30
31 Core library bugfixes:
32 * Avoid infinite timeouts, causing lockup, when they should be zero !
33 * TCP handling revamped (avoids undefined behaviour due to reentrancy).
34 * Do not fail assertion if _qf_owner, _qf_search, domain ends in `.'.
35 * Many memory leaks fixed.
36
37 Cool new utility:
38 * adnsresfilter is like `cat' but converts addresses to names without
39 delaying the output. Pipe `netstat -n', `tcpdump -ln', etc. into it.
40
41 Test and client program bug and portability fixes:
42 * Dynamic library building works properly.
43 * adnshost prints somewhat better messages about some wrong usages.
44 * Include <stdlib.h> and <sys/types.h> in adnshost.h.
45 * adnslogres: parsing and error checking improved (Tony Finch).
46 * Regression tests can cope with zero-length reads.
47 * Regression tests check for memory leaks.
48 * adnstest copes with empty query type list.
49 * adnstest uninitialised memory bug fixed.
50
51 General improvements
52 * Better control of adnshost output and error messages (new -F options).
53 * New adns_if_logpid option (functionality suggested by Tony Finch).
54 * New fanftest test program from Tony Finch (ignored by `make install').
55 * Reads /etc/resolv-adns.conf if it exists.
56 * Declare flags parameters as enums again, not ints.

60 adns (0.5) unstable; urgency=high
61
62 New features:
63 * adnslogres, ~100x faster replacement for Apache logresolve;
64 Thanks to Tony Finch for the program and the performance figure.
65 * Internal consistency checking with assert if right options set.
66 * adns_wait_poll function like adns_wait but uses poll, not select.
67 * adns_reverse_submit function for easy in-addr queries.
68 * adns_errtypeabbrev funcion for getting eg "permfail" from _s_nodata.
69 * adnshost utility for scripts and the like (rather alpha).
70
71 Incompatible changes:
72 * RRs with mailboxes never rejected due to strange chars if _raw.
73 * Lack of a mailbox produces `.' not `<>'.
74 * Better usage messages (and no default query domain) for adnstest.
75 * Return EAGAIN from _check instead of EWOULDBLOCK.
76 * adns_rr_info on _r_mx etc. shows status type abbrev and status number.
77
78 Bugfixes:
79 * Do not invoke __autosys indirectly from __procdgram (result: coredump
80 usually in memmove, unless adns_if_noautosys was used).
81 * Do not scramble innards when a query on the output queue is cancelled.
82 * Do not close tcp socket twice.
83 * Mailboxes containing spaces in their names are quoted.
84 * Give ESRCH, not EAGAIN, if _check called with no queries outstanding.
85 * adns_rr_hostaddr naddrs is -1 on temporary failure (as documented).
86 * Reject TXT RRs with no strings.
87 * Correct error messages for qname CNAME foo, foo CNAME bar.
88 * adns_processany actually does something.
89 * Fixed typos in adns.h.
90
91 General improvements:
92 * Promise not to change fds in adns_beforepoll (if now is specified).
93 * Improved textual error string for _s_prohibitedcname.
94 * New comment in adns_processany and return 0 (not r which is 0).
95 * Documentation of resolv.conf directives and options, and of environment
96 variables understood, in adns.h
97 * Regression test scripts set EF_DISABLE_BANNER (for Electric Fence).
98
99 Portability and build improvements:
100 * Give install the '-c' flag (otherwise some delete the original !).
101 * Do not remove top-level Makefile on `make clean'.
102 * Don't complain so much about poll(2) tests if not available.
103 * Do not give -u 0 -g 0 options to install.
104 * Remove trailing , from some enums in adns.h.
105 * Dynamically linked clients now made with -l, so as to avoid rpath.
106 * Do not use $^ in make rules (should help with non-GNU make).
107 * Declare flags parameters as ints not enums because C++ is crap.

111 adns (0.4) unstable; urgency=high
112
113 General important bugfixes:
114 * make _qf_owner work if _qf_search not specified, and test it (oops!)
115 * ads->configerrno now initialised (in setup.c).
116 * timercmp(,,<=) doesn't work - use !timercmp(,,>).
117 * Changed memory semantics of internal queries to fix bugs.
118 * Restarting a TCP-using query (eg due to CNAME) doesn't abort.
119
120 Fixes for handling of broken kinds of reply:
121 * Only accept a reply from the subset of servers we sent the query.
122 * Ignore CNAME(s) in answer after RR(s) (and test).
123
124 Other bugfixes and improvements:
125 * adns_s_systemfail is in table of errors (for eg adns_strerror).
126 * Do not ship config.cache, Makefile, etc.
127 * Improvements to install instructions, TODO, etc.
128 * Regression tests compile on systems without poll(2).
129 * Do not install adnstest_s.
130 * _submit returns ENOSYS, not adns_s_unknownquery; documented, tested.
131 * <adns.h> includes <sys/types.h>, <sys/time.h>, <unistd.h>.

135 adns (0.3) unstable; urgency=low
136
137 Incompatible changes:
138 * Low adns_status values (below adns_s_max_tempfail) renumbered to make
139 room for future locally-induced and locally-detected errors.
140 * Event loop functions for use by select(2) renamed and tidied up.
141
142 Features / improvements:
143 * New adns_errabbrev() for getting status abbreviation strings.
144 * regress/checkall prints summary list of failed tests, if any.
145 * Event loop functions for poll(2), and some raw variants.
146 * adnstest has ability to use poll(2), and user can set initflags.
147 * checkall prints passed list as well as failed list, if any failed.
148 * You can iterate over outstanding queries (but only once at a time).
149
150 Bugfixes:
151 * Non-RFC822 mailbox `domain' formatting now works, and clarified.
152 * Rejection of bad characters in domains (without quoteok) works.
153 * Clean up parents from adns->childw (otherwise would abort/segfault).
154 * In adnstest, allocate enough space for, and terminate, query types.
155 * In adnstest, don't print errno values as adns_status values.
156
157 * Added TODO file.
158 * Made adnstest.c test context pointers.

163
164 Portability fixes for compilation on various platforms:
165 * Include <sys/socket.h> and <netinet/in.h> in files with <arpa/inet.h>.
166 * Don't use GCC union assignment feature (.rrs=0 => .rrs.untyped=0).
167 * Explictly cast things to [const] struct sockaddr* in syscall args.
168 * Check whether we need -lsocket.
169 * Include <sys/times.h> in a few more files.
170 * Include <unistd.h> and <sys/time.h> for select.
171 * Look for inet_aton and inet_ntoa (in -lnsl and -lsocket).
172 * LDLIBS removed from dependency lists (some makes don't support this).
173 * An `ambiguous else' warning from some compilers in types.c is removed.
174
175 Other changes:
176 * Added COPYING (copy of the GPL).
177 * Regression test failure output improved.
178 * Missing targets in regress/Makefile.in added.
179 * Regression test doesn't rely on value of fcntl flags eg O_NONBLOCK.
