The choice what errors to ignore is left to the caller, and the caller is
changed to ignore all errors.
On error, previously read data is kept. So if e.g. an oom error happens, we
will continue to return slightly stale data instead of pretending we have no
entries for the given address. I think that's better, for example when
/etc/hosts contains some important overrides that external DNS should not be
queried for.
We'd store every 0.0.0.0 and ::0 entry as a structure without any addresses
allocated. This is a somewhat common use case, let's optimize it a bit.
This gives some memory savings and a bit faster response time too:
'time build/test-resolved-etc-hosts hosts' goes from 7.7s to 5.6s, and
memory use as reported by valgrind for ~10000 hosts is reduced
==18097== total heap usage: 29,902 allocs, 29,902 frees, 2,136,437 bytes allocated
==18240== total heap usage: 19,955 allocs, 19,955 frees, 1,556,021 bytes allocated
Also rename 'suppress' to 'found' (with reverse meaning). I think this makes
the intent clearer.
This hides the details of juggling the two hashmaps from the callers a bit.
It also makes memory management a bit easier, because those two hashmaps share
some strings, so we can only free them together.
etc_hosts_parse() is made responsible to free the half-filled data structures
on error, which makes the caller a bit simpler.
No functional change. A refactoring to prepare for later changes.
These lines are generally out-of-date, incomplete and unnecessary. With
SPDX and git repository much more accurate and fine grained information
about licensing and authorship is available, hence let's drop the
per-file copyright notice. Of course, removing copyright lines of others
is problematic, hence this commit only removes my own lines and leaves
all others untouched. It might be nicer if sooner or later those could
go away too, making git the only and accurate source of authorship
information.
This part of the copyright blurb stems from the GPL use recommendations:
https://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-howto.en.html
The concept appears to originate in times where version control was per
file, instead of per tree, and was a way to glue the files together.
Ultimately, we nowadays don't live in that world anymore, and this
information is entirely useless anyway, as people are very welcome to
copy these files into any projects they like, and they shouldn't have to
change bits that are part of our copyright header for that.
hence, let's just get rid of this old cruft, and shorten our codebase a
bit.
Files which are installed as-is (any .service and other unit files, .conf
files, .policy files, etc), are left as is. My assumption is that SPDX
identifiers are not yet that well known, so it's better to retain the
extended header to avoid any doubt.
I also kept any copyright lines. We can probably remove them, but it'd nice to
obtain explicit acks from all involved authors before doing that.
Fix wrong condition test in manager_etc_hosts_lookup(), which caused it to
return an IPv4 answer when an IPv6 question was asked, and vice versa.
Also only return success if we actually found any A or AAAA record.
In systemd-resolved.service(8), point out that /etc/hosts mappings only
affect address-type lookups, not other types.
The test case currently disables DNSSEC in resolved, as there is a bug
where "-t MX" fails due to "DNSSEC validation failed" even after
"downgrading to non-DNSSEC mode". This should be dropped once that bug
gets fixed.
Fixes#4801
Throughout the tree there's spurious use of spaces separating ++ and --
operators from their respective operands. Make ++ and -- operator
consistent with the majority of existing uses; discard the spaces.
