52/** @file event2/dns.h
53 *
54 * Welcome, gentle reader
55 *
56 * Async DNS lookups are really a whole lot harder than they should be,
57 * mostly stemming from the fact that the libc resolver has never been
58 * very good at them. Before you use this library you should see if libc
59 * can do the job for you with the modern async call getaddrinfo_a
60 * (see http://www.imperialviolet.org/page25.html#e498). Otherwise,
61 * please continue.
62 *
63 * The library keeps track of the state of nameservers and will avoid
64 * them when they go down. Otherwise it will round robin between them.
65 *
66 * Quick start guide:
67 *   #include "evdns.h"
68 *   void callback(int result, char type, int count, int ttl,
69 *		 void *addresses, void *arg);
70 *   evdns_resolv_conf_parse(DNS_OPTIONS_ALL, "/etc/resolv.conf");
71 *   evdns_resolve("www.hostname.com", 0, callback, NULL);
72 *
73 * When the lookup is complete the callback function is called. The
74 * first argument will be one of the DNS_ERR_* defines in evdns.h.
75 * Hopefully it will be DNS_ERR_NONE, in which case type will be
76 * DNS_IPv4_A, count will be the number of IP addresses, ttl is the time
77 * which the data can be cached for (in seconds), addresses will point
78 * to an array of uint32_t's and arg will be whatever you passed to
79 * evdns_resolve.
80 *
81 * Searching:
82 *
83 * In order for this library to be a good replacement for glibc's resolver it
84 * supports searching. This involves setting a list of default domains, in
85 * which names will be queried for. The number of dots in the query name
86 * determines the order in which this list is used.
87 *
88 * Searching appears to be a single lookup from the point of view of the API,
89 * although many DNS queries may be generated from a single call to
90 * evdns_resolve. Searching can also drastically slow down the resolution
91 * of names.
92 *
93 * To disable searching:
94 *   1. Never set it up. If you never call evdns_resolv_conf_parse or
95 *   evdns_search_add then no searching will occur.
96 *
97 *   2. If you do call evdns_resolv_conf_parse then don't pass
98 *   DNS_OPTION_SEARCH (or DNS_OPTIONS_ALL, which implies it).
99 *
100 *   3. When calling evdns_resolve, pass the DNS_QUERY_NO_SEARCH flag.
101 *
102 * The order of searches depends on the number of dots in the name. If the
103 * number is greater than the ndots setting then the names is first tried
104 * globally. Otherwise each search domain is appended in turn.
105 *
106 * The ndots setting can either be set from a resolv.conf, or by calling
107 * evdns_search_ndots_set.
108 *
109 * For example, with ndots set to 1 (the default) and a search domain list of
110 * ["myhome.net"]:
111 *  Query: www
112 *  Order: www.myhome.net, www.
113 *
114 *  Query: www.abc
115 *  Order: www.abc., www.abc.myhome.net
116 *
117 * Internals:
118 *
119 * Requests are kept in two queues. The first is the inflight queue. In
120 * this queue requests have an allocated transaction id and nameserver.
121 * They will soon be transmitted if they haven't already been.
122 *
123 * The second is the waiting queue. The size of the inflight ring is
124 * limited and all other requests wait in waiting queue for space. This
125 * bounds the number of concurrent requests so that we don't flood the
126 * nameserver. Several algorithms require a full walk of the inflight
127 * queue and so bounding its size keeps thing going nicely under huge
128 * (many thousands of requests) loads.
129 *
130 * If a nameserver loses too many requests it is considered down and we
131 * try not to use it. After a while we send a probe to that nameserver
132 * (a lookup for google.com) and, if it replies, we consider it working
133 * again. If the nameserver fails a probe we wait longer to try again
134 * with the next probe.
