1 adns (1.1.999.0.1); 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!)
19 * New adns_init_logfn etc. for having logging done with a callback
20 function.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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