1 adns (1.1); urgency=medium
2
3 Bugfixes:
4 * Do not spin if connect() fails immediately (!)
5 * Stop searching on a CNAME (even if it's broken).
6 * When search list runs out, _qf_owner sets owner to query domain.
7 * Fix bogus multiple updates to p in transmit.c (!)
8 * Fix up spurious #undef's in hredirect.h.
9 * Don't use <sys/select.h> any more, it was a mistake made in pre-1.0
10 (and there doesn't seem to be much explanation why).
11 * Understand and sort of check OpenBSD `lookup' resolv.conf directive.
12 * #include <stdlib.h> in internal.h (for abort etc).
13 * Always #include <sys/types.h> before <sys/socket.h> (for FreeBSD 4.6).
14 * Added wishlist entry re configurable port no.
15 * Problem with SERVFAIL in TODO.
16 * README.html: mentioned Jarle Aase's Windows port, and other fixes.
17 * Some better source code formatting/wrapping.

22
23 Bugfixes:
24 * Treat 8-bit characters in email addrs as RFC822 `special' (=> quote).
25 * Fix incorrect `compressed datagram contains loop' error.
26 * Actually compile shared libraries by default !
27 * Fix adnsresfilter usage message to include correct default timeout.
28
29 General improvements:
30 * adnshost, adnslogres, adnsresfilter have options for config override.
31 * adnsresfilter has --debug option.
32 * Improvements to adnslogres (incl. new -c option) from Tony Finch.
33 * adnslogres has --help option, all utilities support --version.
34 * Documentation improved somewhat, including new GPL-vs-LGPL file.
35
36 Changes for non-BETA release:
37 * Change shared library soname to 1.0.
38 * Do not install adnstest test utility.
39
40 Regression test improvements:
41 * Tests now include adnshost, adnslogres and adnsresfilter.
42 * Test cancellation both before and after query completion.
43
44 Portability fixes and cleanups:
45 * adnstest: setvbuf(stdout,...) before we do first output.
46 * Cope with compilers that don't do `inline'.
47 * Add and fix various missing system #includes.
48 * Find install-sh properly when we need to use it, and chmod it +x.
49 * Do not use variadic macro, use stdarg instead (adnslogres.c).
50 * Regression tests work even if some syscalls are already macros.
51 * #include "config.h" before "adns.h".
52 * Cast a sizeof(...) in src/event.c to unsigned long before printing.
53 * Add pre-generated versions of m4-generated files in regress/.
54 * Kill bogus warning, adh-main.c: `arg2' might be used uninitialized ...
55 * Add extra {...} near adnslogres.c:167 to kill spurious warning.
56 * Use `printf' instead of `echo -n'.
57 * Add list of tested platforms in INSTALL file.

61 adns (0.9) BETA; urgency=high
62
63 Bug fixes:
64 * Don't make _processany always kill the TCP connection with the message
65 `TCP connection failed: poll/select: exceptional condition detected'.
66 * Call MEM_ROUND in __transfer_interim (avoids assert fail
67 `qu->interim_allocd>=0' on some platforms eg 64 bit).
68 * adnsresfilter doesn't resolve textual prefixes of addresses (eg,
69 10.0.0.1 out of 10.0.0.123) if input happens to block at that point.
70 * Do not spin if TCP connection blocks for writing (and add test case).
71 * Fail queries if TCP dies repeatedly, rather than retrying many times.
72 * Do not abort in a couple of places if TCP unexpectedly broken.
73 * Do not free something twice if query fails and is then cancelled.
74
75 Portability/compilation fixes:
76 * Move `extern "C" {' to after #include <...>'s.
77 * Pass LDFLAGS from configure on to ld via settings.make.in.
78 * make clean deletes *.so and *.so.* files.
79 * New --disable-dynamic configure option for non-ELF systems.
80 * Use AC_PROG_INSTALL (=> perhaps install-sh), to avoid bad `install'.
81
82 Minor improvements:
83 * Do not print warning if sendto() gives EAGAIN.
84 * adnsresfilter default timeout changed to 1000ms.
85 * m1test script can invoke `hrecord' differently.
86 * regress/output-<case>.report file contains more useful info.
87 * TODO list and other docs updated slightly.
88 * Referrals with RD+RA set, or RCODE=Refused, don't generate warnings,
89 just debug messages. BIND does this kind of thing all the time.

93 adns (0.8) BETA; urgency=medium
94
95 Bugfixes:
96 * Race near adns_beforeselect which could cause infinite timeout fixed
97 (it's now less agressive, and will more often return a zero timeout.)
98 * Fixed infrequent race causing assertion failure in adns__tcp_broken
99 `ads->tcpstate == server_connecting || ads->tcpstate == server_ok'.
100 * Spurious `server failure on unidentifiable query' warning suppressed.
101 * If we get a referral, don't also always complain falsely about RD==0.
102 * adnslogres: cast chars to unsigned char before using ctype.h macros.
103 * In _beforeselect, global failure now means zero timeout, and in
104 tcp_events, really never try to do anything with the TCP connection if
105 act is zero. This might possibly cause an infinite delay (ie, lockup)
106 if things go badly wrong *and* a really unlikely race happens.
107 * Test suite `lines of syscall left' value is correct; !0 is failure.
108
109 Portability fixes:
110 * install-sh (from autoconf 2.12 Debian r13) included.
111 * adnslogres: do not call equivalent of printf("%.*s",0,(char*)0).
112
113 Documentation improvements:
114 * Security/performance note added, about local nameservers and DNSSEC.
115 * Documented that adns_rr_info _rr_hostaddr ( ) for address list
116 means permanent failure, and ? means temporary failure.
117 * Typo (*now for now in _beforeselect description) in adns.h fixed.
118 * Copyright notices updated.
119
120 Changes to produce more defensive code:
121 * In adns_wait, assert that the timeout is not infinite.
122 * Make qu->id start out as -2 when initially allocated.

125
126 adns (0.7) BETA; urgency=medium
127
128 * New adns_submit_reverse_any for eg RBL lookups, and corresponding
129 option to adnshost.
130 * README updated (from www home page).
131
132 * In answers, quote all except alphanums and - _ / + (and document).
133 * Don't reject specials in cnames even without adns_qf_quotefail_cname.
134 * Better checking of long domain names and labels in queries.
135 * answer->owner may be null on error. Documented, and adnshost copes.
136 * Better reporting of unexpected or weird replies from nameserver.
137 * Add test case for recursion (infinite loop) domain compression.

141 adns (0.6) BETA; urgency=high
142
143 Core library bugfixes:
144 * Avoid infinite timeouts, causing lockup, when they should be zero !
145 * TCP handling revamped (avoids undefined behaviour due to reentrancy).
146 * Do not fail assertion if _qf_owner, _qf_search, domain ends in `.'.
147 * Many memory leaks fixed.
148
149 Cool new utility:
150 * adnsresfilter is like `cat' but converts addresses to names without
151 delaying the output. Pipe `netstat -n', `tcpdump -ln', etc. into it.
152
153 Test and client program bug and portability fixes:
154 * Dynamic library building works properly.
155 * adnshost prints somewhat better messages about some wrong usages.
156 * Include <stdlib.h> and <sys/types.h> in adnshost.h.
157 * adnslogres: parsing and error checking improved (Tony Finch).
158 * Regression tests can cope with zero-length reads.
159 * Regression tests check for memory leaks.
160 * adnstest copes with empty query type list.
161 * adnstest uninitialised memory bug fixed.
162
163 General improvements
164 * Better control of adnshost output and error messages (new -F options).
165 * New adns_if_logpid option (functionality suggested by Tony Finch).
166 * New fanftest test program from Tony Finch (ignored by `make install').
167 * Reads /etc/resolv-adns.conf if it exists.
168 * Declare flags parameters as enums again, not ints.

172 adns (0.5) unstable; urgency=high
173
174 New features:
175 * adnslogres, ~100x faster replacement for Apache logresolve;
176 Thanks to Tony Finch for the program and the performance figure.
177 * Internal consistency checking with assert if right options set.
178 * adns_wait_poll function like adns_wait but uses poll, not select.
179 * adns_reverse_submit function for easy in-addr queries.
180 * adns_errtypeabbrev funcion for getting eg "permfail" from _s_nodata.
181 * adnshost utility for scripts and the like (rather alpha).
182
183 Incompatible changes:
184 * RRs with mailboxes never rejected due to strange chars if _raw.
185 * Lack of a mailbox produces `.' not `<>'.
186 * Better usage messages (and no default query domain) for adnstest.
187 * Return EAGAIN from _check instead of EWOULDBLOCK.
188 * adns_rr_info on _r_mx etc. shows status type abbrev and status number.
189
190 Bugfixes:
191 * Do not invoke __autosys indirectly from __procdgram (result: coredump
192 usually in memmove, unless adns_if_noautosys was used).
193 * Do not scramble innards when a query on the output queue is cancelled.
194 * Do not close tcp socket twice.
195 * Mailboxes containing spaces in their names are quoted.
196 * Give ESRCH, not EAGAIN, if _check called with no queries outstanding.
197 * adns_rr_hostaddr naddrs is -1 on temporary failure (as documented).
198 * Reject TXT RRs with no strings.
199 * Correct error messages for qname CNAME foo, foo CNAME bar.
200 * adns_processany actually does something.
201 * Fixed typos in adns.h.
202
203 General improvements:
204 * Promise not to change fds in adns_beforepoll (if now is specified).
205 * Improved textual error string for _s_prohibitedcname.
206 * New comment in adns_processany and return 0 (not r which is 0).
207 * Documentation of resolv.conf directives and options, and of environment
208 variables understood, in adns.h
209 * Regression test scripts set EF_DISABLE_BANNER (for Electric Fence).
210
211 Portability and build improvements:
212 * Give install the '-c' flag (otherwise some delete the original !).
213 * Do not remove top-level Makefile on `make clean'.
214 * Don't complain so much about poll(2) tests if not available.
215 * Do not give -u 0 -g 0 options to install.
216 * Remove trailing , from some enums in adns.h.
217 * Dynamically linked clients now made with -l, so as to avoid rpath.
218 * Do not use $^ in make rules (should help with non-GNU make).
219 * Declare flags parameters as ints not enums because C++ is crap.

223 adns (0.4) unstable; urgency=high
224
225 General important bugfixes:
226 * make _qf_owner work if _qf_search not specified, and test it (oops!)
227 * ads->configerrno now initialised (in setup.c).
228 * timercmp(,,<=) doesn't work - use !timercmp(,,>).
229 * Changed memory semantics of internal queries to fix bugs.
230 * Restarting a TCP-using query (eg due to CNAME) doesn't abort.
231
232 Fixes for handling of broken kinds of reply:
233 * Only accept a reply from the subset of servers we sent the query.
234 * Ignore CNAME(s) in answer after RR(s) (and test).
235
236 Other bugfixes and improvements:
237 * adns_s_systemfail is in table of errors (for eg adns_strerror).
238 * Do not ship config.cache, Makefile, etc.
239 * Improvements to install instructions, TODO, etc.
240 * Regression tests compile on systems without poll(2).
241 * Do not install adnstest_s.
242 * _submit returns ENOSYS, not adns_s_unknownquery; documented, tested.
243 * <adns.h> includes <sys/types.h>, <sys/time.h>, <unistd.h>.

247 adns (0.3) unstable; urgency=low
248
249 Incompatible changes:
250 * Low adns_status values (below adns_s_max_tempfail) renumbered to make
251 room for future locally-induced and locally-detected errors.
252 * Event loop functions for use by select(2) renamed and tidied up.
253
254 Features / improvements:
255 * New adns_errabbrev() for getting status abbreviation strings.
256 * regress/checkall prints summary list of failed tests, if any.
257 * Event loop functions for poll(2), and some raw variants.
258 * adnstest has ability to use poll(2), and user can set initflags.
259 * checkall prints passed list as well as failed list, if any failed.
260 * You can iterate over outstanding queries (but only once at a time).
261
262 Bugfixes:
263 * Non-RFC822 mailbox `domain' formatting now works, and clarified.
264 * Rejection of bad characters in domains (without quoteok) works.
265 * Clean up parents from adns->childw (otherwise would abort/segfault).
266 * In adnstest, allocate enough space for, and terminate, query types.
267 * In adnstest, don't print errno values as adns_status values.
268
269 * Added TODO file.
270 * Made adnstest.c test context pointers.

281 * Include <sys/times.h> in a few more files.
282 * Include <unistd.h> and <sys/time.h> for select.
283 * Look for inet_aton and inet_ntoa (in -lnsl and -lsocket).
284 * LDLIBS removed from dependency lists (some makes don't support this).
285 * An `ambiguous else' warning from some compilers in types.c is removed.
286
287 Other changes:
288 * Added COPYING (copy of the GPL).
289 * Regression test failure output improved.
290 * Missing targets in regress/Makefile.in added.
