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

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

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

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

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