- "hook" is now used only for hook points and hook actions
- the "hook" statement in named.conf is now "plugin"
- ns_module and ns_modlist are now ns_plugin and ns_plugins
- ns_module_load is renamed ns_plugin_register
- the mandatory functions in plugin modules (hook_register,
hook_check, hook_version, hook_destroy) have been renamed
- temporary kluge! in this version, for testing purposes,
named always searches for a filter-aaaa module at /tmp/filter-aaaa.so.
this enables the filter-aaaa system test to run even though the
code to configure hooks in named.conf hasn't been written yet.
- filter-aaaa-on-v4, filter-aaaa-on-v6 and the filter-aaaa ACL are
still configured in the view as they were before, not in the hook.
- move hooks.h to public include directory
- ns_hooktable_init() initializes a hook table. if NULL is passed in, it
initializes the global hook table
- ns_hooktable_save() saves a pointer to the current global hook table.
- ns_hooktable_reset() replaces the global hook table with different
one
- ns_hook_add() adds hooks at specified hook points in a hook table (or
the global hook table if the specified table is NULL)
- load and unload functions support dlopen() of hook modules (this is
adapted from dyndb and not yet functional)
- began adding new hook points to query.c
Apply various fixes and tweaks to Python configuration logic implemented
in the "configure" script:
- Prevent PYTHON_INSTALL_DIR, which holds the value passed to the
--with-python-install-dir option, from being set to "unspec" by
default as this breaks installing Python modules when the
--with-python-install-dir option is not used.
- Make the --with-python-install-dir option also work when the Python
interpreter is specified explicitly (using --with-python=<...>).
- Remove dnspython dependency which was erroneously introduced in
commit 31b0dc1f204d8f7520145f21e8ea46d1466412a7: no installed Python
module depends on dnspython, it is only used in system tests, for
which dedicated scripts exist that check whether dnspython is
available and act accordingly.
- Improve contents and placement of error messages.
- Reduce duplication of code checking Python dependencies.
- Use Autoconf macros AS_CASE() and AS_IF() instead of plain shell
code.
- Update comments. Capitalize the word "Python" when referring to the
language itself rather than a specific executable.
While implementing the new unit testing framework cmocka, it was found that the
BIND 9 code doesn't compile when assertions are disabled or replaced with any
function (such as mock_assert() from cmocka unit testing framework) that's not
directly recognized as assertion by the compiler.
This made the compiler to complain about blocks of code that was recognized as
unreachable before, but now it isn't.
The changes in this commit include:
* assigns default values to couple of local variables,
* moves some return statements around INSIST assertions,
* adds __builtin_unreachable(); annotations after some INSIST assertions,
* fixes one broken assertion (= instead of ==)
