When the tests-connreset.py module was initially implemented in commit
5c17919019, the dispatch code did not
properly apply the idle timeout to TCP connections. This allowed the
check in that test module to reset the TCP connection after 5 seconds as
named did not attempt to tear the connection down earlier than that.
However, as the dispatch code was improved, the idle timeout started
being enforced for TCP dispatches; the exact value it is set to in the
current code depends on a given server's SRTT, but it defaults to about
1.2 seconds for responsive servers. This means that the code paths
triggered by the "dispatch" system test are now different than the ones
it was originally supposed to trigger because it is now named itself
that shuts the TCP connection down cleanly before the ans3 server gets a
chance to reset it.
Account for the above by lowering the amount of time after which the
ans3 server in the "dispatch" system test resets TCP connections to just
1 second, so that the test actually does what its name implies.
All these setup files only use copy_setports function which can be done
with jinja2 templates instead -- simply by renaming the .in files to
.j2, without any other changes. The pytest runner will render these
templates during test setup without any need for an additional script.
The old name "common" clashes with the convention of system test
directory naming. It appears as a system test directory, but it only
contains helper files.
To reduce confusion and to allow automatic detection of issues with
possibly missing test files, rename the helper directory to "_common".
The leading underscore indicates the directory is different and the its
name can no longer be confused with regular system test directories.
the default value of dnssec-validation is 'auto', which causes
a server to send a key refresh query to the root zone when starting
up. this is undesirable behavior in system tests, so this commit
sets dnssec-validation to either 'yes' or 'no' in all tests where
it had not previously been set.
this change had the mostly-harmless side effect of changing the cached
trust level of unvalidated answer data from 'answer' to 'authanswer',
which caused a few test cases in which dumped cache data was examined in
the serve-stale system test to fail. those test cases have now been
updated to expect 'authanswer'.
It is better to use consistent file names to avoid issue with sorting
etc.
Using underscore in filenames as opposed to dash was chosen because it
seems more common in pytest/python to use underscore for filenames.
Also rename the bin/tests/system/timeouts/tests-tcp.py file to
bin/tests/system/timeouts/tests_tcp_timeouts.py to avoid pytest name
collision (there can't be two files named tests_tcp.py).
Most Python-based system tests need to know which ports were assigned to
a given test by bin/tests/system/get_ports.sh. This is currently
handled by inspecting the values of various environment variables (set
by bin/tests/system/run.sh) and passing the port numbers to Python
scripts via pytest fixtures. However, this glue code has so far been
copy-pasted into each system test using it, rather than reused.
Since pytest also looks for conftest.py files in parent directories,
move commonly used fixtures to bin/tests/system/conftest.py. Set the
scope of all the moved fixtures to "session" as their return values are
only based on environment variables, so there is no point in recreating
them for every test requesting them. Adjust test code accordingly.
This commit converts the license handling to adhere to the REUSE
specification. It specifically:
1. Adds used licnses to LICENSES/ directory
2. Add "isc" template for adding the copyright boilerplate
3. Changes all source files to include copyright and SPDX license
header, this includes all the C sources, documentation, zone files,
configuration files. There are notes in the doc/dev/copyrights file
on how to add correct headers to the new files.
4. Handle the rest that can't be modified via .reuse/dep5 file. The
binary (or otherwise unmodifiable) files could have license places
next to them in <foo>.license file, but this would lead to cluttered
repository and most of the files handled in the .reuse/dep5 file are
system test files.
The TCP connection reset test starts mock UDP and TCP server which
always returns empty DNS answer with TC bit set over UDP and resets the
TCP connection after five seconds.
When tested without the fix, the DNS query to 10.53.0.2 times out and
the ns2 server hangs at shutdown.
