4 * Do not spin if connect() fails immediately (!)
5 * Stop searching on a CNAME (even if it's broken).
6 * When search list runs out, _qf_owner sets owner to query domain.
7 * Don't use <sys/select.h> any more, it was a mistake made in pre-1.0
8 (and there doesn't seem to be much explanation why).
9 * Understand and sort of check OpenBSD `lookup' resolv.conf directive.
10 * Always #include <sys/types.h> before <sys/socket.h> (for FreeBSD 4.6).
11 * Added wishlist entry re configurable port no.
12 * Problem with SERVFAIL in TODO.
13 * Mentioned Jarle Aase's Windows port in README.html.
14 * Some better source code formatting/wrapping in a few places.
18 adns (1.0); urgency=medium
21 * Treat 8-bit characters in email addrs as RFC822 `special' (=> quote).
22 * Fix incorrect `compressed datagram contains loop' error.
23 * Actually compile shared libraries by default !
24 * Fix adnsresfilter usage message to include correct default timeout.
27 * adnshost, adnslogres, adnsresfilter have options for config override.
28 * adnsresfilter has --debug option.
29 * Improvements to adnslogres (incl. new -c option) from Tony Finch.
30 * adnslogres has --help option, all utilities support --version.
31 * Documentation improved somewhat, including new GPL-vs-LGPL file.
33 Changes for non-BETA release:
34 * Change shared library soname to 1.0.
35 * Do not install adnstest test utility.
37 Regression test improvements:
38 * Tests now include adnshost, adnslogres and adnsresfilter.
39 * Test cancellation both before and after query completion.
41 Portability fixes and cleanups:
42 * adnstest: setvbuf(stdout,...) before we do first output.
43 * Cope with compilers that don't do `inline'.
44 * Add and fix various missing system #includes.
45 * Find install-sh properly when we need to use it, and chmod it +x.
46 * Do not use variadic macro, use stdarg instead (adnslogres.c).
47 * Regression tests work even if some syscalls are already macros.
48 * #include "config.h" before "adns.h".
49 * Cast a sizeof(...) in src/event.c to unsigned long before printing.
50 * Add pre-generated versions of m4-generated files in regress/.
51 * Kill bogus warning, adh-main.c: `arg2' might be used uninitialized ...
52 * Add extra {...} near adnslogres.c:167 to kill spurious warning.
53 * Use `printf' instead of `echo -n'.
54 * Add list of tested platforms in INSTALL file.

58 adns (0.9) BETA; urgency=high
61 * Don't make _processany always kill the TCP connection with the message
62 `TCP connection failed: poll/select: exceptional condition detected'.
63 * Call MEM_ROUND in __transfer_interim (avoids assert fail
64 `qu->interim_allocd>=0' on some platforms eg 64 bit).
65 * adnsresfilter doesn't resolve textual prefixes of addresses (eg,
66 10.0.0.1 out of 10.0.0.123) if input happens to block at that point.
67 * Do not spin if TCP connection blocks for writing (and add test case).
68 * Fail queries if TCP dies repeatedly, rather than retrying many times.
69 * Do not abort in a couple of places if TCP unexpectedly broken.
70 * Do not free something twice if query fails and is then cancelled.
72 Portability/compilation fixes:
73 * Move `extern "C" {' to after #include <...>'s.
74 * Pass LDFLAGS from configure on to ld via settings.make.in.
75 * make clean deletes *.so and *.so.* files.
76 * New --disable-dynamic configure option for non-ELF systems.
77 * Use AC_PROG_INSTALL (=> perhaps install-sh), to avoid bad `install'.
80 * Do not print warning if sendto() gives EAGAIN.
81 * adnsresfilter default timeout changed to 1000ms.
82 * m1test script can invoke `hrecord' differently.
83 * regress/output-<case>.report file contains more useful info.
84 * TODO list and other docs updated slightly.
85 * Referrals with RD+RA set, or RCODE=Refused, don't generate warnings,
86 just debug messages. BIND does this kind of thing all the time.

90 adns (0.8) BETA; urgency=medium
93 * Race near adns_beforeselect which could cause infinite timeout fixed
94 (it's now less agressive, and will more often return a zero timeout.)
95 * Fixed infrequent race causing assertion failure in adns__tcp_broken
96 `ads->tcpstate == server_connecting || ads->tcpstate == server_ok'.
97 * Spurious `server failure on unidentifiable query' warning suppressed.
98 * If we get a referral, don't also always complain falsely about RD==0.
99 * adnslogres: cast chars to unsigned char before using ctype.h macros.
100 * In _beforeselect, global failure now means zero timeout, and in
101 tcp_events, really never try to do anything with the TCP connection if
102 act is zero. This might possibly cause an infinite delay (ie, lockup)
103 if things go badly wrong *and* a really unlikely race happens.
104 * Test suite `lines of syscall left' value is correct; !0 is failure.
107 * install-sh (from autoconf 2.12 Debian r13) included.
108 * adnslogres: do not call equivalent of printf("%.*s",0,(char*)0).
110 Documentation improvements:
111 * Security/performance note added, about local nameservers and DNSSEC.
112 * Documented that adns_rr_info _rr_hostaddr ( ) for address list
113 means permanent failure, and ? means temporary failure.
114 * Typo (*now for now in _beforeselect description) in adns.h fixed.
115 * Copyright notices updated.
117 Changes to produce more defensive code:
118 * In adns_wait, assert that the timeout is not infinite.
119 * Make qu->id start out as -2 when initially allocated.

123 adns (0.7) BETA; urgency=medium
125 * New adns_submit_reverse_any for eg RBL lookups, and corresponding
127 * README updated (from www home page).
129 * In answers, quote all except alphanums and - _ / + (and document).
130 * Don't reject specials in cnames even without adns_qf_quotefail_cname.
131 * Better checking of long domain names and labels in queries.
132 * answer->owner may be null on error. Documented, and adnshost copes.
133 * Better reporting of unexpected or weird replies from nameserver.
134 * Add test case for recursion (infinite loop) domain compression.

138 adns (0.6) BETA; urgency=high
140 Core library bugfixes:
141 * Avoid infinite timeouts, causing lockup, when they should be zero !
142 * TCP handling revamped (avoids undefined behaviour due to reentrancy).
143 * Do not fail assertion if _qf_owner, _qf_search, domain ends in `.'.
144 * Many memory leaks fixed.
147 * adnsresfilter is like `cat' but converts addresses to names without
148 delaying the output. Pipe `netstat -n', `tcpdump -ln', etc. into it.
150 Test and client program bug and portability fixes:
151 * Dynamic library building works properly.
152 * adnshost prints somewhat better messages about some wrong usages.
153 * Include <stdlib.h> and <sys/types.h> in adnshost.h.
154 * adnslogres: parsing and error checking improved (Tony Finch).
155 * Regression tests can cope with zero-length reads.
156 * Regression tests check for memory leaks.
157 * adnstest copes with empty query type list.
158 * adnstest uninitialised memory bug fixed.
161 * Better control of adnshost output and error messages (new -F options).
162 * New adns_if_logpid option (functionality suggested by Tony Finch).
163 * New fanftest test program from Tony Finch (ignored by `make install').
164 * Reads /etc/resolv-adns.conf if it exists.
165 * Declare flags parameters as enums again, not ints.

169 adns (0.5) unstable; urgency=high
172 * adnslogres, ~100x faster replacement for Apache logresolve;
173 Thanks to Tony Finch for the program and the performance figure.
174 * Internal consistency checking with assert if right options set.
175 * adns_wait_poll function like adns_wait but uses poll, not select.
176 * adns_reverse_submit function for easy in-addr queries.
177 * adns_errtypeabbrev funcion for getting eg "permfail" from _s_nodata.
178 * adnshost utility for scripts and the like (rather alpha).
180 Incompatible changes:
181 * RRs with mailboxes never rejected due to strange chars if _raw.
182 * Lack of a mailbox produces `.' not `<>'.
183 * Better usage messages (and no default query domain) for adnstest.
184 * Return EAGAIN from _check instead of EWOULDBLOCK.
185 * adns_rr_info on _r_mx etc. shows status type abbrev and status number.
188 * Do not invoke __autosys indirectly from __procdgram (result: coredump
189 usually in memmove, unless adns_if_noautosys was used).
190 * Do not scramble innards when a query on the output queue is cancelled.
191 * Do not close tcp socket twice.
192 * Mailboxes containing spaces in their names are quoted.
193 * Give ESRCH, not EAGAIN, if _check called with no queries outstanding.
194 * adns_rr_hostaddr naddrs is -1 on temporary failure (as documented).
195 * Reject TXT RRs with no strings.
196 * Correct error messages for qname CNAME foo, foo CNAME bar.
197 * adns_processany actually does something.
198 * Fixed typos in adns.h.
200 General improvements:
201 * Promise not to change fds in adns_beforepoll (if now is specified).
202 * Improved textual error string for _s_prohibitedcname.
203 * New comment in adns_processany and return 0 (not r which is 0).
204 * Documentation of resolv.conf directives and options, and of environment
205 variables understood, in adns.h
206 * Regression test scripts set EF_DISABLE_BANNER (for Electric Fence).
208 Portability and build improvements:
209 * Give install the '-c' flag (otherwise some delete the original !).
210 * Do not remove top-level Makefile on `make clean'.
211 * Don't complain so much about poll(2) tests if not available.
212 * Do not give -u 0 -g 0 options to install.
213 * Remove trailing , from some enums in adns.h.
214 * Dynamically linked clients now made with -l, so as to avoid rpath.
215 * Do not use $^ in make rules (should help with non-GNU make).
216 * Declare flags parameters as ints not enums because C++ is crap.

220 adns (0.4) unstable; urgency=high
222 General important bugfixes:
223 * make _qf_owner work if _qf_search not specified, and test it (oops!)
224 * ads->configerrno now initialised (in setup.c).
225 * timercmp(,,<=) doesn't work - use !timercmp(,,>).
226 * Changed memory semantics of internal queries to fix bugs.
227 * Restarting a TCP-using query (eg due to CNAME) doesn't abort.
229 Fixes for handling of broken kinds of reply:
230 * Only accept a reply from the subset of servers we sent the query.
231 * Ignore CNAME(s) in answer after RR(s) (and test).
233 Other bugfixes and improvements:
234 * adns_s_systemfail is in table of errors (for eg adns_strerror).
235 * Do not ship config.cache, Makefile, etc.
236 * Improvements to install instructions, TODO, etc.
237 * Regression tests compile on systems without poll(2).
238 * Do not install adnstest_s.
239 * _submit returns ENOSYS, not adns_s_unknownquery; documented, tested.
240 * <adns.h> includes <sys/types.h>, <sys/time.h>, <unistd.h>.

248 room for future locally-induced and locally-detected errors.
249 * Event loop functions for use by select(2) renamed and tidied up.
251 Features / improvements:
252 * New adns_errabbrev() for getting status abbreviation strings.
253 * regress/checkall prints summary list of failed tests, if any.
254 * Event loop functions for poll(2), and some raw variants.
255 * adnstest has ability to use poll(2), and user can set initflags.
256 * checkall prints passed list as well as failed list, if any failed.
257 * You can iterate over outstanding queries (but only once at a time).
260 * Non-RFC822 mailbox `domain' formatting now works, and clarified.
261 * Rejection of bad characters in domains (without quoteok) works.
262 * Clean up parents from adns->childw (otherwise would abort/segfault).
263 * In adnstest, allocate enough space for, and terminate, query types.
264 * In adnstest, don't print errno values as adns_status values.
267 * Made adnstest.c test context pointers.

273 Portability fixes for compilation on various platforms:
274 * Include <sys/socket.h> and <netinet/in.h> in files with <arpa/inet.h>.
275 * Don't use GCC union assignment feature (.rrs=0 => .rrs.untyped=0).
