zone.c:integrity_checks() acquires a read lock while iterating the
zone database, and calls zone_check_mx() which acquires another
read lock. If another thread tries to acquire a write lock in the
meantime, it can deadlock. Calling dns_dbiterator_pause() to release
the first read lock prevents this.
check for type "master" / "slave" at the same time as checking
for "primary" / "secondary" as we step through the maps.
Checking "primary" then "master" or "master" then "primary" does
not work as the synomym is not checked for to stop the search.
Similarly with "secondary" and "slave".
On TCPDNS/TLSDNS read callback, the socket buffer could be reallocated
if the received contents would be larger than the buffer. The existing
code would not preserve the contents of the existing buffer which lead
to the loss of the already received data.
This commit changes the isc_mem_put()+isc_mem_get() with isc_mem_reget()
to preserve the existing contents of the socket buffer.
The netmgr, has an internal cache for freed active handles. This cache
was allocated using isc_mem_allocate()/isc_mem_free() API because it was
simpler to reallocate the cache when we needed to grow it. The new
isc_mem_reget() function could be used here reducing the need to use
isc_mem_allocate() API which is tad bit slower than isc_mem_get() API.
Previously, we cannot use isc_mem_reallocate() for growing the buffer
dynamically, because the memory was allocated using the
isc_mem_get()/isc_mem_put() API. With the introduction of the
isc_mem_reget() function, we can use grow/shrink the memory directly
without always moving the memory around as the allocator might have
reserved some extra space after the initial allocation.
Previously, the zero-sized allocations would return NULL pointer and the
caller had to make sure to not dereference such pointer. The C standard
defines the zero-sized calls to malloc() as implementation specific and
jemalloc mallocx() with zero size would be undefined behaviour. This
complicated the code as it had to handle such cases in a special manner
in all allocator and deallocator functions.
Now, for realloc(), the situation is even more complicated. In C
standard up to C11, the behavior would be implementation defined, and
actually some implementation would free to orig ptr and some would not.
Since C17 (via DR400) would deprecate such usage and since C23, the
behaviour would be undefined.
This commits changes helper mem_get(), mem_put() and mem_realloc()
functions to grow the zero-allocation from 0 to sizeof(void *).
This way we get a predicable behaviour that all the allocations will
always return valid pointer.
The isc_mem_get() and isc_mem_put() functions are leaving the memory
allocation size tracking to the users of the API, while
isc_mem_allocate() and isc_mem_free() would track the sizes internally.
This allowed to have isc_mem_rellocate() to manipulate the memory
allocations by the later set, but not the former set of the functions.
This commit introduces isc_mem_reget(ctx, old_ptr, old_size, new_size)
function that operates on the memory allocations with external size
tracking completing the API.
Previously, the Makefiles for mysql and mysqldyn DLZ modules were
generated from autoconf to get CFLAGS and LIBS for MariaDB or MySQL
libraries. The static Makefiles uses a simpler method by calling
`mysql_config` directly from the Makefile.
The old-style DLZ drivers were already marked as no longer actively
maintained and expected to be removed eventually. With the new automake
build system, the old-style DLZ drivers were not updated, and instead of
putting an effort into something that's not being maintained, let's
rather remove the unmaintained code.
Closes: #2814
The map masterfile-format is very fragile and it needs API bump every
time a RBTDB data structures changes. Also while testing it, we found
out that files larger than 2GB weren't loading and nobody noticed, and
loading many map files were also failing (subject to kernel limits).
Thus we are marking the masterfile-format type 'map' as deprecated and
to be removed in the next stable BIND 9 release.
The Debian 10 (buster) Docker image, which GitLab CI uses for building
documentation, currently contains the following package versions:
- Sphinx 4.2.0
- sphinx-rtd-theme 1.0.0
- docutils 0.17.1
Regenerate the man pages to match contents produced in a Sphinx
environment using the above package versions. This is necessary to
prevent the "docs" GitLab CI job from failing.
