality to specify quota
globally and then override it for specific IPs. This change
functionality makes such a configuration possible.
It makes sense: for example, one could have different quotas for
internal and external clients. Or, for example, one could use BIND's
internal ability to serve encrypted DoH with some sane quota value for
internal clients, while having un-encrypted DoH listener without quota
to put BIND behind a load balancer doing TLS offloading for external
clients.
Moreover, the code no more shares the quota with TCP, which makes
little sense anyway (see tcp-clients option), because of the nature of
interaction of DoH clients: they tend to keep idle opened connections
for longer periods of time, preventing the TCP and TLS client from
being served. Thus, the need to have a separate, generally larger,
quota for them.
Also, the change makes any option within "http <name> { ... };"
statement optional, making it easier to override only required default
options.
By default, the DoH connections are limited to 300 per listener. I
hope that it is a good initial guesstimate.
This commit adds the code (and some tests) which allows verifying
validity of HTTP paths both in incoming HTTP requests and in BIND's
configuration file.
An unhandled code path left GET query string data uninitialised (equal
to NULL) and led to a crash during the requests' base64 data
decoding. This commit fixes that.
It was discovered that setting the thread affinity on both the netmgr
and netthread threads lead to inconsistent recursive performance because
sometimes the netmgr and netthread threads would compete over single
resource and sometimes not.
Removing setting the affinity causes a slight dip in the authoritative
performance around 5% (the measured range was from 3.8% to 7.8%), but
the recursive performance is now consistently good.
On OpenBSD and more generally on platforms without either jemalloc or
malloc_(usable_)size, we need to increase the alignment for the memory
to sizeof(max_align_t) as with plain sizeof(void *), the compiled code
would be crashing when accessing the returned memory.
It was discovered that on some platforms (f.e. Alpine Linux with MUSL)
the result of isc_os_ncpus() call differ when called before and after we
drop privileges. This commit changes the isc_os_ncpus() call to cache
the result from the first call and thus always return the same value
during the runtime of the named. The first call to isc_os_ncpus() is
made as soon as possible on the library initalization.
The isc_mem_get(), isc_mem_allocate() and isc_mem_reallocate() can
return NULL ptr in case where the allocation size is NULL. Remove the
nonnull attribute from the functions' declarations.
This stems from the following definition in the C11 standard:
> If the size of the space requested is zero, the behavior is
> implementation-defined: either a null pointer is returned, or the
> behavior is as if the size were some nonzero value, except that the
> returned pointer shall not be used to access an object.
In this case, we return NULL as it's easier to detect errors when
accessing pointer from zero-sized allocation which should obviously
never happen.
In the rallocx() shim for OpenBSD (that's the only platform that doesn't
have malloc_size() or malloc_usable_size() equivalent), the newly
allocated size was missing the extra size_t member for storing the
allocation size leading to size_t sized overflow at the end of the
reallocated memory chunk.
In the jemalloc merge request, we missed the fact that ah_frees and ah_handles
are reallocated which is not compatible with using isc_mem_get() for allocation
and isc_mem_put() for deallocation. This commit reverts that part and restores
use of isc_mem_allocate() and isc_mem_free().
Previously, the isc_mem_allocate() and isc_mem_free() would be used for
isc_mem_total test, but since we now use the real allocation
size (sallocx, malloc_size, malloc_usable_size) to track the allocation
size, it's impossible to get the test value right. Changing the test to
use isc_mem_get() and isc_mem_put() will use the exact size provided, so
the test would work again on all the platforms even when jemalloc is not
being used.
This commit refactors the water mechanism in the isc_mem API to use
single pointer to a water_t structure that can be swapped with
atomic_exchange operation instead of having four different
values (water, water_arg, hi_water, lo_water) in the flat namespace.
This reduces the need for locking and prevents a race when water and
water_arg could be desynchronized.
Calls to jemalloc extended API with size == 0 ends up in undefined
behaviour. This commit makes the isc_mem_get() and friends calls
more POSIX aligned:
If size is 0, either a null pointer or a unique pointer that can be
successfully passed to free() shall be returned.
We picked the easier route (which have been already supported in the old
code) and return NULL on calls to the API where size == 0.
This commit adds support for systems where the jemalloc library is not
available as a package, here's the quick summary:
* On Linux - the jemalloc is usually available as a package, if
configured --without-jemalloc, the shim would be used around
malloc(), free(), realloc() and malloc_usable_size()
* On macOS - the jemalloc is available from homebrew or macports, if
configured --without-jemalloc, the shim would be used around
malloc(), free(), realloc() and malloc_size()
* On FreeBSD - the jemalloc is *the* system allocator, we just need
to check for <malloc_np.h> header to get access to non-standard API
* On NetBSD - the jemalloc is *the* system allocator, we just need to
check for <jemalloc/jemalloc.h> header to get access to non-standard
API
* On a system hostile to users and developers (read OpenBSD) - the
jemalloc API is emulated by using ((size_t *)ptr)[-1] field to hold
the size information. The OpenBSD developers care only for
themselves, so why should we care about speed on OpenBSD?
- isc_mempool_get() can no longer fail; when there are no more objects
in the pool, more are always allocated. checking for NULL return is
no longer necessary.
- the isc_mempool_setmaxalloc() and isc_mempool_getmaxalloc() functions
are no longer used and have been removed.
Current mempools are kind of hybrid structures - they serve two
purposes:
1. mempool with a lock is basically static sized allocator with
pre-allocated free items
2. mempool without a lock is a doubly-linked list of preallocated items
The first kind of usage could be easily replaced with jemalloc small
sized arena objects and thread-local caches.
The second usage not-so-much and we need to keep this (in
libdns:message.c) for performance reasons.
Previously, we only had capability to trace the mempool gets and puts,
but for debugging, it's sometimes also important to keep track how many
and where do the memory pools get created and destroyed. This commit
adds such tracking capability.
The isc_mem_allocate() comes with additional cost because of the memory
tracking. In this commit, we replace the usage with isc_mem_get()
because we track the allocated sizes anyway, so it's possible to also
replace isc_mem_free() with isc_mem_put().
The jemalloc non-standard API fits nicely with our memory contexts, so
just rewrite the memory context internals to use the non-public API.
There's just one caveat - since we no longer track the size of the
allocation for isc_mem_allocate/isc_mem_free combination, we need to use
sallocx() to get real allocation size in both allocator and deallocator
because otherwise the sizes would not match.
The ISC_MEM_DEBUGSIZE and ISC_MEM_DEBUGCTX did sanity checks on matching
size and memory context on the memory returned to the allocator. Those
will no longer needed when most of the allocator will be replaced with
jemalloc.
There's global variable called `malloc_conf` that can be used to
configure jemalloc behaviour at the program startup. We use following
configuration:
* xmalloc:true - abort-on-out-of-memory enabled.
* background_thread:true - Enable internal background worker threads
to handle purging asynchronously.
* metadata_thp:auto - allow jemalloc to use transparent huge page
(THP) for internal metadata initially, but may begin to do so when
metadata usage reaches certain level.
* dirty_decay_ms:30000 - Approximate time in milliseconds from the
creation of a set of unused dirty pages until an equivalent set of
unused dirty pages is purged and/or reused.
* muzzy_decay_ms:30000 - Approximate time in milliseconds from the
creation of a set of unused muzzy pages until an equivalent set of
unused muzzy pages is purged and/or reused.
More information about the specific meaning can be found in the jemalloc
manpage or online at http://jemalloc.net/jemalloc.3.html
The jemalloc allocator is scalable high performance allocator, this is
the first in the series of commits that will add jemalloc as a memory
allocator for BIND 9.
This commit adds configure.ac check and Makefile modifications to use
jemalloc as BIND 9 allocator.
Previously, we only had capability to trace the memory gets and puts,
but for debugging, it's sometimes also important to keep track how many
and where do the memory contexts get created and destroyed. This commit
adds such tracking capability.
This commit makes BIND return HTTP status codes for malformed or too
small requests.
DNS request processing code would ignore such requests. Such an
approach works well for other DNS transport but does not make much
sense for HTTP, not allowing it to complete the request/response
sequence.
Suppose execution has reached the point where DNS message handling
code has been called. In that case, it means that the HTTP request has
been successfully processed, and, thus, we are expected to respond to
it either with a message containing some DNS payload or at least to
return an error status code. This commit ensures that BIND behaves
this way.
This error code fits better than the more generic "Internal Server
Error" (500) which implies that the problem is on the server.
Also, do not end the whole HTTP/2 session on a bad request.
We were too strict regarding the value and presence of "Accept" HTTP
header, slightly breaking compatibility with the specification.
According to RFC8484 client SHOULD add "Accept" header to the requests
but MUST be able to handle "application/dns-message" media type
regardless of the value of the header. That basically suggests we
ignore its value.
Besides, verifying the value of the "Accept" header is a bit tricky
because it could contain multiple media types, thus requiring proper
parsing. That is doable but does not provide us with any benefits.
Among other things, not verifying the value also fixes compatibility
with clients, which could advertise multiple media types as supported,
which we should accept. For example, it is possible for a perfectly
valid request to contain "application/dns-message", "application/*",
and "*/*" in the "Accept" header value. Still, we would treat such a
request as invalid.
The commit fixes BIND hanging when browsers end HTTP/2 streams
prematurely (for example, by sending RST_STREAM). It ensures that
isc__nmsocket_prep_destroy() will be called for an HTTP/2 stream,
allowing it to be properly disposed.
The problem was impossible to reproduce using dig or DoH benchmarking
software (e.g. flamethrower) because these do not tend to end HTTP/2
streams prematurely.
This commit adds two new autoconf options `--enable-doh` (enabled by
default) and `--with-libnghttp2` (mandatory when DoH is enabled).
When DoH support is disabled the library is not linked-in and support
for http(s) protocol is disabled in the netmgr, named and dig.
The isc/platform.h header was left empty which things either already
moved to config.h or to appropriate headers. This is just the final
cleanup commit.
The last remaining defines needed for platforms without NAME_MAX and
PATH_MAX (I'm looking at you, GNU Hurd) were moved to isc/dir.h where
it's prevalently used.
The ISC_STRERRORSIZE was defined in isc/platform.h header as the
value was different between Windows and POSIX platforms. Now that
Windows is gone, move the define to where it belongs.
The Makefile.tests was modifying global AM_CFLAGS and LDADD and could
accidentally pull /usr/include to be listed before the internal
libraries, which is known to cause problems if the headers from the
previous version of BIND 9 has been installed on the build machine.
In DNS Flag Day 2020, we started setting the DF (Don't Fragment socket
option on the UDP sockets. It turned out, that this code was incomplete
leading to dropping the outgoing UDP packets.
This has been now remedied, so it is possible to disable the
fragmentation on the UDP sockets again as the sending error is now
handled by sending back an empty response with TC (truncated) bit set.
This reverts commit 66eefac78c.
When the fragmentation is disabled on UDP sockets, the uv_udp_send()
call can fail with UV_EMSGSIZE for messages larger than path MTU.
Previously, this error would end with just discarding the response. In
this commit, a proper handling of such case is added and on such error,
a new DNS response with truncated bit set is generated and sent to the
client.
This change allows us to disable the fragmentation on the UDP
sockets again.
Previously, each protocol (TCPDNS, TLSDNS) has specified own function to
disable pipelining on the connection. An oversight would lead to
assertion failure when opcode is not query over non-TCPDNS protocol
because the isc_nm_tcpdns_sequential() function would be called over
non-TCPDNS socket. This commit removes the per-protocol functions and
refactors the code to have and use common isc_nm_sequential() function
that would either disable the pipelining on the socket or would handle
the request in per specific manner. Currently it ignores the call for
HTTP sockets and causes assertion failure for protocols where it doesn't
make sense to call the function at all.
The requirements for BIND 9.17+ now requires C11 support from the
compiler, so we can safely drop most of the stdatomic.h shims from
lib/isc/unix/include/stdatomic.h.
This commit removes support for clang atomic builtins (clang >= 3.6.0
includes stdatomic.h header) and for Gcc __sync builtins.
The only compatibility shim that remains is support for __atomic
builtins for Gcc >= 4.7.0 since CentOS 7 still includes only Gcc 4.8.1
and the proper stdatomic.h header was only introduced in Gcc >= 4.9.
The warning was produced by an ASAN build:
runtime error: null pointer passed as argument 2, which is declared to
never be null
This commit fixes it by checking if nghttp2_session_mem_send() has
actually returned anything.
This change sets the mentioned fields properly and gets rid of klusges
added in the times when we were keeping pointers to isc_sockaddr_t
instead of copies. Among other things it helps to avoid a situation
when garbage instead of an address appears in dig output.
We cannot use DoH for zone transfers. According to RFC8484 a DoH
request contains exactly one DNS message (see Section 6: Definition of
the "application/dns-message" Media Type,
https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc8484#section-6). This makes
DoH unsuitable for zone transfers as often (and usually!) these need
more than one DNS message, especially for larger zones.
As zone transfers over DoH are not (yet) standardised, nor discussed
in RFC8484, the best thing we can do is to return "not implemented."
Technically DoH can be used to transfer small zones which fit in one
message, but that is not enough for the generic case.
Also, this commit makes the server-side DoH code ensure that no
multiple responses could be attempted to be sent over one HTTP/2
stream. In HTTP/2 one stream is mapped to one request/response
transaction. Now the write callback will be called with failure error
code in such a case.
Support a situation in header processing callback when client side
code could receive a belated response or part of it. That could
happen when the HTTP/2 session was already closed, but there were some
response data from server in flight. Other client-side nghttp2
callbacks code already handled this case.
The bug became apparent after HTTP/2 write buffering was supported,
leading to rare unit test failures.
This commit ensures that sock->h2.connect.cstream gets nullified when
the object in question is deleted. This fixes a nasty crash in dig
exposed when receiving large responses leading to double free()ing.
Also, it refactors how the client-side code keeps track of client
streams (hopefully) preventing from similar errors appearing in the
future.
This commit makes NM code to report HTTP as a stream protocol. This
makes it possible to handle large responses properly. Like:
dig +https @127.0.0.1 A cmts1-dhcp.longlines.com
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.
While cleaning up the usage of HAVE_UV_<func> macros, we forgot to
cleanup the HAVE_UV_UDP_CONNECT in the actual code and
HAVE_UV_TRANSLATE_SYS_ERROR and this was causing Windows build to fail
on uv_udp_send() because the socket was already connected and we were
falsely assuming that it was not.
The platforms with autoconf support were not affected, because we were
still checking for the functions from the configure.
This commit adds the ability to consolidate HTTP/2 write requests if
there is already one in flight. If it is the case, the code will
consolidate multiple subsequent write request into a larger one
allowing to utilise the network in a more efficient way by creating
larger TCP packets as well as by reducing TLS records overhead (by
creating large TLS records instead of multiple small ones).
This optimisation is especially efficient for clients, creating many
concurrent HTTP/2 streams over a transport connection at once. This
way, the code might create a small amount of multi-kilobyte requests
instead of many 50-120 byte ones.
In fact, it turned out to work so well that I had to add a work-around
to the code to ensure compatibility with the flamethrower, which, at
the time of writing, does not support TLS records larger than two
kilobytes. Now the code tries to flush the write buffer after 1.5
kilobyte, which is still pretty adequate for our use case.
Essentially, this commit implements a recommendation given by nghttp2
library:
https://nghttp2.org/documentation/nghttp2_session_mem_send.html
The libuv has a support for running long running tasks in the dedicated
threadpools, so it doesn't affect networking IO.
This commit adds isc_nm_work_enqueue() wrapper that would wraps around
the libuv API and runs it on top of associated worker loop.
The only limitation is that the function must be called from inside
network manager thread, so the call to the function should be wrapped
inside a (bound) task.
Instead of having a configure check for every missing function that has
been added in later version of libuv, we now use UV_VERSION_HEX to
decide whether we need the shim or not.
The uv_req_get_data() and uv_req_set_data() functions were introduced in
libuv >= 1.19.0, so we need to add compatibility shims with older libuv
versions.
On some platforms, the __attribute__ constructor and destructor won't
take priorities and the compilation failed. On such platform would be
macOS. For this reason, the constructor/destructor in the libisc was
reworked to not use priorities, but have a single constructor and
destructor that calls the appropriate routines in correct order.
This commit removes the extra priority because it's now not needed and
it also breaks a compilation on macOS with GCC 10.
configuring with --enable-mutex-atomics flagged these incorrectly
initialised variables on systems where pthread_mutex_init doesn't
just zero out the structure.
The isc_nmiface_t type was holding just a single isc_sockaddr_t,
so we got rid of the datatype and use plain isc_sockaddr_t in place
where isc_nmiface_t was used before. This means less type-casting and
shorter path to access isc_sockaddr_t members.
At the same time, instead of keeping the reference to the isc_sockaddr_t
that was passed to us when we start listening, we will keep a local
copy. This prevents the data race on destruction of the ns_interface_t
objects where pending nmsockets could reference the sockaddr of already
destroyed ns_interface_t object.
Previously, as a way of reducing the contention between threads a
clientmgr object would be created for each interface/IP address.
We tasks being more strictly bound to netmgr workers, this is no longer
needed and we can just create clientmgr object per worker queue (ncpus).
Each clientmgr object than would have a single task and single memory
context.
Since a client object is bound to a netmgr handle, each client
will always be processed by the same netmgr worker, so we can
simplify the code by binding client->task to the same thread as
the client. Since ns__client_request() now runs in the same event
loop as client->task events, is no longer necessary to pause the
task manager before launching them.
Also removed some functions in isc_task that were not used.
Instead of using fixed quantum, this commit adds atomic counter for
number of items on each queue and uses the number of netievents
scheduled to run as the limit of maximum number of netievents for a
single process_queue() run.
This prevents the endless loops when the netievent would schedule more
netievents onto the same loop, but we don't have to pick "magic" number
for the quantum.
This commit adds a new configuration option to set the receive and send
buffer sizes on the TCP and UDP netmgr sockets. The default is `0`
which doesn't set any value and just uses the value set by the operating
system.
There's no magic value here - set it too small and the performance will
drop, set it too large, the buffers can fill-up with queries that have
already timeouted on the client side and nobody is interested for the
answer and this would just make the server clog up even more by making
it produce useless work.
The `netstat -su` can be used on POSIX systems to monitor the receive
and send buffer errors.
The outgoing UDP socket selection would pick unintialized children
socket on Windows, because we have more netmgr workers than we have
listening sockets. This commit fixes the selection by keeping the
outgoing socket the same, so it's always run on existing socket.
The initial intent was to limit the number of concurrent streams by
the value of 100 but due to the error when reading the documentation
it was set to the maximum possible number of streams per session.
This could lead to security issues, e.g. a remote attacker could have
taken down the BIND instance by creating lots of sessions via low
number of transport connections. This commit fixes that.
We should not call nghttp2_session_terminate_session() in server-side
code after all of the active HTTP/2 streams are processed. The
underlying transport connection is expected to remain opened at least
for some time in this case for new HTTP/2 requests to arrive. That is
what flamethrower was expecting and it makes perfect sense from the
HTTP/2 perspective.
During the stress testing, it was discovered that the default netmgr
quantum of 128 is not enough and there was a performance drop for TCP on
FreeBSD. Bumping the default quantum to 1024 solves the performance
issue and is still enough to prevent the endless loops.
We were clearing the pointer to taskmgr as soon as isc_taskmgr_destroy()
would be called and before all tasks were finished. Unfortunately, some
tasks would use global named_g_taskmgr objects from inside the events
and this would cause either a data race or NULL pointer dereference.
This commit fixes the data race by moving the destruction of the
referenced pointer to the time after all tasks are finished.
Network manager events that require interlock (pause, resume, listen)
are now always executed in the same worker thread, mgr->workers[0],
to prevent races.
"stoplistening" events no longer require interlock.
- ensure isc_nm_pause() and isc_nm_resume() work the same whether
run from inside or outside of the netmgr.
- promote 'stop' events to the priority event level so they can
run while the netmgr is pausing or paused.
- when pausing, drain the priority queue before acquiring an
interlock; this prevents a deadlock when another thread is waiting
for us to complete a task.
- release interlock after pausing, reacquire it when resuming, so
that stop events can happen.
some incidental changes:
- use a function to enqueue pause and resume events (this was part of a
different change attempt that didn't work out; I kept it because I
thought was more readable).
- make mgr->nworkers a signed int to remove some annoying integer casts.
The netmgr listening, stoplistening, pausing and resuming functions
now use barriers for synchronization, which makes the code much simpler.
isc/barrier.h defines isc_barrier macros as a front-end for uv_barrier
on platforms where that works, and pthread_barrier where it doesn't
(including TSAN builds).
When isc__nm_http_stoplistening() is run from inside the netmgr, we need
to make sure it's run synchronously. This commit is just a band-aid
though, as the desired behvaior for isc_nm_stoplistening() is not always
the same:
1. When run from outside user of the interface, the call must be
synchronous, e.g. the calling code expects the call to really stop
listening on the interfaces.
2. But if there's a call from listen<proto> when listening fails,
that needs to be scheduled to run asynchronously, because
isc_nm_listen<proto> is being run in a paused (interlocked)
netmgr thread and we could get stuck.
The proper solution would be to make isc_nm_stoplistening()
behave like uv_close(), i.e., to have a proper callback.
all zone loading tasks have the privileged flag, but we only want
them to run as privileged tasks when the server is being initialized;
if we privilege them the rest of the time, the server may hang for a
long time after a reload/reconfig. so now we call isc_taskmgr_setmode()
to turn privileged execution mode on or off in the task manager.
isc_task_privileged() returns true if the task's privilege flag is
set *and* the taskmgr is in privileged execution mode. this is used
to determine in which netmgr event queue the task should be run.
There was a theoretical possibility of clogging up the queue processing
with an endless loop where currently processing netievent would schedule
new netievent that would get processed immediately. This wasn't such a
problem when only netmgr netievents were processed, but with the
addition of the tasks, there are at least two situation where this could
happen:
1. In lib/dns/zone.c:setnsec3param() the task would get re-enqueued
when the zone was not yet fully loaded.
2. Tasks have internal quantum for maximum number of isc_events to be
processed, when the task quantum is reached, the task would get
rescheduled and then immediately processed by the netmgr queue
processing.
As the isc_queue doesn't have a mechanism to atomically move the queue,
this commit adds a mechanism to quantize the queue, so enqueueing new
netievents will never stop processing other uv_loop_t events.
The default quantum size is 128.
Since the queue used in the network manager allows items to be enqueued
more than once, tasks are now reference-counted around task_ready()
and task_run(). task_ready() now has a public API wrapper,
isc_task_ready(), that the netmgr can use to reschedule processing
of a task if the quantum has been reached.
Incidental changes: Cleaned up some unused fields left in isc_task_t
and isc_taskmgr_t after the last refactoring, and changed atomic
flags to atomic_bools for easier manipulation.
With taskmgr running on top of netmgr, the ordering of how the tasks and
netmgr shutdown interacts was wrong as previously isc_taskmgr_destroy()
was waiting until all tasks were properly shutdown and detached. This
responsibility was moved to netmgr, so we now need to do the following:
1. shutdown all the tasks - this schedules all shutdown events onto
the netmgr queue
2. shutdown the netmgr - this also makes sure all the tasks and
events are properly executed
3. Shutdown the taskmgr - this now waits for all the tasks to finish
running before returning
4. Shutdown the netmgr - this call waits for all the netmgr netievents
to finish before returning
This solves the race when the taskmgr object would be destroyed before
all the tasks were finished running in the netmgr loops.
Previously, netmgr, taskmgr, timermgr and socketmgr all had their own
isc_<*>mgr_create() and isc_<*>mgr_destroy() functions. The new
isc_managers_create() and isc_managers_destroy() fold all four into a
single function and makes sure the objects are created and destroy in
correct order.
Especially now, when taskmgr runs on top of netmgr, the correct order is
important and when the code was duplicated at many places it's easy to
make mistake.
The former isc_<*>mgr_create() and isc_<*>mgr_destroy() functions were
made private and a single call to isc_managers_create() and
isc_managers_destroy() is required at the program startup / shutdown.
Under some circumstances a situation might occur when server-side
session gets finished while there are still active HTTP/2
streams. This would lead to isc_nm_httpsocket object leaks.
This commit fixes this behaviour as well as refactors failed_read_cb()
to allow better code reuse.
This commit fixes a situation when a cstream object could get unlinked
from the list as a result of a cstream->read_cb call. Thus, unlinking
it after the call could crash the program.
... the last handle has been detached after calling write
callback. That makes it possible to detach from the underlying socket
and not to keep the socket object alive for too long. This issue was
causing TLS tests with quota to fail because quota might not have been
detached on time (because it was still referenced by the underlying
TCP socket).
One could say that this commit is an ideological continuation of:
513cdb52ec.
This way we create less netievent objects, not bombarding NM with the
messages in case of numerous low-level errors (like too many open
files) in e.g. unit tests.
This change ensures that a TCP connect callback is called from within
the context of a worker thread in case of a low-level error when
descriptors cannot be created (e.g. when there are too many open file
descriptors).
When looking for key files, we could use isdigit rather than checking
if the character is within the range [0-9].
Use (unsigned char) cast to ensure the value is representable in the
unsigned char type (as suggested by the isdigit manpage).
Change " & 0xff" occurrences to the recommended (unsigned char) type
cast.
This commit adds support for generating backtraces on Windows and
refactors the isc_backtrace API to match the Linux/BSD API (without
the isc_ prefix)
* isc_backtrace_gettrace() was renamed to isc_backtrace(), the third
argument was removed and the return type was changed to int
* isc_backtrace_symbols() was added
* isc_backtrace_symbols_fd() was added and used as appropriate
On Windows, the iocompletionport_createthreads() didn't use
isc_thread_create() to create new threads for processing IO, but just a
simple CreateThread() function that completely circumvent the
isc_trampoline mechanism to initialize global isc_tid_v. This lead to
segmentation fault in isc_hp API because '-1' isn't valid index to the
hazard pointer array.
This commit changes the iocompletionport_createthreads() to use
isc_thread_create() instead of CreateThread() to properly initialize
isc_tid_v.
The malloc attribute allows compiler to do some optmizations on
functions that behave like malloc/calloc, like assuming that the
returned pointer do not alias other pointers.
There is no possibility for mpctx->items to be NULL at the point where
the code was removed, since we enforce that fillcount > 0, if
mpctx->items == NULL when isc_mempool_get is called, then we will
allocate fillcount more items and add to the mpctx->items list.
as with TLS, the destruction of a client stream on failed read
needs to be conditional: if we reached failed_read_cb() as a
result of a timeout on a timer which has subsequently been
reset, the stream must not be closed.
the destruction of the socket in tls_failed_read_cb() needs to be
conditional; if reached due to a timeout on a timer that has
subsequently been reset, the socket must not be destroyed.
this is similar in structure to the UDP timeout recovery test.
this commit adds a new mechanism to the netmgr test allowing the
listen socket to accept incoming TCP connections but never send
a response. this forces the client to time out on read.
when running read callbacks, if the event result is not ISC_R_SUCCESS,
the callback is always run asynchronously. this is a problem on timeout,
because there's no chance to reset the timer before the socket has
already been destroyed. this commit allows read callbacks to run
synchronously for both ISC_R_SUCCESS and ISC_R_TIMEDOUT result codes.
this test sets up a server socket that listens for UDP connections
but never responds. the client will always time out; it should retry
five times before giving up.
This commit changes the taskmgr to run the individual tasks on the
netmgr internal workers. While an effort has been put into keeping the
taskmgr interface intact, couple of changes have been made:
* The taskmgr has no concept of universal privileged mode - rather the
tasks are either privileged or unprivileged (normal). The privileged
tasks are run as a first thing when the netmgr is unpaused. There
are now four different queues in in the netmgr:
1. priority queue - netievent on the priority queue are run even when
the taskmgr enter exclusive mode and netmgr is paused. This is
needed to properly start listening on the interfaces, free
resources and resume.
2. privileged task queue - only privileged tasks are queued here and
this is the first queue that gets processed when network manager
is unpaused using isc_nm_resume(). All netmgr workers need to
clean the privileged task queue before they all proceed normal
operation. Both task queues are processed when the workers are
finished.
3. task queue - only (traditional) task are scheduled here and this
queue along with privileged task queues are process when the
netmgr workers are finishing. This is needed to process the task
shutdown events.
4. normal queue - this is the queue with netmgr events, e.g. reading,
sending, callbacks and pretty much everything is processed here.
* The isc_taskmgr_create() now requires initialized netmgr (isc_nm_t)
object.
* The isc_nm_destroy() function now waits for indefinite time, but it
will print out the active objects when in tracing mode
(-DNETMGR_TRACE=1 and -DNETMGR_TRACE_VERBOSE=1), the netmgr has been
made a little bit more asynchronous and it might take longer time to
shutdown all the active networking connections.
* Previously, the isc_nm_stoplistening() was a synchronous operation.
This has been changed and the isc_nm_stoplistening() just schedules
the child sockets to stop listening and exits. This was needed to
prevent a deadlock as the the (traditional) tasks are now executed on
the netmgr threads.
* The socket selection logic in isc__nm_udp_send() was flawed, but
fortunatelly, it was broken, so we never hit the problem where we
created uvreq_t on a socket from nmhandle_t, but then a different
socket could be picked up and then we were trying to run the send
callback on a socket that had different threadid than currently
running.
Since all the libraries are internal now, just cleanup the ISCAPI remnants
in isc_socket, isc_task and isc_timer APIs. This means, there's one less
layer as following changes have been done:
* struct isc_socket and struct isc_socketmgr have been removed
* struct isc__socket and struct isc__socketmgr have been renamed
to struct isc_socket and struct isc_socketmgr
* struct isc_task and struct isc_taskmgr have been removed
* struct isc__task and struct isc__taskmgr have been renamed
to struct isc_task and struct isc_taskmgr
* struct isc_timer and struct isc_timermgr have been removed
* struct isc__timer and struct isc__timermgr have been renamed
to struct isc_timer and struct isc_timermgr
* All the associated code that dealt with typing isc_<foo>
to isc__<foo> and back has been removed.
Previously, the taskmgr, timermgr and socketmgr had a constructor
variant, that would create the mgr on top of existing appctx. This was
no longer true and isc_<*>mgr was just calling isc_<*>mgr_create()
directly without any extra code.
This commit just cleans up the extra function.
It fixes a corner case which was causing dig to print annoying
messages like:
14-Apr-2021 18:48:37.099 SSL error in BIO: 1 TLS error (errno:
0). Arguments: received_data: (nil), send_data: (nil), finish: false
even when all the data was properly processed.
Before this fix underlying TCP sockets could remain opened for longer
than it is actually required, causing unit tests to fail with lots of
ISC_R_TOOMANYOPENFILES errors.
The change also enables graceful SSL shutdown (before that it would
happen only in the case when isc_nm_cancelread() were called).
This commit merges TLS tests into the common Network Manager unit
tests suite and extends the unit test framework to include support for
additional "ping-pong" style tests where all data could be sent via
lesser number of connections (the behaviour of the old test
suite). The tests for TCP and TLS were extended to make use of the new
mode, as this mode better translates to how the code is used in DoH.
Both TLS and TCP tests now share most of the unit tests' code, as they
are expected to function similarly from a users's perspective anyway.
Additionally to the above, the TLS test suite was extended to include
TLS tests using the connections quota facility.
The isc_nm_tlsdnsconnect() call could end up with two connect callbacks
called when the timeout fired and the TCP connection was aborted,
but the TLS handshake was not complete yet. isc__nm_connecttimeout_cb()
forgot to clean up sock->tls.pending_req when the connect callback was
called with ISC_R_TIMEDOUT, leading to a second callback running later.
A new argument has been added to the isc__nm_*_failed_connect_cb and
isc__nm_*_failed_read_cb functions, to indicate whether the callback
needs to run asynchronously or not.
We already skip most of the recv_send tests in CI because they are
too timing-related to be run in overloaded environment. This commit
adds a similar change to tls_test before we merge tls_test into
netmgr_test.
if a test failed at the beginning of nm_teardown(), the function
would abort before isc_nm_destroy() or isc_tlsctx_free() were reached;
we would then abort when nm_setup() was run for the next test case.
rearranging the teardown function prevents this problem.
The isc_nm_*connect() functions were refactored to always return the
connection status via the connect callback instead of sometimes returning
the hard failure directly (for example, when the socket could not be
created, or when the network manager was shutting down).
This commit changes the connect functions in all the network manager
modules, and also makes the necessary refactoring changes in places
where the connect functions are called.
dig previously ran isc_nm_udpconnect() three times before giving
up, to work around a freebsd bug that caused connect() to return
a spurious transient EADDRINUSE. this commit moves the retry code
into the network manager itself, so that isc_nm_udpconnect() no
longer needs to return a result code.
The TCP module has been updated to use the generic functions from
netmgr.c instead of its own local copies. This brings the module
mostly up to par with the TCPDNS and TLSDNS modules.
Serveral problems were discovered and fixed after the change in
the connection timeout in the previous commits:
* In TLSDNS, the connection callback was not called at all under some
circumstances when the TCP connection had been established, but the
TLS handshake hadn't been completed yet. Additional checks have
been put in place so that tls_cycle() will end early when the
nmsocket is invalidated by the isc__nm_tlsdns_shutdown() call.
* In TCP, TCPDNS and TLSDNS, new connections would be established
even when the network manager was shutting down. The new
call isc__nm_closing() has been added and is used to bail out
early even before uv_tcp_connect() is attempted.
Similarly to the read timeout, it's now possible to recover from
ISC_R_TIMEDOUT event by restarting the timer from the connect callback.
The change here also fixes platforms that missing the socket() options
to set the TCP connection timeout, by moving the timeout code into user
space. On platforms that support setting the connect timeout via a
socket option, the timeout has been hardcoded to 2 minutes (the maximum
value of tcp-initial-timeout).
Previously, when the client timed out on read, the client socket would
be automatically closed and destroyed when the nmhandle was detached.
This commit changes the logic so that it's possible for the callback to
recover from the ISC_R_TIMEDOUT event by restarting the timer. This is
done by calling isc_nmhandle_settimeout(), which prevents the timeout
handling code from destroying the socket; instead, it continues to wait
for data.
One specific use case for multiple timeouts is serve-stale - the client
socket could be created with shorter timeout (as specified with
stale-answer-client-timeout), so we can serve the requestor with stale
answer, but keep the original query running for a longer time.
The full netmgr test suite is unstable when run in CI due to various
timing issues. Previously, we enabled the full test suite only when
CI_ENABLE_ALL_TESTS environment variable was set, but that went against
original intent of running the full suite when an individual developer
would run it locally.
This change disables the full test suite only when running in the CI and
the CI_ENABLE_ALL_TESTS is not set.
See "BUGS" section at:
https://www.openssl.org/docs/man1.1.1/man3/SSL_get_error.html
It is mentioned there that when TLS status equals SSL_ERROR_SYSCALL
AND errno == 0 it means that underlying transport layer returned EOF
prematurely. However, we are managing the transport ourselves, so we
should just resume reading from the TCP socket.
It seems that this case has been handled properly on modern versions
of OpenSSL. That being said, the situation goes in line with the
manual: it is briefly mentioned there that SSL_ERROR_SYSCALL might be
returned not only in a case of low-level errors (like system call
failures).
This commit fixes crash in dig when it encounters non-expected header
value. The bug was introduced at some point late in the last DoH
development cycle. Also, refactors the relevant code a little bit to
ensure better incoming data validation for client-side DoH
connections.
util.h requires ISC_CONSTRUCTOR definition, which depends on config.h
inclusion. It does not include it from isc/util.h (or any other header).
Using isc/util.h fails hard when isc/util.h is used without including
bind's config.h.
Move the check to c file, where ISC_CONSTRUCTOR is used. Ensure config.h
is included there.
The current isc_time_now uses CLOCK_REALTIME_COARSE which only updates
on a timer tick. This clock is generally fine for millisecond accuracy,
but on servers with 100hz clocks, this clock is nowhere near accurate
enough for microsecond accuracy.
This commit adds a new isc_time_now_hires function that uses
CLOCK_REALTIME, which gives the current time, though it is somewhat
expensive to call. When microsecond accuracy is required, it may be
required to use extra resources for higher accuracy.
When NETMGR_TRACE(_VERBOSE) is enabled, the build would fail on some
non-Linux non-glibc platforms because:
* Use <stdint.h> print macros because uint_fast32_t is not always
unsigned long
* The header <execinfo.h> is not available on non-glibc, thus commit
adds dummy backtrace() and backtrace_symbols_fd() functions for
platforms without HAVE_BACKTRACE
The netmgr unit tests were designed to push the system limits to maximum
by sending as many queries as possible in the busy loop from multiple
threads. This mostly works with UDP, but in the stateful protocol where
establishing the connection takes more time, it failed quite often in
the CI. On FreeBSD, this happened more often, because the socket() call
would fail spuriosly making the problem even worse.
This commit does several things to improve reliability:
* return value of isc_nm_<proto>connect() is always checked and retried
when scheduling the connection fails
* The busy while loop has been slowed down with usleep(1000); so the
netmgr threads could schedule the work and get executed.
* The isc_thread_yield() was replaced with usleep(1000); also to allow
the other threads to do any work.
* Instead of waiting on just one variable, we wait for multiple
variables to reach the final value
* We are wrapping the netmgr operations (connects, reads, writes,
accepts) with reference counting and waiting for all the callbacks to
be accounted for.
This has two effects:
a) the isc_nm_t is always clean of active sockets and handles when
destroyed, so it will prevent the spurious INSIST(references == 1)
from isc_nm_destroy()
b) the unit test now ensures that all the callbacks are always called
when they should be called, so any stuck test means that there was
a missing callback call and it is always a real bug
These changes allows us to remove the workaround that would not run
certain tests on systems without port load-balancing.
In tls_error(), we now call isc__nm_tlsdns_failed_read() instead of just
stopping timer and reading from the socket. This allows us to properly
cleanup any pending operation on the socket.
When shutting down, calling the isc__nm_failed_connect_cb() was delayed
until the connect callback would be called. It turned out that the
connect callback might not get called at all when the socket is being
shut down. Call the failed_connect_cb() directly in the
tlsdns_shutdown() instead of waiting for the connect callback to call it.
After a partial write the tls.senddata buffer would be rearranged to
contain only the data tha wasn't sent and the len part would be made
shorter, which would lead to attempt to free only part of a socket's
tls.senddata buffer.
The tlsdns_cycle() might call uv_write() to write data to the socket,
when this happens and the socket is shutdown before the callback
completes, the uvreq structure was not freed because the callback would
be called with non-zero status code.
The RFC7828 specifies the keepalive interval to be 16-bit, specified in
units of 100 milliseconds and the configuration options tcp-*-timeouts
are following the suit. The units of 100 milliseconds are very
unintuitive and while we can't change the configuration and presentation
format, we should not follow this weird unit in the API.
This commit changes the isc_nm_(get|set)timeouts() functions to work
with milliseconds and convert the values to milliseconds before passing
them to the function, not just internally.
The udp, tcpdns and tlsdns contained lot of cut&paste code or code that
was very similar making the stack harder to maintain as any change to
one would have to be copied to the the other protocols.
In this commit, we merge the common parts into the common functions
under isc__nm_<foo> namespace and just keep the little differences based
on the socket type.
After the TCPDNS refactoring the initial and idle timers were broken and
only the tcp-initial-timeout was always applied on the whole TCP
connection.
This broke any TCP connection that took longer than tcp-initial-timeout,
most often this would affect large zone AXFRs.
This commit changes the timeout logic in this way:
* On TCP connection accept the tcp-initial-timeout is applied
and the timer is started
* When we are processing and/or sending any DNS message the timer is
stopped
* When we stop processing all DNS messages, the tcp-idle-timeout
is applied and the timer is started again
This commit fixes loading the certificate chain files so that the full
chain could be sent to the clients which require that for
verification. Before that fix only the top most certificate would be
loaded from the chain and sent to clients preventing some of them to
perform certificate validation (e.g. Windows 10 DoH client).
It is advisable to disable Nagle's algorithm for HTTP/2 connections
because multiple HTTP/2 streams could be multiplexed over one
transport connection. Thus, delays when delivering small packets could
bring down performance for the whole session. HTTP/2 is meant to be
used this way.
when called from within the context of a network thread,
isc_nm_tlsconnect() hangs. it is waiting for the socket's
result code to be updated, but that update is supposed to happen
asynchronously in the network thread, and if we're already blocking
in the network thread, it can never occur.
we can kluge around this by setting the socket result code
early; this works for most clients (including "dig"), but it causes
inconsistent behaviors that manifest as test failures in the DoH unit
test.
so we kluged around it even more by setting the socket result code
early *only when running in the network thread*. we need a better
solution for this problem, but this will do for now.
This commit makes the server-side code polite.
It fixes the error handling code on the server side and fixes
returning error code in responses (there was a nasty bug which could
potentially crash the server).
Also, in this commit we limit max size POST request data to 96K, max
processed data size in headers to 128K (should be enough to handle any
GET requests).
If these limits are surpassed, server will terminate the request with
RST_STREAM without responding with error code. Otherwise it politely
responds with error code.
This commit also limits number of concurrent HTTP/2 streams per
transport connection on server to 100 (as nghttp2 advises by default).
Ideally, these parameters should be configurable both globally and per
every HTTP endpoint description in the configuration file, but for now
putting sane limits should be enough.
- style, cleanup, and removal of unnecessary code.
- combined isc_nm_http_add_endpoint() and isc_nm_http_add_doh_endpoint()
into one function, renamed isc_http_endpoint().
- moved isc_nm_http_connect_send_request() into doh_test.c as a helper
function; remove it from the public API.
- renamed isc_http2 and isc_nm_http2 types and functions to just isc_http
and isc_nm_http, for consistency with other existing names.
- shortened a number of long names.
- the caller is now responsible for determining the peer address.
in isc_nm_httpconnect(); this eliminates the need to parse the URI
and the dependency on an external resolver.
- the caller is also now responsible for creating the SSL client context,
for consistency with isc_nm_tlsdnsconnect().
- added setter functions for HTTP/2 ALPN. instead of setting up ALPN in
isc_tlsctx_createclient(), we now have a function
isc_tlsctx_enable_http2client_alpn() that can be run from
isc_nm_httpconnect().
- refactored isc_nm_httprequest() into separate read and send functions.
isc_nm_send() or isc_nm_read() is called on an http socket, it will
be stored until a corresponding isc_nm_read() or _send() arrives; when
we have both halves of the pair the HTTP request will be initiated.
- isc_nm_httprequest() is renamed isc__nm_http_request() for use as an
internal helper function by the DoH unit test. (eventually doh_test
should be rewritten to use read and send, and this function should
be removed.)
- added implementations of isc__nm_tls_settimeout() and
isc__nm_http_settimeout().
- increased NGHTTP2 header block length for client connections to 128K.
- use isc_mem_t for internal memory allocations inside nghttp2, to
help track memory leaks.
- send "Cache-Control" header in requests and responses. (note:
currently we try to bypass HTTP caching proxies, but ideally we should
interact with them: https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc8484#section-5.1)
Simple typecast to size_t should be enough to silence the warning on
ARMv7, even though the code is in fact correct, because the readlen is
checked for being < 0 in the block before the warning.
Call the libisc isc__initialize() constructor and isc__shutdown()
destructor from DllMain instead of having duplicate code between
those and DllMain() code.
When AddressSanitizer is in use, disable the internal mempool
implementation and redirect the isc_mempool_get to isc_mem_get
(and similarly for isc_mempool_put). This is the method recommended
by the AddressSanitizer authors for tracking allocations and
deallocations instead of custom poison/unpoison code (see
https://github.com/google/sanitizers/wiki/AddressSanitizerManualPoisoning).
The pthread_self(), thrd_current() or GetCurrentThreadId() could
actually be a pointer, so we should rather convert the value into
uintptr_t instead of unsigned long.
Convert the isc_hp API to use the globally available isc_tid_v instead
of locally defined tid_v. This should solve most of the problems on
machines with many number of cores / CPUs.
The current isc_hp API uses internal tid_v variable that gets
incremented for each new thread using hazard pointers. This tid_v
variable is then used as a index to global shared table with hazard
pointers state. Since the tid_v is only incremented and never
decremented the table could overflow very quickly if we create set of
threads for short period of time, they finish the work and cease to
exist. Then we create identical set of threads and so on and so on.
This is not a problem for a normal `named` operation as the set of
threads is stable, but the problematic place are the unit tests where we
test network manager or other APIs (task, timer) that create threads.
This commits adds a thin wrapper around any function called from
isc_thread_create() that adds unique-but-reusable small digit thread id
that can be used as index to f.e. hazard pointer tables. The trampoline
wrapper ensures that the thread ids will be reused, so the highest
thread_id number doesn't grow indefinitely when threads are created and
destroyed and then created again. This fixes the hazard pointer table
overflow on machines with many cores. [GL #2396]
The BIND 9 libraries on Windows define DllMain() optional entry point
into a dynamic-link library (DLL). When the system starts or terminates
a process or thread, it calls the entry-point function for each loaded
DLL using the first thread of the process.
When the DLL is being loaded into the virtual address space of the
current process as a result of the process starting up, we make a call
to DisableThreadLibraryCalls() which should disable the
DLL_THREAD_ATTACH and DLL_THREAD_DETACH notifications for the specified
dynamic-link library (DLL).
This seems not be the case because we never check the return value of
the DisableThreadLibraryCalls() call, and it could in fact fail. The
DisableThreadLibraryCalls() function fails if the DLL specified by
hModule has active static thread local storage, or if hModule is an
invalid module handle.
In this commit, we remove the safe-guard assertion put in place for the
DLL_THREAD_ATTACH and DLL_THREAD_DETACH events and we just ignore them.
BIND 9 doesn't create/destroy enough threads for it actually to make any
difference, and in fact we do use static thread local storage in the
code.
The addition of lib/isc/tls_p.h to the source tree was not accounted for
in the relevant variable in lib/isc/Makefile.am and thus the former file
is not being included in release tarballs prepared using "make dist".
Fix by tweaking the libisc_la_SOURCES list in lib/isc/Makefile.am
accordingly.
Instead of calling isc_tls_initialize()/isc_tls_destroy() explicitly use
gcc/clang attributes on POSIX and DLLMain on Windows to initialize and
shutdown OpenSSL library.
This resolves the issue when isc_nm_create() / isc_nm_destroy() was
called multiple times and it would call OpenSSL library destructors from
isc_nm_destroy().
At the same time, since we now have introduced the ctor/dtor for libisc,
this commit moves the isc_mem API initialization (the list of the
contexts) and changes the isc_mem_checkdestroyed() to schedule the
checking of memory context on library unload instead of executing the
code immediately.
Disables the DLL_THREAD_ATTACH and DLL_THREAD_DETACH notifications for
the specified dynamic-link library (DLL). This can reduce the size of
the working set for some applications.
Although harmless, the memmove() in tlsdns and tcpdns was guarded by a
current message length variable that was always bigger than 0 instead of
correct current buffer length remainder variable.
Since we now require both libcrypto and libssl to be initialized for
netmgr, we move all the OpenSSL initialization code except the engine
initialization to isc_tls API.
The isc_tls_initialize() and isc_tls_destroy() has been made idempotent,
so they could be called multiple time. However when isc_tls_destroy()
has been called, the isc_tls_initialize() could not be called again.
The ISC_MEM_CHECKOVERRUN would add canary byte at the end of every
allocations and check whether the canary byte hasn't been changed at the
free time. The AddressSanitizer and valgrind memory checks surpases
simple checks like this, so there's no need to actually keep the code
inside the allocator.
Previously, the mem_{get,put} benchmark would pass the allocation size
as thread_create argument. This has been now changed, so the allocation
size is stored and decremented (divided) in atomic variable and the
thread create routing is given a memory context. This will allow to
write tests where each thread is given different memory context and do
the same for mempool benchmarking.
The two memory debugging features: ISC_MEM_DEFAULTFILL
(ISC_MEMFLAG_FILL) and ISC_MEM_TRACKLINES were always enabled in all
builds and the former was only disabled in `named`.
This commits disables those two features in non-developer build to make
the memory allocator significantly faster.
This is yet another step into unlocking some parts of the memory
contexts. All the regularly updated variables has been turned into
atomic types, so we can later remove the locks when updating various
counters.
Also unlock as much code as possible without breaking anything.
On 24-core machine, the tests would crash because we would run out of
the hazard pointers. We now adjust the number of hazard pointers to be
in the <128,256> interval based on the number of available cores.
Note: This is just a band-aid and needs a proper fix.
Previously, the applications using libisc would be able to override the
internal memory methods with own implementation. This was no longer
possible, but the extra level of indirection was not removed. This
commit removes the extra level of indirection for the memory methods and
the default_memalloc() and default_memfree().
The internal memory allocator had an extra code to keep a list of blocks
for small size allocation. This would help to reduce the interactions
with the system malloc as the memory would be already allocated from the
system, but there's an extra cost associated with that - all the
allocations/deallocations must be locked, effectively eliminating any
optimizations in the system allocator targeted at multi-threaded
applications. While the isc_mem API is still using locks pretty heavily,
this is a first step into reducing the memory allocation/deallocation
contention.
In DNS Flag Day 2020, the development branch started setting the
IP_DONTFRAG option on the UDP sockets. It turned out, that this
code was incomplete leading to dropping the outgoing UDP packets.
Henceforth this commit rolls back this setting until we have a
proper fix that would send back empty response with TC flag set.
Commit fa505bfb0e omitted two unit tests
while introducing the SKIP_TEST_EXIT_CODE preprocessor macro. Fix the
outliers to make use of SKIP_TEST_EXIT_CODE consistent across all unit
tests. Also make sure lib/dns/tests/dnstap_test returns an exit code
that indicates a skipped test when dnstap is not enabled.
The <isc/readline.h> header provided a compatibility shim to use when
other non-GNU readline libraries are in use. The two places where
readline library is being used is nslookup and nsupdate, so the header
file has been moved to bin/dig directory and it's directly included from
bin/nsupdate.
This also conceals any readline headers exposed from the libisc headers.
This commit contains fixes to unit tests to make them work well on
various platforms (in particular ones shipping old versions of
OpenSSL) and for different configurations.
It also updates the generated manpage to include DoH configuration
options.
This commit completes the support for DNS-over-HTTP(S) built on top of
nghttp2 and plugs it into the BIND. Support for both GET and POST
requests is present, as required by RFC8484.
Both encrypted (via TLS) and unencrypted HTTP/2 connections are
supported. The latter are mostly there for debugging/troubleshooting
purposes and for the means of encryption offloading to third-party
software (as might be desirable in some environments to simplify TLS
certificates management).
This commit includes work-in-progress implementation of
DNS-over-HTTP(S).
Server-side code remains mostly untested, and there is only support
for POST requests.
This commit resurrects the old TLS code from
8f73c70d23.
It also includes numerous stability fixes and support for
isc_nm_cancelread() for the TLS layer.
The code was resurrected to be used for DoH.
The BIND 9 libraries are considered to be internal only and hence the
API and ABI changes a lot. Keeping track of the API/ABI changes takes
time and it's a complicated matter as the safest way to make everything
stable would be to bump any library in the dependency chain as in theory
if libns links with libdns, and a binary links with both, and we bump
the libdns SOVERSION, but not the libns SOVERSION, the old libns might
be loaded by binary pulling old libdns together with new libdns loaded
by the binary. The situation gets even more complicated with loading
the plugins that have been compiled with few versions old BIND 9
libraries and then dynamically loaded into the named.
We are picking the safest option possible and usable for internal
libraries - instead of using -version-info that has only a weak link to
BIND 9 version number, we are using -release libtool option that will
embed the corresponding BIND 9 version number into the library name.
That means that instead of libisc.so.1701 (as an example) the library
will now be named libisc-9.17.10.so.
* Following the example set in 634bdfb16d, the tlsdns netmgr
module now uses libuv and SSL primitives directly, rather than
opening a TLS socket which opens a TCP socket, as the previous
model was difficult to debug. Closes#2335.
* Remove the netmgr tls layer (we will have to re-add it for DoH)
* Add isc_tls API to wrap the OpenSSL SSL_CTX object into libisc
library; move the OpenSSL initialization/deinitialization from dstapi
needed for OpenSSL 1.0.x to the isc_tls_{initialize,destroy}()
* Add couple of new shims needed for OpenSSL 1.0.x
* When LibreSSL is used, require at least version 2.7.0 that
has the best OpenSSL 1.1.x compatibility and auto init/deinit
* Enforce OpenSSL 1.1.x usage on Windows
* Added a TLSDNS unit test and implemented a simple TLSDNS echo
server and client.
On Windows, we were limiting the number of listening children to just 1,
but we were then iterating on mgr->nworkers. That lead to scheduling
more async_*listen() than actually allocated and out-of-bound read-write
operation on the heap.
When we were in nmthread, the isc__nm_async_<proto>connect() function
executes in the same thread as the isc__nm_<proto>connect() and on a
failure, it would block indefinitely because the failure branch was
setting sock->active to false before the condition around the wait had a
chance to skip the WAIT().
This also fixes the zero system test being stuck on FreeBSD 11, so we
re-enable the test in the commit.
On FreeBSD, the option to configure connection timeout is called
TCP_KEEPINIT, use it to configure the connection timeout there.
This also fixes the dangling socket problems in the unit test, so
re-enable them.
On platforms without load-balancing socket all the queries would be
handle by a single thread. Currently, the support for load-balanced
sockets is present in Linux with SO_REUSEPORT and FreeBSD 12 with
SO_REUSEPORT_LB.
This commit adds workaround for such platforms that:
1. setups single shared listening socket for all listening nmthreads for
UDP, TCP and TCPDNS netmgr transports
2. Calls uv_udp_bind/uv_tcp_bind on the underlying socket just once and
for rest of the nmthreads only copy the internal libuv flags (should
be just UV_HANDLE_BOUND and optionally UV_HANDLE_IPV6).
3. start reading on UDP socket or listening on TCP socket
The load distribution among the nmthreads is uneven, but it's still
better than utilizing just one thread for processing all the incoming
queries
On FreeBSD, the stack is destroyed more aggressively than on Linux and
that revealed a bug where we were allocating the 16-bit len for the
TCPDNS message on the stack and the buffer got garbled before the
uv_write() sendback was executed. Now, the len is part of the uvreq, so
we can safely pass it to the uv_write() as the req gets destroyed after
the sendcb is executed.
On Windows, WSAStartup() needs to be called to initialize Winsock before
any sockets are created or else socket() calls will return error code
10093 (WSANOTINITIALISED). Since BIND's Network Manager is intended to
work as a reusable networking library, it should take care of calling
WSAStartup() - and its cleanup counterpart, WSACleanup() - itself rather
than relying on external code to do it. Add the necessary WSAStartup()
and WSACleanup() calls to isc_nm_start() and isc_nm_destroy(),
respectively.
uv_wrap.h is included in tcp_test.c and udp_test.c and therefore should
be listed in lib/isc/tests/Makefile.am, otherwise unit test run from
distribution tarball fails to compile:
tcp_test.c:37:10: fatal error: uv_wrap.h: No such file or directory
#include "uv_wrap.h"
^~~~~~~~~~~
udp_test.c:37:10: fatal error: uv_wrap.h: No such file or directory
#include "uv_wrap.h"
^~~~~~~~~~~
After turning the users callbacks to be asynchronous, there was a
visible performance drop. This commit prevents the unnecessary
allocations while keeping the code paths same for both asynchronous and
synchronous calls.
The same change was done to the isc__nm_udp_{read,send} as those two
functions are in the hot path.
The new netmgr tests are not-yet fine-tuned for non-Linux platforms.
Disable them now, so we can move forward and fix the tests of *BSD
in the next iteration.
This commit will get reverted when we add support for netmgr
multi-threading.
The isc/util.h header redefine the DbC checks (REQUIRE, INSIST, ...) to
be cmocka "fake" assertions. However that means that cmocka.h needs to
be included after UNIT_TESTING is defined but before isc/util.h is
included. Because isc/util.h is included in most of the project headers
this means that the sequence MUST be:
#define UNIT_TESTING
#include <cmocka.h>
#include <isc/_anything_.h>
See !2204 for other header requirements for including cmocka.h.
This is a part of the works that intends to make the netmgr stable,
testable, maintainable and tested. It contains a numerous changes to
the netmgr code and unfortunately, it was not possible to split this
into smaller chunks as the work here needs to be committed as a complete
works.
NOTE: There's a quite a lot of duplicated code between udp.c, tcp.c and
tcpdns.c and it should be a subject to refactoring in the future.
The changes that are included in this commit are listed here
(extensively, but not exclusively):
* The netmgr_test unit test was split into individual tests (udp_test,
tcp_test, tcpdns_test and newly added tcp_quota_test)
* The udp_test and tcp_test has been extended to allow programatic
failures from the libuv API. Unfortunately, we can't use cmocka
mock() and will_return(), so we emulate the behaviour with #define and
including the netmgr/{udp,tcp}.c source file directly.
* The netievents that we put on the nm queue have variable number of
members, out of these the isc_nmsocket_t and isc_nmhandle_t always
needs to be attached before enqueueing the netievent_<foo> and
detached after we have called the isc_nm_async_<foo> to ensure that
the socket (handle) doesn't disappear between scheduling the event and
actually executing the event.
* Cancelling the in-flight TCP connection using libuv requires to call
uv_close() on the original uv_tcp_t handle which just breaks too many
assumptions we have in the netmgr code. Instead of using uv_timer for
TCP connection timeouts, we use platform specific socket option.
* Fix the synchronization between {nm,async}_{listentcp,tcpconnect}
When isc_nm_listentcp() or isc_nm_tcpconnect() is called it was
waiting for socket to either end up with error (that path was fine) or
to be listening or connected using condition variable and mutex.
Several things could happen:
0. everything is ok
1. the waiting thread would miss the SIGNAL() - because the enqueued
event would be processed faster than we could start WAIT()ing.
In case the operation would end up with error, it would be ok, as
the error variable would be unchanged.
2. the waiting thread miss the sock->{connected,listening} = `true`
would be set to `false` in the tcp_{listen,connect}close_cb() as
the connection would be so short lived that the socket would be
closed before we could even start WAIT()ing
* The tcpdns has been converted to using libuv directly. Previously,
the tcpdns protocol used tcp protocol from netmgr, this proved to be
very complicated to understand, fix and make changes to. The new
tcpdns protocol is modeled in a similar way how tcp netmgr protocol.
Closes: #2194, #2283, #2318, #2266, #2034, #1920
* The tcp and tcpdns is now not using isc_uv_import/isc_uv_export to
pass accepted TCP sockets between netthreads, but instead (similar to
UDP) uses per netthread uv_loop listener. This greatly reduces the
complexity as the socket is always run in the associated nm and uv
loops, and we are also not touching the libuv internals.
There's an unfortunate side effect though, the new code requires
support for load-balanced sockets from the operating system for both
UDP and TCP (see #2137). If the operating system doesn't support the
load balanced sockets (either SO_REUSEPORT on Linux or SO_REUSEPORT_LB
on FreeBSD 12+), the number of netthreads is limited to 1.
* The netmgr has now two debugging #ifdefs:
1. Already existing NETMGR_TRACE prints any dangling nmsockets and
nmhandles before triggering assertion failure. This options would
reduce performance when enabled, but in theory, it could be enabled
on low-performance systems.
2. New NETMGR_TRACE_VERBOSE option has been added that enables
extensive netmgr logging that allows the software engineer to
precisely track any attach/detach operations on the nmsockets and
nmhandles. This is not suitable for any kind of production
machine, only for debugging.
* The tlsdns netmgr protocol has been split from the tcpdns and it still
uses the old method of stacking the netmgr boxes on top of each other.
We will have to refactor the tlsdns netmgr protocol to use the same
approach - build the stack using only libuv and openssl.
* Limit but not assert the tcp buffer size in tcp_alloc_cb
Closes: #2061
Make sure pointer checks in unit tests use cmocka assertion macros
dedicated for use with pointers instead of those dedicated for use with
integers or booleans.
cppcheck 2.2 reports the following false positive:
lib/isc/tests/quota_test.c:71:21: error: Array 'quotas[101]' accessed at index 110, which is out of bounds. [arrayIndexOutOfBounds]
isc_quota_t *quotas[110];
^
The above is not even an array access, so this report is obviously
caused by a cppcheck bug. Yet, it seems to be triggered by the presence
of the add_quota() macro, which should really be a function. Convert
the add_quota() macro to a function in order to make the code cleaner
and to prevent the above cppcheck 2.2 false positive from being
triggered.
When calling the high level netmgr functions, the callback would be
sometimes called synchronously if we catch the failure directly, or
asynchronously if it happens later. The synchronous call to the
callback could create deadlocks as the caller would not expect the
failed callback to be executed directly.
This commit adds couple of additional safeguards against running
sends/reads on inactive sockets. The changes was modeled after the
changes we made to netmgr/tcpdns.c
Parse the configuration of tls objects into SSL_CTX* objects. Listen on
DoT if 'tls' option is setup in listen-on directive. Use DoT/DoH ports
for DoT/DoH.
Add server-side TLS support to netmgr - that includes moving some of the
isc_nm_ functions from tcp.c to a wrapper in netmgr.c calling a proper
tcp or tls function, and a new isc_nm_listentls() function.
Add DoT support to tcpdns - isc_nm_listentlsdns().
there were two failures during observed in testing, both occurring
when 'rndc halt' was run rather than 'rndc stop' - the latter dumps
zone contents to disk and presumably introduced enough delay to
prevent the races:
- a failure when the zone was shut down and called dns_xfrin_detach()
before the xfrin had finished connecting; the connect timeout
terminated without detaching its handle
- a failure when the tcpdns socket timer fired after the outerhandle
had already been cleared.
this commit incidentally addresses a failure observed in mutexatomic
due to a variable having been initialized incorrectly.
This commit extends the perl Configure script to also check for libssl
in addition to libcrypto and change the vcxproj source files to link
with both libcrypto and libssl.
socket() call can return an error - e.g. EMFILE, so we need to handle
this nicely and not crash.
Additionally wrap the socket() call inside a platform independent helper
function as the Socket data type on Windows is unsigned integer:
> This means, for example, that checking for errors when the socket and
> accept functions return should not be done by comparing the return
> value with –1, or seeing if the value is negative (both common and
> legal approaches in UNIX). Instead, an application should use the
> manifest constant INVALID_SOCKET as defined in the Winsock2.h header
> file.
Because we use result earlier for setting the loadbalancing on the
socket, we could be left with a ISC_R_NOTIMPLEMENTED value stored in the
variable and when the UDP connection would succeed, we would
errorneously return this value instead of ISC_R_SUCCESS.
this function sets the read timeout for the socket associated
with a netmgr handle and, if the timer is running, resets it.
for TCPDNS sockets it also sets the read timeout and resets the
timer on the outer TCP socket.
When we are operating on the tcpdns socket, we need to double check
whether the socket or its outerhandle or its listener or its mgr is
still active and when not, bail out early.
If dnslisten_readcb gets a read callback it needs to verify that the
outer socket wasn't closed in the meantime, and issue a CANCELED callback
if it was.
tests of UDP and TCP cases including:
- sending and receiving
- closure sockets without reading or sending
- closure of sockets at various points while sending and receiving
- since the teste is multithreaded, cmocka now aborts tests on the
first failure, so that failures in subthreads are caught and
reported correctly.
There were more races that could happen while connecting to a
socket while closing or shutting down the same socket. This
commit introduces a .closing flag to guard the socket from
being closed twice.
There was a data race where a new event could be scheduled after
isc__nm_async_shutdown() had cleaned up all the dangling UDP/TCP
sockets from the loop.
- more logical code flow.
- propagate errors back to the caller.
- add a 'reading' flag and call the callback from failed_read_cb()
only when it the socket was actively reading.
- don't bother closing sockets that are already closing.
- UDP read timeout timer was not stopped after reading.
- improve handling of TCP connection failures.
- isc_nm_tcpdnsconnect() sets up up an outgoing TCP DNS connection.
- isc_nm_tcpconnect(), _udpconnect() and _tcpdnsconnect() now take a
timeout argument to ensure connections time out and are correctly
cleaned up on failure.
- isc_nm_read() now supports UDP; it reads a single datagram and then
stops until the next time it's called.
- isc_nm_cancelread() now runs asynchronously to prevent assertion
failure if reading is interrupted by a non-network thread (e.g.
a timeout).
- isc_nm_cancelread() can now apply to UDP sockets.
- added shim code to support UDP connection in versions of libuv
prior to 1.27, when uv_udp_connect() was added
all these functions will be used to support outgoing queries in dig,
xfrin, dispatch, etc.
If the connection is closed while we're processing the request
we might access TCPDNS outerhandle which is already reset. Check
for this condition and call the callback with ISC_R_CANCELED result.
While libltdl is a feature-rich library, BIND 9 code only uses its basic
capabilities, which are also provided by libuv and which BIND 9 already
uses for other purposes. As libuv's cross-platform shared library
handling interface is modeled after the POSIX dlopen() interface,
converting code using the latter to the former is simple. Replace
libltdl function calls with their libuv counterparts, refactoring the
code as necessary. Remove all use of libltdl from the BIND 9 source
tree.
When client disconnects before the connection can be accepted, the named
would log a spurious log message:
error: Accepting TCP connection failed: socket is not connected
We now ignore the ISC_R_NOTCONNECTED result code and log only other
errors
1. The isc__nm_tcp_send() and isc__nm_tcp_read() was not checking
whether the socket was still alive and scheduling reads/sends on
closed socket.
2. The isc_nm_read(), isc_nm_send() and isc_nm_resumeread() have been
changed to always return the error conditions via the callbacks, so
they always succeed. This applies to all protocols (UDP, TCP and
TCPDNS).
There were two problems how tcp_send_direct() was used:
1. The tcp_send_direct() can return ISC_R_CANCELED (or translated error
from uv_tcp_send()), but the isc__nm_async_tcpsend() wasn't checking
the error code and not releasing the uvreq in case of an error.
2. In isc__nm_tcp_send(), when the TCP send is already in the right
netthread, it uses tcp_send_direct() to send the TCP packet right
away. When that happened the uvreq was not freed, and the error code
was returned to the caller. We need to return ISC_R_SUCCESS and
rather use the callback to report an error in such case.
When closing the socket that is actively reading from the stream, the
read_cb() could be called between uv_close() and close callback when the
server socket has been already detached hence using sock->statichandle
after it has been already freed.
