[adns] / changelog
1 uadns (0.8) BETA; urgency=low
2
3 * bug_if_query_done feature for debugging (SHOULD BE TAKEN OUT FOR RELEASE)
4
5 Bugfixes:
6 * Spurious `server failure on unidentifiable query' warning suppressed.
7 * adnslogres: cast chars to unsigned char before using ctype.h macros.
8 * In _beforeselect, global failure now means zero timeout, and in
9 tcp_events, really never try to do anything with the TCP connection if
10 act is zero. This might possibly cause an infinite delay (ie, lockup)
11 if things go badly wrong *and* a really unlikely race happens.
12 * Test suite `lines of syscall left' value is correct; !0 is failure.
13 * If we get a referral, don't also always complain falsely about RD==0.
14
15 Portability fixes:
16 * install-sh (from autoconf 2.12 Debian r13) included.
17
18 Documentation improvements:
19 * Security/performance note added, about local nameservers and DNSSEC.
20 * Documented that adns_rr_info _rr_hostaddr ( ) for address list
21 means permanent failure, and ? means temporary failure.
22 * Typo (*now for now in _beforeselect description) in adns.h fixed.
23
24 Changes to produce more defensive code:
25 * In adns_wait, assert that the timeout is not infinite.
26 * Make qu->id start out as -2 when initially allocated.

30 adns (0.7) BETA; urgency=medium
31
32 * New adns_submit_reverse_any for eg RBL lookups, and corresponding
33 option to adnshost.
34 * README updated (from www home page).
35
36 * In answers, quote all except alphanums and - _ / + (and document).
37 * Don't reject specials in cnames even without adns_qf_quotefail_cname.
38 * Better checking of long domain names and labels in queries.
39 * answer->owner may be null on error. Documented, and adnshost copes.
40 * Better reporting of unexpected or weird replies from nameserver.
41 * Add test case for recursion (infinite loop) domain compression.

45 adns (0.6) BETA; urgency=high
46
47 Core library bugfixes:
48 * Avoid infinite timeouts, causing lockup, when they should be zero !
49 * TCP handling revamped (avoids undefined behaviour due to reentrancy).
50 * Do not fail assertion if _qf_owner, _qf_search, domain ends in `.'.
51 * Many memory leaks fixed.
52
53 Cool new utility:
54 * adnsresfilter is like `cat' but converts addresses to names without
55 delaying the output. Pipe `netstat -n', `tcpdump -ln', etc. into it.
56
57 Test and client program bug and portability fixes:
58 * Dynamic library building works properly.
59 * adnshost prints somewhat better messages about some wrong usages.
60 * Include <stdlib.h> and <sys/types.h> in adnshost.h.
61 * adnslogres: parsing and error checking improved (Tony Finch).
62 * Regression tests can cope with zero-length reads.
63 * Regression tests check for memory leaks.
64 * adnstest copes with empty query type list.
65 * adnstest uninitialised memory bug fixed.
66
67 General improvements
68 * Better control of adnshost output and error messages (new -F options).
69 * New adns_if_logpid option (functionality suggested by Tony Finch).
70 * New fanftest test program from Tony Finch (ignored by `make install').
71 * Reads /etc/resolv-adns.conf if it exists.
72 * Declare flags parameters as enums again, not ints.

76 adns (0.5) unstable; urgency=high
77
78 New features:
79 * adnslogres, ~100x faster replacement for Apache logresolve;
80 Thanks to Tony Finch for the program and the performance figure.
81 * Internal consistency checking with assert if right options set.
82 * adns_wait_poll function like adns_wait but uses poll, not select.
83 * adns_reverse_submit function for easy in-addr queries.
84 * adns_errtypeabbrev funcion for getting eg "permfail" from _s_nodata.
85 * adnshost utility for scripts and the like (rather alpha).
86
87 Incompatible changes:
88 * RRs with mailboxes never rejected due to strange chars if _raw.
89 * Lack of a mailbox produces `.' not `<>'.
90 * Better usage messages (and no default query domain) for adnstest.
91 * Return EAGAIN from _check instead of EWOULDBLOCK.
92 * adns_rr_info on _r_mx etc. shows status type abbrev and status number.
93
94 Bugfixes:
95 * Do not invoke __autosys indirectly from __procdgram (result: coredump
96 usually in memmove, unless adns_if_noautosys was used).
97 * Do not scramble innards when a query on the output queue is cancelled.
98 * Do not close tcp socket twice.
99 * Mailboxes containing spaces in their names are quoted.
100 * Give ESRCH, not EAGAIN, if _check called with no queries outstanding.
101 * adns_rr_hostaddr naddrs is -1 on temporary failure (as documented).
102 * Reject TXT RRs with no strings.
103 * Correct error messages for qname CNAME foo, foo CNAME bar.
104 * adns_processany actually does something.
105 * Fixed typos in adns.h.
106
107 General improvements:
108 * Promise not to change fds in adns_beforepoll (if now is specified).
109 * Improved textual error string for _s_prohibitedcname.
110 * New comment in adns_processany and return 0 (not r which is 0).
111 * Documentation of resolv.conf directives and options, and of environment
112 variables understood, in adns.h
113 * Regression test scripts set EF_DISABLE_BANNER (for Electric Fence).
114
115 Portability and build improvements:
116 * Give install the '-c' flag (otherwise some delete the original !).
117 * Do not remove top-level Makefile on `make clean'.
118 * Don't complain so much about poll(2) tests if not available.
119 * Do not give -u 0 -g 0 options to install.
120 * Remove trailing , from some enums in adns.h.
121 * Dynamically linked clients now made with -l, so as to avoid rpath.
122 * Do not use $^ in make rules (should help with non-GNU make).
123 * Declare flags parameters as ints not enums because C++ is crap.

127 adns (0.4) unstable; urgency=high
128
129 General important bugfixes:
130 * make _qf_owner work if _qf_search not specified, and test it (oops!)
131 * ads->configerrno now initialised (in setup.c).
132 * timercmp(,,<=) doesn't work - use !timercmp(,,>).
133 * Changed memory semantics of internal queries to fix bugs.
134 * Restarting a TCP-using query (eg due to CNAME) doesn't abort.
135
136 Fixes for handling of broken kinds of reply:
137 * Only accept a reply from the subset of servers we sent the query.
138 * Ignore CNAME(s) in answer after RR(s) (and test).
139
140 Other bugfixes and improvements:
141 * adns_s_systemfail is in table of errors (for eg adns_strerror).
142 * Do not ship config.cache, Makefile, etc.
143 * Improvements to install instructions, TODO, etc.
144 * Regression tests compile on systems without poll(2).
145 * Do not install adnstest_s.
146 * _submit returns ENOSYS, not adns_s_unknownquery; documented, tested.
147 * <adns.h> includes <sys/types.h>, <sys/time.h>, <unistd.h>.

151 adns (0.3) unstable; urgency=low
152
153 Incompatible changes:
154 * Low adns_status values (below adns_s_max_tempfail) renumbered to make
155 room for future locally-induced and locally-detected errors.
156 * Event loop functions for use by select(2) renamed and tidied up.
157
158 Features / improvements:
159 * New adns_errabbrev() for getting status abbreviation strings.
160 * regress/checkall prints summary list of failed tests, if any.
161 * Event loop functions for poll(2), and some raw variants.
162 * adnstest has ability to use poll(2), and user can set initflags.
163 * checkall prints passed list as well as failed list, if any failed.
164 * You can iterate over outstanding queries (but only once at a time).
165
166 Bugfixes:
167 * Non-RFC822 mailbox `domain' formatting now works, and clarified.
168 * Rejection of bad characters in domains (without quoteok) works.
169 * Clean up parents from adns->childw (otherwise would abort/segfault).
170 * In adnstest, allocate enough space for, and terminate, query types.
171 * In adnstest, don't print errno values as adns_status values.
172
173 * Added TODO file.
174 * Made adnstest.c test context pointers.

178 adns (0.2) experimental; urgency=low
179
180 Portability fixes for compilation on various platforms:
181 * Include <sys/socket.h> and <netinet/in.h> in files with <arpa/inet.h>.
182 * Don't use GCC union assignment feature (.rrs=0 => .rrs.untyped=0).
183 * Explictly cast things to [const] struct sockaddr* in syscall args.
184 * Check whether we need -lsocket.
185 * Include <sys/times.h> in a few more files.
186 * Include <unistd.h> and <sys/time.h> for select.
187 * Look for inet_aton and inet_ntoa (in -lnsl and -lsocket).
188 * LDLIBS removed from dependency lists (some makes don't support this).
189 * An `ambiguous else' warning from some compilers in types.c is removed.
190
191 Other changes:
192 * Added COPYING (copy of the GPL).
193 * Regression test failure output improved.
194 * Missing targets in regress/Makefile.in added.
195 * Regression test doesn't rely on value of fcntl flags eg O_NONBLOCK.
