Subject: Re: [plug] dns resolving slow
hi guys,
just installed the latest bind 9.4 and seems running well. looked at the
logs
and saw these, cant find concrete info on google. help from the gurus.
Feb 26 21:36:40 ns1 kernel: process `named' is using obsolete setsockopt
SO_BSDCOMPAT
Feb 26 21:38:09 ns1 kernel: process `dig' is using obsolete setsockopt
SO_BSDCOMPAT
SO_BSDCOMPAT is enabling bsd bug-to-bug compatability socket option... this
is used by the udp protocol module in linux 2.0 and 2.2... in later kernel
versions... support for this socket option has been phased out... linux 2.4
silently ignores it while linux 2.6 generates a kernel warning (by calling
printk() function call) if a program uses this option as what you have seen
above...
bind was developed under BSD environment and bind developers still uses this
because they have customers that have kernels that require SO_BSDCOMPAT to
operate... therefore they cannot remove the setsockopt(SO_BSDCOMPAT) call...
for linux... you have to undefine the #define SO_BSDCOMPAT at
lib/isc/unix/socket.c by putting #undef SO_BSDCOMPAT after the #include
lines or whatever method as long as SO_BSDCOMPAT is undefine...
fooler.
