    cc59bce675e62e2b9657b42614ce8be3312cae82
  New features:
  - New `root-nx-trust` flag makes PowerDNS generalize NXDOMAIN
    responses from the root-servers
    01402d56846a3a61811ebd4e6bc97e53f908e568
  - `getregisteredname()` for Lua, which turns 'www.bbc.co.uk' into

    top-largeanswer-remotes, top-servfail-queries
  Speedups:
  - Remove unneeded malloc traffic

    a903b39cfe7364c56324038264d3db50b8cece87
  - Our nameserver-loop detection carried around a lot of baggage
    for complex domain names, plus did not differentiate IPv4 and
      IPv6 well enough 891fbf888ccac074e3edc38864641ca774f2f03c
  - Prioritize new queries over nameserver responses, improving
    latency under query bursts

  - Remove escaping in case there was nothing to escape
    83b746fd1d94c8742d8bd87a44beb44c154230c7
  - Our logging infrastructure had a lot of locking
    d1449e4d073595e1e1581804f121fc90e37158bf
  - Reduce logging level of certain common messages, which locked
    up synchronously logging systems
    854d44e31c76aa650520e6d462dd3a02b5936f7a
  - Add limit on total wall-clock time spent on a query
    9de3e0340fa066d4c59449e1643a1de8c343f8f2
  - Packet cache is now case-insensitive, which increases hitrate
    90974597aadaf1096e3fd0dc450be7422ea591a5
  Security relevant:
  - Check for PIE, RELRO and stack protector during configure
    8d0354b189c12e1e14f5309d3b49935c17f9eeb0 (Aki Tuomi)
  - Testing for support of PIE etc was improved in
    b2053c28ccb9609e2ce7bcb6beda83f98a062aa3 and beyond, fixes
    #2125 (Ruben Kerkhof)
  - Max query-per-query limit (max-qperq) is now configurable
    173d790ead08f67733010ca4c6fc404a040fe699
  Bugs fixed:
  - IPv6 outgoing queries had a disproportionate effect on our
    query load. Fixed in 76f190f2a0877cd79ede2994124c1a58dc69ae49
    and beyond.
  - rec_control gave incorrect output on a timeout
    12997e9d800734da51b808767e1e2477244c30eb
  - When using the webserver AND having an error in the Lua script,
    recursor could crash during startup
    62f0ae62984adadab687c23fe1b287c1f219b2cb
  - Hugely long version strings would trip up security polling
    18b7333828a1275ae5f5574a9c8330290d8557ff (Kees Monshouwer)
  - The 'remotes' ringbuffer was sized incorrectly
    f8f243b01215d6adcb59389f09ef494f1309041f
  - Cache sizes had an off-by-one scaling problem, with the wrong
    number of entries allocated per thread
    f8f243b01215d6adcb59389f09ef494f1309041f
  - Our automatic file descriptor limit raising was attempted
    *after* setuid, which made it a lot less effective. Found and
    fixed by Aki Tuomi a6414fdce9b0ec32c340d1f2eea2254f3fedc1c1
  - Timestamps used for dropping packets were occasionaly wrong
    183eb8774e4bc2569f06d5894fec65740f4b70b6 and
    4c4765c104bacc146533217bcc843efb244a8086 (RC2) with thanks to
    Winfried for debugging.
  - In RC1, our new DoS protection measures would crash the
    Recursor if too many root servers were unreachable.
    6a6fb05ad81c519b4002ed1db00f3ed9b7bce6b4. Debugging and testing
    by Fusl.

- update to upstream release 3.6.2 (boo# 906583) CVE-2014-8601

This is a bugfix update to 3.6.1.

A list of changes since 3.6.1 follows.

* gab14b4f: expedite servfail generation for ezdns-like
       failures (fully abort query resolving if we hit more than
       50 outqueries)

* g42025be: PowerDNS now polls the security status of a
       release at startup and periodically. More detail on this
       feature, and how to turn it off, can be found in Section 2,
       "Security polling".

* g5027429: We did not transmit the right 'local' socket
       address to Lua for TCP/IP queries in the recursor. In
       addition, we would attempt to lookup a filedescriptor that
       wasn't there in an unlocked map which could conceivably
       lead to crashes. Closes t1828, thanks Winfried for
       reporting

* g752756c: Sync embedded yahttp copy. API: Replace HTTP
       Basic auth with static key in custom header

* g6fdd40d: add missing #include <pthread.h> to
       rec-channel.hh (this fixes building on OS X).

Fri Mar 12 12:01:31 UTC 2010 - mrueckert@suse.de

- update to version 3.2
  The 3.2 release is the first major release of the PowerDNS
  Recursor in a long time. Partly this is because 3.1.7.*
  functioned very well, and delivered satisfying performance,
  partly this is because in order to really move forward, some
  heavy lifting had to be done.
  This version of the PowerDNS Recursor contains a rather novel
  form of lock-free multithreading, a situation that comes close to
  the old '--fork' trick, but allows the Recursor to fully utilize
  multiple CPUs, while delivering unified statistics and
  operational control.
  In effect, this delivers the best of both worlds: near linear
  scaling, with almost no administrative overhead.

  CVE-2009-4009

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Wed Nov 11 17:34:48 CET 2009 - mrueckert@suse.de

- update to version 3.1.7.1
  This release consists entirely of fixes for tiny bugs that have
  been reported over the past year. In addition, compatibility has
  been restored with the latest versions of the gcc compiler and
  the 'boost' libraries.
  No features have been added, but some debugging code that very
  slightly impacted performance (and polluted the console when
  operating in the foreground) has been removed. 
  - Improved error messages when parsing zones for authoritative
    serving (commit 1235).
  - Better resilience against whitespace in configuration
    (changesets 1237, 1240, 1242)
  - Slight performance increase (commit 1378)
  - Fix rare case where timeouts were not being reported to the
    right query-thread (commit 1260)
  - Fix compilation against newer versions of the Boost C++
    libraries (commit 1381)
  - Close very rare issue with TCP/IP close reporting ECONNRESET on
    FreeBSD. Reported by Andrei Poelov in ticket 192.
  - Silence debugging output (commit 1286).
  - Fix compilation against newer versions of gcc (commit 1384)
  - No longer set export-etc-hosts to 'on' on reload-zones.
    Discovered by Paul Cairney, closes ticket 225.
  - Sane default for the maximum cache size in the Recursor,
    suggested by Roel van der Made (commit 1354).
  - No longer exit because of the changed behaviour of the Solaris
    'completion ports' in more recent versions of Solaris. Fix in
    commit 1372, reported by Jan Gyselinck
- update to version 3.1.7
  This version contains powerful scripting abilities, allowing
  operators to modify DNS responses in many interesting ways. Among
  other things, these abilities can be used to filter out malware
  domains, to perform load balancing, to comply with legal and
  other requirements and finally, to implement 'NXDOMAIN'
  redirection.
  It is hoped that the addition of Lua scripting will enable
  responsible DNS modification for those that need it.
  For more details about the Lua scripting, which can be modified,
  loaded and unloaded at runtime, see Section 12.6. Many thanks are
  due to the #lua irc channel, for excellent near-realtime Lua
  support. In addition, a number of PowerDNS users have been
  enthousiastically testing prereleases of the scripting support,
  and have found and solved many issues. 
  - In 3.1.5 and 3.1.6, an authoritative server could continue to
    renew its authority, even though a domain had been delegated to
    other servers in the meantime.
  - In the rare cases where this happened, and the old servers were
    not shut down, the observed effect is that users were fed
    outdated data.
  - Bug spotted and analysed by Darren Gamble, fix in commit 1182
    and commit 1183.
  - Thanks to long time PowerDNS contributor Stefan Arentz, for the
    first time, Mac OS X 10.5 users can compile and run the
    PowerDNS Recursor! Patch in commit 1185.
  - Sten Spans spotted that for outgoing TCP/IP queries, the
    query-local-address setting was not honored. Fixed in commit
    1190.
  - rec_control wipe-cache now also wipes domains from the negative
    cache, hurrying up the expiry of negatively cached records.
    Suggested by Simon Kirby, implemented in commit 1204.
  - When a forwarder server is configured for a domain, using the
    forward-zones setting, this server IP address was filtered
    using the dont-query setting, which is generally not what is
    desired: the server to which queries are forwarded will often
    live in private IP space, and the operator should be trusted to
    know what he is doing. Reported and argued by Simon Kirby, fix
    in commit 1211.
  - Marcus Rueckert of OpenSUSE reported that very recent gcc
    versions emitted a (correct) warning on an overly complicated
    line in syncres.cc, fixed in commit 1189.
  - Stefan Schmidt discovered that the netmask matching code, used
    by the new Lua scripts, but also by all other parts of
    PowerDNS, had problems with explicit '/32' matches. Fixed in
    commit 1205.
- added pdns-recursor-3.1.7.1_lua.patch
