14 * Actually compile shared libraries by default !
15 * Fix adnsresfilter usage message to include correct default timeout.
16
17 General improvements:
18 * adnshost, adnslogres, adnsresfilter have options for config override.
19 * adnsresfilter has --debug option.
20 * Improvements to adnslogres (incl. new -c option) from Tony Finch.
21 * adnslogres has --help option, all utilities support --version.
22 * Documentation improved somewhat, including new GPL-vs-LGPL file.
23
24 Changes for non-BETA release:
25 * Change shared library soname to 1.0.
26 * Do not install adnstest test utility.
27
28 Regression test improvements:
29 * Tests now include adnshost, adnslogres and adnsresfilter.
30 * Test cancellation both before and after query completion.
31
32 Portability fixes and cleanups:
33 * adnstest: setvbuf(stdout,...) before we do first output.
34 * Cope with compilers that don't do `inline'.
35 * Add and fix various missing system #includes.
36 * Find install-sh properly when we need to use it, and chmod it +x.
37 * Do not use variadic macro, use stdarg instead (adnslogres.c).
38 * Regression tests work even if some syscalls are already macros.
39 * #include "config.h" before "adns.h".
40 * Cast a sizeof(...) in src/event.c to unsigned long before printing.
41 * Add pre-generated versions of m4-generated files in regress/.
42 * Kill bogus warning, adh-main.c: `arg2' might be used uninitialized ...
43 * Add extra {...} near adnslogres.c:167 to kill spurious warning.
44 * Use `printf' instead of `echo -n'.
45 * Add list of tested platforms in INSTALL file.

50
51 Bug fixes:
52 * Don't make _processany always kill the TCP connection with the message
53 `TCP connection failed: poll/select: exceptional condition detected'.
54 * Call MEM_ROUND in __transfer_interim (avoids assert fail
55 `qu->interim_allocd>=0' on some platforms eg 64 bit).
56 * adnsresfilter doesn't resolve textual prefixes of addresses (eg,
57 10.0.0.1 out of 10.0.0.123) if input happens to block at that point.
58 * Do not spin if TCP connection blocks for writing (and add test case).
59 * Fail queries if TCP dies repeatedly, rather than retrying many times.
60 * Do not abort in a couple of places if TCP unexpectedly broken.
61 * Do not free something twice if query fails and is then cancelled.
62
63 Portability/compilation fixes:
64 * Move `extern "C" {' to after #include <...>'s.
65 * Pass LDFLAGS from configure on to ld via settings.make.in.
66 * make clean deletes *.so and *.so.* files.
67 * New --disable-dynamic configure option for non-ELF systems.
68 * Use AC_PROG_INSTALL (=> perhaps install-sh), to avoid bad `install'.
69
70 Minor improvements:
71 * Do not print warning if sendto() gives EAGAIN.
72 * adnsresfilter default timeout changed to 1000ms.
73 * m1test script can invoke `hrecord' differently.
74 * regress/output-<case>.report file contains more useful info.
75 * TODO list and other docs updated slightly.
76 * Referrals with RD+RA set, or RCODE=Refused, don't generate warnings,
77 just debug messages. BIND does this kind of thing all the time.

81 adns (0.8) BETA; urgency=medium
82
83 Bugfixes:
84 * Race near adns_beforeselect which could cause infinite timeout fixed
85 (it's now less agressive, and will more often return a zero timeout.)
86 * Fixed infrequent race causing assertion failure in adns__tcp_broken
87 `ads->tcpstate == server_connecting || ads->tcpstate == server_ok'.
88 * Spurious `server failure on unidentifiable query' warning suppressed.
89 * If we get a referral, don't also always complain falsely about RD==0.
90 * adnslogres: cast chars to unsigned char before using ctype.h macros.
91 * In _beforeselect, global failure now means zero timeout, and in
92 tcp_events, really never try to do anything with the TCP connection if
93 act is zero. This might possibly cause an infinite delay (ie, lockup)
94 if things go badly wrong *and* a really unlikely race happens.
95 * Test suite `lines of syscall left' value is correct; !0 is failure.
96
97 Portability fixes:
98 * install-sh (from autoconf 2.12 Debian r13) included.
99 * adnslogres: do not call equivalent of printf("%.*s",0,(char*)0).
100
101 Documentation improvements:
102 * Security/performance note added, about local nameservers and DNSSEC.
103 * Documented that adns_rr_info _rr_hostaddr ( ) for address list
104 means permanent failure, and ? means temporary failure.
105 * Typo (*now for now in _beforeselect description) in adns.h fixed.
106 * Copyright notices updated.
107
108 Changes to produce more defensive code:
109 * In adns_wait, assert that the timeout is not infinite.
110 * Make qu->id start out as -2 when initially allocated.

113
114 adns (0.7) BETA; urgency=medium
115
116 * New adns_submit_reverse_any for eg RBL lookups, and corresponding
117 option to adnshost.
118 * README updated (from www home page).
119
120 * In answers, quote all except alphanums and - _ / + (and document).
121 * Don't reject specials in cnames even without adns_qf_quotefail_cname.
122 * Better checking of long domain names and labels in queries.
123 * answer->owner may be null on error. Documented, and adnshost copes.
124 * Better reporting of unexpected or weird replies from nameserver.
125 * Add test case for recursion (infinite loop) domain compression.

129 adns (0.6) BETA; urgency=high
130
131 Core library bugfixes:
132 * Avoid infinite timeouts, causing lockup, when they should be zero !
133 * TCP handling revamped (avoids undefined behaviour due to reentrancy).
134 * Do not fail assertion if _qf_owner, _qf_search, domain ends in `.'.
135 * Many memory leaks fixed.
136
137 Cool new utility:
138 * adnsresfilter is like `cat' but converts addresses to names without
139 delaying the output. Pipe `netstat -n', `tcpdump -ln', etc. into it.
140
141 Test and client program bug and portability fixes:
142 * Dynamic library building works properly.
143 * adnshost prints somewhat better messages about some wrong usages.
144 * Include <stdlib.h> and <sys/types.h> in adnshost.h.
145 * adnslogres: parsing and error checking improved (Tony Finch).
146 * Regression tests can cope with zero-length reads.
147 * Regression tests check for memory leaks.
148 * adnstest copes with empty query type list.
149 * adnstest uninitialised memory bug fixed.
150
151 General improvements
152 * Better control of adnshost output and error messages (new -F options).
153 * New adns_if_logpid option (functionality suggested by Tony Finch).
154 * New fanftest test program from Tony Finch (ignored by `make install').
155 * Reads /etc/resolv-adns.conf if it exists.
156 * Declare flags parameters as enums again, not ints.

160 adns (0.5) unstable; urgency=high
161
162 New features:
163 * adnslogres, ~100x faster replacement for Apache logresolve;
164 Thanks to Tony Finch for the program and the performance figure.
165 * Internal consistency checking with assert if right options set.
166 * adns_wait_poll function like adns_wait but uses poll, not select.
167 * adns_reverse_submit function for easy in-addr queries.
168 * adns_errtypeabbrev funcion for getting eg "permfail" from _s_nodata.
169 * adnshost utility for scripts and the like (rather alpha).
170
171 Incompatible changes:
172 * RRs with mailboxes never rejected due to strange chars if _raw.
173 * Lack of a mailbox produces `.' not `<>'.
174 * Better usage messages (and no default query domain) for adnstest.
175 * Return EAGAIN from _check instead of EWOULDBLOCK.
176 * adns_rr_info on _r_mx etc. shows status type abbrev and status number.
177
178 Bugfixes:
179 * Do not invoke __autosys indirectly from __procdgram (result: coredump
180 usually in memmove, unless adns_if_noautosys was used).
181 * Do not scramble innards when a query on the output queue is cancelled.
182 * Do not close tcp socket twice.
183 * Mailboxes containing spaces in their names are quoted.
184 * Give ESRCH, not EAGAIN, if _check called with no queries outstanding.
185 * adns_rr_hostaddr naddrs is -1 on temporary failure (as documented).
186 * Reject TXT RRs with no strings.
187 * Correct error messages for qname CNAME foo, foo CNAME bar.
188 * adns_processany actually does something.
189 * Fixed typos in adns.h.
190
191 General improvements:
192 * Promise not to change fds in adns_beforepoll (if now is specified).
193 * Improved textual error string for _s_prohibitedcname.
194 * New comment in adns_processany and return 0 (not r which is 0).
195 * Documentation of resolv.conf directives and options, and of environment
196 variables understood, in adns.h
197 * Regression test scripts set EF_DISABLE_BANNER (for Electric Fence).
198
199 Portability and build improvements:
200 * Give install the '-c' flag (otherwise some delete the original !).
201 * Do not remove top-level Makefile on `make clean'.
202 * Don't complain so much about poll(2) tests if not available.
203 * Do not give -u 0 -g 0 options to install.
204 * Remove trailing , from some enums in adns.h.
205 * Dynamically linked clients now made with -l, so as to avoid rpath.
206 * Do not use $^ in make rules (should help with non-GNU make).
207 * Declare flags parameters as ints not enums because C++ is crap.

212
213 General important bugfixes:
214 * make _qf_owner work if _qf_search not specified, and test it (oops!)
215 * ads->configerrno now initialised (in setup.c).
216 * timercmp(,,<=) doesn't work - use !timercmp(,,>).
217 * Changed memory semantics of internal queries to fix bugs.
218 * Restarting a TCP-using query (eg due to CNAME) doesn't abort.
219
220 Fixes for handling of broken kinds of reply:
221 * Only accept a reply from the subset of servers we sent the query.
222 * Ignore CNAME(s) in answer after RR(s) (and test).
223
224 Other bugfixes and improvements:
225 * adns_s_systemfail is in table of errors (for eg adns_strerror).
226 * Do not ship config.cache, Makefile, etc.
227 * Improvements to install instructions, TODO, etc.
228 * Regression tests compile on systems without poll(2).
229 * Do not install adnstest_s.
230 * _submit returns ENOSYS, not adns_s_unknownquery; documented, tested.
231 * <adns.h> includes <sys/types.h>, <sys/time.h>, <unistd.h>.

235 adns (0.3) unstable; urgency=low
236
237 Incompatible changes:
238 * Low adns_status values (below adns_s_max_tempfail) renumbered to make
239 room for future locally-induced and locally-detected errors.
240 * Event loop functions for use by select(2) renamed and tidied up.
241
242 Features / improvements:
243 * New adns_errabbrev() for getting status abbreviation strings.
244 * regress/checkall prints summary list of failed tests, if any.
245 * Event loop functions for poll(2), and some raw variants.
246 * adnstest has ability to use poll(2), and user can set initflags.
247 * checkall prints passed list as well as failed list, if any failed.
248 * You can iterate over outstanding queries (but only once at a time).
249
250 Bugfixes:
251 * Non-RFC822 mailbox `domain' formatting now works, and clarified.
252 * Rejection of bad characters in domains (without quoteok) works.
253 * Clean up parents from adns->childw (otherwise would abort/segfault).
254 * In adnstest, allocate enough space for, and terminate, query types.
255 * In adnstest, don't print errno values as adns_status values.
256
257 * Added TODO file.
258 * Made adnstest.c test context pointers.

269 * Include <sys/times.h> in a few more files.
270 * Include <unistd.h> and <sys/time.h> for select.
271 * Look for inet_aton and inet_ntoa (in -lnsl and -lsocket).
272 * LDLIBS removed from dependency lists (some makes don't support this).
273 * An `ambiguous else' warning from some compilers in types.c is removed.
274
275 Other changes:
276 * Added COPYING (copy of the GPL).
277 * Regression test failure output improved.
278 * Missing targets in regress/Makefile.in added.
