support for Infiniband in the future. This patch also corrects
some issues we found in the socket code. [ISC-Bugs #24245]
code to the DDNS handling. This code included a bug that caused it
to attempt to dereference a NULL pointer and eventually segfault.
While reviewing the code as we addressed this problem, we determined
that some of the updates to the lease structures would not work as
planned since the structures being updated were in the process of
being freed: these updates were removed. In addition we removed an
incorrect call to the DDNS removal function that could cause a failure
during the removal of DDNS information from the DNS server.
Thanks to Jasper Jongmans for reporting this issue.

CVE: CVE-2011-4868
processing if the configuration included overlapping pools or
multiple fixed-address entries for a single address. This issue
affected both IPv4 and IPv6. The fix allows a server to detect such
conditions, provides the user with extra information and recommended
steps to fix the problem. If the user enables the appropriate option
in site.h then server will be terminated
configured during compilation time. Even though RFC2132 does not allow
to store more than one domain in domain-name option, such behavior is
now enabled by default, but this may change some time in the future.
See ACCEPT_LIST_IN_DOMAIN_NAME define in includes/site.h.

has elapsed (default 25%), the server will reuse the allocated lease
(provide a lease within the currently allocated lease-time) rather
than extend or renew the lease. This absolves the server of needing
to perform an fsync() operation on the lease database before reply,
which improves performance. [ISC-Bugs #22228]
- set initial delay to 0 to speed up client start
- added 'initial-delay' parameter to possibly revert to old behavior
- better handling of very short (1 or 2s) leases
- client lease records are recorded at most once every 15 seconds
- ICMP ping-check is now timed more precisely
- Servers that don't offer lease-time are now black-listed
[ISC-Bugs #19660]
21518 we changed the print routines to always display time values
as a hex list. This had a side effect of printing all data strings
as a hex list. We shall investigate other ways of displaying time
values more usefully. [ISC-Bugs #22626]
[ISC-Bugs #20418] - Some systems don't support the "%s" argument to
strftime, paste together the same string using mktime instead.
[ISC-Bugs #19596] - When parsing iaid values accept printable
characters.
[ISC-Bugs #21585] - Always print time values in omshell as hex
instead of ascii if the values happen to be printable characters.

advised that these sources were contributed, and do not yet meet the
high standards we place on production sources we include by default.
As a result, the LDAP features are only included by using a compile-time
option which defaults off, and if you enable it you do so under your
own recognizance. We will be improving this software over time.

includes support for the new DDNS code. This patch also deletes some dead
code and neatens up some log messages.
which permits a DHCP server operating in communications-interrupted state
to 'rewind' a lease to the state most recently transmitted to its peer,
greatly increasing a server's endurance in communications-interrupted.
This is supported using a new 'rewind state' record on the dhcpd.leases
entry for each lease. [ISC-Bugs #19601]

This parameter is not generally safe, and by default is disabled, so
please carefully review the documentation of this parameter in the

- A check for the local flavor of IFNAMSIZ had a broken 'else' condition,
that probably still resulted in the correct behaviour (but wouldn't use
a larger defined value provided by the host OS). [ISC-Bugs #19434]

not be applied to clients addressed within that network was repaired.
- When configuring a "subnet {}" or "subnet6 {}" without an explicit
shared-network enclosing it, the DHCP software would synthesize a
shared-network to contain the subnet. However, all configuration
parameters within the subnet more intuitively belong "to any client
on that interface", or rather the synthesized shared-network. So,
when a shared-network is synthesized, it is used to contain the
configuration present inside the subnet {} clause. This means that
the configuration will be valid for all clients on that network, not
just those addressed out of the stated subnet. If you intended the
opposite, the workaround is to explicitly configure an empty
shared-network.
- A bug was fixed where Information-Request processing was not sourcing
configured option values.
- A warning was added since the DHCPv6 processing software does not yet
support class statements.

released in bursts after single fsync() events when the upper limit is
reached or if the receiving sockets go dry. The practical upshot is
that fsync-coupled server performance is now multiplicitively increased.
The default delayed ack limit is 28. Thanks entirely to a patch from
Christof Chen.
