FreeBSD maintainer's guide to updating BIND 9.4.x ================================================= 1) Obtain the latest source distribution from the ISC's FTP server (ftp://ftp.isc.org/isc/bind9/) 2) Check out the head of the subversion "vendor branch" svn co $REPO/vendor/bind9/dist-9.4 3) Unpack the tarball in a suitable directory: tar zxvf bind-9.4..tar.gz -X dist-9.4/FREEBSD-Xlist Check to see if any files have been added or deleted using diff -ur dist-9.4 bind-9.4. -x \.svn | grep 'Only in' 4) Copy new files over the old ones: cp -Rp bind-9.4./* dist-9.4/ 5) Double-check for changes using 'svn status' 6) Use 'svn add' and 'svn rm' to bring dist up to date for files found above. Update FREEBSD-Xlist as needed. The files in vendor/bind9/dist-9.4 should now look exactly like those in the ISC sources, minus the files/directories in FREEBSD-Xlist above. Carefully check the output of 'svn status' and 'svn diff' It's not if you're paranoid, it's if you are paranoid enough 7) Commit the update to the vendor files: cd dist-9.4 ; svn ci -m "Vendor import of BIND 9.4.X" svn cp $REPO/vendor/bind9/dist-9.4 $REPO/vendor/bind9/${version} (this is a server-side operation, you dont have to check it out) 8) Update the files in stable/7/contrib/bind9: cd stable/7/contrib/bind9 Make sure you are up to date: svn update ; svn status svn merge $REPO/vendor/bind9/dist-9.4 . Resolve conflicts (if any) Carefully check the output of 'svn status' and 'svn diff' NOTE: You may need 2 copies of stable/7/contrib/bind9 at this point, one to do the work in steps 9 and 10 below, and a clean version to commit in step 16. 9) Remove any references to the {bin,lib}/tests and docutil directories from the configure and Makefile templates: $ sed -i.orig -e '/\/tests/d; /docutil/d; /\/xsl/d;' \ configure.in Makefile.in */Makefile.in Please do not commit this change. You only need this to generate config.h. 10) Generate and run configure: aclocal ; autoheader ; autoconf cd lib/bind aclocal ; autoheader ; autoconf cd ../.. $ ./configure --prefix=/usr \ --infodir=/usr/share/info --mandir=/usr/share/man \ --enable-threads --enable-libbind --disable-ipv6 \ --enable-getifaddrs --disable-linux-caps \ --with-openssl=/usr --with-randomdev=/dev/random Note that we intentionally disable IPv6 support on the configure command line; stable/7/lib/bind/config.mk will re-enable it at compile time if WITHOUT_INET6 is not defined. 11) Copy the following generated files to stable/7/lib/bind: Path in stable/7/contrib/bind9 Path in stable/7/lib/bind ------------------------------------------------------------ s=../../lib/bind cp config.h ${s}/config.h cp lib/bind/config.h ${s}/bind/config.h cp lib/bind/port_after.h ${s}/bind/port_after.h cp lib/bind/port_before.h ${s}/bind/port_before.h cp lib/isc/include/isc/platform.h ${s}/isc/isc/platform.h cp lib/lwres/include/lwres/netdb.h ${s}/lwres/lwres/netdb.h cp lib/lwres/include/lwres/platform.h ${s}/lwres/lwres/platform.h Do not commit any other file that was modified or created in steps 6) or 7). 12) cd stable/7/lib/bind/dns && make -DMAINTAINER_MODE generate && rm gen 13) Test build the updated files with a clean /usr/obj and empty src.conf The following directories contain Makefiles for bits and pieces of BIND 9: FreeBSD directory ISC directory ======================================================== stable/7/lib/bind bind9/lib stable/7/lib/bind/bind bind9/lib/bind stable/7/lib/bind/bind9 bind9/lib/bind9 stable/7/lib/bind/dns bind9/lib/dns stable/7/lib/bind/isc bind9/lib/isc stable/7/lib/bind/isccc bind9/lib/isccc stable/7/lib/bind/isccfg bind9/lib/isccfg stable/7/lib/bind/lwres bind9/lib/lwres stable/7/share/doc/bind9 bind9/doc/{arm,misc} stable/7/usr.bin/dig bind9/bin/dig stable/7/usr.bin/host bind9/bin/dig stable/7/usr.bin/nslookup bind9/bin/dig stable/7/usr.bin/nsupdate bind9/bin/nsupdate stable/7/usr.sbin/dnssec-keygen bind9/bin/dnssec stable/7/usr.sbin/dnssec-signzone bind9/bin/dnssec stable/7/usr.sbin/named bind9/bin/named stable/7/usr.sbin/named-checkconf bind9/bin/check stable/7/usr.sbin/named-checkzone bind9/bin/check stable/7/usr.sbin/rndc bind9/bin/rndc stable/7/usr.sbin/rndc-confgen bind9/bin/rndc Make sure that the lists of sources, headers and man pages in each FreeBSD Makefile accurately reflects those in the corresponding ISC Makefile. Please strive to keep those lists in the same order and with line breaks in the same places to ease future comparisons. 14) Build and test. 15) Lather, rinse, repeat. 16) Commit when everything builds cleanly and works properly. -- des@FreeBSD.org -- dougb@FreeBSD.org $FreeBSD$
