1 adns (0.9) unstable; urgency=high
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.
14 Portability/compilation fixes:
15 * Move `extern "C" {' to after #include <...>'s.
16 * Pass LDFLAGS from configure on to ld via settings.make.in.
17 * make clean deletes *.so and *.so.* files.
20 * Do not print warning if sendto() gives EAGAIN.
21 * adnsresfilter default timeout changed to 1000ms.
22 * m1test script can invoke `hrecord' differently.
23 * regress/output-<case>.report file contains more useful info.
24 * TODO list updated somewhat.
28 adns (0.8) BETA; urgency=medium
31 * Race near adns_beforeselect which could cause infinite timeout fixed
32 (it's now less agressive, and will more often return a zero timeout.)
33 * Fixed infrequent race causing assertion failure in adns__tcp_broken
34 `ads->tcpstate == server_connecting || ads->tcpstate == server_ok'.
35 * Spurious `server failure on unidentifiable query' warning suppressed.
36 * If we get a referral, don't also always complain falsely about RD==0.
37 * adnslogres: cast chars to unsigned char before using ctype.h macros.
38 * In _beforeselect, global failure now means zero timeout, and in
39 tcp_events, really never try to do anything with the TCP connection if
40 act is zero. This might possibly cause an infinite delay (ie, lockup)
41 if things go badly wrong *and* a really unlikely race happens.
42 * Test suite `lines of syscall left' value is correct; !0 is failure.
45 * install-sh (from autoconf 2.12 Debian r13) included.
46 * adnslogres: do not call equivalent of printf("%.*s",0,(char*)0).
48 Documentation improvements:
49 * Security/performance note added, about local nameservers and DNSSEC.
50 * Documented that adns_rr_info _rr_hostaddr ( ) for address list
51 means permanent failure, and ? means temporary failure.
52 * Typo (*now for now in _beforeselect description) in adns.h fixed.
53 * Copyright notices updated.
55 Changes to produce more defensive code:
56 * In adns_wait, assert that the timeout is not infinite.
57 * Make qu->id start out as -2 when initially allocated.

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

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

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

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

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

209 adns (0.2) experimental; urgency=low
211 Portability fixes for compilation on various platforms:
212 * Include <sys/socket.h> and <netinet/in.h> in files with <arpa/inet.h>.
213 * Don't use GCC union assignment feature (.rrs=0 => .rrs.untyped=0).

220 * An `ambiguous else' warning from some compilers in types.c is removed.
223 * Added COPYING (copy of the GPL).
224 * Regression test failure output improved.
225 * Missing targets in regress/Makefile.in added.
226 * Regression test doesn't rely on value of fcntl flags eg O_NONBLOCK.
