Adds a new option to named-checkconf, -i. If set, named-checkconf
will not warn you about deprecated options. This allows people
to use named-checkconf in automated deployment precoesses where an
operator only cares if their conf is valid, even if it is not optimal.
This was added as a request as part of introducing a policy on
removing named.conf options.
- revise mapping of search terms to database types to match the
GeoIP2 schemas.
- open GeoIP2 databases when starting up; close when shutting down.
- clarify the logged error message when an unknown database type
is configured.
- add new geoip ACL subtypes to support searching for continent in
country databases.
- map geoip ACL subtypes to specific MMDB database queries.
- perform MMDB lookups based on subtype, saving state between
queries so repeated lookups for the same address aren't necessary.
- options that were flagged as obsolete or not implemented in 9.0.0
are now flagged as "ancient", and are a fatal error
- the ARM has been updated to remove these, along with other
obsolete descriptions of BIND 8 behavior
- the log message for obsolete options explicitly recommends removal
Add a new libisccfg function, cfg_pluginlist_foreach(), which allows an
arbitrary callback to be invoked for every "plugin" stanza present in a
configuration object. Use this function for both loading plugins and
checking their configuration in order to reduce duplication of
configuration processing code present in bin/named/server.c and
lib/bind9/check.c.
- make some cfg-parsing functions global so they can be run
from filter-aaaa.so
- add filter-aaaa options to the hook module's parser
- mark filter-aaaa options in named.conf as obsolete, remove
from named and checkconf, and update the filter-aaaa test not to
use checkconf anymore
- remove filter-aaaa-related struct members from dns_view
- allow multiple "hook" statements at global or view level
- add "optional bracketed text" type for optional parameter list
- load hook module from specified path rather than hardcoded path
- add a hooktable pointer (and a callback for freeing it) to the
view structure
- change the hooktable functions so they no longer update ns__hook_table
by default, and modify PROCESS_HOOK so it uses the view hooktable, if
set, rather than ns__hook_table. (ns__hook_table is retained for
use by unit tests.)
- update the filter-aaaa system test to load filter-aaaa.so
- add a prereq script to check for dlopen support before running
the filter-aaaa system test
not yet done:
- configuration parameters are not being passed to the filter-aaaa
module; the filter-aaaa ACL and filter-aaaa-on-{v4,v6} settings are
still stored in dns_view
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.
4873. [doc] Grammars for named.conf included in the ARM are now
automatically generated by the configuration parser
itself. As a side effect of the work needed to
separate zone type grammars from each other, this
also makes checking of zone statements in
named-checkconf more correct and consistent.
[RT #36957]
4224. [func] Added support for "dyndb", a new interface for loading
zone data from an external database, developed by
Red Hat for the FreeIPA project.
DynDB drivers fully implement the BIND database
API, and are capable of significantly better
performance and functionality than DLZ drivers,
while taking advantage of advanced database
features not available in BIND such as multi-master
replication.
Thanks to Adam Tkac and Petr Spacek of Red Hat.
