1 adns (1.3); urgency=low

3 Portability fixes:
4 * Cast ptrdiff_t to int for %.*s length in adnsheloex and adnslogres,
5 as is required. (Report from Jim Meyering.)
6 * In configure.in, quote macro name argument to define() to
7 suppress spurious autoconf error. (Report from Mihai Ibanescu.)
8 * Use autoconf's values for {bin,lib,include}dir rather than inventing
9 our own from @exec_prefix@, making configure --libdir work.
10 (Patch from Mihai Ibanescu.)
11 * Remove spurious `_' from {bin,lib,include}dir Makefile variables.
12 (Report from Mihai Ibanescu.)
13 * Do away with `mismatch' variable in parse.c:adns__findrr_anychk so that
14 overzealous GCC cannot complain about members of eo_fls being
15 uninitialised. (Report from Jim Meyering.)

20
21 New features:
22 * Support for SRV RRs.
23 * Support for unknown RR types (according to RFC3597) via adns_r_unknown.
24 * Allow `;'-comments in resolv.conf (report from Colin Charles).
25 * New adnsheloex client courtesy of Tony Finch.
26 * New adns_init_logfn etc. for having logging use a callback function.
27
28 Bugfixes:
29 * Fix error in prototype in definition of adns__parse_domain.
30 * Add missing ENOTSOCK to hcommon.c.m4 (was already in hcommon.c!)
31
32 Portability fixes prompted by Bernd Eckenfels, the Debian maintainer:
33 * Correct type of various printf arguments: ptrdiff_t != int.
34 * Do not print size of leaked blocks of memory (this causes
35 a spurious regression test failure on some platforms).
36 * Provide adns_if_none and adns_qf_none (which will help with compilers
37 which complain about plain `0' being passed where an enum is wanted).
38 * adnstest converts some errno values to EFOOBAR: all of the ones
39 mentioned in adns.h, at least. This makes the regression test
40 more portable (fixes problem noticed by Bernd Eckenfels).
41 * Add -Wno-pointer-sign if GCC has that option.
42
43 Documentation improvements:
44 * Add documentation comment by definition of adns_r_ptr_raw type enum.
45 * Document in adns.h EINVAL from adns_init meaning bad configuration.
46 * Include several new references to related programs to README.html.
47 * Redacted the TODO list.
48 * New LICENCE.WAIVERS file for GPL-incompatility workarounds.
49 * Clarified GPL-vs-LGPL: a bit less hostile and a bit more mercenary.
50 * Copyright notices updated.
51
52 Packaging changes:
53 * Update MINOR to 2 and DISTVERSION and ADNS_VERSION_STRING to 1.2.
54 * Reran autoconf/autoheader (autoconf Debian 2.13-54).
55 * Create $(bin_dir) and $(lib_dir) on `make install', and also
56 make a libadns.so.1 -> libadns.so.1.<minor> link. (Suggestions
57 and patch from Nix of esperi.org.uk.)
58 * Add .PHONY: install to Makefile, to help people with demented fs's.
59 * Darwin listed in INSTALL.
60
61 Minor test harness improvements:
62 * Hgettimeofday calls Tensurerecordfile (was Tensureinput/outputfile).
63 * Add bind(2) and listen(2) wrappers (for epithet, but harmless in adns).

67 adns (1.1); urgency=medium
68
69 Major bugfixes:
70 * Do not spin if connect() fails immediately (!)
71 * Stop searching on a CNAME (even if it's broken).
72 * When search list runs out, _qf_owner sets owner to query domain.
73 * Fix bogus multiple updates to p in transmit.c (!)
74
75 Portability improvements:
76 * Fix up spurious #undef's in hredirect.h.
77 * Don't use <sys/select.h> any more, it was a mistake made in pre-1.0
78 (and there doesn't seem to be much explanation why).
79 * Understand and sort of check OpenBSD `lookup' resolv.conf directive.
80 * #include <stdlib.h> in internal.h (for abort etc).
81 * Always #include <sys/types.h> before <sys/socket.h> (for FreeBSD 4.6).
82
83 Cosmetic and documentation improvements:
84 * Added wishlist entry re configurable port no.
85 * Problem with SERVFAIL in TODO.
86 * README.html: mentioned Jarle Aase's Windows port, and other fixes.
87 * Some better source code formatting/wrapping.

91 adns (1.0); urgency=medium
92
93 Bugfixes:
94 * Treat 8-bit characters in email addrs as RFC822 `special' (=> quote).
95 * Fix incorrect `compressed datagram contains loop' error.
96 * Actually compile shared libraries by default !
97 * Fix adnsresfilter usage message to include correct default timeout.
98
99 General improvements:
100 * adnshost, adnslogres, adnsresfilter have options for config override.
101 * adnsresfilter has --debug option.
102 * Improvements to adnslogres (incl. new -c option) from Tony Finch.
103 * adnslogres has --help option, all utilities support --version.
104 * Documentation improved somewhat, including new GPL-vs-LGPL file.
105
106 Changes for non-BETA release:
107 * Change shared library soname to 1.0.
108 * Do not install adnstest test utility.
109
110 Regression test improvements:
111 * Tests now include adnshost, adnslogres and adnsresfilter.
112 * Test cancellation both before and after query completion.
113
114 Portability fixes and cleanups:
115 * adnstest: setvbuf(stdout,...) before we do first output.
116 * Cope with compilers that don't do `inline'.
117 * Add and fix various missing system #includes.
118 * Find install-sh properly when we need to use it, and chmod it +x.
119 * Do not use variadic macro, use stdarg instead (adnslogres.c).
120 * Regression tests work even if some syscalls are already macros.
121 * #include "config.h" before "adns.h".
122 * Cast a sizeof(...) in src/event.c to unsigned long before printing.
123 * Add pre-generated versions of m4-generated files in regress/.
124 * Kill bogus warning, adh-main.c: `arg2' might be used uninitialized ...
125 * Add extra {...} near adnslogres.c:167 to kill spurious warning.
126 * Use `printf' instead of `echo -n'.
127 * Add list of tested platforms in INSTALL file.

131 adns (0.9) BETA; urgency=high
132
133 Bug fixes:
134 * Don't make _processany always kill the TCP connection with the message
135 `TCP connection failed: poll/select: exceptional condition detected'.
136 * Call MEM_ROUND in __transfer_interim (avoids assert fail
137 `qu->interim_allocd>=0' on some platforms eg 64 bit).
138 * adnsresfilter doesn't resolve textual prefixes of addresses (eg,
139 10.0.0.1 out of 10.0.0.123) if input happens to block at that point.
140 * Do not spin if TCP connection blocks for writing (and add test case).
141 * Fail queries if TCP dies repeatedly, rather than retrying many times.
142 * Do not abort in a couple of places if TCP unexpectedly broken.
143 * Do not free something twice if query fails and is then cancelled.
144
145 Portability/compilation fixes:
146 * Move `extern "C" {' to after #include <...>'s.
147 * Pass LDFLAGS from configure on to ld via settings.make.in.
148 * make clean deletes *.so and *.so.* files.
149 * New --disable-dynamic configure option for non-ELF systems.
150 * Use AC_PROG_INSTALL (=> perhaps install-sh), to avoid bad `install'.
151
152 Minor improvements:
153 * Do not print warning if sendto() gives EAGAIN.
154 * adnsresfilter default timeout changed to 1000ms.
155 * m1test script can invoke `hrecord' differently.
156 * regress/output-<case>.report file contains more useful info.
157 * TODO list and other docs updated slightly.
158 * Referrals with RD+RA set, or RCODE=Refused, don't generate warnings,
159 just debug messages. BIND does this kind of thing all the time.

162
163 adns (0.8) BETA; urgency=medium
164
165 Bugfixes:
166 * Race near adns_beforeselect which could cause infinite timeout fixed
167 (it's now less agressive, and will more often return a zero timeout.)
168 * Fixed infrequent race causing assertion failure in adns__tcp_broken
169 `ads->tcpstate == server_connecting || ads->tcpstate == server_ok'.
170 * Spurious `server failure on unidentifiable query' warning suppressed.
171 * If we get a referral, don't also always complain falsely about RD==0.
172 * adnslogres: cast chars to unsigned char before using ctype.h macros.
173 * In _beforeselect, global failure now means zero timeout, and in
174 tcp_events, really never try to do anything with the TCP connection if
175 act is zero. This might possibly cause an infinite delay (ie, lockup)
176 if things go badly wrong *and* a really unlikely race happens.
177 * Test suite `lines of syscall left' value is correct; !0 is failure.
178
179 Portability fixes:
180 * install-sh (from autoconf 2.12 Debian r13) included.
181 * adnslogres: do not call equivalent of printf("%.*s",0,(char*)0).
182
183 Documentation improvements:
184 * Security/performance note added, about local nameservers and DNSSEC.
185 * Documented that adns_rr_info _rr_hostaddr ( ) for address list
186 means permanent failure, and ? means temporary failure.
187 * Typo (*now for now in _beforeselect description) in adns.h fixed.
188 * Copyright notices updated.
189
190 Changes to produce more defensive code:
191 * In adns_wait, assert that the timeout is not infinite.
192 * Make qu->id start out as -2 when initially allocated.

195
196 adns (0.7) BETA; urgency=medium
197
198 * New adns_submit_reverse_any for eg RBL lookups, and corresponding
199 option to adnshost.
200 * README updated (from www home page).
201
202 * In answers, quote all except alphanums and - _ / + (and document).
203 * Don't reject specials in cnames even without adns_qf_quotefail_cname.
204 * Better checking of long domain names and labels in queries.
205 * answer->owner may be null on error. Documented, and adnshost copes.
206 * Better reporting of unexpected or weird replies from nameserver.
207 * Add test case for recursion (infinite loop) domain compression.

210
211 adns (0.6) BETA; urgency=high
212
213 Core library bugfixes:
214 * Avoid infinite timeouts, causing lockup, when they should be zero !
215 * TCP handling revamped (avoids undefined behaviour due to reentrancy).
216 * Do not fail assertion if _qf_owner, _qf_search, domain ends in `.'.
217 * Many memory leaks fixed.
218
219 Cool new utility:
220 * adnsresfilter is like `cat' but converts addresses to names without
221 delaying the output. Pipe `netstat -n', `tcpdump -ln', etc. into it.
222
223 Test and client program bug and portability fixes:
224 * Dynamic library building works properly.
225 * adnshost prints somewhat better messages about some wrong usages.
226 * Include <stdlib.h> and <sys/types.h> in adnshost.h.
227 * adnslogres: parsing and error checking improved (Tony Finch).
228 * Regression tests can cope with zero-length reads.
229 * Regression tests check for memory leaks.
230 * adnstest copes with empty query type list.
231 * adnstest uninitialised memory bug fixed.
232
233 General improvements
234 * Better control of adnshost output and error messages (new -F options).
235 * New adns_if_logpid option (functionality suggested by Tony Finch).
236 * New fanftest test program from Tony Finch (ignored by `make install').
237 * Reads /etc/resolv-adns.conf if it exists.
238 * Declare flags parameters as enums again, not ints.

242 adns (0.5) unstable; urgency=high
243
244 New features:
245 * adnslogres, ~100x faster replacement for Apache logresolve;
246 Thanks to Tony Finch for the program and the performance figure.
247 * Internal consistency checking with assert if right options set.
248 * adns_wait_poll function like adns_wait but uses poll, not select.
249 * adns_reverse_submit function for easy in-addr queries.
250 * adns_errtypeabbrev funcion for getting eg "permfail" from _s_nodata.
251 * adnshost utility for scripts and the like (rather alpha).
252
253 Incompatible changes:
254 * RRs with mailboxes never rejected due to strange chars if _raw.
255 * Lack of a mailbox produces `.' not `<>'.
256 * Better usage messages (and no default query domain) for adnstest.
257 * Return EAGAIN from _check instead of EWOULDBLOCK.
258 * adns_rr_info on _r_mx etc. shows status type abbrev and status number.
259
260 Bugfixes:
261 * Do not invoke __autosys indirectly from __procdgram (result: coredump
262 usually in memmove, unless adns_if_noautosys was used).
263 * Do not scramble innards when a query on the output queue is cancelled.
264 * Do not close tcp socket twice.
265 * Mailboxes containing spaces in their names are quoted.
266 * Give ESRCH, not EAGAIN, if _check called with no queries outstanding.
267 * adns_rr_hostaddr naddrs is -1 on temporary failure (as documented).
268 * Reject TXT RRs with no strings.
269 * Correct error messages for qname CNAME foo, foo CNAME bar.
270 * adns_processany actually does something.
271 * Fixed typos in adns.h.
272
273 General improvements:
274 * Promise not to change fds in adns_beforepoll (if now is specified).
275 * Improved textual error string for _s_prohibitedcname.
276 * New comment in adns_processany and return 0 (not r which is 0).
277 * Documentation of resolv.conf directives and options, and of environment
278 variables understood, in adns.h
279 * Regression test scripts set EF_DISABLE_BANNER (for Electric Fence).
280
281 Portability and build improvements:
282 * Give install the '-c' flag (otherwise some delete the original !).
283 * Do not remove top-level Makefile on `make clean'.
284 * Don't complain so much about poll(2) tests if not available.
285 * Do not give -u 0 -g 0 options to install.
286 * Remove trailing , from some enums in adns.h.
287 * Dynamically linked clients now made with -l, so as to avoid rpath.
288 * Do not use $^ in make rules (should help with non-GNU make).
289 * Declare flags parameters as ints not enums because C++ is crap.

294
295 General important bugfixes:
296 * make _qf_owner work if _qf_search not specified, and test it (oops!)
297 * ads->configerrno now initialised (in setup.c).
298 * timercmp(,,<=) doesn't work - use !timercmp(,,>).
299 * Changed memory semantics of internal queries to fix bugs.
300 * Restarting a TCP-using query (eg due to CNAME) doesn't abort.
301
302 Fixes for handling of broken kinds of reply:
303 * Only accept a reply from the subset of servers we sent the query.
304 * Ignore CNAME(s) in answer after RR(s) (and test).
305
306 Other bugfixes and improvements:
307 * adns_s_systemfail is in table of errors (for eg adns_strerror).
308 * Do not ship config.cache, Makefile, etc.
309 * Improvements to install instructions, TODO, etc.
310 * Regression tests compile on systems without poll(2).
311 * Do not install adnstest_s.
312 * _submit returns ENOSYS, not adns_s_unknownquery; documented, tested.
313 * <adns.h> includes <sys/types.h>, <sys/time.h>, <unistd.h>.

317 adns (0.3) unstable; urgency=low
318
319 Incompatible changes:
320 * Low adns_status values (below adns_s_max_tempfail) renumbered to make
321 room for future locally-induced and locally-detected errors.
322 * Event loop functions for use by select(2) renamed and tidied up.
323
324 Features / improvements:
325 * New adns_errabbrev() for getting status abbreviation strings.
326 * regress/checkall prints summary list of failed tests, if any.
327 * Event loop functions for poll(2), and some raw variants.
328 * adnstest has ability to use poll(2), and user can set initflags.
329 * checkall prints passed list as well as failed list, if any failed.
330 * You can iterate over outstanding queries (but only once at a time).
331
332 Bugfixes:
333 * Non-RFC822 mailbox `domain' formatting now works, and clarified.
334 * Rejection of bad characters in domains (without quoteok) works.
335 * Clean up parents from adns->childw (otherwise would abort/segfault).
336 * In adnstest, allocate enough space for, and terminate, query types.
337 * In adnstest, don't print errno values as adns_status values.
338
339 * Added TODO file.
340 * Made adnstest.c test context pointers.

345
346 Portability fixes for compilation on various platforms:
347 * Include <sys/socket.h> and <netinet/in.h> in files with <arpa/inet.h>.

355 * An `ambiguous else' warning from some compilers in types.c is removed.
356
357 Other changes:
358 * Added COPYING (copy of the GPL).
359 * Regression test failure output improved.
