net/isc-dhcp4: update to 4.4.3
Internet Systems Consortium DHCP Distribution
Version 4.4.3
9 March 2022
Release Notes
NEW FEATURES
Please note that that ISC DHCP is licensed under the Mozilla Public
License, MPL 2.0. Please see https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/MPL/2.0/ to read
the MPL 2.0 license terms.
NOTE: The client and relay components are now End-Of-Life.
4.4.3 is the final release for those components.
For information on how to install, configure, and run this software, as
well as how to find documentation and report bugs, please consult the
README file.
ISC DHCP uses the standard GNU configure command for installation. Please review the
output of `./configure --help` to see what options are available.
The system has only been tested on Linux and FreeBSD, and may not work on
other platforms. Please subscribe to the dhcp-users mailing list at
https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/dhcp-users and report any problems
and/or suggested fixes to dhcp-users@lists.isc.org.
ISC DHCP is open source software maintained by Internet Systems
Consortium. This product includes cryptographic software written
by Eric Young (eay@cryptsoft.com).
Changes since 4.4.2-P1 (New Features)
- Two new OMAPI function calls were added, `dhcpctl_timed_connect()`
and `dhcpctl_timed_wait_for_completion()`. These provide timed
versions of creating a connection and waiting for an operation
to complete.
[GitLab #76]
- The BIND libraries have been updated to the latest version, 9.11.36. This \
fixes a number
of compilation issues on various systems, including OpenWRT. Thanks to
Philip Prindeville for testing on OpenWRT.
[GitLab #218, #171, #180, #192]
- Support was added for the new DHCPv4 option v6-only-preferred, specified
in RFC 8925. A new reason code, V6ONLY, was added to the client script
and the client Linux script sample was updated.
[GitLab #132]
Changes since 4.4.2-P1 (Bug Fixes)
- Minor corrections were made to allow compilation under gcc 10.
[GitLab #117]
- The logic in dhclient that causes it to decline DHCPv4 leases if the
client script exits abnormally (i.e. crashes) has been corrected.
[GitLab #123]
- The limit on the size of a lease file that can be loaded at startup
is now only enforced on 32-bit systems.
[GitLab #92]
- The PRNG initialization has been improved. It now uses the configure flag
`--with-randomdev=PATH`, which specifies the device from which to read the
initial seed. That is typically `/dev/random` (the default value) or
`/dev/urandom`, but may be specified otherwise on the local system. The old
behavior can be forced by disabling this feature (`--with-randomdev=no`).
If the initialization is disabled or reading from the random device fails,
the previous algorithm (retrieve the last four bytes of hardware addresses
from all network interfaces that have them, and use the current time and
process ID) is used.
[GitLab #197]
- A minor dhclient code fix was made to remove compilation warnings.
[GitLab #190]
- The hard-coded MD5 algorithm name was removed in OMAPI connection logic.
Previously, using any other algorithm via a key-algorithm statement would
allow OMAPI connections to be made, but subsequent actions such as updating
an object would fail.
[GitLab #148]
- The parallel build has been improved. Thanks to Sergei Trofimovich for
the patch. The parallel build is still experimental, as officially the
BIND 9 code does not support the parallel build for libraries.
[GitLab #91]
- Handling of LDAP options (`ldap-gssapi-principal` and `ldap-gssapi-keytab`)
has been improved. This is contributed code that has not been tested by ISC. Thank
you to Petr Mensik and Pavel Zhukov for the patches!
[GitLab !56,!75]
- It is now possible to use `option -g ipaddr` in the dhcrelay to replace the \
giaddr sent to
clients with the given ipaddr, to work around bogus clients like Solaris 11
grub which use giaddr instead of the announced router (3) to set up their
default route. Thanks to Jens Elkner for the patch!
[GitLab #223, !86, !92]
