Previously, the number of RR types for a single owner name was limited
only by the maximum number of the types (64k). As the data structure
that holds the RR types for the database node is just a linked list, and
there are places where we just walk through the whole list (again and
again), adding a large number of RR types for a single owner named with
would slow down processing of such name (database node).
Add a configurable limit to cap the number of the RR types for a single
owner. This is enforced at the database (rbtdb, qpzone, qpcache) level
and configured with new max-types-per-name configuration option that
can be configured globally, per-view and per-zone.
Previously, the number of RRs in the RRSets were internally unlimited.
As the data structure that holds the RRs is just a linked list, and
there are places where we just walk through all of the RRs, adding an
RRSet with huge number of RRs inside would slow down processing of said
RRSets.
Add a configurable limit to cap the number of the RRs in a single RRSet.
This is enforced at the database (rbtdb, qpzone, qpcache) level and
configured with new max-records-per-type configuration option that can
be configured globally, per-view and per-zone.
A 'tls' statement can be specified both for individual addresses
and for the whole list (as a default value when an individual
address doesn't have its own 'tls' set), just as it was done
before for the 'port' value.
Create a new function 'print_rawqstring()' to print a string residing
in a 'isc_textregion_t' type parameter.
Create a new function 'copy_string()' to copy a string from a
'cfg_obj_t' object into a 'isc_textregion_t'.
DSCP has not been fully working since the network manager was
introduced in 9.16, and has been completely broken since 9.18.
This seems to have caused very few difficulties for anyone,
so we have now marked it as obsolete and removed the
implementation.
To ensure that old config files don't fail, the code to parse
dscp key-value pairs is still present, but a warning is logged
that the feature is obsolete and should not be used. Nothing is
done with configured values, and there is no longer any
range checking.
Contrary to what the documentation states, the "server-addresses"
static-stub zone option does not accept custom port numbers. Fix the
configuration type used by the "server-addresses" option to ensure
documentation matches source code. Remove a check_zoneconf() test which
is unnecessary with this fix in place.
- added new 'validate-except' option, which configures an NTA with
expiry of 0xffffffff. NTAs with that value in the expiry field do not
expire, are are not written out when saving the NTA table and are not
dumped by rndc secroots
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.
