libsystemd, despite being useful, adds a huge surface area for just
using the sd_notify API. libsystemd's surface has been exploited in the
past [1].
Implement the systemd notification protocol by hand since it is just
sending newline-delimited datagrams to a UNIX socket. The code shouldn't
need more attention in the future since the notification protocol is
covered under systemd's stability promise [2].
We don't need to support VSOCK-backed service notifications since they
are only intended for virtual machine inits.

This new rndc option allows to reset some statistics counters during
runtime. At this moment only the high-water type counters are supported
as such an ability to reset them after the initial peaks during the
server's "warm-up" phase can be useful for some operators.
This can be set at the option, view and server levels and causes
named to add an EDNS ZONEVERSION option to requests. Replies are
logged to the 'zoneversion' category.
Add missing locks in dns_zone_getxfrsource4 et al. Addresses CID
468706, 468708, 468741, 468742, 468785 and 468778.
Cleanup dns_zone_setxfrsource4 et al to now return void.
Remove double copies with dns_zone_getprimaryaddr and dns_zone_getsourceaddr.
In the case where 'clients-per-query' is larger than
'max-clients-per-query', raise 'max-clients-per-query' so that
'clients-per-query' equals 'max-clients-per-query' and log a warning
that this is what happened.
Assigning value "NULL" to "newstr", but that stored value is overwritten
before it can be used.
Setting "newstr" to NULL does not have any effect, so the line can
safely be removed.
When all the addresses were already iterated over, the
dns_remote_curraddr() function asserts. So before calling it,
dns_zone_getprimaryaddr() now checks the address list using the
dns_remote_done() function. This also means that instead of
returning 'isc_sockaddr_t' it now returns 'isc_result_t' and
writes the primary's address into the provided pointer only when
returning success.
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.
dns_name_fromtext() stores the converted name in the 'name'
passed to it, and optionally also copies it in wire format to
a buffer 'target'. this makes the interface unnecessarily
complex, and could be simplified by having a different function
for each purpose. as a first step, remove uses of the target
buffer in calls to dns_name_fromtext() where it wasn't actually
needed.
There was just a single use of passing an extra buffer to
dns_name_downcase() which have been replaced by simple call to
isc_ascii_lowercase() and the 'target' argument from dns_name_downcase()
function has been removed.
The offsets were meant to speed-up the repeated dns_name operations, but
it was experimentally proven that there's actually no real-world
benefit. Remove the offsets and labels fields from the dns_name and the
static offsets fields to save 128 bytes from the fixedname in favor of
calculating labels and offsets only when needed.
Instead of relying on unreliable order of execution of the library
constructors and destructors, move them to individual binaries. The
advantage is that the execution time and order will remain constant and
will not depend on the dynamic load dependency solver.
This requires more work, but that was mitigated by a simple requirement,
any executable using libisc and libdns, must include <isc/lib.h> and
<dns/lib.h> respectively (in this particular order). In turn, these two
headers must not be included from within any library as they contain
inlined functions marked with constructor/destructor attributes.
Previously a hard-coded limitation of maximum two key or message
verification checks were introduced when checking the message's
SIG(0) signature. It was done in order to protect against possible
DoS attacks. The logic behind choosing the number two was that more
than one key should only be required only during key rotations, and
in that case two keys are enough. But later it became apparent that
there are other use cases too where even more keys are required, see
issue number #5050 in GitLab.
This change introduces two new configuration options for the views,
sig0key-checks-limit and sig0message-checks-limit, which define how
many keys are allowed to be checked to find a matching key, and how
many message verifications are allowed to take place once a matching
key has been found. The latter protects against expensive cryptographic
operations when there are keys with colliding tags and algorithm
numbers, with default being 2, and the former protects against a bit
less expensive key parsing operations and defaults to 16.
Expose the average transfer rate (in bytes-per-second) during the
last full 'min-transfer-rate-in <bytes> <minutes>' minutes interval.
If no such interval has passed yet, then the overall average rate is
reported instead.
This new option sets a minimum amount of transfer rate for
an incoming zone transfer that will abort a transfer, which
for some network related reasons run very slowly.
This commit does several changes to isc_symtab:
1. Rewrite the isc_symtab to internally use isc_hashmap instead of
hand-stiched hashtable.
2. Create a new isc_symtab_define_and_return() api, which returns
the already defined symvalue on ISC_R_EXISTS; this allows users
of the API to skip the isc_symtab_lookup()+isc_symtab_define()
calls and directly call isc_symtab_define_and_return().
3. Merge isccc_symtab into isc_symtab - the only missing function
was isccc_symtab_foreach() that was merged into isc_symtab API.
4. Add full set of unit tests for the isc_symtab API.
Instead of mixing the dns_resolver and dns_validator units directly with
the EDE code, split-out the dns_ede functionality into own separate
compilation unit and hide the implementation details behind abstraction.
Additionally, the EDE codes are directly copied into the ns_client
buffers by passing the EDE context to dns_resolver_createfetch().
This makes the dns_ede implementation simpler to use, although sligtly
more complicated on the inside.

The new command is `rndc memprof`. The memory profiling status is also
reported inside `rndc status`. The status also shows whether named can
toggle memory profiling or not and if the server is built with jemalloc.
ISCCC_R_SYNTAX, ISCCC_R_EXPIRED, and ISCCC_R_CLOCKSKEW have the
same usage and text formats as DNS_R_SYNTAX, DNS_R_EXPIRED and
DNS_R_CLOCKSCREW respectively. this was originally done because
result codes were defined in separate libraries, and some tool
might be linked with libisccc but not libdns. as the result codes
are now defined in only one place, there's no need to retain the
duplicates.
building BIND without crypto support is no longer possible.
consequently this result code is never sent, and therefore we
don't need code in calling functions to handle it.
the isc_mem allocation functions can no longer fail; as a result,
ISC_R_NOMEMORY is now rarely used: only when an external library
such as libjson-c or libfstrm could return NULL. (even in
these cases, arguably we should assert rather than returning
ISC_R_NOMEMORY.)
code and comments that mentioned ISC_R_NOMEMORY have been
cleaned up, and the following functions have been changed to
type void, since (in most cases) the only value they could
return was ISC_R_SUCCESS:
- dns_dns64_create()
- dns_dyndb_create()
- dns_ipkeylist_resize()
- dns_kasp_create()
- dns_kasp_key_create()
- dns_keystore_create()
- dns_order_create()
- dns_order_add()
- dns_peerlist_new()
- dns_tkeyctx_create()
- dns_view_create()
- dns_zone_setorigin()
- dns_zone_setfile()
- dns_zone_setstream()
- dns_zone_getdbtype()
- dns_zone_setjournal()
- dns_zone_setkeydirectory()
- isc_lex_openstream()
- isc_portset_create()
- isc_symtab_create()
(the exception is dns_view_create(), which could have returned
other error codes in the event of a crypto library failure when
calling isc_file_sanitize(), but that should be a RUNTIME_CHECK
anyway.)
Commit b121f02eac renamed the top-level
"primaries" block in bin/named/config.c to "remote-servers". This
configuration block lists the primary servers used for an IANA root zone
mirror when no primary servers are explicitly specified for it in the
configuration. However, the relevant part of the named_zone_configure()
function only looks for a top-level "primaries" block and not for any of
its synonyms. As a result, configuring an IANA root zone mirror with
just:
zone "." {
type mirror;
};
now results in a cryptic fatal error on startup:
loading configuration: not found
exiting (due to fatal error)
Fix by using the correct top-level block name in named_zone_configure().
Since BIND 9 headers are not longer public, there's no reason to keep
the ISC_LANG_BEGINDECL and ISC_LANG_ENDDECL macros to support including
them from C++ projects.
Add back the top blocks 'parental-agents', 'primaries', and 'masters'
to the configuration. Do not document them as so many names for the
same clause is confusing.
This has a slight negative side effect that a top block 'primaries'
can be referred to with a zone statement 'parental-agents' for example,
but that shouldn't be a big issue.
Having zone statements that are also top blocks is confusing, and if
we want to add more in the future (which I suspect will be for
generalized notifications, multi-signer), we need to duplicate a lot
of code.
Remove top blocks 'parental-agents' and 'primaries' and just have one
top block 'remote-servers' that you can refer to with zone statements.
this commit removes the deprecated "sortlist" option. the option
is now marked as ancient; it is a fatal error to use it in
named.conf.
the sortlist system test has been removed, and other tests that
referenced the option have been modified.
the enabling functions, dns_message_setsortorder() and
dns_rdataset_towiresorted(), have also been removed.
The dnssec-must-be-secure feature was added in the early days of BIND 9
and DNSSEC and it makes sense only as a debugging feature. There are no
reasons to keep this feature in the production code anymore.
Remove the feature to simplify the code.
when the attach-cache option is used in the options block
with an arbitrary name, it causes all views to use the same
cache. however, previously, this could cause the cache to be
deleted and a new cache created every time the server was
reconfigured. this did *not* occur when attach-cache was
used at the view level to refer back to another view's cache.
in this commit we correct the problem by checking for
pre-existing caches during reconfiguration, and moving
them from the old server cache list to the new cache list
before cleaning up and freeing the old cache list.
Changing the default for max-recursion-queries from 100 to 32 was too
strict in some cases, especially lookups in reverse IPv6 trees started
to fail more frequently. From issue #4921 it looks like 50 is a better
default.
Now that we have 'max-query-count' as a global limit of outgoing queries
per client request, we can increase the default for
'max-recursion-queries' again, as the number of recursive queries is
no longer bound by the multiple of 'max-recursion-queries' and
'max-query-restarts'.
Add another option to configure how many outgoing queries per
client request is allowed. The existing 'max-recursion-queries' is
per restart, this one is a global limit.
Add support for Extended DNS Errors (EDE) error 22: No reachable
authority. This occurs when after a timeout delay when the resolver is
trying to query an authority server.
The lame-ttl processing was overriden to be disabled in the config,
but the code related to the lame-ttl was still kept in the resolver
code. More importantly, the DNS_RESOLVER_BADCACHETTL() macro would
cause the entries in the resolver badcache to be always cached for at
least 30 seconds even if the lame-ttl would be set to 0.
Remove the dns_badcache code from the dns_resolver unit, so we save some
processing time and memory in the resolver code.
Instead of cleaning the dns_badcache opportunistically, add per-loop
LRU, so each thread-loop can clean the expired entries. This also
allows removal of the atomic operations as the badcache entries are now
immutable, instead of updating the badcache entry in place, the old
entry is now deleted from the hashtable and the LRU list, and the new
entry is inserted in the LRU.
Stop using ns_listenlist_default() to set the default listen-on
and listen-on-v6 configuration. Instead, configure these options
using the default values in config.c.
