- "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
- use a per-view module list instead of global hook_modules
- create an 'instance' pointer when registering modules, store it in
the module structure, and use it as action_data when calling
hook functions - this enables multiple module instances to be set
up in parallel
- also some nomenclature changes and cleanup
- 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.
If transferring or loading a mirror zone fails, resolution should still
succeed by means of falling back to regular recursive queries.
Currently, though, if a slave zone is present in the zone table and not
loaded, a SERVFAIL response is generated. Thus, mirror zones need
special handling in this regard.
Add a new dns_zt_find() flag, DNS_ZTFIND_MIRROR, and set it every time a
domain name is looked up rather than a zone itself. Handle that flag in
dns_zt_find() in such a way that a mirror zone which is expired or not
yet loaded is ignored when looking up domain names, but still possible
to find when the caller wants to know whether the zone is configured.
This causes a fallback to recursion when mirror zone data is unavailable
without making unloaded mirror zones invisible to code checking a zone's
existence.
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.

4664. [func] Add a "glue-cache" option to enable or disable the
glue cache. The default is "no" to reduce memory
usage, but enabling this option will improve
performance in delegation-heavy zones. [RT #45125]
4610. [func] The "new-zones-directory" option specifies the
location of NZF or NZD files for storing
configuration of zones added by "rndc addzone".

(RFC 7828). [RT #42126]
4548. [func] Added support for the EDNS Padding option (RFC 7830).
