1 adns (0.7) BETA; urgency=medium
3 * README updated (from www home page).
4 * Better reporting of unexpected or weird replies from nameserver.
5 * Better checking of long domain names and labels in queries.
6 * Unfortunately, answer->owner may be null on error. Documented.
10 adns (0.6) BETA; urgency=high
12 Core library bugfixes:
13 * Avoid infinite timeouts, causing lockup, when they should be zero !
14 * TCP handling revamped (avoids undefined behaviour due to reentrancy).
15 * Do not fail assertion if _qf_owner, _qf_search, domain ends in `.'.
16 * Many memory leaks fixed.
19 * adnsresfilter is like `cat' but converts addresses to names without
20 delaying the output. Pipe `netstat -n', `tcpdump -ln', etc. into it.
22 Test and client program bug and portability fixes:
23 * Dynamic library building works properly.
24 * adnshost prints somewhat better messages about some wrong usages.
25 * Include <stdlib.h> and <sys/types.h> in adnshost.h.
26 * adnslogres: parsing and error checking improved (Tony Finch).
27 * Regression tests can cope with zero-length reads.
28 * Regression tests check for memory leaks.
29 * adnstest copes with empty query type list.
30 * adnstest uninitialised memory bug fixed.
33 * Better control of adnshost output and error messages (new -F options).
34 * New adns_if_logpid option (functionality suggested by Tony Finch).
35 * New fanftest test program from Tony Finch (ignored by `make install').
36 * Reads /etc/resolv-adns.conf if it exists.
37 * Declare flags parameters as enums again, not ints.

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

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

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

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