use the ISC_LIST_FOREACH pattern in places where lists had
been iterated using a different pattern from the typical
`for` loop: for example, `while (!ISC_LIST_EMPTY(...))` or
`while ((e = ISC_LIST_HEAD(...)) != NULL)`.
ISC_LIST_FOREACH and related macros now use 'typeof(list.head)' to
declare the list elements automatically; the caller no longer needs
to do so.
ISC_LIST_FOREACH_SAFE also now implicitly declares its own 'next'
pointer, so it only needs three parameters instead of four.
In the code base it is very common to iterate over all names in a message
section and all rdatasets for each name, but various idioms are used for
iteration.
This commit standardizes them as much as possible to a single idiom,
using the macro MSG_SECTION_FOREACH, similar to the existing
ISC_LIST_FOREACH.
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.
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dns_name_downcase() which have been replaced by simple call to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.
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.
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.)
The network manager layer has two different timers with their
own timeout values for TCP connections: connect timeout and read
timeout. Separate the connect and the read TCP timeouts in the
dispatch module too.
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.
The new
isc_log_createandusechannel() function combines following calls:
isc_log_createchannel()
isc_log_usechannel()
calls into a single call that cannot fail and therefore can be used in
places where we know this cannot fail thus simplifying the error
handling.
Remove the complicated mechanism that could be (in theory) used by
external libraries to register new categories and modules with
statically defined lists in <isc/log.h>. This is similar to what we
have done for <isc/result.h> result codes. All the libraries are now
internal to BIND 9, so we don't need to provide a mechanism to register
extra categories and modules.
Add isc_logconfig_get() function to get the current logconfig and use
the getter to replace most of the little dancing around setting up
logging in the tools. Thus:
isc_log_create(mctx, &lctx, &logconfig);
isc_log_setcontext(lctx);
dns_log_setcontext(lctx);
...
...use lcfg...
...
isc_log_destroy();
is now only:
logconfig = isc_logconfig_get(lctx);
...use lcfg...
For thread-safety, isc_logconfig_get() should be surrounded by RCU read
lock, but since we never use isc_logconfig_get() in threaded context,
the only place where it is actually used (but not really needed) is
named_log_init().
New version of clang (19) has introduced a stricter checks when mixing
integer (and float types) with enums. In this case, we used enum {}
as C17 doesn't have constexpr yet. Change the time conversion constants
to be static const unsigned int instead of enum values.
Instead of calling dst_lib_init() and dst_lib_destroy() explicitly by
all the programs, create a separate memory context for the DST subsystem
and use the library constructor and destructor to initialize the DST
internals.
The OpenSSL 1.x Engines support has been deprecated in the OpenSSL 3.x
and is going to be removed. Remove the OpenSSL Engine support in favor
of OpenSSL Providers.
With _exit() instead of exit() in place, we don't need
isc__tls_setfatalmode() mechanism as the atexit() calls will not be
executed including OpenSSL atexit hooks.
Since the fatal() isn't a correct but rather abrupt termination of the
program, we want to skip the various atexit() calls because not all
memory might be freed during fatal() call, etc. Using _exit() instead
of exit() has this effect - the program will end, but no destructors or
atexit routines will be called.
certain dig options which were deprecated and became nonoperational
several releases ago still had documentation in the dig man page and
warnings printed when they were used: these included +mapped,
+sigchase, +topdown, +unexpected, +trusted-key, and the -i and -n
options. these are now all fatal errors.
another option was described as deprecated in the man page, but
the code to print a warning was never added. it has been added now.
Instead of creating new memory pools for each new dns_message, change
dns_message_create() method to optionally accept externally created
dns_fixedname_t and dns_rdataset_t memory pools. This allows us to
preallocate the memory pools in ns_client and dns_resolver units for the
lifetime of dns_resolver_t and ns_clientmgr_t.
Reusing TCP connections with dns_dispatch_gettcp() used linear linked
list to lookup existing outgoing TCP connections that could be reused.
Replace the linked list with per-loop cds_lfht hashtable to speedup the
lookups. We use cds_lfht because it allows non-unique node insertion
that we need to check for dispatches in different connection states.
Instead of high number of dispatches (4 * named_g_udpdisp)[1], make the
dispatches bound to threads and make dns_dispatchset_t create a dispatch
for each thread (event loop).
This required couple of other changes:
1. The dns_dispatch_createudp() must be called on loop, so the isc_tid()
is already initialized - changes to nsupdate and mdig were required.
2. The dns_requestmgr had only a single dispatch per v4 and v6. Instead
of using single dispatch, use dns_dispatchset_t for each protocol -
this is same as dns_resolver.
The dns_dispatchmgr object was only set in the dns_view object making it
prone to use-after-free in the dns_xfrin unit when shutting down named.
Remove dns_view_setdispatchmgr() and optionally pass the dispatchmgr
directly to dns_view_create() when it is attached and not just assigned,
so the dns_dispatchmgr doesn't cease to exist too early.
The dns_view_getdnsdispatchmgr() is now protected by the RCU lock, the
dispatchmgr reference is incremented, so the caller needs to detach from
it, and the function can return NULL in case the dns_view has been
already shut down.
When dns_request was canceled via dns_requestmgr_shutdown() the cancel
event would be propagated on different loop (loop 0) than the loop where
request was created on. In turn this would propagate down to isc_netmgr
where we require all the events to be called from the matching isc_loop.
Pin the dns_requests to the loops and ensure that all the events are
called on the associated loop. This in turn allows us to remove the
hashed locks on the requests and change the single .requests list to be
a per-loop list for the request accounting.
Additionally, do some extra cleanup because some race condititions are
now not possible as all events on the dns_request are serialized.
This change makes the zone table lock-free for reads. Previously, the
zone table used a red-black tree, which is not thread safe, so the hot
read path acquired both the per-view mutex and the per-zonetable
rwlock. (The double locking was to fix to cleanup races on shutdown.)
One visible difference is that zones are not necessarily shut down
promptly: it depends on when the qp-trie garbage collector cleans up
the zone table. The `catz` system test checks several times that zones
have been deleted; the test now checks for zones to be removed from
the server configuration, instead of being fully shut down. The catz
test does not churn through enough zones to trigger a gc, so the zones
are not fully detached until the server exits.
After this change, it is still possible to improve the way we handle
changes to the zone table, for instance, batching changes, or better
compaction heuristics.
When fatal is called we may be holding memory allocated by OpenSSL.
This may result in the reference count for the FIPS provider not
going to zero and the shared library not being unloaded during
OPENSSL_cleanup. When the shared library is ultimately unloaded,
when all remaining dynamically loaded libraries are freed, we have
already destroyed the memory context we where using to track memory
leaks / late frees resulting in INSIST being called.
Disable triggering the INSIST when fatal has being called.
The isc_time_now() and isc_time_now_hires() were used inconsistently
through the code - either with status check, or without status check,
or via TIME_NOW() macro with RUNTIME_CHECK() on failure.
Refactor the isc_time_now() and isc_time_now_hires() to always fail when
getting current time has failed, and return the isc_time_t value as
return value instead of passing the pointer to result in the argument.
the 'dispatchmgr' member of the resolver object is used by both
the dns_resolver and dns_request modules, and may in the future
be used by others such as dns_xfrin. it doesn't make sense for it
to live in the resolver object; this commit moves it into dns_view.
as there is no further use of isc_task in BIND, this commit removes
it, along with isc_taskmgr, isc_event, and all other related types.
functions that accepted taskmgr as a parameter have been cleaned up.
as a result of this change, some functions can no longer fail, so
they've been changed to type void, and their callers have been
updated accordingly.
the tasks table has been removed from the statistics channel and
the stats version has been updated. dns_dyndbctx has been changed
to reference the loopmgr instead of taskmgr, and DNS_DYNDB_VERSION
has been udpated as well.
dns_request_create() and _createraw() now take a 'loop' parameter
and run the callback event on the specified loop.
as the task manager is no longer used, it has been removed from
the dns_requestmgr structure. the dns_resolver_taskmgr() function
is also no longer used and has been removed.
It is trivial to fully cleanup memory on all the error paths in
named-rrchecker, many of which are triggered by bad user input.
This involves freeing lex and mctx if they exist when fatal is
called.
* rbt node chains were sized to allow for bitstring labels, so they
had 256 levels; but in the absence of bistrings, 128 is enough.
* dns_byaddr_createptrname() had a redundant options argument,
and a very outdated doc comment.
* A number of comments referred to bitstring labels in a way that is
no longer helpful. (A few informative comments remain.)
