[adns] / changelog
1 adns (1.2); urgency=medium
2
3 * Fix error in prototype in definition of adns__parse_domain.
4 * New LICENCE.WAIVERS file for GPL-incompatility workarounds.
5 * Clarified GPL-vs-LGPL: a bit less hostile and a bit more mercenary.
6 * Allow `;'-comments in resolv.conf (report from Colin Charles).
7 * Added a TODO list item.
8 * Add .PHONY: install to Makefile, to help people with demented fs's.
9 * Darwin listed in INSTALL.
10 * New adnsheloex client courtesy of Tony Finch (and copyright notices
11 updated).
12 * Add documentation comment by definition of adns_r_ptr_raw type enum.
13 * Add -Wno-pointer-sign if GCC has that option.
14 * Call Tensurerecordfile in Hgettimeofday (Tensurerecordfile was
15 Tensureinputfile/Tensureoutputfile).
16 * Add bind(2) and listen(2) to test harness (for epithet's benefit, but
17 harmless in adns).
18 * Add missing ENOTSOCK to hcommon.c.m4 (was already in hcommon.c!)

22 adns (1.1); urgency=medium
23
24 Major bugfixes:
25 * Do not spin if connect() fails immediately (!)
26 * Stop searching on a CNAME (even if it's broken).
27 * When search list runs out, _qf_owner sets owner to query domain.
28 * Fix bogus multiple updates to p in transmit.c (!)
29
30 Portability improvements:
31 * Fix up spurious #undef's in hredirect.h.
32 * Don't use <sys/select.h> any more, it was a mistake made in pre-1.0
33 (and there doesn't seem to be much explanation why).
34 * Understand and sort of check OpenBSD `lookup' resolv.conf directive.
35 * #include <stdlib.h> in internal.h (for abort etc).
36 * Always #include <sys/types.h> before <sys/socket.h> (for FreeBSD 4.6).
37
38 Cosmetic and documentation improvements:
39 * Added wishlist entry re configurable port no.
40 * Problem with SERVFAIL in TODO.
41 * README.html: mentioned Jarle Aase's Windows port, and other fixes.
42 * Some better source code formatting/wrapping.

46 adns (1.0); urgency=medium
47
48 Bugfixes:
49 * Treat 8-bit characters in email addrs as RFC822 `special' (=> quote).
50 * Fix incorrect `compressed datagram contains loop' error.
51 * Actually compile shared libraries by default !
52 * Fix adnsresfilter usage message to include correct default timeout.
53
54 General improvements:
55 * adnshost, adnslogres, adnsresfilter have options for config override.
56 * adnsresfilter has --debug option.
57 * Improvements to adnslogres (incl. new -c option) from Tony Finch.
58 * adnslogres has --help option, all utilities support --version.
59 * Documentation improved somewhat, including new GPL-vs-LGPL file.
60
61 Changes for non-BETA release:
62 * Change shared library soname to 1.0.
63 * Do not install adnstest test utility.
64
65 Regression test improvements:
66 * Tests now include adnshost, adnslogres and adnsresfilter.
67 * Test cancellation both before and after query completion.
68
69 Portability fixes and cleanups:
70 * adnstest: setvbuf(stdout,...) before we do first output.
71 * Cope with compilers that don't do `inline'.
72 * Add and fix various missing system #includes.
73 * Find install-sh properly when we need to use it, and chmod it +x.
74 * Do not use variadic macro, use stdarg instead (adnslogres.c).
75 * Regression tests work even if some syscalls are already macros.
76 * #include "config.h" before "adns.h".
77 * Cast a sizeof(...) in src/event.c to unsigned long before printing.
78 * Add pre-generated versions of m4-generated files in regress/.
79 * Kill bogus warning, adh-main.c: `arg2' might be used uninitialized ...
80 * Add extra {...} near adnslogres.c:167 to kill spurious warning.
81 * Use `printf' instead of `echo -n'.
82 * Add list of tested platforms in INSTALL file.

86 adns (0.9) BETA; urgency=high
87
88 Bug fixes:
89 * Don't make _processany always kill the TCP connection with the message
90 `TCP connection failed: poll/select: exceptional condition detected'.
91 * Call MEM_ROUND in __transfer_interim (avoids assert fail
92 `qu->interim_allocd>=0' on some platforms eg 64 bit).
93 * adnsresfilter doesn't resolve textual prefixes of addresses (eg,
94 10.0.0.1 out of 10.0.0.123) if input happens to block at that point.
95 * Do not spin if TCP connection blocks for writing (and add test case).
96 * Fail queries if TCP dies repeatedly, rather than retrying many times.
97 * Do not abort in a couple of places if TCP unexpectedly broken.
98 * Do not free something twice if query fails and is then cancelled.
99
100 Portability/compilation fixes:
101 * Move `extern "C" {' to after #include <...>'s.
102 * Pass LDFLAGS from configure on to ld via settings.make.in.
103 * make clean deletes *.so and *.so.* files.
104 * New --disable-dynamic configure option for non-ELF systems.
105 * Use AC_PROG_INSTALL (=> perhaps install-sh), to avoid bad `install'.
106
107 Minor improvements:
108 * Do not print warning if sendto() gives EAGAIN.
109 * adnsresfilter default timeout changed to 1000ms.
110 * m1test script can invoke `hrecord' differently.
111 * regress/output-<case>.report file contains more useful info.
112 * TODO list and other docs updated slightly.
113 * Referrals with RD+RA set, or RCODE=Refused, don't generate warnings,
114 just debug messages. BIND does this kind of thing all the time.

117
118 adns (0.8) BETA; urgency=medium
119
120 Bugfixes:
121 * Race near adns_beforeselect which could cause infinite timeout fixed
122 (it's now less agressive, and will more often return a zero timeout.)
123 * Fixed infrequent race causing assertion failure in adns__tcp_broken
124 `ads->tcpstate == server_connecting || ads->tcpstate == server_ok'.
125 * Spurious `server failure on unidentifiable query' warning suppressed.
126 * If we get a referral, don't also always complain falsely about RD==0.
127 * adnslogres: cast chars to unsigned char before using ctype.h macros.
128 * In _beforeselect, global failure now means zero timeout, and in
129 tcp_events, really never try to do anything with the TCP connection if
130 act is zero. This might possibly cause an infinite delay (ie, lockup)
131 if things go badly wrong *and* a really unlikely race happens.
132 * Test suite `lines of syscall left' value is correct; !0 is failure.
133
134 Portability fixes:
135 * install-sh (from autoconf 2.12 Debian r13) included.
136 * adnslogres: do not call equivalent of printf("%.*s",0,(char*)0).
137
138 Documentation improvements:
139 * Security/performance note added, about local nameservers and DNSSEC.
140 * Documented that adns_rr_info _rr_hostaddr ( ) for address list
141 means permanent failure, and ? means temporary failure.
142 * Typo (*now for now in _beforeselect description) in adns.h fixed.
143 * Copyright notices updated.
144
145 Changes to produce more defensive code:
146 * In adns_wait, assert that the timeout is not infinite.
147 * Make qu->id start out as -2 when initially allocated.

150
151 adns (0.7) BETA; urgency=medium
152
153 * New adns_submit_reverse_any for eg RBL lookups, and corresponding
154 option to adnshost.
155 * README updated (from www home page).
156
157 * In answers, quote all except alphanums and - _ / + (and document).
158 * Don't reject specials in cnames even without adns_qf_quotefail_cname.
159 * Better checking of long domain names and labels in queries.
160 * answer->owner may be null on error. Documented, and adnshost copes.
161 * Better reporting of unexpected or weird replies from nameserver.
162 * Add test case for recursion (infinite loop) domain compression.

165
166 adns (0.6) BETA; urgency=high
167
168 Core library bugfixes:
169 * Avoid infinite timeouts, causing lockup, when they should be zero !
170 * TCP handling revamped (avoids undefined behaviour due to reentrancy).
171 * Do not fail assertion if _qf_owner, _qf_search, domain ends in `.'.
172 * Many memory leaks fixed.
173
174 Cool new utility:
175 * adnsresfilter is like `cat' but converts addresses to names without
176 delaying the output. Pipe `netstat -n', `tcpdump -ln', etc. into it.
177
178 Test and client program bug and portability fixes:
179 * Dynamic library building works properly.
180 * adnshost prints somewhat better messages about some wrong usages.
181 * Include <stdlib.h> and <sys/types.h> in adnshost.h.
182 * adnslogres: parsing and error checking improved (Tony Finch).
183 * Regression tests can cope with zero-length reads.
184 * Regression tests check for memory leaks.
185 * adnstest copes with empty query type list.
186 * adnstest uninitialised memory bug fixed.
187
188 General improvements
189 * Better control of adnshost output and error messages (new -F options).
190 * New adns_if_logpid option (functionality suggested by Tony Finch).
191 * New fanftest test program from Tony Finch (ignored by `make install').
192 * Reads /etc/resolv-adns.conf if it exists.
193 * Declare flags parameters as enums again, not ints.

197 adns (0.5) unstable; urgency=high
198
199 New features:
200 * adnslogres, ~100x faster replacement for Apache logresolve;
201 Thanks to Tony Finch for the program and the performance figure.
202 * Internal consistency checking with assert if right options set.
203 * adns_wait_poll function like adns_wait but uses poll, not select.
204 * adns_reverse_submit function for easy in-addr queries.
205 * adns_errtypeabbrev funcion for getting eg "permfail" from _s_nodata.
206 * adnshost utility for scripts and the like (rather alpha).
207
208 Incompatible changes:
209 * RRs with mailboxes never rejected due to strange chars if _raw.
210 * Lack of a mailbox produces `.' not `<>'.
211 * Better usage messages (and no default query domain) for adnstest.
212 * Return EAGAIN from _check instead of EWOULDBLOCK.
213 * adns_rr_info on _r_mx etc. shows status type abbrev and status number.
214
215 Bugfixes:
216 * Do not invoke __autosys indirectly from __procdgram (result: coredump
217 usually in memmove, unless adns_if_noautosys was used).
218 * Do not scramble innards when a query on the output queue is cancelled.
219 * Do not close tcp socket twice.
220 * Mailboxes containing spaces in their names are quoted.
221 * Give ESRCH, not EAGAIN, if _check called with no queries outstanding.
222 * adns_rr_hostaddr naddrs is -1 on temporary failure (as documented).
223 * Reject TXT RRs with no strings.
224 * Correct error messages for qname CNAME foo, foo CNAME bar.
225 * adns_processany actually does something.
226 * Fixed typos in adns.h.
227
228 General improvements:
229 * Promise not to change fds in adns_beforepoll (if now is specified).
230 * Improved textual error string for _s_prohibitedcname.
231 * New comment in adns_processany and return 0 (not r which is 0).
232 * Documentation of resolv.conf directives and options, and of environment
233 variables understood, in adns.h
234 * Regression test scripts set EF_DISABLE_BANNER (for Electric Fence).
235
236 Portability and build improvements:
237 * Give install the '-c' flag (otherwise some delete the original !).
238 * Do not remove top-level Makefile on `make clean'.
239 * Don't complain so much about poll(2) tests if not available.
240 * Do not give -u 0 -g 0 options to install.
241 * Remove trailing , from some enums in adns.h.
242 * Dynamically linked clients now made with -l, so as to avoid rpath.
243 * Do not use $^ in make rules (should help with non-GNU make).
244 * Declare flags parameters as ints not enums because C++ is crap.

248 adns (0.4) unstable; urgency=high
249
250 General important bugfixes:
251 * make _qf_owner work if _qf_search not specified, and test it (oops!)
252 * ads->configerrno now initialised (in setup.c).
253 * timercmp(,,<=) doesn't work - use !timercmp(,,>).
254 * Changed memory semantics of internal queries to fix bugs.
255 * Restarting a TCP-using query (eg due to CNAME) doesn't abort.
256
257 Fixes for handling of broken kinds of reply:
258 * Only accept a reply from the subset of servers we sent the query.
259 * Ignore CNAME(s) in answer after RR(s) (and test).
260
261 Other bugfixes and improvements:
262 * adns_s_systemfail is in table of errors (for eg adns_strerror).
263 * Do not ship config.cache, Makefile, etc.
264 * Improvements to install instructions, TODO, etc.
265 * Regression tests compile on systems without poll(2).
266 * Do not install adnstest_s.
267 * _submit returns ENOSYS, not adns_s_unknownquery; documented, tested.
268 * <adns.h> includes <sys/types.h>, <sys/time.h>, <unistd.h>.

272 adns (0.3) unstable; urgency=low
273
274 Incompatible changes:
275 * Low adns_status values (below adns_s_max_tempfail) renumbered to make
276 room for future locally-induced and locally-detected errors.
277 * Event loop functions for use by select(2) renamed and tidied up.
278
279 Features / improvements:
280 * New adns_errabbrev() for getting status abbreviation strings.
281 * regress/checkall prints summary list of failed tests, if any.
282 * Event loop functions for poll(2), and some raw variants.
283 * adnstest has ability to use poll(2), and user can set initflags.
284 * checkall prints passed list as well as failed list, if any failed.
285 * You can iterate over outstanding queries (but only once at a time).
286
287 Bugfixes:
288 * Non-RFC822 mailbox `domain' formatting now works, and clarified.
289 * Rejection of bad characters in domains (without quoteok) works.
290 * Clean up parents from adns->childw (otherwise would abort/segfault).
291 * In adnstest, allocate enough space for, and terminate, query types.
292 * In adnstest, don't print errno values as adns_status values.
293
294 * Added TODO file.
295 * Made adnstest.c test context pointers.

310 * An `ambiguous else' warning from some compilers in types.c is removed.
311
