when built with "configure --enable-singletrace", named will produce
detailed query logging at the highest debug level for any query with
query ID zero.
this enables monitoring of the progress of a single query by specifying
the QID using "dig +qid=0". the "client" logging category should be set
to a low severity level to suppress logging of other queries. (the
chance of another query using QID=0 at the same time is only 1 in 2^16.)
"--enable-singletrace" turns on "--enable-querytrace" as well, so if the
logging severity is not lowered, all other queries will be logged
verbosely as well. compiling with either of these options will impair
query performance; they should only be turned on when testing or
troubleshooting.
This adds a unit test driver for BIND with Automake. It runs the unit
test program provided as its sole command line argument and then looks
for a core dump generated by that test program. If one is found, the
driver prints the backtrace into the test log.
In process_fd we lock sock->lock and then internal_accept locks mgr->lock,
in isc_sockmgr_render* functions we lock mgr->lock and then lock sock->lock,
that can cause a deadlock when accessing stats. Unlock sock->lock early in
all the internal_{send,recv,connect,accept} functions instead of late
in process_fd.
Instead of using bind() and passing the listening socket to the children
threads using uv_export/uv_import use one thread that does the accepting,
and then passes the connected socket using uv_export/uv_import to a random
worker. The previous solution had thundering herd problems (all workers
waking up on one connection and trying to accept()), this one avoids this
and is simpler.
The tcp clients quota is simplified with isc_quota_attach_cb - a callback
is issued when the quota is available.
Add recursive "test" and "unit" rules, which execute "make check"
in specific directories - "make test" runs the system tests, and
"make unit" runs the unit tests.
The rewrite of BIND 9 build system is a large work and cannot be reasonable
split into separate merge requests. Addition of the automake has a positive
effect on the readability and maintainability of the build system as it is more
declarative, it allows conditional and we are able to drop all of the custom
make code that BIND 9 developed over the years to overcome the deficiencies of
autoconf + custom Makefile.in files.
This squashed commit contains following changes:
- conversion (or rather fresh rewrite) of all Makefile.in files to Makefile.am
by using automake
- the libtool is now properly integrated with automake (the way we used it
was rather hackish as the only official way how to use libtool is via
automake
- the dynamic module loading was rewritten from a custom patchwork to libtool's
libltdl (which includes the patchwork to support module loading on different
systems internally)
- conversion of the unit test executor from kyua to automake parallel driver
- conversion of the system test executor from custom make/shell to automake
parallel driver
- The GSSAPI has been refactored, the custom SPNEGO on the basis that
all major KRB5/GSSAPI (mit-krb5, heimdal and Windows) implementations
support SPNEGO mechanism.
- The various defunct tests from bin/tests have been removed:
bin/tests/optional and bin/tests/pkcs11
- The text files generated from the MD files have been removed, the
MarkDown has been designed to be readable by both humans and computers
- The xsl header is now generated by a simple sed command instead of
perl helper
- The <irs/platform.h> header has been removed
- cleanups of configure.ac script to make it more simpler, addition of multiple
macros (there's still work to be done though)
- the tarball can now be prepared with `make dist`
- the system tests are partially able to run in oot build
Here's a list of unfinished work that needs to be completed in subsequent merge
requests:
- `make distcheck` doesn't yet work (because of system tests oot run is not yet
finished)
- documentation is not yet built, there's a different merge request with docbook
to sphinx-build rst conversion that needs to be rebased and adapted on top of
the automake
- msvc build is non functional yet and we need to decide whether we will just
cross-compile bind9 using mingw-w64 or fix the msvc build
- contributed dlz modules are not included neither in the autoconf nor automake
With the introduction of dnssec-policy, the aforementioned tools were
either rendered obsolete, or they will be replaced with dnssec-policy
based tools. Remove the tools and the requirement to have Python
installed. Python 3 is still being used for tests, so keep the autoconf
test, but make it much simpler.
The pk11/constants.h header contained static CK_BYTE arrays and
we had to use #defines to pull only those we need. This commit
changes the constants to only define byte arrays with the content
and either use them directly or define the CK_BYTE arrays locally
where used.
All our MSVS Project files share the same intermediate directory. We
know that this doesn't cause any problems, so we can just disable the
detection in the project files.
Example of the warning:
warning MSB8028: The intermediate directory (.\Release\) contains files shared from another project (dnssectool.vcxproj). This can lead to incorrect clean and rebuild behavior.
MSVC documentation states: "This warning can be caused when a pointer to
a const or volatile item is assigned to a pointer not declared as
pointing to const or volatile."
Unfortunately, this happens when we dynamically allocate and deallocate
block of atomic variables using isc_mem_get and isc_mem_put.
Couple of examples:
lib\isc\hp.c(134): warning C4090: 'function': different 'volatile' qualifiers [C:\builds\isc-projects\bind9\lib\isc\win32\libisc.vcxproj]
lib\isc\hp.c(144): warning C4090: 'function': different 'volatile' qualifiers [C:\builds\isc-projects\bind9\lib\isc\win32\libisc.vcxproj]
lib\isc\stats.c(55): warning C4090: 'function': different 'volatile' qualifiers [C:\builds\isc-projects\bind9\lib\isc\win32\libisc.vcxproj]
lib\isc\stats.c(87): warning C4090: 'function': different 'volatile' qualifiers [C:\builds\isc-projects\bind9\lib\isc\win32\libisc.vcxproj]
The InterlockedOr8() and InterlockedAnd8() first argument was cast
to (atomic_int_fast8_t) instead of (atomic_int_fast8_t *), this was
reported by MSVC as:
warning C4024: '_InterlockedOr8': different types for formal and actual parameter 1
warning C4024: '_InterlockedAnd8': different types for formal and actual parameter 1
Our vcxproj files set the WarningLevel to Level3, which is too verbose
for a code that needs to be portable. That basically leads to ignoring
all the errors that MSVC produces. This commits downgrades the
WarningLevel to Level1 and enables treating warnings as errors for
Release builds. For the Debug builds the WarningLevel got upgraded to
Level4, and treating warnings as errors is explicitly disabled.
We should eventually make the code clean of all MSVC warnings, but it's
a long way to go for Level4, so it's more reasonable to start at Level1.
For reference[1], these are the warning levels as described by MSVC
documentation:
* /W0 suppresses all warnings. It's equivalent to /w.
* /W1 displays level 1 (severe) warnings. /W1 is the default setting
in the command-line compiler.
* /W2 displays level 1 and level 2 (significant) warnings.
* /W3 displays level 1, level 2, and level 3 (production quality)
warnings. /W3 is the default setting in the IDE.
* /W4 displays level 1, level 2, and level 3 warnings, and all level 4
(informational) warnings that aren't off by default. We recommend
that you use this option to provide lint-like warnings. For a new
project, it may be best to use /W4 in all compilations. This option
helps ensure the fewest possible hard-to-find code defects.
* /Wall displays all warnings displayed by /W4 and all other warnings
that /W4 doesn't include — for example, warnings that are off by
default.
* /WX treats all compiler warnings as errors. For a new project, it
may be best to use /WX in all compilations; resolving all warnings
ensures the fewest possible hard-to-find code defects.

The assembly code generated by MSVC for at least some signed comparisons
involving atomic variables incorrectly uses unsigned conditional jumps
instead of signed ones. In particular, the checks in isc_log_wouldlog()
are affected in a way which breaks logging on Windows and thus also all
system tests involving a named instance. Work around the issue by
assigning the values returned by atomic_load_acquire() calls in
isc_log_wouldlog() to local variables before performing comparisons.
The rwlock introduced to protect the .logconfig member of isc_log_t
structure caused a significant performance drop because of the rwlock
contention. It was also found, that the debug_level member of said
structure was not protected from concurrent read/writes.
The .dynamic and .highest_level members of isc_logconfig_t structure
were actually just cached values pulled from the assigned channels.
We introduced an even higher cache level for .dynamic and .highest_level
members directly into the isc_log_t structure, so we don't have to
access the .logconfig member in the isc_log_wouldlog() function.
