4 * Don't make _processany always kill the TCP connection with the message
5 `TCP connection failed: poll/select: exceptional condition detected'.
6 * Call MEM_ROUND in __transfer_interim (avoids assert fail
7 `qu->interim_allocd>=0' on some platforms eg 64 bit).
8 * adnsresfilter doesn't resolve textual prefixes of addresses (eg,
9 10.0.0.1 out of 10.0.0.123) if input happens to block at that point.
10 * Do not spin if TCP connection blocks for writing (and add test case).
11 * Fail queries if TCP dies repeatedly, rather than retrying many times.
12 * Do not abort in a couple of places if TCP unexpectedly broken.
13 * Do not free something twice if query fails and is then cancelled.
15 Portability/compilation fixes:
16 * Move `extern "C" {' to after #include <...>'s.
17 * Pass LDFLAGS from configure on to ld via settings.make.in.
18 * make clean deletes *.so and *.so.* files.
19 * New --disable-dynamic configure option for non-ELF systems.
20 * Use AC_PROG_INSTALL (=> perhaps install-sh), to avoid bad `install'.
23 * Do not print warning if sendto() gives EAGAIN.
24 * adnsresfilter default timeout changed to 1000ms.
25 * m1test script can invoke `hrecord' differently.
26 * regress/output-<case>.report file contains more useful info.
27 * TODO list and other docs updated slightly.
28 * Referrals with RD+RA set, or RCODE=Refused, don't generate warnings,
29 just debug messages. BIND does this kind of thing all the time.
33 adns (0.8) BETA; urgency=medium
36 * Race near adns_beforeselect which could cause infinite timeout fixed
37 (it's now less agressive, and will more often return a zero timeout.)
38 * Fixed infrequent race causing assertion failure in adns__tcp_broken
39 `ads->tcpstate == server_connecting || ads->tcpstate == server_ok'.
40 * Spurious `server failure on unidentifiable query' warning suppressed.
41 * If we get a referral, don't also always complain falsely about RD==0.
42 * adnslogres: cast chars to unsigned char before using ctype.h macros.
43 * In _beforeselect, global failure now means zero timeout, and in
44 tcp_events, really never try to do anything with the TCP connection if
45 act is zero. This might possibly cause an infinite delay (ie, lockup)
46 if things go badly wrong *and* a really unlikely race happens.
47 * Test suite `lines of syscall left' value is correct; !0 is failure.
50 * install-sh (from autoconf 2.12 Debian r13) included.
51 * adnslogres: do not call equivalent of printf("%.*s",0,(char*)0).
53 Documentation improvements:
54 * Security/performance note added, about local nameservers and DNSSEC.
55 * Documented that adns_rr_info _rr_hostaddr ( ) for address list
56 means permanent failure, and ? means temporary failure.
57 * Typo (*now for now in _beforeselect description) in adns.h fixed.
58 * Copyright notices updated.
60 Changes to produce more defensive code:
61 * In adns_wait, assert that the timeout is not infinite.
62 * Make qu->id start out as -2 when initially allocated.

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

81 adns (0.6) BETA; urgency=high
83 Core library bugfixes:
84 * Avoid infinite timeouts, causing lockup, when they should be zero !
85 * TCP handling revamped (avoids undefined behaviour due to reentrancy).
86 * Do not fail assertion if _qf_owner, _qf_search, domain ends in `.'.
87 * Many memory leaks fixed.
90 * adnsresfilter is like `cat' but converts addresses to names without
91 delaying the output. Pipe `netstat -n', `tcpdump -ln', etc. into it.
93 Test and client program bug and portability fixes:
94 * Dynamic library building works properly.
95 * adnshost prints somewhat better messages about some wrong usages.
96 * Include <stdlib.h> and <sys/types.h> in adnshost.h.
97 * adnslogres: parsing and error checking improved (Tony Finch).
98 * Regression tests can cope with zero-length reads.
99 * Regression tests check for memory leaks.
100 * adnstest copes with empty query type list.
101 * adnstest uninitialised memory bug fixed.
104 * Better control of adnshost output and error messages (new -F options).
105 * New adns_if_logpid option (functionality suggested by Tony Finch).
106 * New fanftest test program from Tony Finch (ignored by `make install').
107 * Reads /etc/resolv-adns.conf if it exists.
108 * Declare flags parameters as enums again, not ints.

112 adns (0.5) unstable; urgency=high
115 * adnslogres, ~100x faster replacement for Apache logresolve;
116 Thanks to Tony Finch for the program and the performance figure.
117 * Internal consistency checking with assert if right options set.
118 * adns_wait_poll function like adns_wait but uses poll, not select.
119 * adns_reverse_submit function for easy in-addr queries.
120 * adns_errtypeabbrev funcion for getting eg "permfail" from _s_nodata.
121 * adnshost utility for scripts and the like (rather alpha).
123 Incompatible changes:
124 * RRs with mailboxes never rejected due to strange chars if _raw.
125 * Lack of a mailbox produces `.' not `<>'.
126 * Better usage messages (and no default query domain) for adnstest.
127 * Return EAGAIN from _check instead of EWOULDBLOCK.
128 * adns_rr_info on _r_mx etc. shows status type abbrev and status number.
131 * Do not invoke __autosys indirectly from __procdgram (result: coredump
132 usually in memmove, unless adns_if_noautosys was used).
133 * Do not scramble innards when a query on the output queue is cancelled.
134 * Do not close tcp socket twice.
135 * Mailboxes containing spaces in their names are quoted.
136 * Give ESRCH, not EAGAIN, if _check called with no queries outstanding.
137 * adns_rr_hostaddr naddrs is -1 on temporary failure (as documented).
138 * Reject TXT RRs with no strings.
139 * Correct error messages for qname CNAME foo, foo CNAME bar.
140 * adns_processany actually does something.
141 * Fixed typos in adns.h.
143 General improvements:
144 * Promise not to change fds in adns_beforepoll (if now is specified).
145 * Improved textual error string for _s_prohibitedcname.
146 * New comment in adns_processany and return 0 (not r which is 0).
147 * Documentation of resolv.conf directives and options, and of environment
148 variables understood, in adns.h
149 * Regression test scripts set EF_DISABLE_BANNER (for Electric Fence).
151 Portability and build improvements:
152 * Give install the '-c' flag (otherwise some delete the original !).
153 * Do not remove top-level Makefile on `make clean'.
154 * Don't complain so much about poll(2) tests if not available.
155 * Do not give -u 0 -g 0 options to install.
156 * Remove trailing , from some enums in adns.h.
157 * Dynamically linked clients now made with -l, so as to avoid rpath.
158 * Do not use $^ in make rules (should help with non-GNU make).
159 * Declare flags parameters as ints not enums because C++ is crap.

163 adns (0.4) unstable; urgency=high
165 General important bugfixes:
166 * make _qf_owner work if _qf_search not specified, and test it (oops!)
167 * ads->configerrno now initialised (in setup.c).
168 * timercmp(,,<=) doesn't work - use !timercmp(,,>).
169 * Changed memory semantics of internal queries to fix bugs.
170 * Restarting a TCP-using query (eg due to CNAME) doesn't abort.
172 Fixes for handling of broken kinds of reply:
173 * Only accept a reply from the subset of servers we sent the query.
174 * Ignore CNAME(s) in answer after RR(s) (and test).
176 Other bugfixes and improvements:
177 * adns_s_systemfail is in table of errors (for eg adns_strerror).
178 * Do not ship config.cache, Makefile, etc.
179 * Improvements to install instructions, TODO, etc.
180 * Regression tests compile on systems without poll(2).
181 * Do not install adnstest_s.
182 * _submit returns ENOSYS, not adns_s_unknownquery; documented, tested.
183 * <adns.h> includes <sys/types.h>, <sys/time.h>, <unistd.h>.

187 adns (0.3) unstable; urgency=low
189 Incompatible changes:
190 * Low adns_status values (below adns_s_max_tempfail) renumbered to make
191 room for future locally-induced and locally-detected errors.
192 * Event loop functions for use by select(2) renamed and tidied up.
194 Features / improvements:
195 * New adns_errabbrev() for getting status abbreviation strings.
196 * regress/checkall prints summary list of failed tests, if any.
197 * Event loop functions for poll(2), and some raw variants.
198 * adnstest has ability to use poll(2), and user can set initflags.
199 * checkall prints passed list as well as failed list, if any failed.
200 * You can iterate over outstanding queries (but only once at a time).
203 * Non-RFC822 mailbox `domain' formatting now works, and clarified.
204 * Rejection of bad characters in domains (without quoteok) works.
205 * Clean up parents from adns->childw (otherwise would abort/segfault).
206 * In adnstest, allocate enough space for, and terminate, query types.
207 * In adnstest, don't print errno values as adns_status values.
210 * Made adnstest.c test context pointers.

214 adns (0.2) experimental; urgency=low
216 Portability fixes for compilation on various platforms:
217 * Include <sys/socket.h> and <netinet/in.h> in files with <arpa/inet.h>.
218 * Don't use GCC union assignment feature (.rrs=0 => .rrs.untyped=0).
219 * Explictly cast things to [const] struct sockaddr* in syscall args.
220 * Check whether we need -lsocket.
221 * Include <sys/times.h> in a few more files.
222 * Include <unistd.h> and <sys/time.h> for select.
223 * Look for inet_aton and inet_ntoa (in -lnsl and -lsocket).
224 * LDLIBS removed from dependency lists (some makes don't support this).
225 * An `ambiguous else' warning from some compilers in types.c is removed.
228 * Added COPYING (copy of the GPL).
229 * Regression test failure output improved.
230 * Missing targets in regress/Makefile.in added.
231 * Regression test doesn't rely on value of fcntl flags eg O_NONBLOCK.
