1 adns (0.9) unstable; urgency=low
2
3 Bug fixes:
4 * Don't make _processany always kill the TCP connection with the message
5 `TCP connection failed: poll/select: exceptional condition detected'.
6 * Call MEM_ROUND in __transfer_interim (avoids assert fail
7 `qu->interim_allocd>=0' on some platforms eg 64 bit).
8
9 Portability/compilation fixes:
10 * Move `extern "C" {' to after #include <...>'s.
11
12 Minor improvements:
13 * Do not print warning if sendto() gives EAGAIN.

17 adns (0.8) BETA; urgency=medium
18
19 Bugfixes:
20 * Race near adns_beforeselect which could cause infinite timeout fixed
21 (it's now less agressive, and will more often return a zero timeout.)
22 * Fixed infrequent race causing assertion failure in adns__tcp_broken
23 `ads->tcpstate == server_connecting || ads->tcpstate == server_ok'.
24 * Spurious `server failure on unidentifiable query' warning suppressed.
25 * If we get a referral, don't also always complain falsely about RD==0.
26 * adnslogres: cast chars to unsigned char before using ctype.h macros.
27 * In _beforeselect, global failure now means zero timeout, and in
28 tcp_events, really never try to do anything with the TCP connection if
29 act is zero. This might possibly cause an infinite delay (ie, lockup)
30 if things go badly wrong *and* a really unlikely race happens.
31 * Test suite `lines of syscall left' value is correct; !0 is failure.
32
33 Portability fixes:
34 * install-sh (from autoconf 2.12 Debian r13) included.
35 * adnslogres: do not call equivalent of printf("%.*s",0,(char*)0).
36
37 Documentation improvements:
38 * Security/performance note added, about local nameservers and DNSSEC.
39 * Documented that adns_rr_info _rr_hostaddr ( ) for address list
40 means permanent failure, and ? means temporary failure.
41 * Typo (*now for now in _beforeselect description) in adns.h fixed.
42 * Copyright notices updated.
43
44 Changes to produce more defensive code:
45 * In adns_wait, assert that the timeout is not infinite.
46 * Make qu->id start out as -2 when initially allocated.

50 adns (0.7) BETA; urgency=medium
51
52 * New adns_submit_reverse_any for eg RBL lookups, and corresponding
53 option to adnshost.
54 * README updated (from www home page).
55
56 * In answers, quote all except alphanums and - _ / + (and document).
57 * Don't reject specials in cnames even without adns_qf_quotefail_cname.
58 * Better checking of long domain names and labels in queries.
59 * answer->owner may be null on error. Documented, and adnshost copes.
60 * Better reporting of unexpected or weird replies from nameserver.
61 * Add test case for recursion (infinite loop) domain compression.

65 adns (0.6) BETA; urgency=high
66
67 Core library bugfixes:
68 * Avoid infinite timeouts, causing lockup, when they should be zero !
69 * TCP handling revamped (avoids undefined behaviour due to reentrancy).
70 * Do not fail assertion if _qf_owner, _qf_search, domain ends in `.'.
71 * Many memory leaks fixed.
72
73 Cool new utility:
74 * adnsresfilter is like `cat' but converts addresses to names without
75 delaying the output. Pipe `netstat -n', `tcpdump -ln', etc. into it.
76
77 Test and client program bug and portability fixes:
78 * Dynamic library building works properly.
79 * adnshost prints somewhat better messages about some wrong usages.
80 * Include <stdlib.h> and <sys/types.h> in adnshost.h.
81 * adnslogres: parsing and error checking improved (Tony Finch).
82 * Regression tests can cope with zero-length reads.
83 * Regression tests check for memory leaks.
84 * adnstest copes with empty query type list.
85 * adnstest uninitialised memory bug fixed.
86
87 General improvements
88 * Better control of adnshost output and error messages (new -F options).
89 * New adns_if_logpid option (functionality suggested by Tony Finch).
90 * New fanftest test program from Tony Finch (ignored by `make install').
91 * Reads /etc/resolv-adns.conf if it exists.
92 * Declare flags parameters as enums again, not ints.

96 adns (0.5) unstable; urgency=high
97
98 New features:
99 * adnslogres, ~100x faster replacement for Apache logresolve;
100 Thanks to Tony Finch for the program and the performance figure.
101 * Internal consistency checking with assert if right options set.
102 * adns_wait_poll function like adns_wait but uses poll, not select.
103 * adns_reverse_submit function for easy in-addr queries.
104 * adns_errtypeabbrev funcion for getting eg "permfail" from _s_nodata.
105 * adnshost utility for scripts and the like (rather alpha).
106
107 Incompatible changes:
108 * RRs with mailboxes never rejected due to strange chars if _raw.
109 * Lack of a mailbox produces `.' not `<>'.
110 * Better usage messages (and no default query domain) for adnstest.
111 * Return EAGAIN from _check instead of EWOULDBLOCK.
112 * adns_rr_info on _r_mx etc. shows status type abbrev and status number.
113
114 Bugfixes:
115 * Do not invoke __autosys indirectly from __procdgram (result: coredump
116 usually in memmove, unless adns_if_noautosys was used).
117 * Do not scramble innards when a query on the output queue is cancelled.
118 * Do not close tcp socket twice.
119 * Mailboxes containing spaces in their names are quoted.
120 * Give ESRCH, not EAGAIN, if _check called with no queries outstanding.
121 * adns_rr_hostaddr naddrs is -1 on temporary failure (as documented).
122 * Reject TXT RRs with no strings.
123 * Correct error messages for qname CNAME foo, foo CNAME bar.
124 * adns_processany actually does something.
125 * Fixed typos in adns.h.
126
127 General improvements:
128 * Promise not to change fds in adns_beforepoll (if now is specified).
129 * Improved textual error string for _s_prohibitedcname.
130 * New comment in adns_processany and return 0 (not r which is 0).
131 * Documentation of resolv.conf directives and options, and of environment
132 variables understood, in adns.h
133 * Regression test scripts set EF_DISABLE_BANNER (for Electric Fence).
134
135 Portability and build improvements:
136 * Give install the '-c' flag (otherwise some delete the original !).
137 * Do not remove top-level Makefile on `make clean'.
138 * Don't complain so much about poll(2) tests if not available.
139 * Do not give -u 0 -g 0 options to install.
140 * Remove trailing , from some enums in adns.h.
141 * Dynamically linked clients now made with -l, so as to avoid rpath.
142 * Do not use $^ in make rules (should help with non-GNU make).
143 * Declare flags parameters as ints not enums because C++ is crap.

147 adns (0.4) unstable; urgency=high
148
149 General important bugfixes:
150 * make _qf_owner work if _qf_search not specified, and test it (oops!)
151 * ads->configerrno now initialised (in setup.c).
152 * timercmp(,,<=) doesn't work - use !timercmp(,,>).
153 * Changed memory semantics of internal queries to fix bugs.
154 * Restarting a TCP-using query (eg due to CNAME) doesn't abort.
155
156 Fixes for handling of broken kinds of reply:
157 * Only accept a reply from the subset of servers we sent the query.
158 * Ignore CNAME(s) in answer after RR(s) (and test).
159
160 Other bugfixes and improvements:
161 * adns_s_systemfail is in table of errors (for eg adns_strerror).
162 * Do not ship config.cache, Makefile, etc.
163 * Improvements to install instructions, TODO, etc.
164 * Regression tests compile on systems without poll(2).
165 * Do not install adnstest_s.
166 * _submit returns ENOSYS, not adns_s_unknownquery; documented, tested.
167 * <adns.h> includes <sys/types.h>, <sys/time.h>, <unistd.h>.

171 adns (0.3) unstable; urgency=low
172
173 Incompatible changes:
174 * Low adns_status values (below adns_s_max_tempfail) renumbered to make
175 room for future locally-induced and locally-detected errors.
176 * Event loop functions for use by select(2) renamed and tidied up.
177
178 Features / improvements:
179 * New adns_errabbrev() for getting status abbreviation strings.
180 * regress/checkall prints summary list of failed tests, if any.
181 * Event loop functions for poll(2), and some raw variants.
182 * adnstest has ability to use poll(2), and user can set initflags.
183 * checkall prints passed list as well as failed list, if any failed.
184 * You can iterate over outstanding queries (but only once at a time).
185
186 Bugfixes:
187 * Non-RFC822 mailbox `domain' formatting now works, and clarified.
188 * Rejection of bad characters in domains (without quoteok) works.
189 * Clean up parents from adns->childw (otherwise would abort/segfault).
190 * In adnstest, allocate enough space for, and terminate, query types.
191 * In adnstest, don't print errno values as adns_status values.
192
193 * Added TODO file.
194 * Made adnstest.c test context pointers.

199
200 Portability fixes for compilation on various platforms:
201 * Include <sys/socket.h> and <netinet/in.h> in files with <arpa/inet.h>.
202 * Don't use GCC union assignment feature (.rrs=0 => .rrs.untyped=0).

204 * Check whether we need -lsocket.
205 * Include <sys/times.h> in a few more files.
206 * Include <unistd.h> and <sys/time.h> for select.
207 * Look for inet_aton and inet_ntoa (in -lnsl and -lsocket).
208 * LDLIBS removed from dependency lists (some makes don't support this).
209 * An `ambiguous else' warning from some compilers in types.c is removed.
210
211 Other changes:
212 * Added COPYING (copy of the GPL).
213 * Regression test failure output improved.
214 * Missing targets in regress/Makefile.in added.
215 * Regression test doesn't rely on value of fcntl flags eg O_NONBLOCK.
