The driver wraps the RBT database implementation used natively by BIND, and modifies the addrdataset() and substractrdataset() functions to do additional work during dynamic updates. A dynamic update modifies the target zone as usual. After that, the driver detects whether the modified RR was of type A or AAAA, and if so, attempts to appropriately generate or delete a matching PTR record in one of the two zones managed by the driver. E.g.: $ nsupdate > update add a.test. 300 IN A 192.0.2.1 > send will add the A record a.test. 300 IN A 192.0.2.1 and also automatically generate the PTR record 1.2.0.192.in-addr.arpa. 300 IN PTR a.test. AXFR and RR deletion via dynamic updates should work as usual. Deletion of a type A or AAAA record should delete the corresponding PTR record too. The zone is stored only in memory, and all changes will be lost on reload/reconfig. Hints for code readers: - Driver initialization starts in driver.c: dyndb_init() function. - New database implementation is registered by calling dns_db_register() and passing a function pointer to it. This sample uses the function create_db() to initialize the database. - Zones are created later in instance.c: load_sample_instance_zones(). - Database entry points are in structure db.c: dns_dbmethods_t sampledb_methods - sampledb_methods points to an implementation of the database interface. See the db.c: addrdataset() implementation and look at how the RBT database instance is wrapped into an additional layer of logic. |
