Previously, the dns_geoip API used isc_thread_key API for TLS, which is
fairly complicated and requires initialization of memory contexts, etc.
This part of code was refactored to use a ISC_THREAD_LOCAL pointer which
greatly simplifies the whole code related to storing TLS variables, and
creating the local memory context was moved to named and stored in the
named_g_geoip global context.
- ns__client_request() is now called by netmgr with an isc_nmhandle_t
parameter. The handle can then be permanently associated with an
ns_client object.
- The task manager is paused so that isc_task events that may be
triggred during client processing will not fire until after the netmgr is
finished with it. Before any asynchronous event, the client MUST
call isc_nmhandle_ref(client->handle), to prevent the client from
being reset and reused while waiting for an event to process. When
the asynchronous event is complete, isc_nmhandle_unref(client->handle)
must be called to ensure the handle can be reused later.
- reference counting of client objects is now handled in the nmhandle
object. when the handle references drop to zero, the client's "reset"
callback is used to free temporary resources and reiniialize it,
whereupon the handle (and associated client) is placed in the
"inactive handles" queue. when the sysstem is shutdown and the
handles are cleaned up, the client's "put" callback is called to free
all remaining resources.
- because client allocation is no longer handled in the same way,
the '-T clienttest' option has now been removed and is no longer
used by any system tests.
- the unit tests require wrapping the isc_nmhandle_unref() function;
when LD_WRAP is supported, that is used. otherwise we link a
libwrap.so interposer library and use that.
The named_g_defaultdnstap was never used as the dnstap requires
explicit configuration of the output file.

- revise mapping of search terms to database types to match the
GeoIP2 schemas.
- open GeoIP2 databases when starting up; close when shutting down.
- clarify the logged error message when an unknown database type
is configured.
- add new geoip ACL subtypes to support searching for continent in
country databases.
- map geoip ACL subtypes to specific MMDB database queries.
- perform MMDB lookups based on subtype, saving state between
queries so repeated lookups for the same address aren't necessary.
The libxml2 have previously leaked into the global namespace leading
to forced -I<include_path> for every compilation unit using isc/xml.h
header. This MR fixes the usage making the caller object opaque.
After a failed reload I noticed two problems:
* There was a missing newline in the output of `rndc status` so it
finished "reload/reconfig in progressserver is up and running"
* The "reconfig in progress" note should have said "reconfig failed"
To minimize the effort required to set up IANA root zone mirroring,
define a default master server list for the root zone and use it when
that zone is to be mirrored and no master server list was explicitly
specified. Contents of that list are taken from RFC 7706 and are
subject to change in future releases.
Since the static get_masters_def() function in bin/named/config.c does
exactly what named_zone_configure() in bin/named/zoneconf.c needs to do,
make the former non-static and use it in the latter to prevent code
duplication.
The three functions has been modeled after the arc4random family of
functions, and they will always return random bytes.
The isc_random family of functions internally use these CSPRNG (if available):
1. getrandom() libc call (might be available on Linux and Solaris)
2. SYS_getrandom syscall (might be available on Linux, detected at runtime)
3. arc4random(), arc4random_buf() and arc4random_uniform() (available on BSDs and Mac OS X)
4. crypto library function:
4a. RAND_bytes in case OpenSSL
4b. pkcs_C_GenerateRandom() in case PKCS#11 library
4708. [cleanup] Legacy Windows builds (i.e. for XP and earlier)
are no longer supported. [RT #45186]
4707. [func] The lightweight resolver daemon and library (lwresd
and liblwres) have been removed. [RT #45186]
4706. [func] Code implementing name server query processing has
been moved from bin/named to a new library "libns".
Functions remaining in bin/named are now prefixed
with "named_" rather than "ns_". This will make it
easier to write unit tests for name server code, or
link name server functionality into new tools.
[RT #45186]
allows named to provide stale cached answers when
the authoritative server is under attack.
See max-stale-ttl, stale-answer-enable,
stale-answer-ttl. [RT #44790]
4549. [func] Added support for the EDNS TCP Keepalive option
(RFC 7828). [RT #42126]
4548. [func] Added support for the EDNS Padding option (RFC 7830).
[RT #42094]
to provide feedback to the trust-anchor administrators
about how key rollovers are progressing as per
draft-ietf-dnsop-edns-key-tag-02. This can be
disabled using 'trust-anchor-telemetry no;'.
[RT #40583]
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]
4411. [func] "rndc dnstap -roll" automatically rolls the
dnstap output file; the previous version is
saved with ".0" suffix, and earlier versions
with ".1" and so on. An optional numeric argument
indicates how many prior files to save. [RT #42830]
