50/** @file event2/dns.h
51 *
52 * Welcome, gentle reader
53 *
54 * Async DNS lookups are really a whole lot harder than they should be,
55 * mostly stemming from the fact that the libc resolver has never been
56 * very good at them. Before you use this library you should see if libc
57 * can do the job for you with the modern async call getaddrinfo_a
58 * (see http://www.imperialviolet.org/page25.html#e498). Otherwise,
59 * please continue.
60 *
61 * The library keeps track of the state of nameservers and will avoid
62 * them when they go down. Otherwise it will round robin between them.
63 *
64 * Quick start guide:
65 *   #include "evdns.h"
66 *   void callback(int result, char type, int count, int ttl,
67 *		 void *addresses, void *arg);
68 *   evdns_resolv_conf_parse(DNS_OPTIONS_ALL, "/etc/resolv.conf");
69 *   evdns_resolve("www.hostname.com", 0, callback, NULL);
70 *
71 * When the lookup is complete the callback function is called. The
72 * first argument will be one of the DNS_ERR_* defines in evdns.h.
73 * Hopefully it will be DNS_ERR_NONE, in which case type will be
74 * DNS_IPv4_A, count will be the number of IP addresses, ttl is the time
75 * which the data can be cached for (in seconds), addresses will point
76 * to an array of uint32_t's and arg will be whatever you passed to
77 * evdns_resolve.
78 *
79 * Searching:
80 *
81 * In order for this library to be a good replacement for glibc's resolver it
82 * supports searching. This involves setting a list of default domains, in
83 * which names will be queried for. The number of dots in the query name
84 * determines the order in which this list is used.
85 *
86 * Searching appears to be a single lookup from the point of view of the API,
87 * although many DNS queries may be generated from a single call to
88 * evdns_resolve. Searching can also drastically slow down the resolution
89 * of names.
90 *
91 * To disable searching:
92 *   1. Never set it up. If you never call evdns_resolv_conf_parse or
93 *   evdns_search_add then no searching will occur.
94 *
95 *   2. If you do call evdns_resolv_conf_parse then don't pass
96 *   DNS_OPTION_SEARCH (or DNS_OPTIONS_ALL, which implies it).
97 *
98 *   3. When calling evdns_resolve, pass the DNS_QUERY_NO_SEARCH flag.
99 *
100 * The order of searches depends on the number of dots in the name. If the
101 * number is greater than the ndots setting then the names is first tried
102 * globally. Otherwise each search domain is appended in turn.
103 *
104 * The ndots setting can either be set from a resolv.conf, or by calling
105 * evdns_search_ndots_set.
106 *
107 * For example, with ndots set to 1 (the default) and a search domain list of
108 * ["myhome.net"]:
109 *  Query: www
110 *  Order: www.myhome.net, www.
111 *
112 *  Query: www.abc
113 *  Order: www.abc., www.abc.myhome.net
114 *
115 * Internals:
116 *
117 * Requests are kept in two queues. The first is the inflight queue. In
118 * this queue requests have an allocated transaction id and nameserver.
119 * They will soon be transmitted if they haven't already been.
120 *
121 * The second is the waiting queue. The size of the inflight ring is
122 * limited and all other requests wait in waiting queue for space. This
123 * bounds the number of concurrent requests so that we don't flood the
124 * nameserver. Several algorithms require a full walk of the inflight
125 * queue and so bounding its size keeps thing going nicely under huge
126 * (many thousands of requests) loads.
127 *
128 * If a nameserver loses too many requests it is considered down and we
129 * try not to use it. After a while we send a probe to that nameserver
130 * (a lookup for google.com) and, if it replies, we consider it working
131 * again. If the nameserver fails a probe we wait longer to try again
132 * with the next probe.
