Previously isc_thread_join() would return ISC_R_UNEXPECTED on a failure to
create new thread. All such occurences were caught and wrapped into assert
function at higher level. The function was simplified to assert directly in the
isc_thread_join() function and all caller level assertions were removed.

All unit tests define the UNIT_TESTING macro, which causes <cmocka.h> to
replace malloc(), calloc(), realloc(), and free() with its own functions
tracking memory allocations. In order for this not to break
compilation, the system header declaring the prototypes for these
standard functions must be included before <cmocka.h>.
Normally, these prototypes are only present in <stdlib.h>, so we make
sure it is included before <cmocka.h>. However, musl libc also defines
the prototypes for calloc() and free() in <sched.h>, which is included
by <pthread.h>, which is included e.g. by <isc/mutex.h>. Thus, unit
tests including "dnstest.h" (which includes <isc/mem.h>, which includes
<isc/mutex.h>) after <cmocka.h> will not compile with musl libc as for
these programs, <sched.h> will be included after <cmocka.h>.
Always including <cmocka.h> after all other header files is not a
feasible solution as that causes the mock assertion macros defined in
<isc/util.h> to mangle the contents of <cmocka.h>, thus breaking
compilation. We cannot really use the __noreturn__ or analyzer_noreturn
attributes with cmocka assertion functions because they do return if the
tested condition is true. The problem is that what BIND unit tests do
is incompatible with Clang Static Analyzer's assumptions: since we use
cmocka, our custom assertion handlers are present in a shared library
(i.e. it is the cmocka library that checks the assertion condition, not
a macro in unit test code). Redefining cmocka's assertion macros in
<isc/util.h> is an ugly hack to overcome that problem - unfortunately,
this is the only way we can think of to make Clang Static Analyzer
properly process unit test code. Giving up on Clang Static Analyzer
being able to properly process unit test code is not a satisfactory
solution.
Undefining _GNU_SOURCE for unit test code could work around the problem
(musl libc's <sched.h> only defines the prototypes for calloc() and
free() when _GNU_SOURCE is defined), but doing that could introduce
discrepancies for unit tests including entire *.c files, so it is also
not a good solution.
All in all, including <sched.h> before <cmocka.h> for all affected unit
tests seems to be the most benign way of working around this musl libc
quirk. While quite an ugly solution, it achieves our goals here, which
are to keep the benefit of proper static analysis of unit test code and
to fix compilation against musl libc.
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).
When two or more absolute, two-label names are added to a completely
empty RBT, an extra, empty node for the root name will be created due to
node splitting. check_tree() expects that, but the extra node will not
be created when just one name is added to a completely empty RBT. This
problem could be handled inside check_tree(), but that would introduce
unnecessary complexity into it since adding a single name will result in
a different node count for a completely empty RBT (node count will be 1)
and an RBT containing only an empty node for the root name, created due
to prior node splitting (node count will be 2). Thus, first explicitly
create a node for the root name to prevent rare check_tree() failures
caused by a single name being added in the first iteration of the
insert/remove loop.
This commit reverts the previous change to use system provided
entropy, as (SYS_)getrandom is very slow on Linux because it is
a syscall.
The change introduced in this commit adds a new call isc_nonce_buf
that uses CSPRNG from cryptographic library provider to generate
secure data that can be and must be used for generating nonces.
Example usage would be DNS cookies.
The isc_random() API has been changed to use fast PRNG that is not
cryptographically secure, but runs entirely in user space. Two
contestants have been considered xoroshiro family of the functions
by Villa&Blackman and PCG by O'Neill. After a consideration the
xoshiro128starstar function has been used as uint32_t random number
provider because it is very fast and has good enough properties
for our usage pattern.
The other change introduced in the commit is the more extensive usage
of isc_random_uniform in places where the usage pattern was
isc_random() % n to prevent modulo bias. For usage patterns where
only 16 or 8 bits are needed (DNS Message ID), the isc_random()
functions has been renamed to isc_random32(), and isc_random16() and
isc_random8() functions have been introduced by &-ing the
isc_random32() output with 0xffff and 0xff. Please note that the
functions that uses stripped down bit count doesn't pass our
NIST SP 800-22 based random test.
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.
No CHANGES entry was added as this commit mainly adds tests related
code.

Remove test for shortcut findnode()
The implementation was not included in this review branch, but the tests
erroneously made it through.
This functionality will be addressed in a different ticket (RT#35906).
