15 adns (0.6) BETA; urgency=high
16
17 Core library bugfixes:
18 * Avoid infinite timeouts, causing lockup, when they should be zero !
19 * TCP handling revamped (avoids undefined behaviour due to reentrancy).
20 * Do not fail assertion if _qf_owner, _qf_search, domain ends in `.'.
21 * Many memory leaks fixed.
22
23 Cool new utility:
24 * adnsresfilter is like `cat' but converts addresses to names without
25 delaying the output. Pipe `netstat -n', `tcpdump -ln', etc. into it.
26
27 Test and client program bug and portability fixes:
28 * Dynamic library building works properly.
29 * adnshost prints somewhat better messages about some wrong usages.
30 * Include <stdlib.h> and <sys/types.h> in adnshost.h.
31 * adnslogres: parsing and error checking improved (Tony Finch).
32 * Regression tests can cope with zero-length reads.
33 * Regression tests check for memory leaks.
34 * adnstest copes with empty query type list.
35 * adnstest uninitialised memory bug fixed.
36
37 General improvements
38 * Better control of adnshost output and error messages (new -F options).
39 * New adns_if_logpid option (functionality suggested by Tony Finch).
40 * New fanftest test program from Tony Finch (ignored by `make install').
41 * Reads /etc/resolv-adns.conf if it exists.
42 * Declare flags parameters as enums again, not ints.

46 adns (0.5) unstable; urgency=high
47
48 New features:
49 * adnslogres, ~100x faster replacement for Apache logresolve;
50 Thanks to Tony Finch for the program and the performance figure.
51 * Internal consistency checking with assert if right options set.
52 * adns_wait_poll function like adns_wait but uses poll, not select.
53 * adns_reverse_submit function for easy in-addr queries.
54 * adns_errtypeabbrev funcion for getting eg "permfail" from _s_nodata.
55 * adnshost utility for scripts and the like (rather alpha).
56
57 Incompatible changes:
58 * RRs with mailboxes never rejected due to strange chars if _raw.
59 * Lack of a mailbox produces `.' not `<>'.
60 * Better usage messages (and no default query domain) for adnstest.
61 * Return EAGAIN from _check instead of EWOULDBLOCK.
62 * adns_rr_info on _r_mx etc. shows status type abbrev and status number.
63
64 Bugfixes:
65 * Do not invoke __autosys indirectly from __procdgram (result: coredump
66 usually in memmove, unless adns_if_noautosys was used).
67 * Do not scramble innards when a query on the output queue is cancelled.
68 * Do not close tcp socket twice.
69 * Mailboxes containing spaces in their names are quoted.
70 * Give ESRCH, not EAGAIN, if _check called with no queries outstanding.
71 * adns_rr_hostaddr naddrs is -1 on temporary failure (as documented).
72 * Reject TXT RRs with no strings.
73 * Correct error messages for qname CNAME foo, foo CNAME bar.
74 * adns_processany actually does something.
75 * Fixed typos in adns.h.
76
77 General improvements:
78 * Promise not to change fds in adns_beforepoll (if now is specified).
79 * Improved textual error string for _s_prohibitedcname.
80 * New comment in adns_processany and return 0 (not r which is 0).
81 * Documentation of resolv.conf directives and options, and of environment
82 variables understood, in adns.h
83 * Regression test scripts set EF_DISABLE_BANNER (for Electric Fence).
84
85 Portability and build improvements:
86 * Give install the '-c' flag (otherwise some delete the original !).
87 * Do not remove top-level Makefile on `make clean'.
88 * Don't complain so much about poll(2) tests if not available.
89 * Do not give -u 0 -g 0 options to install.
90 * Remove trailing , from some enums in adns.h.
91 * Dynamically linked clients now made with -l, so as to avoid rpath.
92 * Do not use $^ in make rules (should help with non-GNU make).
93 * Declare flags parameters as ints not enums because C++ is crap.

97 adns (0.4) unstable; urgency=high
98
99 General important bugfixes:
100 * make _qf_owner work if _qf_search not specified, and test it (oops!)
101 * ads->configerrno now initialised (in setup.c).
102 * timercmp(,,<=) doesn't work - use !timercmp(,,>).
103 * Changed memory semantics of internal queries to fix bugs.
104 * Restarting a TCP-using query (eg due to CNAME) doesn't abort.
105
106 Fixes for handling of broken kinds of reply:
107 * Only accept a reply from the subset of servers we sent the query.
108 * Ignore CNAME(s) in answer after RR(s) (and test).
109
110 Other bugfixes and improvements:
111 * adns_s_systemfail is in table of errors (for eg adns_strerror).
112 * Do not ship config.cache, Makefile, etc.
113 * Improvements to install instructions, TODO, etc.
114 * Regression tests compile on systems without poll(2).
115 * Do not install adnstest_s.
116 * _submit returns ENOSYS, not adns_s_unknownquery; documented, tested.
117 * <adns.h> includes <sys/types.h>, <sys/time.h>, <unistd.h>.

121 adns (0.3) unstable; urgency=low
122
123 Incompatible changes:
124 * Low adns_status values (below adns_s_max_tempfail) renumbered to make
125 room for future locally-induced and locally-detected errors.
126 * Event loop functions for use by select(2) renamed and tidied up.
127
128 Features / improvements:
129 * New adns_errabbrev() for getting status abbreviation strings.
130 * regress/checkall prints summary list of failed tests, if any.
131 * Event loop functions for poll(2), and some raw variants.
132 * adnstest has ability to use poll(2), and user can set initflags.
133 * checkall prints passed list as well as failed list, if any failed.
134 * You can iterate over outstanding queries (but only once at a time).
135
136 Bugfixes:
137 * Non-RFC822 mailbox `domain' formatting now works, and clarified.
138 * Rejection of bad characters in domains (without quoteok) works.
139 * Clean up parents from adns->childw (otherwise would abort/segfault).
140 * In adnstest, allocate enough space for, and terminate, query types.
141 * In adnstest, don't print errno values as adns_status values.
142
143 * Added TODO file.
144 * Made adnstest.c test context pointers.

148 adns (0.2) experimental; urgency=low
149
150 Portability fixes for compilation on various platforms:
151 * Include <sys/socket.h> and <netinet/in.h> in files with <arpa/inet.h>.
152 * Don't use GCC union assignment feature (.rrs=0 => .rrs.untyped=0).
153 * Explictly cast things to [const] struct sockaddr* in syscall args.
154 * Check whether we need -lsocket.
155 * Include <sys/times.h> in a few more files.
156 * Include <unistd.h> and <sys/time.h> for select.
157 * Look for inet_aton and inet_ntoa (in -lnsl and -lsocket).
158 * LDLIBS removed from dependency lists (some makes don't support this).
159 * An `ambiguous else' warning from some compilers in types.c is removed.
160
161 Other changes:
162 * Added COPYING (copy of the GPL).
163 * Regression test failure output improved.
164 * Missing targets in regress/Makefile.in added.
165 * Regression test doesn't rely on value of fcntl flags eg O_NONBLOCK.
