Library code should definitely not ask for console input unless
it's clearly an input function. Delegating the user interaction
part to the caller means it can now be used by a GUI, or have a
decision algorithm better adapted to a particular caller.
load_txt_records_from_dns attempts to distribute `a = 0, b = -1` where
(b = dns_urls.size() - 1) and IntType is signed integer. This results in
an infinite recursion which leads to SIGSEGV.
This replaces the epee and data_loggers logging systems with
a single one, and also adds filename:line and explicit severity
levels. Categories may be defined, and logging severity set
by category (or set of categories). epee style 0-4 log level
maps to a sensible severity configuration. Log files now also
rotate when reaching 100 MB.
To select which logs to output, use the MONERO_LOGS environment
variable, with a comma separated list of categories (globs are
supported), with their requested severity level after a colon.
If a log matches more than one such setting, the last one in
the configuration string applies. A few examples:
This one is (mostly) silent, only outputting fatal errors:
MONERO_LOGS=*:FATAL
This one is very verbose:
MONERO_LOGS=*:TRACE
This one is totally silent (logwise):
MONERO_LOGS=""
This one outputs all errors and warnings, except for the
"verify" category, which prints just fatal errors (the verify
category is used for logs about incoming transactions and
blocks, and it is expected that some/many will fail to verify,
hence we don't want the spam):
MONERO_LOGS=*:WARNING,verify:FATAL
Log levels are, in decreasing order of priority:
FATAL, ERROR, WARNING, INFO, DEBUG, TRACE
Subcategories may be added using prefixes and globs. This
example will output net.p2p logs at the TRACE level, but all
other net* logs only at INFO:
MONERO_LOGS=*:ERROR,net*:INFO,net.p2p:TRACE
Logs which are intended for the user (which Monero was using
a lot through epee, but really isn't a nice way to go things)
should use the "global" category. There are a few helper macros
for using this category, eg: MGINFO("this shows up by default")
or MGINFO_RED("this is red"), to try to keep a similar look
and feel for now.
Existing epee log macros still exist, and map to the new log
levels, but since they're used as a "user facing" UI element
as much as a logging system, they often don't map well to log
severities (ie, a log level 0 log may be an error, or may be
something we want the user to see, such as an important info).
In those cases, I tried to use the new macros. In other cases,
I left the existing macros in. When modifying logs, it is
probably best to switch to the new macros with explicit levels.
The --log-level options and set_log commands now also accept
category settings, in addition to the epee style log levels.
Sample use:
DNS_PUBLIC=tcp torsocks bin/bitmonerod --p2p-bind-ip 127.0.0.1
Test:
Run above with --log-level 4 with and without DNS_PUBLIC environment
variable set.
DNS debugging info should show successful DNS lookups only when
DNS_PUBLIC is set to "tcp":
DNS lookup for seeds.moneroseeds.se: 17 results
DNS lookup for seeds.moneroseeds.ae.org: 17 results
DNS lookup for seeds.moneroseeds.ch: 12 results
DNS lookup for seeds.moneroseeds.li: 12 results
This ensures one can't instanciate a DNSResolver object by
mistake, but uses the singleton. A separate create static
function is added for cases where a new object is explicitely
needed.
Based on tewinget's update.
Make OpenAlias address format independent of existing DNS functions.
Add tests.
Test:
make debug-test
cd build/debug/tests/unit_tests
# test that regular DNS functions work, including IPv4 lookups.
# also test function that converts OpenAlias address format
make && ./unit_tests --gtest_filter=DNSResolver*
# test that OpenAlias addresses like donate@getmonero.org work from
# wallet tools
make && ./unit_tests --gtest_filter=AddressFromURL.Success
Due to a bug in unbound, we were passing a string containing a null
character to ub_ctx_resolvconf and ub_ctx_hosts rather than a NULL
pointer. On *nix this wasn't causing headache, but on Windows this was
causing unbound to not correctly load DNS settings from the OS.
Note on the bug: in a Windows-specific code branch in the function
ub_ctx_hosts(), if the hosts file specified was a NULL pointer, a call
to getenv() was stored in a local char* and later freed. This is
incorrect, as we do not own that data, and caused the program to crash.
DNSSEC is now implemented with the hardcoded key from unbound.
This will need to be not hardcoded in the future, but is okay for now.
Unit tests updated for DNSSEC (as well as for the fact that, contrary to
previous assumption, example.com does not have a static IP address).
Note: DNSResolver does not yet *use* DNSSEC, but rather this commit is
preparation for including DNSSEC validation. The function in
src/wallet/wallet2.cpp that uses DNSResolver still needs its parameters
updated accordingly.
ldns dependency was only still around for constants defined in ldns/rr.h,
but those constants are RFC specified DNS constants, and to reduce deps
have been replicated in dns_utils.h instead of including ldns/rr.h.
