Mostly, several functions that take pointers as arguments, almost
always char * pointers, had those pointers qualified with "const".
Those that returned pointers to previously const-qualified arguments
had their return values qualified as const. Some structure members
were qualified as const to retain that attribute from the variables
from which they were assigned.
The macro DE_CONST was added to isc/util.h to deal with a handful of very
special places where something is qualified as const but really needs to have
its const qualifier removed.
Also cleaned up a few places where variable names clashed with reserved
identifiers. (Which mostly works fine, but strictly speaking is undefined
by the standard.)
Minor other ISC style cleanups.
dns_dispatch_create() no longer exists. dns_dispatch_createtcp()
and dns_dispatch_getudp() are the replacements. _createtcp() takes
a bound, connected TCP socket, while _getudp() will search for
a sharable UDP socket, and if found, attach to it and return a
pointer to it. If one is not found, it will create a udp socket,
bind it to a supplied local address, and create a new dispatcher
around it.
dns_dispatch_remove{request,response}() no longer take the dispatch
as an argument.
query-source can now be set per view.
The dispatch manager holds onto three memory pools, one for
allocating dispatchers from, one for events, and one for
requests/replies. The free list on these pools is hard-coded,
but set to 1024. This keeps us from having to dig into the
isc_mem_t the pools draw from as often.
dns_resolver_create() and dns_view_createresolver() require that
valid dispatchers be passed in; dispatchers are no longer created
for the caller.
that the number of seconds in an isc_time_t does not
exceed the range of a time_t, or return ISC_R_RANGE.
Similarly, isc_time_now(), isc_time_nowplusinterval(),
isc_time_add() and isc_time_subtract() now check the
range for overflow/underflow. In the case of
isc_time_subtract, this changed a calling requirement
(ie, something that could generate an assertion)
into merely a condition that returns an error result.
isc_time_add() and isc_time_subtract() were void-
valued before but now return isc_result_t.
The seconds member isc_time_t on Unix platforms was changed from time_t
to unsigned int.
unix/time.c now uses macros for nanoseconds per second, nanoseconds per
microsecond and microseconds per second to make sure that the right
number of zeros appears each place the constant is used.
unix/time.c functions which take initialized isc_(interval|time)_t arguments
INSIST() that the nanoseconds value is less than one full second.
unix/time.c's isc_time_microdiff was broken because it did multiplication and
addition with unsigned integers and attempted to set them a 64 bit int to
avoid overflow, but C's ints don't promote to 64 bits on machines that only
have 32 bit longs. Fixed.
Added all the pertinent documentation to time.h.
