Changes since 9.5.0.
--- 9.5.1rc1 released ---
2498. [bug] Removed a bogus function argument used with
ISC_SOCKET_USE_POLLWATCH: it could cause compiler
warning or crash named with the debug 1 level
of logging. [RT #18917]
2496. [bug] Add sanity length checks to NSID option. [RT #18813]
2495. [bug] Tighten RRSIG checks. [RT #18795]
2494. [bug] isc/radix.h, dns/sdlz.h and dns/dlz.h were not being
installed. [RT #18826]
2493. [bug] The linux capabilites code was not correctly cleaning
up after itself. [RT #18767]
2490. [port] aix: work around a kernel bug where IPV6_RECVPKTINFO
is cleared when IPV6_V6ONLY is set. [RT #18785]
2489. [port] solaris: Workaround Solaris's kernel bug about
/dev/poll:
http://bugs.opensolaris.org/view_bug.do?bug_id=6724237
Define ISC_SOCKET_USE_POLLWATCH at build time to enable
this workaround. [RT #18870]
2487. [bug] Give TCP connections longer to complete. [RT #18675]
2485. [bug] Change update's the handling of obscured RRSIG
records. Not all orphand DS records were being
removed. [RT #18828]
2482. [port] libxml2: support versions 2.7.* in addition
to 2.6.*. [RT #18806]
2479. [bug] xfrout:covers was not properly initalized. [RT #18801]
2478. [bug] 'addresses' could be used uninitalized in
configure_forward(). [RT #18800]
2476. [doc] ARM: improve documentation for max-journal-size and
ixfr-from-differences. [RT #15909] [RT #18541]
--- 9.5.1b3 released ---
2475. [bug] LRU cache cleanup under overmem condition could purge
particular entries more aggressively. [RT #17628]
2474. [bug] ACL structures could be allocated with insufficient
space, causing an array overrun. [RT #18765]
2473. [port] linux: raise the limit on open files to the possible
maximum value before spawning threads; 'files'
specified in named.conf doesn't seem to work with
threads as expected. [RT #18784]
2472. [port] linux: check the number of available cpu's before
calling chroot as it depends on "/proc". [RT #16923]
2471. [bug] named-checkzone was not reporting missing mandatory
glue when sibling checks were disabled. [RT #18768]
2470. [bug] Elements of the isc_radix_node_t could be incorrectly
overwritten. [RT# 18719]
2469. [port] solaris: Work around Solaris's select() limitations.
[RT #18769]
2468. [bug] Resolver could try unreachable servers multiple times.
[RT #18739]
2467. [bug] Failure of fcntl(F_DUPFD) wasn't logged. [RT #18740]
2466. [doc] ARM: explain max-cache-ttl 0 SERVFAIL issue.
[RT #18302]
2465. [bug] Adb's handling of lame addresses was different
for IPv4 and IPv6. [RT #18738]
2464. [port] linux: check that a capability is present before
trying to set it. [RT #18135]
2463. [port] linux: POSIX doesn't include the IPv6 Advanced Socket
API and glibc hides parts of the IPv6 Advanced Socket
API as a result. This is stupid as it breaks how the
two halves (Basic and Advanced) of the IPv6 Socket API
were designed to be used but we have to live with it.
Define _GNU_SOURCE to pull in the IPv6 Advanced Socket
API. [RT #18388]
2462. [doc] Document -m (enable memory usage debugging)
option for dig. [RT #18757]
2461. [port] sunos: Change #2363 was not complete. [RT #17513]
2458. [doc] ARM: update and correction for max-cache-size.
[RT #18294]
2457. [tuning] max-cache-size is reverted to 0, the previous
default. It should be safe because expired cache
entries are also purged. [RT #18684]
2456. [bug] In ACLs, ::/0 and 0.0.0.0/0 would both match any
address, regardless of family. They now correctly
distinguish IPv4 from IPv6. [RT #18559]
2455. [bug] Stop metadata being transferred via axfr/ixfr.
[RT #18639]
2453. [bug] Remove NULL pointer dereference in dns_journal_print().

2449. [bug] libbind: Out of bounds reference in dns_ho.c:addrsort.
[RT #18044]
2445. [doc] ARM out-of-date on empty reverse zones (list includes
RFC1918 address, but these are not yet compiled in).
[RT #18578]
2444. [port] Linux, FreeBSD, AIX: Turn off path mtu discovery
(clear DF) for UDP responses and requests.
2387. [bug] Silence compiler warnings in lib/isc/radix.c.
[RT #18147] [RT #18258]
2369. [bug] libbind: Array bounds overrun on read in bitncmp().
[RT #18054]
--- 9.5.1b2 released ---
2443. [bug] win32: UDP connect() would not generate an event,
and so connected UDP sockets would never clean up.
Fix this by doing an immediate WSAConnect() rather
than an io completion port type for UDP.
2442. [bug] A lock could be destroyed twice. [RT# 18626]
2441. [bug] isc_radix_insert() could copy radix tree nodes
incompletely. [RT #18573]
2440. [bug] named-checkconf used an incorrect test to determine
if an ACL was set to none.
2439. [bug] Potential NULL dereference in dns_acl_isanyornone().
[RT #18559]
2438. [bug] Timeouts could be logged incorrectly under win32.
[RT #18617]
2437. [bug] Sockets could be closed too early, leading to
inconsistent states in the socket module. [RT #18298]
2436. [security] win32: UDP client handler can be shutdown. [RT #18576]
2435. [bug] Fixed an ACL memory leak affecting win32.
2434. [bug] Fixed a minor error-reporting bug in
lib/isc/win32/socket.c.
2433. [tuning] Set initial timeout to 800ms.
2432. [bug] More Windows socket handling improvements. Stop
using I/O events and use IO Completion Ports
throughout. Rewrite the receive path logic to make
it easier to support multiple simultaneous
requesters in the future. Add stricter consistency
checking as a compile-time option (define
ISC_SOCKET_CONSISTENCY_CHECKS; defaults to off).
2431. [bug] Acl processing could leak memory. [RT #18323]
2430. [bug] win32: isc_interval_set() could round down to
zero if the input was less than NS_INTERVAL
nanoseconds. Round up instead. [RT #18549]
2429. [doc] nsupdate should be in section 1 of the man pages.
[RT #18283]
2428. [bug] dns_iptable_merge() mishandled merges of negative
tables. [RT #18409]
2426. [bug] libbind: inet_net_pton() can sometimes return the
wrong value if excessively large net masks are
supplied. [RT #18512]
2425. [bug] named didn't detect unavailable query source addresses
at load time. [RT #18536]
2424. [port] configure now probes for a working epoll
implementation. Allow the use of kqueue,
epoll and /dev/poll to be selected at compile
time. [RT #18277]
2422. [bug] Handle the special return value of a empty node as
if it was a NXRRSET in the validator. [RT #18447]
2421. [func] Add new command line option '-S' for named to specify
the max number of sockets. [RT #18493]
Use caution: this option may not work for some
operating systems without rebuilding named.
2420. [bug] Windows socket handling cleanup. Let the io
completion event send out cancelled read/write
done events, which keeps us from writing to memory
we no longer have ownership of. Add debugging
socket_log() function. Rework TCP socket handling
to not leak sockets.
2419. [cleanup] Document that isc_socket_create() and isc_socket_open()
should not be used for isc_sockettype_fdwatch sockets.
[RT #18521]
2418. [bug] AXFR request on a DLZ could trigger a REQUIRE failure
[RT #18430]
2417. [bug] Connecting UDP sockets for outgoing queries could
unexpectedly fail with an 'address already in use'
error. [RT #18411]
2416. [func] Log file descriptors that cause exceeding the
internal maximum. [RT #18460]
2415. [bug] 'rndc dumpdb' could trigger various assertion failures
in rbtdb.c. [RT #18455]
2414. [bug] A masterdump context held the database lock too long,
causing various troubles such as dead lock and
recursive lock acquisition. [RT #18311, #18456]
2413. [bug] Fixed an unreachable code path in socket.c. [RT #18442]
2412. [bug] win32: address a resourse leak. [RT #18374]
2411. [bug] Allow using a larger number of sockets than FD_SETSIZE
for select(). To enable this, set ISC_SOCKET_MAXSOCKETS
at compilation time. [RT #18433]
2410. [bug] Correctly delete m_versionInfo. [RT #18432]
2409. [bug] Only log that we disabled EDNS processing if we were
subsequently successful. [RT #18029]
2408. [bug] A duplicate TCP dispatch event could be sent, which
could then trigger an assertion failure in
resquery_response(). [RT #18275]
2407. [port] hpux: test for sys/dyntune.h. [RT #18421]
2405. [cleanup] The default value for dnssec-validation was changed to
"yes" in 9.5.0-P1 and all subsequent releases; this
was inadvertently omitted from CHANGES at the time.
2404. [port] hpux: files unlimited support.
2403. [bug] TSIG context leak. [RT #18341]
2402. [port] Support Solaris 2.11 and over. [RT #18362]
2401. [bug] Expect to get E[MN]FILE errno internal_accept()
(from accept() or fcntl() system calls). [RT #18358]
2400. [bug] Log if kqueue()/epoll_create()/open(/dev/poll) fails.
[RT #18297]
2398. [bug] Improve file descriptor management. New,
temporary, named.conf option reserved-sockets,
default 512. [RT #18344]
2397. [bug] gssapi_functions bad declaration. [RT #18355]
2396. [bug] Don't set SO_REUSEADDR for randomized ports.
[RT #18336]
2395. [port] Avoid warning and no effect from "files unlimited"
on Linux when running as root. [RT #18335]
2394. [bug] Default configuration options set the limit for
open files to 'unlimited' as described in the
documentation. [RT #18331]
2393. [bug] nested acls containing keys could trigger an
assertion in acl.c. [RT #18166]
2392. [bug] remove 'grep -q' from acl test script, some platforms
don't support it. [RT #18253]
2391. [port] hpux: cover additional recvmsg() error codes.
[RT #18301]
2390. [bug] dispatch.c could make a false warning on 'odd socket'.
[RT #18301].
2389. [bug] Move the "working directory writable" check to after
the ns_os_changeuser() call. [RT #18326]
2388. [bug] Avoid using tables for layout purposes in
statistics XSL [RT #18159].
2386. [func] Add warning about too small 'open files' limit.
[RT #18269]
--- 9.5.1b1 released ---
2385. [bug] A condition variable in socket.c could leak in
rare error handling [RT #17968].
2384. [security] Additional support for query port randomization (change
#2375) including performance improvement and port range
specification. [RT #17949, #18098]
2383. [bug] named could double queries when they resulted in
SERVFAIL due to overkilling EDNS0 failure detection.
[RT #18182]
2382. [doc] Add descriptions of DHCID, IPSECKEY, SPF and SSHFP
to ARM.
2381. [port] dlz/mysql: support multiple install layouts for
mysql. <prefix>/include/{,mysql/}mysql.h and
<prefix>/lib/{,mysql/}. [RT #18152]
2380. [bug] dns_view_find() was not returning NXDOMAIN/NXRRSET
proofs which, in turn, caused validation failures
for insecure zones immediately below a secure zone
the server was authoritative for. [RT #18112]
2379. [contrib] queryperf/gen-data-queryperf.py: removed redundant
TLDs and supported RRs with TTLs [RT #17972]
2378. [bug] gssapi_functions{} had a redundant member in BIND 9.5.
[RT #18169]
2377. [bug] Address race condition in dnssec-signzone. [RT #18142]
2376. [bug] Change #2144 was not complete.
2375. [security] Fully randomize UDP query ports to improve
forgery resilience. [RT #17949]
2373. [bug] Default values of zone ACLs were re-parsed each time a
new zone was configured, causing an overconsumption
of memory. [RT #18092]
