- updated libisccc to use netmgr events
- updated rndc to use isc_nm_tcpconnect() to establish connections
- updated control channel to use isc_nm_listentcp()
open issues:
- the control channel timeout was previously 60 seconds, but it is now
overridden by the TCP idle timeout setting, which defaults to 30
seconds. we should add a function that sets the timeout value for
a specific listener socket, instead of always using the global value
set in the netmgr. (for the moment, since 30 seconds is a reasonable
timeout for the control channel, I'm not prioritizing this.)
- the netmgr currently has no support for UNIX-domain sockets; until
this is addressed, it will not be possible to configure rndc to use
them. we will need to either fix this or document the change in
behavior.
There were some missing bits in the other rst files and Makefile.am(s)
that didn't reflect the rename of the main document. Also add
ddns-confgen.8 manpage.
it is now an error to have two primaries lists with the same
name. this is true regardless of whether the "primaries" or
"masters" keywords were used to define them.
as "type primary" is preferred over "type master" now, it makes
sense to make "primaries" available as a synonym too.
added a correctness check to ensure "primaries" and "masters"
cannot both be used in the same zone.
Add the code and documentation required to provide DNSSEC signing
status through rndc. This does not yet show any useful information,
just provide the command that will output some dummy string.
Similarly, the manpage sources will get rebuild only when in maintainer
mode because they require sphinx-build to be available locally and that
might not be always the case.
The files in doc/misc requires all the BIND 9 libraries to be built
before the documentation can be built. One of the extra automake
features is maintainer mode that allows to conditionally build and clean
files that require special tools. Make use of the automake maintainer
mode to not rebuild the files in doc/misc under normal circumstances.
The doc/misc/options is used to generate a file describing all
configuration options. Currently, the file contents could differ
based on ./configure option which is kind of suboptimal.
We already removed the "// not configured" from the options.active, and
this time we remove generation of the string altogether.
these keywords were added to the parser as synonyms for "master"
and "slave" but were never hooked in to the configuration of named,
so they were ignored. this has been fixed and the option is now
checked for correctness.
