50 /** @file evdns.h
52 * Welcome, gentle reader
54 * Async DNS lookups are really a whole lot harder than they should be,
55 * mostly stemming from the fact that the libc resolver has never been
56 * very good at them. Before you use this library you should see if libc
57 * can do the job for you with the modern async call getaddrinfo_a
58 * (see http://www.imperialviolet.org/page25.html#e498). Otherwise,
59 * please continue.
61 * This code is based on libevent and you must call event_init before
62 * any of the APIs in this file. You must also seed the OpenSSL random
63 * source if you are using OpenSSL for ids (see below).
65 * This library is designed to be included and shipped with your source
66 * code. You statically link with it. You should also test for the
67 * existence of strtok_r and define HAVE_STRTOK_R if you have it.
69 * The DNS protocol requires a good source of id numbers and these
70 * numbers should be unpredictable for spoofing reasons. There are
71 * three methods for generating them here and you must define exactly
72 * one of them. In increasing order of preference:
74 * DNS_USE_GETTIMEOFDAY_FOR_ID:
75 * Using the bottom 16 bits of the usec result from gettimeofday. This
76 * is a pretty poor solution but should work anywhere.
77 * DNS_USE_CPU_CLOCK_FOR_ID:
78 * Using the bottom 16 bits of the nsec result from the CPU's time
79 * counter. This is better, but may not work everywhere. Requires
80 * POSIX realtime support and you'll need to link against -lrt on
81 * glibc systems at least.
82 * DNS_USE_OPENSSL_FOR_ID:
83 * Uses the OpenSSL RAND_bytes call to generate the data. You must
84 * have seeded the pool before making any calls to this library.
86 * The library keeps track of the state of nameservers and will avoid
87 * them when they go down. Otherwise it will round robin between them.
89 * Quick start guide:
90 * #include "evdns.h"
91 * void callback(int result, char type, int count, int ttl,
92 * void *addresses, void *arg);
93 * evdns_resolv_conf_parse(DNS_OPTIONS_ALL, "/etc/resolv.conf");
94 * evdns_resolve("www.hostname.com", 0, callback, NULL);
96 * When the lookup is complete the callback function is called. The
97 * first argument will be one of the DNS_ERR_* defines in evdns.h.
98 * Hopefully it will be DNS_ERR_NONE, in which case type will be
99 * DNS_IPv4_A, count will be the number of IP addresses, ttl is the time
100 * which the data can be cached for (in seconds), addresses will point
101 * to an array of uint32_t's and arg will be whatever you passed to
102 * evdns_resolve.
104 * Searching:
106 * In order for this library to be a good replacement for glibc's resolver it
107 * supports searching. This involves setting a list of default domains, in
108 * which names will be queried for. The number of dots in the query name
109 * determines the order in which this list is used.
111 * Searching appears to be a single lookup from the point of view of the API,
112 * although many DNS queries may be generated from a single call to
113 * evdns_resolve. Searching can also drastically slow down the resolution
114 * of names.
116 * To disable searching:
117 * 1. Never set it up. If you never call evdns_resolv_conf_parse or
118 * evdns_search_add then no searching will occur.
120 * 2. If you do call evdns_resolv_conf_parse then don't pass
121 * DNS_OPTION_SEARCH (or DNS_OPTIONS_ALL, which implies it).
123 * 3. When calling evdns_resolve, pass the DNS_QUERY_NO_SEARCH flag.
125 * The order of searches depends on the number of dots in the name. If the
126 * number is greater than the ndots setting then the names is first tried
127 * globally. Otherwise each search domain is appended in turn.
129 * The ndots setting can either be set from a resolv.conf, or by calling
130 * evdns_search_ndots_set.
132 * For example, with ndots set to 1 (the default) and a search domain list of
133 * ["myhome.net"]:
134 * Query: www
135 * Order: www.myhome.net, www.
137 * Query: www.abc
138 * Order: www.abc., www.abc.myhome.net
140 * Internals:
142 * Requests are kept in two queues. The first is the inflight queue. In
143 * this queue requests have an allocated transaction id and nameserver.
144 * They will soon be transmitted if they haven't already been.
146 * The second is the waiting queue. The size of the inflight ring is
147 * limited and all other requests wait in waiting queue for space. This
148 * bounds the number of concurrent requests so that we don't flood the
149 * nameserver. Several algorithms require a full walk of the inflight
150 * queue and so bounding its size keeps thing going nicely under huge
151 * (many thousands of requests) loads.
153 * If a nameserver loses too many requests it is considered down and we
154 * try not to use it. After a while we send a probe to that nameserver
155 * (a lookup for google.com) and, if it replies, we consider it working
156 * again. If the nameserver fails a probe we wait longer to try again
157 * with the next probe.
