When the DNS_FETCHOPT_EDNS512 flag was first introduced [1], it enforced
advertising a 512-byte UDP buffer size in an outgoing query. Ever since
EDNS processing code got updated [2], that flag has still been set upon
detection of certain query timeout patterns, but it has no longer been
affecting the calculations of the advertised UDP buffer size in outgoing
queries. Restore original semantic meaning of DNS_FETCHOPT_EDNS512 by
ensuring the advertised UDP buffer size is set to 512 bytes when that
flag is set. Update existing comments and add new ones to improve code
readability.

The following message:
success resolving '<name>' (in '<domain>'?) after reducing the advertised EDNS UDP packet size to 512 octets
can currently be logged even if the EDNS UDP buffer size advertised in
queries sent to a given server had already been set to 512 octets before
the fetch context was created (e.g. due to the server responding
intermittently). In other words, this log message may be misleading as
lowering the advertised EDNS UDP buffer size may not be the actual cause
of <name> being successfully resolved. Remove the log message in
question to prevent confusion.
As this log message is the only existing user of the "reason" field in
struct fetchctx, remove that field as well, along with all the code
related to it.
If there are more that 5 NS record for a zone only perform a
maximum of 4 address lookups for all the name servers. This
limits the amount of remote lookup performed for server
addresses at each level for a given query.
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
BIND wasn't honoring option "deny-answer-aliases" when configured to
forward queries.
Before the fix it was possible for nameservers listed in "forwarders"
option to return CNAME answers pointing to unrelated domains of the
original query, which could be used as a vector for rebinding attacks.
The fix ensures that BIND apply filters even if configured as a forwarder
instance.

This commit simplifies a bit the lock management within dns_resolver_prime()
and prime_done() functions by means of turning resolver's attribute
"priming" into an atomic_bool and by creating only one dependent object on the
lock "primelock", namely the "primefetch" attribute.
By having the attribute "priming" as an atomic type, it save us from having to
use a lock just to test if priming is on or off for the given resolver context
object, within "dns_resolver_prime" function.
The "primelock" lock is still necessary, since dns_resolver_prime() function
internally calls dns_resolver_createfetch(), and whenever this function
succeeds it registers an event in the task manager which could be called by
another thread, namely the "prime_done" function, and this function is
responsible for disposing the "primefetch" attribute in the resolver object,
also for resetting "priming" attribute to false.
It is important that the invariant "priming == false AND primefetch == NULL"
remains constant, so that any thread calling "dns_resolver_prime" knows for sure
that if the "priming" attribute is false, "primefetch" attribute should also be
NULL, so a new fetch context could be created to fulfill this purpose, and
assigned to "primefetch" attribute under the lock protection.
To honor the explanation above, dns_resolver_prime is implemented as follow:
1. Atomically checks the attribute "priming" for the given resolver context.
2. If "priming" is false, assumes that "primefetch" is NULL (this is
ensured by the "prime_done" implementation), acquire "primelock"
lock and create a new fetch context, update "primefetch" pointer to
point to the newly allocated fetch context.
3. If "priming" is true, assumes that the job is already in progress,
no locks are acquired, nothing else to do.
To keep the previous invariant consistent, "prime_done" is implemented as follow:
1. Acquire "primefetch" lock.
2. Keep a reference to the current "primefetch" object;
3. Reset "primefetch" attribute to NULL.
4. Release "primefetch" lock.
5. Atomically update "priming" attribute to false.
6. Destroy the "primefetch" object by using the temporary reference.
This ensures that if "priming" is false, "primefetch" was already reset to NULL.
It doesn't make any difference in having the "priming" attribute not protected
by a lock, since the visible state of this variable would depend on the calling
order of the functions "dns_resolver_prime" and "prime_done".
As an example, suppose that instead of using an atomic for the "priming" attribute
we employed a lock to protect it.
Now suppose that "prime_done" function is called by Thread A, it is then preempted
before acquiring the lock, thus not reseting "priming" to false.
In parallel to that suppose that a Thread B is scheduled and that it calls
"dns_resolver_prime()", it then acquires the lock and check that "priming" is true,
thus it will consider that this resolver object is already priming and it won't do
any more job.
Conversely if the lock order was acquired in the other direction, Thread B would check
that "priming" is false (since prime_done acquired the lock first and set "priming" to false)
and it would initiate a priming fetch for this resolver.
An atomic variable wouldn't change this behavior, since it would behave exactly the
same, depending on the function call order, with the exception that it would avoid
having to use a lock.
There should be no side effects resulting from this change, since the previous
implementation employed use of the more general resolver's "lock" mutex, which
is used in far more contexts, but in the specifics of the "dns_resolver_prime"
and "prime_done" it was only used to protect "primefetch" and "priming" attributes,
which are not used in any of the other critical sections protected by the same lock,
thus having zero dependency on those variables.
Both clang-tidy and uncrustify chokes on statement like this:

This commit uses a very simple semantic patch (below) to add braces around such

Also disable the semantic patch as the code needs tweaks here and there because
some destroy functions might not destroy the object and return early if the
object is still in use.
Found by LGTM.com (see below for description), and while it should not
happen as EDNS OPT RDLEN is uint16_t, the fix is easy. A little bit
of cleanup is included too.

FCTX_ATTR_SHUTTINGDOWN needs to be set and tested while holding the node
lock but the rest of the attributes don't as they are task locked. Making
fctx->attributes atomic allows both behaviours without races.
This prevents races on fctx->client whenever a new fetch joins a existing
fetch (by calling fctx_join) as it is now invariant for the active life of
fctx.
The dns_adb_beginudpfetch() is called only for UDP queries, but
the dns_adb_endudpfetch() is called for all queries, including
TCP. This messages the quota counting in adb.c.
If a TCP connection fails while attempting to send a query to a server,
the fetch context will be restarted without marking the target server as
a bad one. If this happens for a server which:
- was already marked with the DNS_FETCHOPT_EDNS512 flag,
- responds to EDNS queries with the UDP payload size set to 512 bytes,
- does not send response packets larger than 512 bytes,
and the response for the query being sent is larger than 512 byes, then
named will pointlessly alternate between sending UDP queries with EDNS
UDP payload size set to 512 bytes (which are responded to with truncated
answers) and TCP connections until the fetch context retry limit is
reached. Prevent such query loops by marking the server as bad for a
given fetch context if the advertised EDNS UDP payload size for that
server gets reduced to 512 bytes and it is impossible to reach it using
TCP.
This commit was done by hand to add the RUNTIME_CHECK() around stray
dns_name_copy() calls with NULL as third argument. This covers the edge cases
that doesn't make sense to write a semantic patch since the usage pattern was
unique or almost unique.
This second commit uses second semantic patch to replace the calls to
dns_name_copy() with NULL as third argument where the result was stored in a
isc_result_t variable. As the dns_name_copy(..., NULL) cannot fail gracefully
when the third argument is NULL, it was just a bunch of dead code.
Couple of manual tweaks (removing dead labels and unused variables) were
manually applied on top of the semantic patch.
This commit add RUNTIME_CHECK() around all simple dns_name_copy() calls where
the third argument is NULL using the semantic patch from the previous commit.
isc_event_allocate() calls isc_mem_get() to allocate the event structure. As
isc_mem_get() cannot fail softly (e.g. it never returns NULL), the
isc_event_allocate() cannot return NULL, hence we remove the (ret == NULL)
handling blocks using the semantic patch from the previous commit.
Commit 9da902a201b6d0e1bdbac0af067a59bb0a489c9c removed locking around
the fctx_decreference() call inside resume_dslookup(). This allows
fctx_unlink() to be called without the bucket lock being held, which
must never happen. Ensure the bucket lock is held by resume_dslookup()
before it calls fctx_decreference().
1. Restore locking in the fctx_decreference() code, because the insides of the
function needs to be protected when fctx->references drops to 0.
2. Restore locking in the dns_resolver_attach() code, because two variables are
accessed at the same time and there's slight chance of data race.
Although the struct dns_resolver.exiting member is protected by stdatomics, we
actually need to wait for whole dns_resolver_shutdown() to finish before
destroying the resolver object. Otherwise, there would be a data race and some
fctx objects might not be destroyed yet at the time we tear down the
dns_resolver object.
This commit changes the BIND cookie algorithms to match
draft-sury-toorop-dnsop-server-cookies-00. Namely, it changes the Client Cookie
algorithm to use SipHash 2-4, adds the new Server Cookie algorithm using SipHash
2-4, and changes the default for the Server Cookie algorithm to be siphash24.
Add siphash24 cookie algorithm, and make it keep legacy aes as
qname minimization, even in relaxed mode, can fail on
some very broken domains. In relaxed mode, instead of
asking for "foo.bar NS" ask for "_.foo.bar A" to either
get a delegation or NXDOMAIN. It will require more queries
than regular mode for proper NXDOMAINs.
