Upon request from Mark, change the configuration of salt to salt
length.
Introduce a new function 'dns_zone_checknsec3aram' that can be used
upon reconfiguration to check if the existing NSEC3 parameters are
in sync with the configuration. If a salt is used that matches the
configured salt length, don't change the NSEC3 parameters.
Parse the configuration of tls objects into SSL_CTX* objects. Listen on
DoT if 'tls' option is setup in listen-on directive. Use DoT/DoH ports
for DoT/DoH.
This commit adds stub parser support and tests for:
- "tls" statement, specifying key and cert.
- an optional "tls" keyvalue in listen-on statements for DoT
configuration.
Documentation for these options has also been added to the ARM, but
needs further work.
No issues with the glue cache feature have been reported since its
introduction in BIND 9.12. As the rationale for introducing the
"glue-cache" option was to have a safety switch readily available in
case the glue cache turns out to cause problems, it is time to deprecate
the option. Glue cache will be permanently enabled in a future release,
at which point the "glue-cache" option will be made obsolete.
The current serve-stale implementation in BIND 9 stores all received
records in the cache for a max-stale-ttl interval (default 12 hours).
This allows DNS operators to turn the serve-stale answers in an event of
large authoritative DNS outage. The caching of the stale answers needs
to be enabled before the outage happens or the feature would be
otherwise useless.
The negative consequence of the default setting is the inevitable
cache-bloat that happens for every and each DNS operator running named.
In this MR, a new configuration option `stale-cache-enable` is
introduced that allows the operators to selectively enable or disable
the serve-stale feature of BIND 9 based on their decision.
The newly introduced option has been disabled by default,
e.g. serve-stale is disabled in the default configuration and has to be
enabled if required.
as "type primary" is preferred over "type master" now, it makes
sense to make "primaries" available as a synonym too.
added a correctness check to ensure "primaries" and "masters"
cannot both be used in the same zone.
The ARM and the manpages have been converted into Sphinx documentation
format.
Sphinx uses reStructuredText as its markup language, and many of its
strengths come from the power and straightforwardness of
reStructuredText and its parsing and translating suite, the Docutils.
The keyword 'unlimited' can be used instead of PT0S which means the
same but is more comprehensible for users.
Also fix some redundant "none" parameters in the kasp test.
- this required modification to the code that generates grammar text for
the documentation, because the "dnssec-lookaside" option spanned more
than one line in doc/misc/options, so grepping out only the lines
marked "// obsolete" didn't remove the whole option. this commit adds
an option to cfg_test to print named.conf clauses only if they don't
have the obsolete, ancient, test-only, or not-yet-implemented flags
set.
