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.
When updating the statistics for RRset types, if a header is marked
stale or ancient, the appropriate statistic counters are decremented,
then incremented.
Also fix some out of date comments.
This change makes rndc dumpdb correctly print the "; stale" line.
It also provides extra information on how long this data may still
be served to clients (in other words how long the stale RRset may
still be used).
- the goal of this change is for AAAA filtering to be fully contained
in the query logic, and implemented at discrete points that can be
replaced with hook callouts later on.
- the new code may be slightly less efficient than the old filter-aaaa
implementation, but maximum efficiency was never a priority for AAAA
filtering anyway.
- we now use the rdataset RENDERED attribute to indicate that an AAAA
rdataset should not be included when rendering the message. (this
flag was originally meant to indicate that an rdataset has already
been rendered and should not be repeated, but it can also be used to
prevent rendering in the first place.)
- the DNS_MESSAGERENDER_FILTER_AAAA, NS_CLIENTATTR_FILTER_AAAA,
and DNS_RDATASETGLUE_FILTERAAAA flags are all now unnecessary and
have been removed.
This properly orders clearing the freed pointer and calling isc_refcount_destroy
as early as possible to have ability to put proper memory barrier when cleaning
up reference counting.
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.
- this was a compile time option to disable the use of a hash table in
the RBTDB. the code path without the hash table was buggy and
untested, and unlikely to be needed by anyone anyway.
check_stale_header() fails to update the pointer to the previous header
while processing rdataset headers eligible for serve-stale, thus
enabling rdataset headers to be leaked (i.e. disassociated from a node
and left on the relevant TTL heap) while iterating through a node. This
can lead to several different assertion failures. Add the missing
pointer update.
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.
