Instead of (1) allocating a parser, (2) parsing a file/buffer then (3)
freeing the parser, the parser is now internally created/destroyed from
within the `cfg_parse_*` functions. This simplifies a lot the use cases,
especially around the error cases where the parser needs to be freed in
a cleanup goto.
The only trick was the parser callback mechanism, which would previously
have been set up between steps 1 and 2. Since it's never been used for
any purpose other than the "directory" option, the chdir call has now
been moved inside the parser and the generic callback mechanism has been
removed, replacing CFG_CLAUSEFLAG_CALLBACK with CFG_CLAUSEFLAG_CHDIR.
cfg_obj_t doesn't store a pointer to its a parser context anymore,
and does not depend on the parser's lifecycle. Instead, it stores a
reference to its own memory context (and in principle, each node
could have different memory context). This also slightly simplifies
the _destroy API as there is no need to pass a context through it
anymore.
When generating a new key, dnssec-keygen checks for possible
key ID collisions with existing keys. The dnssec.c:findmatchingkeys()
function, which is supposed to get the list of the existing keys,
fails to do that for the existing KEY rrtype keys (i.e. generated
using 'dnssec-keygen -T KEY') because it doesn't pass down to the
dst_key_fromnamedfile() -> dst_key_read_public() functions the type
of the keys it's interested in. Fix the issue by introducing a new
function parameter which tells in which type of keys the caller is
currently interested in.
You should not use dnssec-importkey to import DNSKEY records from
other providers (for example when setting up multi-signer).
Clarify this in the manpage.
With named-checkconf -k you can check your configuration including
checking the dnssec-policy keys against the configured keystores. If
there is a mismatch in the key files versus the policy, named-checkconf
will fail. This is useful for running before migrating to dnssec-policy.
For logging purposes, introduce a function that writes the identifying
information about a policy key into a string.
Allow a dnssec key to be initialized outside the keymgr code.
Add 'log_errors' to 'cfg_kasp_fromconfig' to avoid duplicate error
logs.
As we removed the ability to count nodes in the auxiliary trees (because
there are no auxiliary trees), we can also cleanup the API and
associated enum type (dns_dbtree_t).
the rdataset method implementation functions in dns/rdatalist.c (i.e.,
dns_rdatalist_first, _next, etc) are not meant to be called directly;
they're called via dns_rdataset_first(), dns_rdataset_next(), etc.
in dnssec-ksr.c, a list-based rdataset was iterated using these
functions. this has been fixed, and the functions have been renamed
to use the `dns__` prefix as a signal that they aren't meant to be
used outside the rdataset implementation.
Clang 20 is complaining about passing NULL to an argument with 'nonnull'
attribute. Mark these two functions with the same attribute to assure
that these two function also don't accept NULL as an argument.

All databases in the codebase follow the same structure: a database is
an associative container from DNS names to nodes, and each node is an
associative container from RR types to RR data.
Each database implementation (qpzone, qpcache, sdlz, builtin, dyndb) has
its own corresponding node type (qpznode, qpcnode, etc). However, some
code needs to work with nodes generically regardless of their specific
type - for example, to acquire locks, manage references, or
register/unregister slabs from the heap.
Currently, these generic node operations are implemented as methods in
the database vtable, which creates problematic coupling between database
and node lifetimes. If a node outlives its parent database, the node
destructor will destroy all RR data, and each RR data destructor will
try to unregister from heaps by calling a virtual function from the
database vtable. Since the database was already freed, this causes a
crash.
This commit breaks the coupling by standardizing the layout of all
database nodes, adding a dedicated vtable for node operations, and
moving node-specific methods from the database vtable to the node
vtable.
This required couple of internal changes to the isc_mem_debugging.
The isc_mem_debugging is now internal to isc_mem unit and there are
three new functions:
1. isc_mem_setdebugging() can change the debugging setting for an
individual memory context. This is need for the memory contexts used
for OpenSSL, libxml and libuv accounting as recording and tracing
memory is broken there.
2. isc_mem_debugon() / isc_mem_debugoff() can be used to change default
memory debugging flags as well as debugging flags for isc_g_mctx.
Additionally, the memory debugging is inconsistent across the code-base.
For now, we are keeping the existing flags, but three new environment
variables have been added 'ISC_MEM_DEBUGRECORD', 'ISC_MEM_DEBUGTRACE'
and 'ISC_MEM_DEBUGUSAGE' to set the global debugging flags at any
program using the memory contexts.
Instead of having individual memory contexts scattered across different
files and called different names, add a single memory context called
isc_g_mctx that replaces named_g_mctx and various other global memory
contexts in various utilities and tests.
There is only a single network manager running on top of the loop
manager (except for tests). Refactor the network manager to be a
singleton (a single instance) and change the unit tests, so that the
shorter read timeouts apply only to a specific handle, not the whole
extra 'connect_nm' network manager instance.
All the applications built on top of the loop manager were required to
create just a single instance of the loop manager. Refactor the loop
manager to not expose this instance to the callers and keep the loop
manager object internal to the isc_loop compilation unit.
This significantly simplifies a number of data structures and calls to
the isc_loop API.
DNSKEY algorithms RSASHA1 and RSASHA-NSEC3-SHA1 and DS digest type
SHA1 are deprecated. Log when these are present in primary zone
files and when generating new DNSKEYs, DS and CDS records.
Use the existing RSASHA256 and RSASHA512 implementation to provide
working PRIVATEOID example implementations. We are using the OID
values normally associated with RSASHA256 (1.2.840.113549.1.1.11)
and RSASHA512 (1.2.840.113549.1.1.13).
Add support for proposed DS digest types that encode the private
algorithm identifier at the start of the DS digest as is done for
DNSKEY and RRSIG. This allows a DS record to identify the specific
DNSSEC algorithm, rather than a set of algorithms, when the algorithm
field is set to PRIVATEDNS or PRIVATEOID.
DST algorithm and DNSSEC algorithm values are not necessarily the same
anymore: if the DNSSEC algorithm value is PRIVATEOID or PRIVATEDNS, then
the DST algorithm will be mapped to something else. The conversion is
now done correctly where necessary.
Meson is a modern build system that has seen a rise in adoption and some
version of it is available in almost every platform supported.
Compared to automake, meson has the following advantages:
* Meson provides a significant boost to the build and configuration time
by better exploiting parallelism.
* Meson is subjectively considered to be better in readability.
These merits alone justify experimenting with meson as a way of
improving development time and ergonomics. However, there are some
compromises to ensure the transition goes relatively smooth:
* The system tests currently rely on various files within the source
directory. Changing this requirement is a non-trivial task that can't
be currently justified. Currently the last compiled build directory
writes into the source tree which is in turn used by pytest.
* The minimum version supported has been fixed at 0.61. Increasing this
value will require choosing a baseline of distributions that can
package with meson. On the contrary, there will likely be an attempt
to decrease this value to ensure almost universal support for building
BIND 9 with meson.
There were several methods how we used 'argv[0]'. Some programs had a
static value, some programs did use isc_file_progname(), some programs
stripped 'lt-' from the beginning of the name. And some used argv[0]
directly.
Unify the handling and all the variables into isc_commandline_progname
that gets populated by the new isc_commandline_init(argc, argv) call.
Instead of giving the memory context names with an explicit call to
isc_mem_setname(), add the name to isc_mem_create() call to have all the
memory contexts an unconditional name.
replace the pattern `for (result = dns_rdataset_first(x); result ==
ISC_R_SUCCES; result = dns_rdataset_next(x)` with a new
`DNS_RDATASET_FOREACH` macro throughout BIND.
previously, ISC_LIST_FOREACH and ISC_LIST_FOREACH_SAFE were
two separate macros, with the _SAFE version allowing entries
to be unlinked during the loop. ISC_LIST_FOREACH is now also
safe, and the separate _SAFE macro has been removed.
similarly, the ISC_LIST_FOREACH_REV macro is now safe, and
ISC_LIST_FOREACH_REV_SAFE has also been removed.
The `max-rsa-exponent-size` could limit the exponents of the RSA
public keys during the DNSSEC verification. Instead of providing
a cryptic (not cryptographic) knob, hardcode the max exponent to
be 4096 (the theoretical maximum for DNSSEC).
use the ISC_LIST_FOREACH pattern in places where lists had
been iterated using a different pattern from the typical
`for` loop: for example, `while (!ISC_LIST_EMPTY(...))` or
`while ((e = ISC_LIST_HEAD(...)) != NULL)`.
the pattern `for (x = ISC_LIST_HEAD(...); x != NULL; ISC_LIST_NEXT(...)`
has been changed to `ISC_LIST_FOREACH` throughout BIND, except in a few
cases where the change would be excessively complex.
in most cases this was a straightforward change. in some places,
however, the list element variable was referenced after the loop
ended, and the code was refactored to avoid this necessity.
also, because `ISC_LIST_FOREACH` uses typeof(list.head) to declare
the list elements, compilation failures can occur if the list object
has a `const` qualifier. some `const` qualifiers have been removed
from function parameters to avoid this problem, and where that was not
possible, `UNCONST` was used.
The -s option (previously incorrectly documented as "strength")
actually set the signatory flags for KEY fields, which are unused.
The option is not needed.
The -p (protocol) option for all keys defaults to 3 (DNSSEC).
There is currently no practical reason to use any other value;
we can simplify things by removing the option.
The -n (nametype) option for keys defaults to ZONE for DNSKEY
type keys, and HOST for KEY type keys. There is currently no
practical reason to use any other name type; we can simplify
things by removing the option.
The key type flag (indicating whether a key is valid for
authentication, confidentiality, or both) is essentially
unused. By default, all DNSKEY and KEY records are valid
for both uses. Non-authenticating DNSKEY records are undefined
and meaningless, and validity checks for flags in KEY records
are sporadic at best.
We can simplify the parameters to dnssec-keygen by removing
the -t option completely.
Use enums for DNS_KEYFLAG_, DNS_KEYTYPE_, DNS_KEYOWNER_, DNS_KEYALG_,
and DNS_KEYPROTO_ values.
Remove values that are never used.
Eliminate the obsolete DNS_KEYFLAG_SIGNATORYMASK. Instead, add three
more RESERVED bits for the key flag values that it covered but which
were never used.
Since algorithm fetching is handled purely in libisc, FIPS mode toggling
can be purely done in within the library instead of provider fetching in
the binary for OpenSSL >=3.0.
Disabling FIPS mode isn't a realistic requirement and isn't done
anywhere in the codebase. Make the FIPS mode toggle enable-only to
reflect the situation.
previously, dns_name_fromtext() took both a target name and an
optional target buffer parameter, which could override the name's
dedicated buffer. this interface is unnecessarily complex.
we now have two functions, dns_name_fromtext() to convert text
into a dns_name that has a dedicated buffer, and dns_name_wirefromtext()
to convert text into uncompressed DNS wire format and append it to a
target buffer.
in cases where it really is necessary to have both, we can use
dns_name_fromtext() to load the dns_name, then dns_name_towire()
to append the wire format to the target buffer.
the target buffer passed to dns_name_concatenate() was never
used (except for one place in dig, where it wasn't actually
needed, and has already been removed in a prior commit).
we can safely remove the parameter.
