runall.sh was mainly used on Windows and as it's support was removed
from the "main" branch the script is not needed anymore.
Also, remove bin/tests/system/README text on running multiple system
test suites simultaneously with runall.sh as that support was not
present in the script anyway.
This commit converts the license handling to adhere to the REUSE
specification. It specifically:
1. Adds used licnses to LICENSES/ directory
2. Add "isc" template for adding the copyright boilerplate
3. Changes all source files to include copyright and SPDX license
header, this includes all the C sources, documentation, zone files,
configuration files. There are notes in the doc/dev/copyrights file
on how to add correct headers to the new files.
4. Handle the rest that can't be modified via .reuse/dep5 file. The
binary (or otherwise unmodifiable) files could have license places
next to them in <foo>.license file, but this would lead to cluttered
repository and most of the files handled in the .reuse/dep5 file are
system test files.
Add a simple stats unit test that tests the existing library functions
isc_stats_ncounters, isc_stats_increment, isc_stats_decrement,
isc_stats_set, and isc_stats_update_if_greater.
We should drop the HISTORY file because it's confusing and the same
information is covered by the release notes for .0 releases (or at
least they should be).
Remove references to the HISTORY file, update the README to tell
people go look somewhere else.
This was written down in the outdated doc/dev/release documentation.
Since the rest of that file can go, add these steps to a separate file
and update it to current standards (e.g. use git commands).
The util/, doc/design/, and doc/dev/ directories included couple of
tools or documents there were completely outdated because they either
refered the the VCS we no longer use (cvs) or described processes that
have been redesigned and they are documented elsewhere.
The Windows support has been completely removed from the source tree
and BIND 9 now no longer supports native compilation on Windows.
We might consider reviewing mingw-w64 port if contributed by external
party, but no development efforts will be put into making BIND 9 compile
and run on Windows again.
This commit changes the taskmgr to run the individual tasks on the
netmgr internal workers. While an effort has been put into keeping the
taskmgr interface intact, couple of changes have been made:
* The taskmgr has no concept of universal privileged mode - rather the
tasks are either privileged or unprivileged (normal). The privileged
tasks are run as a first thing when the netmgr is unpaused. There
are now four different queues in in the netmgr:
1. priority queue - netievent on the priority queue are run even when
the taskmgr enter exclusive mode and netmgr is paused. This is
needed to properly start listening on the interfaces, free
resources and resume.
2. privileged task queue - only privileged tasks are queued here and
this is the first queue that gets processed when network manager
is unpaused using isc_nm_resume(). All netmgr workers need to
clean the privileged task queue before they all proceed normal
operation. Both task queues are processed when the workers are
finished.
3. task queue - only (traditional) task are scheduled here and this
queue along with privileged task queues are process when the
netmgr workers are finishing. This is needed to process the task
shutdown events.
4. normal queue - this is the queue with netmgr events, e.g. reading,
sending, callbacks and pretty much everything is processed here.
* The isc_taskmgr_create() now requires initialized netmgr (isc_nm_t)
object.
* The isc_nm_destroy() function now waits for indefinite time, but it
will print out the active objects when in tracing mode
(-DNETMGR_TRACE=1 and -DNETMGR_TRACE_VERBOSE=1), the netmgr has been
made a little bit more asynchronous and it might take longer time to
shutdown all the active networking connections.
* Previously, the isc_nm_stoplistening() was a synchronous operation.
This has been changed and the isc_nm_stoplistening() just schedules
the child sockets to stop listening and exits. This was needed to
prevent a deadlock as the the (traditional) tasks are now executed on
the netmgr threads.
* The socket selection logic in isc__nm_udp_send() was flawed, but
fortunatelly, it was broken, so we never hit the problem where we
created uvreq_t on a socket from nmhandle_t, but then a different
socket could be picked up and then we were trying to run the send
callback on a socket that had different threadid than currently
running.
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.
With the introduction of dnssec-policy, the aforementioned tools were
either rendered obsolete, or they will be replaced with dnssec-policy
based tools. Remove the tools and the requirement to have Python
installed. Python 3 is still being used for tests, so keep the autoconf
test, but make it much simpler.
The isc_mem API now crashes on memory allocation failure, and this is
the next commit in series to cleanup the code that could fail before,
but cannot fail now, e.g. isc_result_t return type has been changed to
void for the isc_log API functions that could only return ISC_R_SUCCESS.
Previously, the isc_mem_create() and isc_mem_createx() functions took `max_size`
and `target_size` as first two arguments. Those values were never used in the
BIND 9 code. The refactoring removes those arguments and let BIND 9 always use
the default values.
Previously, the isc_mem_create() and isc_mem_createx() functions could have
failed because of failed memory allocation. As this was no longer true and the
functions have always returned ISC_R_SUCCESS, the have been refactored to return
void.
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.
