Introduce a _very_ simple DNS server using our internal DNS-related
code, that responds to queries with specifically crafted packets, to
cover scenarios that are difficult to reproduce with well-behaving DNS
servers.
Also, hide the test DNS server behind Knot using the dnsproxy module, so
we don't have to switch DNS servers during tests.
serve stale feature to keep the DNS resource records beyond TTL to return them as stale records in case of upstream server is not reachable or returns negative response.
SD_RESOLVED_NO_STALE flag has been added to disable serving stale records via dbus.
added serve stale test cases to TEST-75-RESOLVED
Fixes: #21815
(s) is just ugly with a vibe of DOS. In most cases just using the normal plural
form is more natural and gramatically correct.
There are some log_debug() statements left, and texts in foreign licenses or
headers. Those are not touched on purpose.
* The new varlink interface exposes a method to subscribe to DNS
resolutions on the system. The socket permissions are open for owner and
group only.
* Notifications are sent to subscriber(s), if any, after successful
resolution of A and AAAA records.
This feature could be used by applications for auditing/logging services
downstream of the resolver. It could also be used to asynchronously
update the firewall. For example, a system that has a tightly configured
firewall could open up connections selectively to known good hosts based
on a known allow-list of hostnames. Of course, updating the firewall
asynchronously will require other design considerations (such as
queueing packets in the user space while a verdict is made).
