The common construct seen in the BIND 9 source is func(isc_mem_t *mctx, ...).
Unfortunately, the dnstest.{h,c} has been using mctx as a global symbol, which
in turn generated a lot of errors when update.c got included in update_test.c.
As a rule of thumb, we should avoid naming global symbols with generic names
(like mctx) and we should prefix them with "namespace" (like dt_mctx).
The CHECK() macro has been defined both in dnstest.h and update.c
files. This has created a conflict between macro definitions when
including both of the files in update_test.c. While the CHECK() macro
is convenient for the tests, it has been really used in just two
files, so the MR moves them into those respective .c files.
Replace dns_fixedname_init() calls followed by dns_fixedname_name()
calls with calls to dns_fixedname_initname() where it is possible
without affecting current behavior and/or performance.
This patch was mostly prepared using Coccinelle and the following
semantic patch:
@@
expression fixedname, name;
@@
- dns_fixedname_init(&fixedname);
...
- name = dns_fixedname_name(&fixedname);
+ name = dns_fixedname_initname(&fixedname);
The resulting set of changes was then manually reviewed to exclude false
positives and apply minor tweaks.
It is likely that more occurrences of this pattern can be refactored in
an identical way. This commit only takes care of the low-hanging fruit.
