With FIPS mode enabled 'isc_hmac_init_test' and 'isc_hmac_md5_test'
tests of hmac_test and 'isc_md_init_test' and 'isc_md_md5_test' test
of md_test fail.
This is due to leveraging MD5, which is disabled in FIPS mode.
The CI doesn't provide useful forensics when a system test locks
up. Fork the process and kill it with ABRT if it is still running
after 20 minutes. Pass the exit status to the caller.
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 only place where dns_name_hash() was being used is the old hash
table in the dns_badcache unit. Squash the dns_name_fullhash() and
dns_name_hash() into single dns_name_hash() function that's always
case-insensitive as it doesn't make to do case-sensitive hashing of the
domain names and we were not using this anywhere.
This is a simple replacement using the semantic patch from the previous
commit and as added bonus, one removal of previously undetected unused
variable in named/server.c.
Instead of marking the unused entities with UNUSED(x) macro in the
function body, use a `ISC_ATTR_UNUSED` attribute macro that expans to
C23 [[maybe_unused]] or __attribute__((__unused__)) as fallback.
Previously, isc_job_run() could have been used to run the job on the
current loop and the isc_job_run() would take care of allocating and
deallocating the job. After the change in this MR, the isc_job_run()
is more complicated to use, so we introduce the isc_async_current()
macro to suplement isc_async_run() when we need to run the job on the
current loop.
Change the isc_job_run() to not-make any allocations. The caller must
make sure that it allocates isc_job_t - usually as part of the argument
passed to the callback.
For simple jobs, using isc_async_run() is advised as it allocates its
own separate isc_job_t.
The isc_nm_httpconnect() would succeed even if the netmgr would be
already shuttingdown. This has been fixed and the unit test has been
updated to cope with fact that the handle would be NULL when
isc_nm_httpconnect() returns with an error.
add a public function ns_interface_create() allowing the caller
to set up a listening interface directly without having to set
up listen-on and scan network interfaces.
stop and restart the server in the 'tsiggss' test, in order
to confirm that GSS negotiated TSIG keys are saved and restored
when named loads.
added logging to dns_tsigkey_createfromkey() to indicate whether
a key has been statically configured, generated via GSS negotiation,
or restored from a file.
Completely remove the TKEY Mode 2 (Diffie-Hellman Exchanged Keying) from
BIND 9 (from named, named.conf and all the tools). The TKEY usage is
fringe at best and in all known cases, GSSAPI is being used as it should.
The draft-eastlake-dnsop-rfc2930bis-tkey specifies that:
4.2 Diffie-Hellman Exchanged Keying (Deprecated)
The use of this mode (#2) is NOT RECOMMENDED for the following two
reasons but the specification is still included in Appendix A in case
an implementation is needed for compatibility with old TKEY
implementations. See Section 4.6 on ECDH Exchanged Keying.
The mixing function used does not meet current cryptographic
standards because it uses MD5 [RFC6151].
RSA keys must be excessively long to achieve levels of security
required by current standards.
We might optionally implement Elliptic Curve Diffie-Hellman (ECDH) key
exchange mode 6 if the draft ever reaches the RFC status. Meanwhile the
insecure DH mode needs to be removed.
This implements node reference tracing that passes all the internal
layers from dns_db API (and friends) to increment_reference() and
decrement_reference().
It can be enabled by #defining DNS_DB_NODETRACE in <dns/trace.h> header.
The output then looks like this:
incr:node:check_address_records:rootns.c:409:0x7f67f5a55a40->references = 1
decr:node:check_address_records:rootns.c:449:0x7f67f5a55a40->references = 0
incr:nodelock:check_address_records:rootns.c:409:0x7f67f5a55a40:0x7f68304d7040->references = 1
decr:nodelock:check_address_records:rootns.c:449:0x7f67f5a55a40:0x7f68304d7040->references = 0

Add some qp-trie tracing macros which can be enabled by a
developer. These print a message when a leaf is attached or
detached, indicating which part of the qp-trie implementation
did so. The refcount methods must now return the refcount value
so it can be printed by the trace macros.
The first working multi-threaded qp-trie was stuck with an unpleasant
trade-off:
* Use `isc_rwlock`, which has acceptable write performance, but
terrible read scalability because the qp-trie made all accesses
through a single lock.
* Use `liburcu`, which has great read scalability, but terrible
write performance, because I was relying on `rcu_synchronize()`
which is rather slow. And `liburcu` is LGPL.
To get the best of both worlds, we need our own scalable read side,
which we now have with `isc_qsbr`. And we need to modify the write
side so that it is not blocked by readers.
Better write performance requires an async cleanup function like
`call_rcu()`, instead of the blocking `rcu_synchronize()`. (There
is no blocking cleanup in `isc_qsbr`, because I have concluded
that it would be an attractive nuisance.)
Until now, all my multithreading qp-trie designs have been based
around two versions, read-only and mutable. This is too few to
work with asynchronous cleanup. The bare minimum (as in epoch
based reclamation) is three, but it makes more sense to support an
arbitrary number. Doing multi-version support "properly" makes
fewer assumptions about how safe memory reclamation works, and it
makes snapshots and rollbacks simpler.
To avoid making the memory management even more complicated, I
have introduced a new kind of "packed reader node" to anchor the
root of a version of the trie. This is simpler because it re-uses
the existing chunk lifetime logic - see the discussion under
"packed reader nodes" in `qp_p.h`.
I have also made the chunk lifetime logic simpler. The idea of a
"generation" is gone; instead, chunks are either mutable or
immutable. And the QSBR phase number is used to indicate when a
chunk can be reclaimed.
Instead of the `shared_base` flag (which was basically a one-bit
reference count, with a two version limit) the base array now has a
refcount, which replaces the confusing ad-hoc lifetime logic with
something more familiar and systematic.
Adjust the dns_qp_memusage() and dns_qp_compact() functions
to be more informative and flexible about handling fragmentation.
Avoid wasting space in runt chunks.
Switch from twigs_mutable() to cells_immutable() because that is the
sense we usually want.
Drop the redundant evacuate() function and rename evacuate_twigs() to
evacuate(). Move some chunk test functions closer to their point of
use.
Clarify compact_recursive(). Some small cleanups to comments.
Use isc_time_monotonic() for qp-trie timing stats.
Use #define constants to control debug logging.
Set up DNS name label offsets in dns_qpkey_fromname() so it is easier
to use in cases where the name is not fully hydrated.
The main benchmark is `qpmulti`, which exercizes the qp-trie
transactional API with differing numbers of threads and differing data
sizes, to get some idea of how its performance scales.
The `load-names` benchmark compares the times to populate and query
and the memory used by various BIND data structures: qp-trie, hash
table (chained), hash map (closed), and red-black tree.
The `qp-dump` program is a test utility rather than a benchmark. It
populates a qp-trie and prints it out, either in an ad-hoc text
format, or as input to the graphviz `dot` program.
Randomized testing with intensive consistency and correctness checks
make it much easier to get good coverage and to shake out bugs than
hand-written unit tests for specific cases.
These tests only run in a single thread, but each test transaction
uses both a write/update and a query/snapshot, to ensure that
modifications are not visible to concurrent readers.
This change adds a number of support routines for the unit tests, and
for benchmarks and fuzz tests to be added later. It isn't necessary to
include the support routines in libdns, since they are not needed by
BIND's installed programs. So `libtest` seems like the best place for
them.
The tests themselves verify that dns_qpkey_fromname() behaves as
expected.
`libirs` used to be a reference implementation of `getaddrinfo` and
related modern resolver APIs. It was stripped down in BIND 9.18
leaving only the `irs_resconf` module, which parses
`/etc/resolv.conf`. I have kept its include path and namespace prefix,
so it remains a little fragment of libirs now embedded in libdns.
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.
callback events from dns_resolver_createfetch() are now posted
using isc_async_run.
other modules which called the resolver and maintained task/taskmgr
objects for this purpose have been cleaned up.
the rate limter now uses loop callbacks rather than task events.
the API for isc_ratelimiter_enqueue() has been changed; we now pass
in a loop, a callback function and a callback argument, and
receive back a rate limiter event object (isc_rlevent_t). it
is no longer necessary for the caller to allocate the event.
the callback argument needs to include a pointer to the rlevent
object so that it can be freed using isc_rlevent_free(), or by
dequeueing.
The total memory counter had again little or no meaning when we removed
the internal memory allocator. It was just a monotonic counter that
would count add the allocation sizes but never subtracted anything, so
it would be just a "big number".
DSCP has not been fully working since the network manager was
introduced in 9.16, and has been completely broken since 9.18.
This seems to have caused very few difficulties for anyone,
so we have now marked it as obsolete and removed the
implementation.
To ensure that old config files don't fail, the code to parse
dscp key-value pairs is still present, but a warning is logged
that the feature is obsolete and should not be used. Nothing is
done with configured values, and there is no longer any
range checking.
Additionally to renaming, it changes the function definition so that
it accepts a pointer to pointer instead of returning a pointer to the
new object.
It is mostly done to make it in line with other functions in the
module.

This commit ensures that generic TLS unit tests are available in non
DoH-enabled builds, as isc_nm_tlssocket is not tied exclusively to the
DoH implementation anymore.
This commit modifies the existing unit tests for TLS DNS and TCP DNS
in such a way that the new Stream DNS transport is used as it is
intended to be a drop-in replacement for these two transports.
When the buffer is allocated via isc_buffer_allocate() and the size is
smaller or equal ISC_BUFFER_STATIC_SIZE (currently 512 bytes), the
buffer will be allocated as a flexible array member in the buffer
structure itself instead of allocating it on the heap. This should help
when the buffer is used on the hot-path with small allocations.
