Remove the complicated mechanism that could be (in theory) used by
external libraries to register new categories and modules with
statically defined lists in <isc/log.h>. This is similar to what we
have done for <isc/result.h> result codes. All the libraries are now
internal to BIND 9, so we don't need to provide a mechanism to register
extra categories and modules.
Add isc_logconfig_get() function to get the current logconfig and use
the getter to replace most of the little dancing around setting up
logging in the tools. Thus:
isc_log_create(mctx, &lctx, &logconfig);
isc_log_setcontext(lctx);
dns_log_setcontext(lctx);
...
...use lcfg...
...
isc_log_destroy();
is now only:
logconfig = isc_logconfig_get(lctx);
...use lcfg...
For thread-safety, isc_logconfig_get() should be surrounded by RCU read
lock, but since we never use isc_logconfig_get() in threaded context,
the only place where it is actually used (but not really needed) is
named_log_init().
MAX_RESTARTS is no longer hard-coded; ns_server_setmaxrestarts()
and dns_client_setmaxrestarts() can now be used to modify the
max-restarts value at runtime. in both cases, the default is 11.
the number of steps that can be followed in a CNAME chain
before terminating the lookup has been reduced from 16 to 11.
(this is a hard-coded value, but will be made configurable later.)
dns_difftuple_create() could only return success, so change
its type to void and clean up all the calls to it.
other functions that only returned a result value because of it
have been cleaned up in the same way.
When automatic-interface-scan is disabled, the route socket was still
being opened. Add new API to connect / disconnect from the route socket
only as needed.
Additionally, move the block that disables periodic interface rescans to
a place where it actually have access to the configuration values.
Previously, the values were being checked before the configuration was
loaded.
Due to the maximum query restart limitation a long CNAME chain
it is cut after 16 queries but named still returns NOERROR.
Return SERVFAIL instead and the partial answer.
When sending fails, the ns__client_request() would not reset the
connection and continue as nothing is happening. This comes from the
model that we don't care about failed UDP sends because datagrams are
unreliable anyway, but it greatly affects TCP connections with
keep-alive.
The worst case scenario is as follows:
1. the 3-way TCP handshake gets completed
2. the libuv calls the "uv_connection_cb" callback
3. the TCP connection gets queue because of the tcp-clients quota
4. the TCP client sends as many DNS messages as the buffers allow
5. the TCP connection gets dropped by the client due to the timeout
6. the TCP connection gets accepted by the server
7. the data already sent by the client gets read
8. all sending fails immediately because the TCP connection is dead
9. we consume all the data in the buffer in a very tight loop
As it doesn't make sense to trying to process more data on the TCP
connection when the sending is failing, drop the connection immediately
on the first sending error.
As ns_query_init() cannot fail now, remove the error paths, especially
in ns__client_setup() where we now don't have to care what to do with
the connection if setting up the client could fail. It couldn't fail
even before, but now it's formal.
Clear qctx->zversion when clearing qctx->zrdataset et al in
lib/ns/query.c:qctx_freedata. The uncleared pointer could lead to
an assertion failure if zone data needed to be re-saved which could
happen with stale data support enabled.
View matching on an incoming query checks the query's signature,
which can be a CPU-heavy task for a SIG(0)-signed message. Implement
an asynchronous mode of the view matching function which uses the
offloaded signature checking facilities, and use it for the incoming
queries.
In order to protect from a malicious DNS client that sends many
queries with a SIG(0)-signed message, add a quota of simultaneously
running SIG(0) checks.
This protection can only help when named is using more than one worker
threads. For example, if named is running with the '-n 4' option, and
'sig0checks-quota 2;' is used, then named will make sure to not use
more than 2 workers for the SIG(0) signature checks in parallel, thus
leaving the other workers to serve the remaining clients which do not
use SIG(0)-signed messages.
That limitation is going to change when SIG(0) signature checks are
offloaded to "slow" threads in a future commit.
The 'sig0checks-quota-exempt' ACL option can be used to exempt certain
clients from the quota requirements using their IP or network addresses.
The 'sig0checks-quota-maxwait-ms' option is used to define a maximum
amount of time for named to wait for a quota to appear. If during that
time no new quota becomes available, named will answer to the client
with DNS_R_REFUSED.
The changes in this MR prevent the memory used for sending the outgoing
TCP requests to spike so much. That strictly remove the extra need for
own memory context, and thus since we generally prefer simplicity,
remove the extra memory context with own jemalloc arenas just for the
outgoing send buffers.
As a single thread can process only one TCP send at the time, we don't
really need a memory pool for the TCP buffers, but it's enough to have
a single per-loop (client manager) static buffer that's being used to
assemble the DNS message and then it gets copied into own sending
buffer.
In the future, this should get optimized by exposing the uv_try API
from the network manager, and first try to send the message directly
and allocate the sending buffer only if we need to send the data
asynchronously.
Constantly allocating, reallocating and deallocating 64K TCP send
buffers by 'ns_client' instances takes too much CPU time.
There is an existing mechanism to reuse the ns_clent_t structure
associated with the handle using 'isc_nmhandle_getdata/_setdata'
(see ns_client_request()), but it doesn't work with TCP, because
every time ns_client_request() is called it gets a new handle even
for the same TCP connection, see the comments in
streamdns_on_complete_dnsmessage().
To solve the problem, we introduce an array of available (unused)
TCP buffers stored in ns_clientmgr_t structure so that a 'client'
working via TCP can have a chance to reuse one (if there is one)
instead of allocating a new one every time.
The high-water allows administrators to better tune the recursive
clients limit without having to to poll the statistics channel in high
rates to get this number.
Returning the value allows for better high-water tracking without
running into edge cases like the following:
0. The counter is at value X
1. Increment the value (X+1)
2. The value is decreased multiple times in another threads (X+1-Y)
3. Get the value (X+1-Y)
4. Update-if-greater misses the X+1 value which should have been the
high-water
An RPZ response's SOA record TTL is set to 1 instead of the SOA TTL,
a boolean value is passed on to query_addsoa, which is supposed to be
a TTL value. I don't see what value is appropriate to be used for
overriding, so we will pass UINT32_MAX.
Because some tests don't have a legtimate handle, provide a temporary
return early that should be fixed and removed before squashing. This
short circuiting is still correct until DoQ/DoH3 support is introduced.
GCC might fail to compile because it expects a return after UNREACHABLE.
It should ideally just work anyway since UNREACHABLE is either a
noreturn or UB (__builtin_unreachable / C23 unreachable).
Either way, it should be optimized almost always so the fallback is
free or basically free anyway when it isn't optimized out.
This commit ensures that worker threads are not sleeping (by using
select()) when '-T transferslowly/transferstuck' test options are
used. This commit converts synchronous implementation of the code into
an asynchronous one based on timers.
Use the (1 << N) form for defining the flags, in order to avoid
errors like the one fixed in the previous commit.
Also convert the definitions to an enum, as done in some of our
recent refactoring work.
The DNS_GETDB_STALEFIRST flag is defined as 0x0C, which is the
combination of the DNS_GETDB_PARTIAL (0x04) and the
DNS_GETDB_IGNOREACL (0x08) flags (0x04 | 0x08 == 0x0C) , which is
an obvious error.
All the flags should be power of two, so they don't interfere with
each other. Fix the DNS_GETDB_STALEFIRST flag by setting it to 0x10.
The older version of the code was reporting that listeners are going
to be of the same type after reconfiguration when switching from DoT
to HTTPS listener, making BIND abort its executions.
That was happening due to the flaw in logic due to which the code
could consider a current listener and a configuration for the new one
to be of the same type (DoT) even when the new listener entry is
explicitly marked as HTTP.
The checks for PROXY in between the configuration were masking that
behaviour, but when porting it to 9.18 (when there is no PROXY
support), the behaviour was exposed.
Now the code mirrors the logic in 'interface_setup()' closely (as it
was meant to).
When processing UPDATE request DNSKEY, CDNSKEY and CDS record that
are managed by named are filtered out. The log message has been
updated to report the actual type rather that just DNSKEY.
This commit ensures that listeners are recreated on reconfiguration in
the case when their type changes (or when PROXY protocol type changes,
too).
Previously, if a "listen-on" statement was modified to represent a
different transport, BIND would not pick-up the change on
reconfiguration if listener type changes (e.g. DoH -> DoT) for a given
interface address and port combination. This commit fixes that by
recreating the listener.
Initially, that worked for most of the new transports as we would
recreate listeners on each reconfiguration for DoH and DoT. But at
some point we changed that in such a way that listeners were not
recreated to avoid rebinding a port as on some platforms only root can
do that for port numbers <1000, making some ports binding possible
only on start-up. We chose to asynchronously update listener socket
settings (like TLS contexts, HTTP settings) instead.
Now, we both avoid recreating the sockets if unnecessary and recreate
listeners when listener type changes.
If we are in the process of looking for the A records as part of
dns64 processing and the server-stale timeout triggers, redo the
dns64 changes that had been made to the orignal qctx.
The wrong result value was being saved for resumption with
nxdomain-redirect when performing the fetch. This lead to an assert
when checking that RFC 1918 reverse queries where not leaking to
the global internet.
The main intention of PROXY protocol is to pass endpoints information
to a back-end server (in our case - BIND). That means that it is a
valid way to spoof endpoints information, as the addresses and ports
extracted from PROXYv2 headers, from the point of view of BIND, are
used instead of the real connection addresses.
Of course, an ability to easily spoof endpoints information can be
considered a security issue when used uncontrollably. To resolve that,
we introduce 'allow-proxy' and 'allow-proxy-on' ACL options. These are
the only ACL options in BIND that work with real PROXY connections
addresses, allowing a DNS server operator to specify from what clients
and on which interfaces he or she is willing to accept PROXY
headers. By default, for security reasons we do not allow to accept
them.
This commit extends "listen-on" statement with "proxy" options that
allows one to enable PROXYv2 support on a dedicated listener. It can
have the following values:
- "plain" to send PROXYv2 headers without encryption, even in the case
of encrypted transports.
- "encrypted" to send PROXYv2 headers encrypted right after the TLS
handshake.
The AES algorithm for DNS cookies was being kept for legacy reasons, and
it can be safely removed in the next major release. Remove both the AES
usage for DNS cookies and the AES implementation itself.
