This includes the following changes:
3326. [func] Added task list statistics: task model, worker
threads, quantum, tasks running, tasks ready.
[RT #27678]
3325. [func] Report cache statistics: memory use, number of
nodes, number of hash buckets, hit and miss counts.
[RT #27056]
3324. [test] Add better tests for ADB stats [RT #27057]
3323. [func] Report the number of buckets the resolver is using.
[RT #27020]
3322. [func] Monitor the number of active TCP and UDP dispatches.
[RT #27055]
3321. [func] Monitor the number of recursive fetches and the
number of open sockets, and report these values in
the statistics channel. [RT #27054]
3320. [func] Added support for monitoring of recursing client
count. [RT #27009]
3319. [func] Added support for monitoring of ADB entry count and
hash size. [RT #27057]
3316. [tuning] Improved locking performance when recursing.
[RT #28836]
- Use one lock per memory pool instead of associating
them all with a single 'pool_lock' in the dispatch manager.
- Reduce the critical sections for qid->lock in get_dispsocket(),
deref_portentry() and dns_dispatch_addresponse2().
- Added a memory pool for socket events in dns_dispatch_t.
- Add an isc_socketevent_t member in the resquery_t object, and use
it with isc_socket_sendto2() instead of using isc_socket_sendto()
- Tuned the memory pools in dispatch.c for better performance
under load
Added API to create a set of UDP dispatches which can be shared
round-robin style when making upstream queries for authoritative
data; this should reduce lock contention in the query source
dispatch.
negative-cache records rather than using rrtype 0;
this will prevent problems when that rrtype is
used in actual DNS packets. [RT #24777]
3123. [security] Change #2912 exposed a latent flaw in
dns_rdataset_totext() that could cause named to
crash with an assertion failure. [RT #24777]
to 10. Allow setting this in named.conf using the new
'resolver-query-timeout' option, which specifies a max
time in seconds. 0 means 'default' and anything longer
than 30 will be silently set to 30. [RT #22852]
allow dynamic addition and deletion of zones.
To enable this feature, specify a "new-zone-file"
option at the view or options level in named.conf.
Zone configuration information for the new zones
will be written into that file. To make the new
zones persist after a restart, "include" the file
into named.conf in the appropriate view. (Note:
This feature is not yet documented, and its syntax
is expected to change.) [RT #19447]
