knot-resolver 4.2.2 - náhle přestane vracet odpovědi (status: SERVFAIL)

by Zdenek Janis

Dobrý den, dnes po mnoha dnech (měsíců) bezproblémového provozu knot-resolveru 4.2.2 najednou přestal vracet odpovědi na dotazy. Využívá jej několik tisíc klientů, tak nebyl moc čas na experimerny a reboot celého stroje pomohl... Ale jen asi na 15min. Pak opět přestal vracet záznamy, jako by je neměl. Opět reboot a to vydrželo fungovat asi 1.5h a opt přestal komunikovat. To už začalo být vážné, takže jsme spoustu DNS dotazů na routrech přesměrovali na 8.8.8.8. Mezi tím opět restart a nyní to již téměř 2h funguje bez problémů. Vím, že nyní již existuje knot-resolver verze 5.0.1, ale zajímá mě, zda uvedený problém je známy, jen jsem se sním do dnes nesetkal a v další verzi opraven, nebo se jedná o neevidovanou anomálii. V logách jsem totiž našel jen toto: Apr 27 18:17:56 knot-resolver systemd[1]: kresd(a)4.service: Watchdog timeout (limit 10s)! Apr 27 18:17:56 knot-resolver systemd[1]: kresd(a)4.service: Killing process 382 (kresd) with signal SIGABRT. Apr 27 18:17:56 knot-resolver systemd[1]: kresd(a)4.service: Main process exited, code=killed, status=6/ABRT Apr 27 18:17:56 knot-resolver systemd[1]: kresd(a)4.service: Failed with result 'watchdog'. Apr 27 18:17:56 knot-resolver systemd[1]: kresd(a)4.service: Service RestartSec=100ms expired, scheduling restart. Apr 27 18:17:56 knot-resolver systemd[1]: kresd(a)4.service: Scheduled restart job, restart counter is at 1. Předpokládám, že tato nemilá reakce knot-resolveru byla způsobena nějakým "spatným" dotazem, ať náhodným nebo záměrným. Nyní jsme opět zrušili přesměrovaní na 8.8.8.8 a téměř okamžitě přestal odpovídat: dig @192.168.100.100 -t AAAA www.seZNAm.cz ; <<>> DiG 9.11.5-P4-5.1-Debian <<>> @192.168.100.100 -t AAAA www.seZNAm.cz ; (1 server found) ;; global options: +cmd ;; Got answer: ;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, status: SERVFAIL, id: 64547 ;; flags: qr rd ra; QUERY: 1, ANSWER: 0, AUTHORITY: 0, ADDITIONAL: 1 ;; OPT PSEUDOSECTION: ; EDNS: version: 0, flags:; udp: 4096 ;; QUESTION SECTION: ;www.seZNAm.cz.

Hello, Would it be possible to maintain the Fedora 29 knot-resolver repo for a few more months? It recently dropped off the mirrors and it's unclear if some F29 machines will be updated for a few more months. Thanks! R

Knot Resolver 5.0.0

by Tomas Krizek

Dear Knot Resolver users, Knot Resolver 5.0.0 has been released! This version has a few backward incompatible changes. Most notably, the network interface configuration has been moved back to the configuration file and configuration via systemd sockets is no longer supported. Unfortunately, this change requires a manual modification of your configuration file if you've previously configured your network interfaces via systemd sockets. Please follow the instructions printed out during package upgrade and check out our upgrading guide: https://knot-resolver.readthedocs.io/en/stable/upgrading.html We apologize for the inconvenience. Incompatible changes -------------------- - see upgrading guide: https://knot-resolver.readthedocs.io/en/stable/upgrading.html - systemd sockets are no longer supported (#485) - net.listen() throws an error if it fails to bind; use freebind option if needed - control socket location has changed (!922) - -f/--forks is deprecated (#529, !919) Improvements ------------ - logging: control-socket commands don't log unless --verbose (#528) - use SO_REUSEPORT_LB if available (FreeBSD 12.0+) - lua: remove dependency on lua-socket and lua-sec, used lua-http and cqueues (#512, #521, !894) - lua: remove dependency on lua-filesystem (#520, !912) - net.listen(): allow binding to non-local address with freebind option (!898) - cache: pre-allocate the file to avoid SIGBUS later (not macOS; !917, #525) - lua: be stricter around nonsense returned from modules (!901) - user documentation was reorganized and extended (!900, !867) - multiple config files can be used with --config/-c option (!909) - lua: stop trying to tweak lua's GC (!201) - systemd: add SYSTEMD_INSTANCE env variable to identify different instances (!906) Bugfixes -------- - correctly use EDNS(0) padding in failed answers (!921) - policy and daf modules: fix postrules and reroute rules (!901) - renumber module: don't accidentally zero-out request's .state (!901) Full changelog: https://gitlab.labs.nic.cz/knot/knot-resolver/raw/v5.0.0/NEWS Sources: https://secure.nic.cz/files/knot-resolver/knot-resolver-5.0.0.tar.xz GPG signature: https://secure.nic.cz/files/knot-resolver/knot-resolver-5.0.0.tar.xz.asc Documentation: https://knot-resolver.readthedocs.io/en/v5.0.0/ -- Tomas Krizek PGP: 4A8B A48C 2AED 933B D495 C509 A1FB A5F7 EF8C 4869

Re: [knot-resolver-users] knot-resolver-users Digest, Vol 93, Issue 1

by Milan Jeskynka Kazatel

Hello Petr, many thanks for your hint regarding modules.unload('bogus_log') I´m still facing the service kresd@1 crashes without any obvious reasons. Today I did a second try to upgrade to Knot Resover to version 4.2.2 and the upgrade seems to be ok, service can start without any difficulties. It runs as expected more than 3,5 hour, but unfortunately, it starts to write in the log the same messages as was reported in my previous post and the service get restart by itself. Every restarts couse a new sevice PID in /var/cache/ knot-resolver/tty, the old one was not correctly finished and the whole operating system goes to a visible slowdown. I don´t know how to do an exact sevice crashdump file, but I can provide any log messages if needed. I unload the bogus_log. The service runs now just a while. My usual dns queries throughput is around 700qps and I have only one PID in /var/cache/knot-resolver/tty as usual.

This is secure default and should not be changed unless absolutely necessary. Options in this section are intended only for expert users and normally should not be needed. If you really need to turn DNSSEC off and are okay with lowering security of your system by doing so, add the following snippet to your configuration file. -- turns off DNSSEC validation trust_anchors.remove ('.'). *** Anyway, if it is enabled by default, how to prevent the "DNSSEC validation failure" spamming in the log and increasing the I/O operation on the system?

Knot Resolver 4.2.2

by Milan Jeskynka Kazatel

Hello Team, I would like to ask why my new version of Knot Resolver does many records of "DNSSEC validation failure szn-broken-dnssec.cz. DNSKEY" I tried to compare results with my second resolver on Unbound 1.9.4 where I' m able to receive an answer by command #unbound-control lookup szn-broken- dnssec.cz but no answer via dig command #dig szn-broken-dnssec.cz The same result via dig is on the server with new Knot Resolver 4.2.2 As was mentioned in your documentation https://knot-resolver.readthedocs.io/ en/stable/modules.html#dnssec-validation-failure-logging (https://knot-resolver.readthedocs.io/en/stable/modules.html#dnssec-validati…) I tried the https://dnsviz.net/d/szn-broken-dnssec.cz/dnssec/ (https://dnsviz.net/d/szn-broken-dnssec.cz/dnssec/) and the result is BOGUS, then should I be worried about this message in my log? Thanks for any answer, best regards -- Smil Milan Jeskyňka Kazatel
