   1 adns (0.6) unstable; urgency=high
   2
   3   Core library bugfixes:
   4   * Do not fail assertion if _qf_owner, _qf_search, domain ends in `.'.
   5   * Avoid infinite timeouts, causing lockup, when they should be zero !
   6   * TCP handling revamped (avoids undefined behaviour due to reentrancy).
   7   * Many memory leaks fixed.
   8
   9   Test and client program bug and portability fixes:
  10   * Dynamic library building works properly.
  11   * adnshost prints somewhat better messages about some wrong usages.
  12   * Include <stdlib.h> and <sys/types.h> in adnshost.h.
  13   * adnslogres: parsing and error checking improved (Tony Finch).
  14   * Regression tests can cope with zero-length reads.
  15   * Regression tests check for memory leaks.
  16   * adnstest copes with empty query type list.
  17   * adnstest uninitialised memory bug fixed.
  18
  19   General improvements
  20   * New adns_if_logpid option (functionality suggested by Tony Finch).
  21   * Better control of adnshost output and error messages (new -F options).
  22   * New fanftest test program from Tony Finch.
  23   * Declare flags parameters as enums again, not ints.

  27 adns (0.5) unstable; urgency=high
  28
  29   New features:
  30   * adnslogres, ~100x faster replacement for Apache logresolve;
  31     Thanks to Tony Finch for the program and the performance figure.
  32   * Internal consistency checking with assert if right options set.
  33   * adns_wait_poll function like adns_wait but uses poll, not select.
  34   * adns_reverse_submit function for easy in-addr queries.
  35   * adns_errtypeabbrev funcion for getting eg "permfail" from _s_nodata.
  36   * adnshost utility for scripts and the like (rather alpha).
  37
  38   Incompatible changes:
  39   * RRs with mailboxes never rejected due to strange chars if _raw.
  40   * Lack of a mailbox produces `.' not `<>'.
  41   * Better usage messages (and no default query domain) for adnstest.
  42   * Return EAGAIN from _check instead of EWOULDBLOCK.
  43   * adns_rr_info on _r_mx etc. shows status type abbrev and status number.
  44
  45   Bugfixes:
  46   * Do not invoke __autosys indirectly from __procdgram (result: coredump
  47     usually in memmove, unless adns_if_noautosys was used).
  48   * Do not scramble innards when a query on the output queue is cancelled.
  49   * Do not close tcp socket twice.
  50   * Mailboxes containing spaces in their names are quoted.
  51   * Give ESRCH, not EAGAIN, if _check called with no queries outstanding.
  52   * adns_rr_hostaddr naddrs is -1 on temporary failure (as documented).
  53   * Reject TXT RRs with no strings.
  54   * Correct error messages for qname CNAME foo, foo CNAME bar.
  55   * adns_processany actually does something.
  56   * Fixed typos in adns.h.
  57
  58   General improvements:
  59   * Promise not to change fds in adns_beforepoll (if now is specified).
  60   * Improved textual error string for _s_prohibitedcname.
  61   * New comment in adns_processany and return 0 (not r which is 0).
  62   * Documentation of resolv.conf directives and options, and of environment
  63     variables understood, in adns.h
  64   * Regression test scripts set EF_DISABLE_BANNER (for Electric Fence).
  65
  66   Portability and build improvements:
  67   * Give install the '-c' flag (otherwise some delete the original !).
  68   * Do not remove top-level Makefile on `make clean'.
  69   * Don't complain so much about poll(2) tests if not available.
  70   * Do not give -u 0 -g 0 options to install.
  71   * Remove trailing , from some enums in adns.h.
  72   * Dynamically linked clients now made with -l, so as to avoid rpath.
  73   * Do not use $^ in make rules (should help with non-GNU make).
  74   * Declare flags parameters as ints not enums because C++ is crap.

  78 adns (0.4) unstable; urgency=high
  79
  80   General important bugfixes:
  81   * make _qf_owner work if _qf_search not specified, and test it (oops!)
  82   * ads->configerrno now initialised (in setup.c).
  83   * timercmp(,,<=) doesn't work - use !timercmp(,,>).
  84   * Changed memory semantics of internal queries to fix bugs.
  85   * Restarting a TCP-using query (eg due to CNAME) doesn't abort.
  86
  87   Fixes for handling of broken kinds of reply:
  88   * Only accept a reply from the subset of servers we sent the query.
  89   * Ignore CNAME(s) in answer after RR(s) (and test).
  90
  91   Other bugfixes and improvements:
  92   * adns_s_systemfail is in table of errors (for eg adns_strerror).
  93   * Do not ship config.cache, Makefile, etc.
  94   * Improvements to install instructions, TODO, etc.
  95   * Regression tests compile on systems without poll(2).
  96   * Do not install adnstest_s.
  97   * _submit returns ENOSYS, not adns_s_unknownquery; documented, tested.
  98   * <adns.h> includes <sys/types.h>, <sys/time.h>, <unistd.h>.

 102 adns (0.3) unstable; urgency=low
 103
 104   Incompatible changes:
 105   * Low adns_status values (below adns_s_max_tempfail) renumbered to make
 106     room for future locally-induced and locally-detected errors.
 107   * Event loop functions for use by select(2) renamed and tidied up.
 108
 109   Features / improvements:
 110   * New adns_errabbrev() for getting status abbreviation strings.
 111   * regress/checkall prints summary list of failed tests, if any.
 112   * Event loop functions for poll(2), and some raw variants.
 113   * adnstest has ability to use poll(2), and user can set initflags.
 114   * checkall prints passed list as well as failed list, if any failed.
 115   * You can iterate over outstanding queries (but only once at a time).
 116
 117   Bugfixes:
 118   * Non-RFC822 mailbox `domain' formatting now works, and clarified.
 119   * Rejection of bad characters in domains (without quoteok) works.
 120   * Clean up parents from adns->childw (otherwise would abort/segfault).
 121   * In adnstest, allocate enough space for, and terminate, query types.
 122   * In adnstest, don't print errno values as adns_status values.
 123
 124   * Added TODO file.
 125   * Made adnstest.c test context pointers.

 129 adns (0.2) experimental; urgency=low
 130
 131   Portability fixes for compilation on various platforms:
 132   * Include <sys/socket.h> and <netinet/in.h> in files with <arpa/inet.h>.
 133   * Don't use GCC union assignment feature (.rrs=0 => .rrs.untyped=0).
 134   * Explictly cast things to [const] struct sockaddr* in syscall args.
 135   * Check whether we need -lsocket.
 136   * Include <sys/times.h> in a few more files.
 137   * Include <unistd.h> and <sys/time.h> for select.
 138   * Look for inet_aton and inet_ntoa (in -lnsl and -lsocket).
 139   * LDLIBS removed from dependency lists (some makes don't support this).
 140   * An `ambiguous else' warning from some compilers in types.c is removed.
 141
 142   Other changes:
 143   * Added COPYING (copy of the GPL).
 144   * Regression test failure output improved.
 145   * Missing targets in regress/Makefile.in added.
 146   * Regression test doesn't rely on value of fcntl flags eg O_NONBLOCK.
