Subject: libc6: Programs should reload /etc/resolv.conf when it changes

Date: Sat, 18 Sep 2004 23:15:08 +0200

Package:  libc6
Version:  2.3.2.ds1-16
Tags:     patch
Severity: wishlist

The current DNS resolver in glibc only read the content of
/etc/resolv.conf when a program starts (or during the first call to
one of the resolver function).  This is a problem for long-lasting
programs on for example laptops, where the content of the file may
change when a new IP configuration is fetched using DHCP.  A
workaround is to use nscd and call 'nscd -i hosts' when the file
changes, but it would be better if the content of the file was reread
automatically when it changes.

The following patch by Torstein Kukuk from
<URL:http://sources.redhat.com/ml/libc-alpha/2004-09/msg00130.html>
fixes this problem, by making sure the timestamp of the file is
checked every time a DNS lookup is done.

Please include this patch in the default glibc used in Debian.  It
would make it so much useful on machines with changing IP
configuration.

Hi!

You want each program statting /etc/resolv.conf all the time?

Why not?  The amount of data is very small, and would be cached by the kernel.

Besides, the stats only would happen when attempting to resolve a hostname
(which has a much higher cost in system resources then a simple stat).  I don't
think the overhead would be significant.

FWIW, we did this in Ubuntu for Dapper and it works very well.  I have a
quilt file for 2.3/2.4 that I could put in if everyone agrees.

   * New upstream version 2.4:
     - NPTL is used instead of linuxthreads on alpha.  Closes: #325600.
     - NPTL being the default thread library when available, only one
       version of the thread library is available (either linuxthreads or
       NPTL).  Closes: #399035.
     - .eh_frame has been fixed.  Closes: #349688.
     - Fix a memory leak in getprotobyname. Closes: #365233.
     - Support for MALLOC_PERTURB has been added.  Closes: #350579.
     - Support for 2.4 kernels has been removed.  Closes: #258740.
