adnshost improvements - now runs for at least one query.
[adns] / changelog
1 adns (0.5) unstable; urgency=medium
2
3 New features:
4 * New adnslogres, ~100x faster replacement for Apache logresolve;
5 Thanks to Tony Finch for the program and the performance figure.
6 * New internal consistency checking with assert if right options set.
7 * New adns_wait_poll function like adns_wait but uses poll, not select.
8 * New adnshost utility - very alpha.
9
10 Incompatible changes:
11 * RRs with mailboxes never rejected due to strange chars if _raw.
12 * Lack of a mailbox produces `.' not `<>'.
13 * Better usage messages (and no default query domain) for adnstest.
14 * Return EAGAIN from _check instead of EWOULDBLOCK.
15
16 Bugfixes:
17 * Do not invoke __autosys indirectly from __procdgram (result: coredump
18 usually in memmove, unless adns_if_noautosys was used).
19 * Do not scramble innards when a query on the output queue is cancelled.
20 * Do not close tcp socket twice.
21 * Mailboxes containing spaces in their names are quoted.
22 * Give ESRCH, not EAGAIN, if _check called with no queries outstanding.
23 * adns_rr_hostaddr naddrs is -1 on temporary failure (as documented).
24 * Reject TXT RRs with no strings.
25 * Correct error messages for qname CNAME foo, foo CNAME bar.
26 * adns_processany actually does something.
27 * Fixed typos in adns.h.
28
29 General improvements:
30 * Promise not to change fds in adns_beforepoll (if now is specified).
31 * Improved textual error string for _s_prohibitedcname.
32 * New comment in adns_processany and return 0 (not r which is 0).
33 * Documentation of resolv.conf directives and options, and of environment
34 variables understood, in adns.h
35
36 Portability and build improvements:
37 * Give install the '-c' flag (otherwise some delete the original !).
38 * Do not remove top-level Makefile on `make clean'.
39 * Don't complain so much about poll(2) tests if not available.
40 * Do not give -u 0 -g 0 options to install.
41 * Remove trailing , from some enums in adns.h.

45 adns (0.4) unstable; urgency=high
46
47 General important bugfixes:
48 * make _qf_owner work if _qf_search not specified, and test it (oops!)
49 * ads->configerrno now initialised (in setup.c).
50 * timercmp(,,<=) doesn't work - use !timercmp(,,>).
51 * Changed memory semantics of internal queries to fix bugs.
52 * Restarting a TCP-using query (eg due to CNAME) doesn't abort.
53
54 Fixes for handling of broken kinds of reply:
55 * Only accept a reply from the subset of servers we sent the query.
56 * Ignore CNAME(s) in answer after RR(s) (and test).
57
58 Other bugfixes and improvements:
59 * adns_s_systemfail is in table of errors (for eg adns_strerror).
60 * Do not ship config.cache, Makefile, etc.
61 * Improvements to install instructions, TODO, etc.
62 * Regression tests compile on systems without poll(2).
63 * Do not install adnstest_s.
64 * _submit returns ENOSYS, not adns_s_unknownquery; documented, tested.
65 * <adns.h> includes <sys/types.h>, <sys/time.h>, <unistd.h>.

69 adns (0.3) unstable; urgency=low
70
71 Incompatible changes:
72 * Low adns_status values (below adns_s_max_tempfail) renumbered to make
73 room for future locally-induced and locally-detected errors.
74 * Event loop functions for use by select(2) renamed and tidied up.
75
76 Features / improvements:
77 * New adns_errabbrev() for getting status abbreviation strings.
78 * regress/checkall prints summary list of failed tests, if any.
79 * Event loop functions for poll(2), and some raw variants.
80 * adnstest has ability to use poll(2), and user can set initflags.
81 * checkall prints passed list as well as failed list, if any failed.
82 * You can iterate over outstanding queries (but only once at a time).
83
84 Bugfixes:
85 * Non-RFC822 mailbox `domain' formatting now works, and clarified.
86 * Rejection of bad characters in domains (without quoteok) works.
87 * Clean up parents from adns->childw (otherwise would abort/segfault).
88 * In adnstest, allocate enough space for, and terminate, query types.
89 * In adnstest, don't print errno values as adns_status values.
90
91 * Added TODO file.
92 * Made adnstest.c test context pointers.

96 adns (0.2) experimental; urgency=low
97
98 Portability fixes for compilation on various platforms:
99 * Include <sys/socket.h> and <netinet/in.h> in files with <arpa/inet.h>.
100 * Don't use GCC union assignment feature (.rrs=0 => .rrs.untyped=0).
101 * Explictly cast things to [const] struct sockaddr* in syscall args.
102 * Check whether we need -lsocket.
103 * Include <sys/times.h> in a few more files.
104 * Include <unistd.h> and <sys/time.h> for select.
105 * Look for inet_aton and inet_ntoa (in -lnsl and -lsocket).
106 * LDLIBS removed from dependency lists (some makes don't support this).
107 * An `ambiguous else' warning from some compilers in types.c is removed.
108
109 Other changes:
110 * Added COPYING (copy of the GPL).
111 * Regression test failure output improved.
112 * Missing targets in regress/Makefile.in added.
113 * Regression test doesn't rely on value of fcntl flags eg O_NONBLOCK.
