/** @file evdns.h
*
* Welcome, gentle reader
*
* Async DNS lookups are really a whole lot harder than they should be,
* mostly stemming from the fact that the libc resolver has never been
* very good at them. Before you use this library you should see if libc
* can do the job for you with the modern async call getaddrinfo_a
* (see http://www.imperialviolet.org/page25.html#e498). Otherwise,
* please continue.
*
* This code is based on libevent and you must call event_init before
* any of the APIs in this file. You must also seed the OpenSSL random
* source if you are using OpenSSL for ids (see below).
*
* This library is designed to be included and shipped with your source
* code. You statically link with it. You should also test for the
* existence of strtok_r and define HAVE_STRTOK_R if you have it.
*
* The DNS protocol requires a good source of id numbers and these
* numbers should be unpredictable for spoofing reasons. There are
* three methods for generating them here and you must define exactly
* one of them. In increasing order of preference:
*
* DNS_USE_GETTIMEOFDAY_FOR_ID:
* Using the bottom 16 bits of the usec result from gettimeofday. This
* is a pretty poor solution but should work anywhere.
* DNS_USE_CPU_CLOCK_FOR_ID:
* Using the bottom 16 bits of the nsec result from the CPU's time
* counter. This is better, but may not work everywhere. Requires
* POSIX realtime support and you'll need to link against -lrt on
* glibc systems at least.
* DNS_USE_OPENSSL_FOR_ID:
* Uses the OpenSSL RAND_bytes call to generate the data. You must
* have seeded the pool before making any calls to this library.
*
* The library keeps track of the state of nameservers and will avoid
* them when they go down. Otherwise it will round robin between them.
*
* Quick start guide:
* #include "evdns.h"
* void callback(int result, char type, int count, int ttl,
* void *addresses, void *arg);
* evdns_resolv_conf_parse(DNS_OPTIONS_ALL, "/etc/resolv.conf");
* evdns_resolve("www.hostname.com", 0, callback, NULL);
*
* When the lookup is complete the callback function is called. The
* first argument will be one of the DNS_ERR_* defines in evdns.h.
* Hopefully it will be DNS_ERR_NONE, in which case type will be
* DNS_IPv4_A, count will be the number of IP addresses, ttl is the time
* which the data can be cached for (in seconds), addresses will point
* to an array of uint32_t's and arg will be whatever you passed to
* evdns_resolve.
*
* Searching:
*
* In order for this library to be a good replacement for glibc's resolver it
* supports searching. This involves setting a list of default domains, in
* which names will be queried for. The number of dots in the query name
* determines the order in which this list is used.
*
* Searching appears to be a single lookup from the point of view of the API,
* although many DNS queries may be generated from a single call to
* evdns_resolve. Searching can also drastically slow down the resolution
* of names.
*
* To disable searching:
* 1. Never set it up. If you never call evdns_resolv_conf_parse or
* evdns_search_add then no searching will occur.
*
* 2. If you do call evdns_resolv_conf_parse then don't pass
* DNS_OPTION_SEARCH (or DNS_OPTIONS_ALL, which implies it).
*
* 3. When calling evdns_resolve, pass the DNS_QUERY_NO_SEARCH flag.
*
* The order of searches depends on the number of dots in the name. If the
* number is greater than the ndots setting then the names is first tried
* globally. Otherwise each search domain is appended in turn.
*
* The ndots setting can either be set from a resolv.conf, or by calling
* evdns_search_ndots_set.
*
* For example, with ndots set to 1 (the default) and a search domain list of
* ["myhome.net"]:
* Query: www
* Order: www.myhome.net, www.
*
* Query: www.abc
* Order: www.abc., www.abc.myhome.net
*
* Internals:
*
* Requests are kept in two queues. The first is the inflight queue. In
* this queue requests have an allocated transaction id and nameserver.
* They will soon be transmitted if they haven't already been.
*
* The second is the waiting queue. The size of the inflight ring is
* limited and all other requests wait in waiting queue for space. This
* bounds the number of concurrent requests so that we don't flood the
* nameserver. Several algorithms require a full walk of the inflight
* queue and so bounding its size keeps thing going nicely under huge
* (many thousands of requests) loads.
*
* If a nameserver loses too many requests it is considered down and we
* try not to use it. After a while we send a probe to that nameserver
* (a lookup for google.com) and, if it replies, we consider it working
* again. If the nameserver fails a probe we wait longer to try again
* with the next probe.
