The 'new default' option was introduced in 2002 to signal that a
default option had changed its default value, in this specific case
the value for 'auth-nxdomain'. However, this default has been unchanged
for 18 years now, and logging that the default has changed does not
have significant value nowadays.
This is also a good example that the clause flag 'new default' is
broken: it is easy to get out of date.
It is also easy to forget, because we have changed the default value
for 'max-stale-ttl' and haven't been flagging it with 'new default'
Also, if the operator cares for a specific value it should set it
explicitly. Using the default is telling the software: use whatever
you think is best, and this may change over time. Default value
changes should be mentioned in the release note, but do not require
further special treatment.
The clause flags 'not implented' and 'not implemented yet' are the
same as 'obsoleted' when it comes to behavior. These options will
now be treated similar as obsoleted (the idea being that if an
option is implemented it should be functional).
The new options for DoT are new options and rather than flagging them
obsolete, they should have been flagged as experimental, signalling
that these options are subject to change in the future.
Both clang-tidy and uncrustify chokes on statement like this:

The keyword 'unlimited' can be used instead of PT0S which means the
same but is more comprehensible for users.
Also fix some redundant "none" parameters in the kasp test.
The ttlval configuration types are replaced by duration configuration
types. The duration is an ISO 8601 duration that is going to be used
for DNSSEC key timings such as key lifetimes, signature resign
intervals and refresh periods, etc. But it is also still allowed to
use the BIND ttlval ways of configuring intervals (number plus
optional unit).
A duration is stored as an array of 7 different time parts.
A duration can either be expressed in weeks, or in a combination of
the other datetime indicators.
Add several unit tests to ensure the correct value is parsed given
different string values.
- this required modification to the code that generates grammar text for
the documentation, because the "dnssec-lookaside" option spanned more
than one line in doc/misc/options, so grepping out only the lines
marked "// obsolete" didn't remove the whole option. this commit adds
an option to cfg_test to print named.conf clauses only if they don't
have the obsolete, ancient, test-only, or not-yet-implemented flags
set.
Adds a new option to named-checkconf, -i. If set, named-checkconf
will not warn you about deprecated options. This allows people
to use named-checkconf in automated deployment precoesses where an
operator only cares if their conf is valid, even if it is not optimal.
This was added as a request as part of introducing a policy on
removing named.conf options.
- revise mapping of search terms to database types to match the
GeoIP2 schemas.
- open GeoIP2 databases when starting up; close when shutting down.
- clarify the logged error message when an unknown database type
is configured.
- add new geoip ACL subtypes to support searching for continent in
country databases.
- map geoip ACL subtypes to specific MMDB database queries.
- perform MMDB lookups based on subtype, saving state between
queries so repeated lookups for the same address aren't necessary.
- options that were flagged as obsolete or not implemented in 9.0.0
are now flagged as "ancient", and are a fatal error
- the ARM has been updated to remove these, along with other
obsolete descriptions of BIND 8 behavior
- the log message for obsolete options explicitly recommends removal
Add a new libisccfg function, cfg_pluginlist_foreach(), which allows an
arbitrary callback to be invoked for every "plugin" stanza present in a
configuration object. Use this function for both loading plugins and
checking their configuration in order to reduce duplication of
configuration processing code present in bin/named/server.c and
lib/bind9/check.c.
- 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.
