The rewrite of BIND 9 build system is a large work and cannot be reasonable
split into separate merge requests. Addition of the automake has a positive
effect on the readability and maintainability of the build system as it is more
declarative, it allows conditional and we are able to drop all of the custom
make code that BIND 9 developed over the years to overcome the deficiencies of
autoconf + custom Makefile.in files.
This squashed commit contains following changes:
- conversion (or rather fresh rewrite) of all Makefile.in files to Makefile.am
by using automake
- the libtool is now properly integrated with automake (the way we used it
was rather hackish as the only official way how to use libtool is via
automake
- the dynamic module loading was rewritten from a custom patchwork to libtool's
libltdl (which includes the patchwork to support module loading on different
systems internally)
- conversion of the unit test executor from kyua to automake parallel driver
- conversion of the system test executor from custom make/shell to automake
parallel driver
- The GSSAPI has been refactored, the custom SPNEGO on the basis that
all major KRB5/GSSAPI (mit-krb5, heimdal and Windows) implementations
support SPNEGO mechanism.
- The various defunct tests from bin/tests have been removed:
bin/tests/optional and bin/tests/pkcs11
- The text files generated from the MD files have been removed, the
MarkDown has been designed to be readable by both humans and computers
- The xsl header is now generated by a simple sed command instead of
perl helper
- The <irs/platform.h> header has been removed
- cleanups of configure.ac script to make it more simpler, addition of multiple
macros (there's still work to be done though)
- the tarball can now be prepared with `make dist`
- the system tests are partially able to run in oot build
Here's a list of unfinished work that needs to be completed in subsequent merge
requests:
- `make distcheck` doesn't yet work (because of system tests oot run is not yet
finished)
- documentation is not yet built, there's a different merge request with docbook
to sphinx-build rst conversion that needs to be rebased and adapted on top of
the automake
- msvc build is non functional yet and we need to decide whether we will just
cross-compile bind9 using mingw-w64 or fix the msvc build
- contributed dlz modules are not included neither in the autoconf nor automake
Previously, the dns_name API used isc_thread_key API for TLS, which is
fairly complicated and requires initialization of memory contexts, etc.
This part of code was refactored to use a ISC_THREAD_LOCAL pointer which
greatly simplifies the whole code related to storing TLS variables.
With the move of the normal output to stdout, we need a way how to silence the
extra output, so the signed file name can be captured in a simple way. This
commit adds `-q` command line option that will silence all the normal output
that get's printed from both tools.
The lib/dns/zoneverify.c output was hardwired to stderr, which was inconsistent
with lib/dns/dnssec.c. This commit changes zoneverify.c to print the normal run
information to caller supplied function - same model as in the lib/dns/dnssec.c.
Extend check_dnskey_sigs() so that, if requested, it checks whether the
DNSKEY RRset at zone apex is signed by at least one trust anchor. The
trust anchor table is passed as an argument to dns_zoneverify_dnssec()
and passed around in the verification context structure. Neither
dnssec-signzone nor dnssec-verify are yet modified to make use of that
feature, though.
Since exit() is no longer called upon any dns_zoneverify_dnssec() error,
verification failures should be signalled to callers. Make
dns_zoneverify_dnssec() return an isc_result_t and handle both success
and error appropriately in bin/dnssec/dnssec-signzone.c and
bin/dnssec/dnssec-verify.c. This enables memory leak detection during
shutdown of these tools and causes dnssec-signzone to print signing
statistics even when zone verification fails.
These functions will be used in the process of replacing fatal(),
check_result(), and fprintf() calls throughout lib/dns/zoneverify.c with
code that does not call exit(). They are intended for:
- zoneverify_log_error(): logging problems encountered while
performing zone verification,
- zoneverify_print(): printing status messages and reports which are
only useful in standalone tools.
To make using dns_zone_logv() possible, add a new "zone" argument to
dns_zoneverify_dnssec() that standalone tools are expected to set to
NULL.
This commit only moves code around, with the following exceptions:
- the check_dns_dbiterator_current() macro and functions
is_delegation() and has_dname() were removed from
bin/dnssec/dnssectool.{c,h} and duplicated in two locations:
bin/dnssec/dnssec-signzone.c and lib/dns/zoneverify.c; these
functions are used both by the code in bin/dnssec/dnssec-signzone.c
and verifyzone(), but are not a good fit for being exported by a
code module responsible for zone verification,
- fatal() and check_result() were duplicated in lib/dns/zoneverify.c
as static functions which do not use the "program" variable any more
(as it is only set by the tools in bin/dnssec/); this is a temporary
step which only aims to prevent compilation from breaking - these
duplicate functions will be removed once lib/dns/zoneverify.c is
refactored not to use them,
- the list of header files included by lib/dns/zoneverify.c was
expanded to encompass all header files that are actually used by the
code in that file,
- a description of the purpose of the commented out "fields" inside
struct nsec3_chain_fixed was added.
- Replace external -DOPENSSL/-DPKCS11CRYPTO with properly AC_DEFINEd
HAVE_OPENSSL/HAVE_PKCS11
- Don't enforce the crypto provider from platform.h, just from dst_api.c
and configure scripts
The three functions has been modeled after the arc4random family of
functions, and they will always return random bytes.
The isc_random family of functions internally use these CSPRNG (if available):
1. getrandom() libc call (might be available on Linux and Solaris)
2. SYS_getrandom syscall (might be available on Linux, detected at runtime)
3. arc4random(), arc4random_buf() and arc4random_uniform() (available on BSDs and Mac OS X)
4. crypto library function:
4a. RAND_bytes in case OpenSSL
4b. pkcs_C_GenerateRandom() in case PKCS#11 library
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.
3786. [func] Provide more detailed error codes when using
native PKCS#11. "pkcs11-tokens" now fails robustly
rather than asserting when run against an HSM with
an incomplete PCKS#11 API implementation. [RT #35479]
3705. [func] "configure --enable-native-pkcs11" enables BIND
to use the PKCS#11 API for all cryptographic
functions, so that it can drive a hardware service
module directly without the need to use a modified
OpenSSL as intermediary (so long as the HSM's vendor
provides a complete-enough implementation of the
PKCS#11 interface). This has been tested successfully
with the Thales nShield HSM and with SoftHSMv2 from
the OpenDNSSEC project. [RT #29031]
