4499. [port] MacOSX: silence deprecated function warning
by using arc4random_stir() when available
instead of arc4random_addrandom(). [RT #43503]
(cherry picked from commit 3fb62a5a4e)
4421. [func] When built with LMDB (Lightning Memory-mapped
Database), named will now use a database to store
the configuration for zones added by "rndc addzone"
instead of using a flat NZF file. This improves
performance of "rndc delzone" and "rndc modzone"
significantly. Existing NZF files will
automatically by converted to NZD databases.
To view the contents of an NZD or to roll back to
NZF format, use "named-nzd2nzf". To disable
this feature, use "configure --without-lmdb".
[RT #39837]
4235. [func] Added support in named for "dnstap", a fast method of
capturing and logging DNS traffic, and a new command
"dnstap-read" to read a dnstap log file. Use
"configure --enable-dnstap" to enable this
feature (note that this requires libprotobuf-c
and libfstrm). See the ARM for configuration details.
Thanks to Robert Edmonds of Farsight Security.
[RT #40211]
experimental SIT option of BIND 9.10. The following
named.conf directives are avaliable: send-cookie,
cookie-secret, cookie-algorithm and nocookie-udp-size.
The following dig options are available:
+[no]cookie[=value] and +[no]badcookie. [RT #39928]
3851. [func] Allow libseccomp based system-call filtering
on Linux; use "configure --enable-seccomp" to
turn it on. Thanks to Loganaden Velvindron for
the contribution. [RT #35347]
3781. [tuning] Use adaptive mutex locks when available; this
has been found to improve performance under load
on many systems. "configure --with-locktype=standard"
restores conventional mutex locks. [RT #32576]
3760. [bug] Improve SIT with native PKCS#11 and on Windows.
[RT #35433]
3759. [port] Enable delve on Windows. [RT #35441]
3758. [port] Enable export library APIs on windows. [RT #35382]
3745. [func] "configure --with-tuning=large" adjusts various
compiled-in constants and default settings to
values suited to large servers with abundant
memory. [RT #29538]
(which are similar to DNS Cookies by Donald Eastlake)
and are designed to help clients detect off path
spoofed responses and for servers to detect legitimate
clients.
SIT use a experimental EDNS option code (65001).
SIT can be enabled via --enable-developer or
--enable-sit. It is on by default in Windows.
RRL processing as been updated to know about SIT with
legitimate clients not being rate limited. [RT #35389]
3733. [func] Improve interface scanning support. Interface
information will be automatically updated if the
OS supports routing sockets (MacOS, *BSD, Linux).
Use "automatic-interface-scan no;" to disable.
Add "rndc scan" to trigger a scan. [RT #23027]
information will be automatically updated if the
OS supports routing sockets. Use
"automatic-interface-scan no;" to disable.
Add "rndc scan" to trigger a scan. [RT #23027]
3705. [func] "configure --enable-native-pkcs11" enables BIND
to use the PKCS#11 API for all cryptographic
functions, so that it can drive a hardware service
module directly without the need to use a modified
OpenSSL as intermediary (so long as the HSM's vendor
provides a complete-enough implementation of the
PKCS#11 interface). This has been tested successfully
with the Thales nShield HSM and with SoftHSMv2 from
the OpenDNSSEC project. [RT #29031]
3524. [func] Added an alternate statistics channel in JSON format,
when the server is built with the json-c library:
http://[address]:[port]/json. [RT #32630]
3504. [func] Add support for ACLs based on geographic location,
using MaxMind GeoIP databases. Based on code
contributed by Ken Brownfield <kb@slide.com>.
[RT #30681]
- check for mmap() in configure
- implement isc_file_mmap() and isc_file_munmap() to do
malloc()/read() and free() when run on systems that do not
support mmap().
3327. [func] Added 'filter-aaaa-on-v6' option; this is similar
to 'filter-aaaa-on-v4' but applies to IPv6
connections. (Use "configure --enable-filter-aaaa"
to enable this option.) [RT #27308]
