11
12 Major bugfixes:
13 * Do not spin if connect() fails immediately (!)
14 * Stop searching on a CNAME (even if it's broken).
15 * When search list runs out, _qf_owner sets owner to query domain.
16 * Fix bogus multiple updates to p in transmit.c (!)
17
18 Portability improvements:
19 * Fix up spurious #undef's in hredirect.h.
20 * Don't use <sys/select.h> any more, it was a mistake made in pre-1.0
21 (and there doesn't seem to be much explanation why).
22 * Understand and sort of check OpenBSD `lookup' resolv.conf directive.
23 * #include <stdlib.h> in internal.h (for abort etc).
24 * Always #include <sys/types.h> before <sys/socket.h> (for FreeBSD 4.6).
25
26 Cosmetic and documentation improvements:
27 * Added wishlist entry re configurable port no.
28 * Problem with SERVFAIL in TODO.
29 * README.html: mentioned Jarle Aase's Windows port, and other fixes.
30 * Some better source code formatting/wrapping.

34 adns (1.0); urgency=medium
35
36 Bugfixes:
37 * Treat 8-bit characters in email addrs as RFC822 `special' (=> quote).
38 * Fix incorrect `compressed datagram contains loop' error.
39 * Actually compile shared libraries by default !
40 * Fix adnsresfilter usage message to include correct default timeout.
41
42 General improvements:
43 * adnshost, adnslogres, adnsresfilter have options for config override.
44 * adnsresfilter has --debug option.
45 * Improvements to adnslogres (incl. new -c option) from Tony Finch.
46 * adnslogres has --help option, all utilities support --version.
47 * Documentation improved somewhat, including new GPL-vs-LGPL file.
48
49 Changes for non-BETA release:
50 * Change shared library soname to 1.0.
51 * Do not install adnstest test utility.
52
53 Regression test improvements:
54 * Tests now include adnshost, adnslogres and adnsresfilter.
55 * Test cancellation both before and after query completion.
56
57 Portability fixes and cleanups:
58 * adnstest: setvbuf(stdout,...) before we do first output.
59 * Cope with compilers that don't do `inline'.
60 * Add and fix various missing system #includes.
61 * Find install-sh properly when we need to use it, and chmod it +x.
62 * Do not use variadic macro, use stdarg instead (adnslogres.c).
63 * Regression tests work even if some syscalls are already macros.
64 * #include "config.h" before "adns.h".
65 * Cast a sizeof(...) in src/event.c to unsigned long before printing.
66 * Add pre-generated versions of m4-generated files in regress/.
67 * Kill bogus warning, adh-main.c: `arg2' might be used uninitialized ...
68 * Add extra {...} near adnslogres.c:167 to kill spurious warning.
69 * Use `printf' instead of `echo -n'.
70 * Add list of tested platforms in INSTALL file.

74 adns (0.9) BETA; urgency=high
75
76 Bug fixes:
77 * Don't make _processany always kill the TCP connection with the message
78 `TCP connection failed: poll/select: exceptional condition detected'.
79 * Call MEM_ROUND in __transfer_interim (avoids assert fail
80 `qu->interim_allocd>=0' on some platforms eg 64 bit).
81 * adnsresfilter doesn't resolve textual prefixes of addresses (eg,
82 10.0.0.1 out of 10.0.0.123) if input happens to block at that point.
83 * Do not spin if TCP connection blocks for writing (and add test case).
84 * Fail queries if TCP dies repeatedly, rather than retrying many times.
85 * Do not abort in a couple of places if TCP unexpectedly broken.
86 * Do not free something twice if query fails and is then cancelled.
87
88 Portability/compilation fixes:
89 * Move `extern "C" {' to after #include <...>'s.
90 * Pass LDFLAGS from configure on to ld via settings.make.in.
91 * make clean deletes *.so and *.so.* files.
92 * New --disable-dynamic configure option for non-ELF systems.
93 * Use AC_PROG_INSTALL (=> perhaps install-sh), to avoid bad `install'.
94
95 Minor improvements:
96 * Do not print warning if sendto() gives EAGAIN.
97 * adnsresfilter default timeout changed to 1000ms.
98 * m1test script can invoke `hrecord' differently.
99 * regress/output-<case>.report file contains more useful info.
100 * TODO list and other docs updated slightly.
101 * Referrals with RD+RA set, or RCODE=Refused, don't generate warnings,
102 just debug messages. BIND does this kind of thing all the time.

105
106 adns (0.8) BETA; urgency=medium
107
108 Bugfixes:
109 * Race near adns_beforeselect which could cause infinite timeout fixed
110 (it's now less agressive, and will more often return a zero timeout.)
111 * Fixed infrequent race causing assertion failure in adns__tcp_broken
112 `ads->tcpstate == server_connecting || ads->tcpstate == server_ok'.
113 * Spurious `server failure on unidentifiable query' warning suppressed.
114 * If we get a referral, don't also always complain falsely about RD==0.
115 * adnslogres: cast chars to unsigned char before using ctype.h macros.
116 * In _beforeselect, global failure now means zero timeout, and in
117 tcp_events, really never try to do anything with the TCP connection if
118 act is zero. This might possibly cause an infinite delay (ie, lockup)
119 if things go badly wrong *and* a really unlikely race happens.
120 * Test suite `lines of syscall left' value is correct; !0 is failure.
121
122 Portability fixes:
123 * install-sh (from autoconf 2.12 Debian r13) included.
124 * adnslogres: do not call equivalent of printf("%.*s",0,(char*)0).
125
126 Documentation improvements:
127 * Security/performance note added, about local nameservers and DNSSEC.
128 * Documented that adns_rr_info _rr_hostaddr ( ) for address list
129 means permanent failure, and ? means temporary failure.
130 * Typo (*now for now in _beforeselect description) in adns.h fixed.
131 * Copyright notices updated.
132
133 Changes to produce more defensive code:
134 * In adns_wait, assert that the timeout is not infinite.
135 * Make qu->id start out as -2 when initially allocated.

138
139 adns (0.7) BETA; urgency=medium
140
141 * New adns_submit_reverse_any for eg RBL lookups, and corresponding
142 option to adnshost.
143 * README updated (from www home page).
144
145 * In answers, quote all except alphanums and - _ / + (and document).
146 * Don't reject specials in cnames even without adns_qf_quotefail_cname.
147 * Better checking of long domain names and labels in queries.
148 * answer->owner may be null on error. Documented, and adnshost copes.
149 * Better reporting of unexpected or weird replies from nameserver.
150 * Add test case for recursion (infinite loop) domain compression.

153
154 adns (0.6) BETA; urgency=high
155
156 Core library bugfixes:
157 * Avoid infinite timeouts, causing lockup, when they should be zero !
158 * TCP handling revamped (avoids undefined behaviour due to reentrancy).
159 * Do not fail assertion if _qf_owner, _qf_search, domain ends in `.'.
160 * Many memory leaks fixed.
161
162 Cool new utility:
163 * adnsresfilter is like `cat' but converts addresses to names without
164 delaying the output. Pipe `netstat -n', `tcpdump -ln', etc. into it.
165
166 Test and client program bug and portability fixes:
167 * Dynamic library building works properly.
168 * adnshost prints somewhat better messages about some wrong usages.
169 * Include <stdlib.h> and <sys/types.h> in adnshost.h.
170 * adnslogres: parsing and error checking improved (Tony Finch).
171 * Regression tests can cope with zero-length reads.
172 * Regression tests check for memory leaks.
173 * adnstest copes with empty query type list.
174 * adnstest uninitialised memory bug fixed.
175
176 General improvements
177 * Better control of adnshost output and error messages (new -F options).
178 * New adns_if_logpid option (functionality suggested by Tony Finch).
179 * New fanftest test program from Tony Finch (ignored by `make install').
180 * Reads /etc/resolv-adns.conf if it exists.
181 * Declare flags parameters as enums again, not ints.

185 adns (0.5) unstable; urgency=high
186
187 New features:
188 * adnslogres, ~100x faster replacement for Apache logresolve;
189 Thanks to Tony Finch for the program and the performance figure.
190 * Internal consistency checking with assert if right options set.
191 * adns_wait_poll function like adns_wait but uses poll, not select.
192 * adns_reverse_submit function for easy in-addr queries.
193 * adns_errtypeabbrev funcion for getting eg "permfail" from _s_nodata.
194 * adnshost utility for scripts and the like (rather alpha).
195
196 Incompatible changes:
197 * RRs with mailboxes never rejected due to strange chars if _raw.
198 * Lack of a mailbox produces `.' not `<>'.
199 * Better usage messages (and no default query domain) for adnstest.
200 * Return EAGAIN from _check instead of EWOULDBLOCK.
201 * adns_rr_info on _r_mx etc. shows status type abbrev and status number.
202
203 Bugfixes:
204 * Do not invoke __autosys indirectly from __procdgram (result: coredump
205 usually in memmove, unless adns_if_noautosys was used).
206 * Do not scramble innards when a query on the output queue is cancelled.
207 * Do not close tcp socket twice.
208 * Mailboxes containing spaces in their names are quoted.
209 * Give ESRCH, not EAGAIN, if _check called with no queries outstanding.
210 * adns_rr_hostaddr naddrs is -1 on temporary failure (as documented).
211 * Reject TXT RRs with no strings.
212 * Correct error messages for qname CNAME foo, foo CNAME bar.
213 * adns_processany actually does something.
214 * Fixed typos in adns.h.
215
216 General improvements:
217 * Promise not to change fds in adns_beforepoll (if now is specified).
218 * Improved textual error string for _s_prohibitedcname.
219 * New comment in adns_processany and return 0 (not r which is 0).
220 * Documentation of resolv.conf directives and options, and of environment
221 variables understood, in adns.h
222 * Regression test scripts set EF_DISABLE_BANNER (for Electric Fence).
223
224 Portability and build improvements:
225 * Give install the '-c' flag (otherwise some delete the original !).
226 * Do not remove top-level Makefile on `make clean'.
227 * Don't complain so much about poll(2) tests if not available.
228 * Do not give -u 0 -g 0 options to install.
229 * Remove trailing , from some enums in adns.h.
230 * Dynamically linked clients now made with -l, so as to avoid rpath.
231 * Do not use $^ in make rules (should help with non-GNU make).
232 * Declare flags parameters as ints not enums because C++ is crap.

236 adns (0.4) unstable; urgency=high
237
238 General important bugfixes:
239 * make _qf_owner work if _qf_search not specified, and test it (oops!)
240 * ads->configerrno now initialised (in setup.c).
241 * timercmp(,,<=) doesn't work - use !timercmp(,,>).
242 * Changed memory semantics of internal queries to fix bugs.
243 * Restarting a TCP-using query (eg due to CNAME) doesn't abort.
244
245 Fixes for handling of broken kinds of reply:
246 * Only accept a reply from the subset of servers we sent the query.
247 * Ignore CNAME(s) in answer after RR(s) (and test).
248
249 Other bugfixes and improvements:
250 * adns_s_systemfail is in table of errors (for eg adns_strerror).
251 * Do not ship config.cache, Makefile, etc.
252 * Improvements to install instructions, TODO, etc.
253 * Regression tests compile on systems without poll(2).
254 * Do not install adnstest_s.
255 * _submit returns ENOSYS, not adns_s_unknownquery; documented, tested.
256 * <adns.h> includes <sys/types.h>, <sys/time.h>, <unistd.h>.

260 adns (0.3) unstable; urgency=low
261
262 Incompatible changes:
263 * Low adns_status values (below adns_s_max_tempfail) renumbered to make
264 room for future locally-induced and locally-detected errors.
265 * Event loop functions for use by select(2) renamed and tidied up.
266
267 Features / improvements:
268 * New adns_errabbrev() for getting status abbreviation strings.
269 * regress/checkall prints summary list of failed tests, if any.
270 * Event loop functions for poll(2), and some raw variants.
271 * adnstest has ability to use poll(2), and user can set initflags.
272 * checkall prints passed list as well as failed list, if any failed.
273 * You can iterate over outstanding queries (but only once at a time).
274
275 Bugfixes:
276 * Non-RFC822 mailbox `domain' formatting now works, and clarified.
277 * Rejection of bad characters in domains (without quoteok) works.
278 * Clean up parents from adns->childw (otherwise would abort/segfault).
279 * In adnstest, allocate enough space for, and terminate, query types.
280 * In adnstest, don't print errno values as adns_status values.
281
282 * Added TODO file.
283 * Made adnstest.c test context pointers.

294 * Include <sys/times.h> in a few more files.
295 * Include <unistd.h> and <sys/time.h> for select.
296 * Look for inet_aton and inet_ntoa (in -lnsl and -lsocket).
297 * LDLIBS removed from dependency lists (some makes don't support this).
298 * An `ambiguous else' warning from some compilers in types.c is removed.
299
300 Other changes:
301 * Added COPYING (copy of the GPL).
302 * Regression test failure output improved.
303 * Missing targets in regress/Makefile.in added.
