The dnssec-must-be-secure feature was added in the early days of BIND 9
and DNSSEC and it makes sense only as a debugging feature.
Remove the feature to simplify the code.
Add the text "TTL-style unit suffixes or ISO 8601 duration formats",
just like we do at other places that are duration option types.
Also, in the dnssec-policy "keys" example, use a TTL-style unit too.
There's a statement that says: "Here is an example (for illustration
purposes only) of some possible entries in a [keys] list:", and that
links to the wrong "keys" statement (it links to the TSIG keys section).
Remove the reference, as we are already in the right section.
The doc/arm/requirements.txt file is the single source of truth when it
comes to Sphinx tools versions used to build documentation via
util/release-tarball-comparison.sh.
Move i386 and other less common or ancient CPU architectures to
Community-Maintened category. Move armhf and arm64 to the Best-Effort
category as we do test them as part of development work (new MacBooks
are all arm64), we don't really do full set of tests in the CI.
This adds support for User Statically Defined Tracing (USDT). On
Linux, this uses the header from SystemTap and dtrace utility, but the
support is universal as long as dtrace is available.
Also add the required infrastructure to add probes to libisc, libdns and
libns libraries, where most of the probes will be.
these options concentrate zone maintenance actions into
bursts for the benefit of servers with intermittent connections.
that's no longer something we really need to optimize.
Add an option to enable/disable inline-signing inside the
dnssec-policy clause. The existing inline-signing option that is
set in the zone clause takes priority, but if it is omitted, then the
value that is set in dnssec-policy is taken.
The built-in policies use inline-signing.
This means that if you want to use the default policy without
inline-signing you either have to set it explicitly in the zone
clause:
zone "example" {
...
dnssec-policy default;
inline-signing no;
};
Or create a new policy, only overriding the inline-signing option:
dnssec-policy "default-dynamic" {
inline-signing no;
};
zone "example" {
...
dnssec-policy default-dynamic;
};
This also means that if you are going insecure with a dynamic zone,
the built-in "insecure" policy needs to be accompanied with
"inline-signing no;".
These two configuration options worked in conjunction with 'auto-dnssec'
to determine KSK usage, and thus are now obsoleted.
However, in the code we keep KSK processing so that when a zone is
reconfigured from using 'dnssec-policy' immediately to 'none' (without
going through 'insecure'), the zone is not immediately made bogus.
Add one more test case for going straight to none, now with a dynamic
zone (no inline-signing).
Update the ARM and DNSSEC guide, removing references to 'auto-dnssec',
replacing them with 'dnssec-policy' if needed.
The section "Alternative Ways" of signing has to be refactored, since
we now only focus on one alternative way, that is manual signing.
