[PATCH 1/5] dyndns: new option dyndns_refresh_interval
This new options adds the possibility of updating the DNS entries
periodically regardless if they have changed or not. This feature
will be useful mainly in AD environments where the Windows clients
periodically update their DNS records.
There is one place (in IPA dyndns code in this patch but also in AD code
later on) that I wanted to discuss specifically. It may happen that the
periodic update would trigger going online in which case the online
callback would fire and another dyndns update would be invoked as an
online callback. To prevent a race between these two updates, there is
an interval, currently hardcoded to 60 seconds that would just make the
next update quit without doing anything. Ideas on how to fix the problem
without a hardcoded timeout are welcome.
I haven't gone through the code yet, but I encountered similar problem
in sudo. There is a boolean in sudo_ctx that says whether a full refresh
is already in progress or not. If it is then the online callback just
returns.
See sdap_sudo_full_refresh_online_cb().
