It is simply called "compression" now, without any qualifiers. Also,
improve some variable names in dns_name_towire2() so they are not two
letter abbreviations for global something.
It's wasteful to use 20 bytes and a pointer indirection to represent
two bits of information, so turn the struct into an enum. And change
the names of the enumeration constants to make the intent more clear.
This change introduces some inline functions into another header,
which confuses `gcovr` when it is trying to collect code coverage
statistics. So, in the CI job, copy more header files into a directory
where `gcovr` looks for them.
The aim is to get rid of the obsolete term "GLOBAL14" and instead just
refer to DNS name compression.
This is mostly mechanically renaming
from dns_(de)compress_(get|set)methods()
to dns_(de)compress_(get|set)permitted()
and replacing the related enum by a simple flag, because compression
is either on or off.
There was a proposal in the late 1990s that it might, but it turned
out to be unworkable. See RFC 6891, Extension Mechanisms for
DNS (EDNS(0)), section 5, Extended Label Types.
The remnants of the code that supported this in BIND are redundant.
Historically, the inline keyword was a strong suggestion to the compiler
that it should inline the function marked inline. As compilers became
better at optimising, this functionality has receded, and using inline
as a suggestion to inline a function is obsolete. The compiler will
happily ignore it and inline something else entirely if it finds that's
a better optimisation.
Therefore, remove all the occurences of the inline keyword with static
functions inside single compilation unit and leave the decision whether
to inline a function or not entirely on the compiler
NOTE: We keep the usage the inline keyword when the purpose is to change
the linkage behaviour.
This commit converts the license handling to adhere to the REUSE
specification. It specifically:
1. Adds used licnses to LICENSES/ directory
2. Add "isc" template for adding the copyright boilerplate
3. Changes all source files to include copyright and SPDX license
header, this includes all the C sources, documentation, zone files,
configuration files. There are notes in the doc/dev/copyrights file
on how to add correct headers to the new files.
4. Handle the rest that can't be modified via .reuse/dep5 file. The
binary (or otherwise unmodifiable) files could have license places
next to them in <foo>.license file, but this would lead to cluttered
repository and most of the files handled in the .reuse/dep5 file are
system test files.
The __builtin_expect() can be used to provide the compiler with branch
prediction information. The Gcc manual says[1] on the subject:
In general, you should prefer to use actual profile feedback for
this (-fprofile-arcs), as programmers are notoriously bad at
predicting how their programs actually perform.
Stop using __builtin_expect() and ISC_LIKELY() and ISC_UNLIKELY() macros
to provide the branch prediction information as the performance testing
shows that named performs better when the __builtin_expect() is not
being used.

Remove the dynamic registration of result codes. Convert isc_result_t
from unsigned + #defines into 32-bit enum type in grand unified
<isc/result.h> header. Keep the existing values of the result codes
even at the expense of the description and identifier tables being
unnecessary large.
Additionally, add couple of:
switch (result) {
[...]
default:
break;
}
statements where compiler now complains about missing enum values in the
switch statement.
- 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
4184. [bug] Fixed a possible memory leak in name compression
when rendering long messages. (Also, improved
wire_test for testing such messages.) [RT #40375]
