1 adns (0.8) BETA; urgency=medium
4 * Race near adns_beforeselect which could cause infinite timeout fixed
5 (it's now less agressive, and will more often return a zero timeout.)
6 * Fixed infrequent race causing assertion failure in adns__tcp_broken
7 `ads->tcpstate == server_connecting || ads->tcpstate == server_ok'.
8 * Spurious `server failure on unidentifiable query' warning suppressed.
9 * If we get a referral, don't also always complain falsely about RD==0.
10 * adnslogres: cast chars to unsigned char before using ctype.h macros.
11 * In _beforeselect, global failure now means zero timeout, and in
12 tcp_events, really never try to do anything with the TCP connection if
13 act is zero. This might possibly cause an infinite delay (ie, lockup)
14 if things go badly wrong *and* a really unlikely race happens.
15 * Test suite `lines of syscall left' value is correct; !0 is failure.
18 * install-sh (from autoconf 2.12 Debian r13) included.
19 * adnslogres: do not call equivalent of printf("%.*s",0,(char*)0).
21 Documentation improvements:
22 * Security/performance note added, about local nameservers and DNSSEC.
23 * Documented that adns_rr_info _rr_hostaddr ( ) for address list
24 means permanent failure, and ? means temporary failure.
25 * Typo (*now for now in _beforeselect description) in adns.h fixed.
27 Changes to produce more defensive code:
28 * In adns_wait, assert that the timeout is not infinite.
29 * Make qu->id start out as -2 when initially allocated.
33 adns (0.7) BETA; urgency=medium
35 * New adns_submit_reverse_any for eg RBL lookups, and corresponding
37 * README updated (from www home page).
39 * In answers, quote all except alphanums and - _ / + (and document).
40 * Don't reject specials in cnames even without adns_qf_quotefail_cname.
41 * Better checking of long domain names and labels in queries.
42 * answer->owner may be null on error. Documented, and adnshost copes.
43 * Better reporting of unexpected or weird replies from nameserver.
44 * Add test case for recursion (infinite loop) domain compression.

48 adns (0.6) BETA; urgency=high
50 Core library bugfixes:
51 * Avoid infinite timeouts, causing lockup, when they should be zero !
52 * TCP handling revamped (avoids undefined behaviour due to reentrancy).
53 * Do not fail assertion if _qf_owner, _qf_search, domain ends in `.'.
54 * Many memory leaks fixed.
57 * adnsresfilter is like `cat' but converts addresses to names without
58 delaying the output. Pipe `netstat -n', `tcpdump -ln', etc. into it.
60 Test and client program bug and portability fixes:
61 * Dynamic library building works properly.
62 * adnshost prints somewhat better messages about some wrong usages.
63 * Include <stdlib.h> and <sys/types.h> in adnshost.h.
64 * adnslogres: parsing and error checking improved (Tony Finch).
65 * Regression tests can cope with zero-length reads.
66 * Regression tests check for memory leaks.
67 * adnstest copes with empty query type list.
68 * adnstest uninitialised memory bug fixed.
71 * Better control of adnshost output and error messages (new -F options).
72 * New adns_if_logpid option (functionality suggested by Tony Finch).
73 * New fanftest test program from Tony Finch (ignored by `make install').
74 * Reads /etc/resolv-adns.conf if it exists.
75 * Declare flags parameters as enums again, not ints.

79 adns (0.5) unstable; urgency=high
82 * adnslogres, ~100x faster replacement for Apache logresolve;
83 Thanks to Tony Finch for the program and the performance figure.
84 * Internal consistency checking with assert if right options set.
85 * adns_wait_poll function like adns_wait but uses poll, not select.
86 * adns_reverse_submit function for easy in-addr queries.
87 * adns_errtypeabbrev funcion for getting eg "permfail" from _s_nodata.
88 * adnshost utility for scripts and the like (rather alpha).
91 * RRs with mailboxes never rejected due to strange chars if _raw.
92 * Lack of a mailbox produces `.' not `<>'.
93 * Better usage messages (and no default query domain) for adnstest.
94 * Return EAGAIN from _check instead of EWOULDBLOCK.
95 * adns_rr_info on _r_mx etc. shows status type abbrev and status number.
98 * Do not invoke __autosys indirectly from __procdgram (result: coredump
99 usually in memmove, unless adns_if_noautosys was used).
100 * Do not scramble innards when a query on the output queue is cancelled.
101 * Do not close tcp socket twice.
102 * Mailboxes containing spaces in their names are quoted.
103 * Give ESRCH, not EAGAIN, if _check called with no queries outstanding.
104 * adns_rr_hostaddr naddrs is -1 on temporary failure (as documented).
105 * Reject TXT RRs with no strings.
106 * Correct error messages for qname CNAME foo, foo CNAME bar.
107 * adns_processany actually does something.
108 * Fixed typos in adns.h.
110 General improvements:
111 * Promise not to change fds in adns_beforepoll (if now is specified).
112 * Improved textual error string for _s_prohibitedcname.
113 * New comment in adns_processany and return 0 (not r which is 0).
114 * Documentation of resolv.conf directives and options, and of environment
115 variables understood, in adns.h
116 * Regression test scripts set EF_DISABLE_BANNER (for Electric Fence).
118 Portability and build improvements:
119 * Give install the '-c' flag (otherwise some delete the original !).
120 * Do not remove top-level Makefile on `make clean'.
121 * Don't complain so much about poll(2) tests if not available.
122 * Do not give -u 0 -g 0 options to install.
123 * Remove trailing , from some enums in adns.h.
124 * Dynamically linked clients now made with -l, so as to avoid rpath.
125 * Do not use $^ in make rules (should help with non-GNU make).
126 * Declare flags parameters as ints not enums because C++ is crap.

130 adns (0.4) unstable; urgency=high
132 General important bugfixes:
133 * make _qf_owner work if _qf_search not specified, and test it (oops!)
134 * ads->configerrno now initialised (in setup.c).
135 * timercmp(,,<=) doesn't work - use !timercmp(,,>).
136 * Changed memory semantics of internal queries to fix bugs.
137 * Restarting a TCP-using query (eg due to CNAME) doesn't abort.
139 Fixes for handling of broken kinds of reply:
140 * Only accept a reply from the subset of servers we sent the query.
141 * Ignore CNAME(s) in answer after RR(s) (and test).
143 Other bugfixes and improvements:
144 * adns_s_systemfail is in table of errors (for eg adns_strerror).
145 * Do not ship config.cache, Makefile, etc.
146 * Improvements to install instructions, TODO, etc.
147 * Regression tests compile on systems without poll(2).
148 * Do not install adnstest_s.
149 * _submit returns ENOSYS, not adns_s_unknownquery; documented, tested.
150 * <adns.h> includes <sys/types.h>, <sys/time.h>, <unistd.h>.

154 adns (0.3) unstable; urgency=low
156 Incompatible changes:
157 * Low adns_status values (below adns_s_max_tempfail) renumbered to make
158 room for future locally-induced and locally-detected errors.
159 * Event loop functions for use by select(2) renamed and tidied up.
161 Features / improvements:
162 * New adns_errabbrev() for getting status abbreviation strings.
163 * regress/checkall prints summary list of failed tests, if any.
164 * Event loop functions for poll(2), and some raw variants.
165 * adnstest has ability to use poll(2), and user can set initflags.
166 * checkall prints passed list as well as failed list, if any failed.
167 * You can iterate over outstanding queries (but only once at a time).
170 * Non-RFC822 mailbox `domain' formatting now works, and clarified.
171 * Rejection of bad characters in domains (without quoteok) works.
172 * Clean up parents from adns->childw (otherwise would abort/segfault).
173 * In adnstest, allocate enough space for, and terminate, query types.
174 * In adnstest, don't print errno values as adns_status values.
177 * Made adnstest.c test context pointers.

181 adns (0.2) experimental; urgency=low
183 Portability fixes for compilation on various platforms:
184 * Include <sys/socket.h> and <netinet/in.h> in files with <arpa/inet.h>.
185 * Don't use GCC union assignment feature (.rrs=0 => .rrs.untyped=0).

187 * Check whether we need -lsocket.
188 * Include <sys/times.h> in a few more files.
189 * Include <unistd.h> and <sys/time.h> for select.
190 * Look for inet_aton and inet_ntoa (in -lnsl and -lsocket).
191 * LDLIBS removed from dependency lists (some makes don't support this).
192 * An `ambiguous else' warning from some compilers in types.c is removed.
195 * Added COPYING (copy of the GPL).
196 * Regression test failure output improved.
197 * Missing targets in regress/Makefile.in added.
198 * Regression test doesn't rely on value of fcntl flags eg O_NONBLOCK.
