Subject: RFP: dnsdiag -- DNS Diagnostics and Performance Measurement Tools

Date: Wed, 18 May 2016 11:23:15 -0400

Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist

* Package name    : dnsdiag
  Version         : 1.3.4
  Upstream Author : Babak Farrokhi <babak@farrokhi.net>
* URL             : https://dnsdiag.org/
* License         : 2-clause BSD
  Programming Lang: Python
  Description     : DNS Diagnostics and Performance Measurement Tools

Ever been wondering if your ISP is hijacking your DNS traffic? Ever
observed any misbehavior with your DNS responses? Ever been redirected
to wrong address and suspected something is wrong with your DNS? Here
we have a set of tools to perform basic audits on your DNS requests
and responses to make sure your DNS is working as you expect.

You can measure the response time of any given DNS server for
arbitrary requests using dnsping. Just like traditional ping utility,
it gives you similar functionality for DNS requests.

You can also trace the path your DNS request takes to destination to
make sure it is not being redirected or hijacked. This can be done by
comparing different DNS queries being sent to the same DNS server
using dnstraceroute and observe if there is any difference between the
path.

dnseval evaluates multiple DNS resolvers and helps you choose the best
DNS server for your network. While it is highly recommended to use
your own DNS resolver and never trust any third-party DNS server, but
in case you need to choose the best DNS forwarder for your network,
dnseval lets you compare different DNS servers from performance
(latency) and reliability (loss) point of view.

----

Similar to SMTP ping, this tool can also be used to run network
diagnostics in restricted environment. It can also be used to detect
DNS hijacking and tampering.

I also hope it can eventually replace commercial tools like DNSstuff
or intodns.com:

https://github.com/farrokhi/dnsdiag/issues/16

It has all the components to build such a tool already factored in.

Speaking of which, dnsdiag has two dependencies that could be an issue
in Debian. It depends on python-dnspython which is packaged already,
but dnstraceroute requires a modification to the code. It is unclear
for now which exactly are the modifications required, so I asked
upstream for clarification in that regard:

https://github.com/farrokhi/dnsdiag/issues/17

The other bit of the puzzle is the "cymruwhois" package. It seems it
is only used to do IP to ASN lookups:

https://github.com/farrokhi/dnsdiag/blob/b2dab7affcb9a535bbf0e9f7bb4cac5d330a6368/dnstraceroute.py#L86

Yet the current python-whois package in Debian doesn't support that:

>>> import whois
>>> domain = whois.query('199.58.80.1')
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/whois/__init__.py", line 47, in query
    if tld not in TLD_RE.keys(): raise Exception('Unknown TLD: %s\n(all known TLD: %s)' % (tld, list(TLD_RE.keys())))
Exception: Unknown TLD: 1
(all known TLD: ['biz', 'org', 'name', 'me', 'at', 'us', 'de', 'co', 'jp', 'lv', 'ru', 'be', 'net', 'co_jp', 'uk', 'eu', 'nz', 'com', 'fr', 'it', 'info', 'pl', 'cz'])

... so it would seem that library would need to be packaged
separately.

The thing is on pipy so it should be fairly simple to ship:

https://pypi.python.org/pypi/cymruwhois

however, the releases on pypi are out of date because the author can't
seem to ship new packages there:

https://github.com/JustinAzoff/python-cymruwhois/issues/4

so care should be taken in using the github packages (1.5+), and not
the pypi ones:

https://github.com/JustinAzoff/python-cymruwhois/releases

[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Glad to see some progress on this.

It seems that the patches for dnspython have all been merged upstream
and that dnsdiag now uses dnspython cleanly:

https://github.com/farrokhi/dnsdiag/issues/17#issuecomment-254445188

I believe this removes the last blocker you have documented for
packaging this.

Good luck with the packaging, let me know if you need help!

Great news, thanks! Aiming to get it done by the end of the week.

If you don't mind you could check the package once I've uploaded it to
mentors.debian.net and then you could be my sponsor for this one?

Ana

Hi,

I will unfortunately not be able to followup with this until january.

Please find another mentor if you wish to get earlier feedback.

Otherwise you will probably have to re-upload this when I need to look
at it again, because packages expire quickly on mentors.d.n... :/

Sorry for the inconvenience...

Hi,

I was wondering if you're still interested in sponsoring this, it's
still on mentors if you happen to have time to look at it. If not,
that's ok as there's someone else I can potentially ask.

Let me know and thanks again!

Ana

Hi,

Sorry for the delay, here's a quick review.

(1) The package description could be improved... Use more spaces between
paragraphs. In control files, paragraphs are marked like this:

"""
 Here is a set of tools to perform basic audits on your DNS requests and
 responses to make sure your DNS is working as you expect.  You can
 measure the response time of any given DNS server for arbitrary
 requests using dnsping. Just like traditional ping utility, it gives
 you similar functionality for DNS requests.
 .
 You can also trace the path your DNS request takes to destination to make sure
 it is not being redirected or hijacked. 
"""

Notice the line with a simple dot on it?

(2) Also, I would remove the series of questions on the first lines of
the description. We are aiming at more neutral description of what the
package does, not an advertisement. :)

(3) The Vcs-Git line is incorrect - it needs to be a proper git URL:

$ git clone https://anonscm.debian.org/git/pkg-netmeasure/dnsdiag.git
Clonage dans 'dnsdiag'...
fatal: repository 'https://anonscm.debian.org/git/pkg-netmeasure/dnsdiag.git/' not found

I suggest you use collab-maint as it is easy to get access to it. If you
already have access to the pkg-netmeasure group, that's fine too, but be
sure to push your changes there. See this page for collab-maint:

https://wiki.debian.org/CollaborativeMaintenance

(4) Why do you use a `.install` file instead of letting the regular
setup.py install targets do their thing?

(5) in the patches, I recommend you follow the patch tagging guidelines
documented here:

http://dep.debian.net/deps/dep3/

for example, i'd be curious to hear why the cmrywhois patch is required
or what the "test.diff" patch actually does (or why it's called
"test"!)...

(6) the watch file is a bit odd - there's a commented out line, but then
it still kind of works because the next line kicks in... it confuses the
mentors site as well, so you probably want to clean that up.

Otherwise I tested the package and it looks sound - the above is mostly
small details and changes, but those will sure be a problem when we do
the first upload, so make sure to followup on those. :)

Thanks for packaging dnsdiag! Unfortunately, it is too late to make it
into stretch, and that's my fault, but we will be able to backport this
fairly easily I believe...

Cheers,

A.

Hi Antoine, 

Many thanks for the review, it is greatly appreciated.

Done.

Removed the questions and reworded the description slightly.

Usually I go on alioth to create and push the repo after everything has
been reviewed, so yes, it does not exist yet.
Have recently gained access to collab-maint, will push there.

This needs to be forwarded upstream I think, there is a problem with 
setup.py. Without the install file we get an empty package. You can try
to do find_packages() to see python does not find any, or take out the
install file and build the package to reproduce the issue. I've changed
the solution slightly by now installing the scripts directly in /usr/bin
and renaming them, and patched out the entry_points in setup.py.

I deleted test.diff with quilt but it must have ended up in a commit. It
was a sorry attempt at fixing setup.py, the file is gone now. Have added
more info in the header for the cymruwhois patch, let me know if that
looks ok.

Done, removed the comment.

Thank you again for your feedback, I found it to be very constructive.
Have reuploaded on mentors and pushed to collab-maint.

Ana

Alright, that looks all good to me. The only concern that remains is
that I just noticed a 1.5.1 release on PyPI that is not on github - i
wonder if we should be shipping that instead...

I filed a bug upstream to try to get them to clarify that:

https://github.com/farrokhi/dnsdiag/issues/33

That would affect where we point the watch file, among other things.

I went ahead and just uploaded 1.4.0 as is so we get a slot in the NEW
queue already.

Hi Antoine.

Thank you very much for your help with this! If upstream clarifies the
version situation I will update the package/make the necessary changes.
Will also do a backport for stretch when the time comes.

Regards,
Ana

That's great, let me know when there's anything else to package!

Oh, and by the way, i pushed a tag for the debian package:

[1092]anarcat@curie:dnsdiag$ gbp buildpackage --git-tag --git-tag-only
dh clean --with python3 --buildsystem=pybuild
   dh_testdir -O--buildsystem=pybuild

I: pybuild base:184: python3.5 setup.py clean

We should probably do this whenever we do an upload... But i wonder if
you should do it or if i should do it when i finally do the upload?

Up to you, really. :)

Cheers and congratulations again!
