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

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

75 adns (0.3) unstable; urgency=low
76
77 Incompatible changes:
78 * Low adns_status values (below adns_s_max_tempfail) renumbered to make
79 room for future locally-induced and locally-detected errors.
80 * Event loop functions for use by select(2) renamed and tidied up.
81
82 Features / improvements:
83 * New adns_errabbrev() for getting status abbreviation strings.
84 * regress/checkall prints summary list of failed tests, if any.
85 * Event loop functions for poll(2), and some raw variants.
86 * adnstest has ability to use poll(2), and user can set initflags.
87 * checkall prints passed list as well as failed list, if any failed.
88 * You can iterate over outstanding queries (but only once at a time).
89
90 Bugfixes:
91 * Non-RFC822 mailbox `domain' formatting now works, and clarified.
92 * Rejection of bad characters in domains (without quoteok) works.
93 * Clean up parents from adns->childw (otherwise would abort/segfault).
94 * In adnstest, allocate enough space for, and terminate, query types.
95 * In adnstest, don't print errno values as adns_status values.
96
97 * Added TODO file.
98 * Made adnstest.c test context pointers.

102 adns (0.2) experimental; urgency=low
103
104 Portability fixes for compilation on various platforms:
105 * Include <sys/socket.h> and <netinet/in.h> in files with <arpa/inet.h>.
106 * Don't use GCC union assignment feature (.rrs=0 => .rrs.untyped=0).
107 * Explictly cast things to [const] struct sockaddr* in syscall args.
108 * Check whether we need -lsocket.
109 * Include <sys/times.h> in a few more files.
110 * Include <unistd.h> and <sys/time.h> for select.
111 * Look for inet_aton and inet_ntoa (in -lnsl and -lsocket).
112 * LDLIBS removed from dependency lists (some makes don't support this).
113 * An `ambiguous else' warning from some compilers in types.c is removed.
114
115 Other changes:
116 * Added COPYING (copy of the GPL).
117 * Regression test failure output improved.
118 * Missing targets in regress/Makefile.in added.
119 * Regression test doesn't rely on value of fcntl flags eg O_NONBLOCK.
