feat(lisp/dns): Check in initial DNS message implementation
This uses lisp-binary to define serialisation types for the DNS messages defined by RFC 1035. Currently the compression scheme used for QNAMEs is not supported, hence deserialisation of even simple records fails after the header and question sections are read.

|
;; Various objects and parameters in the DNS have size limits. They are

|

|
;; 3. DOMAIN NAME SPACE AND RR DEFINITIONS
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
;; Domain names in messages are expressed in terms of a sequence of labels.
|
||||||
|
;; Each label is represented as a one octet length field followed by that
|
||||||
|
;; number of octets. Since every domain name ends with the null label of
|
||||||
|
;; the root, a domain name is terminated by a length byte of zero. The
|
||||||
|
;; high order two bits of every length octet must be zero, and the
|
||||||
|
;; remaining six bits of the length field limit the label to 63 octets or
|
||||||
|
;; less.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
;; To simplify implementations, the total length of a domain name (i.e.,
|
||||||
|
;; label octets and label length octets) is restricted to 255 octets or
|
||||||
|
;; less.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
;; Although labels can contain any 8 bit values in octets that make up a
|
||||||
|
;; label, it is strongly recommended that labels follow the preferred
|
||||||
|
;; syntax described elsewhere in this memo, which is compatible with
|
||||||
|
;; existing host naming conventions. Name servers and resolvers must
|
||||||
|
;; compare labels in a case-insensitive manner (i.e., A=a), assuming ASCII
|
||||||
|
;; with zero parity. Non-alphabetic codes must match exactly.

|
;; Most of these fields are pertinent only for name server maintenance

|
;; query, the TTL field is set to the maximum of the TTL field from the RR

|
;; and the MINIMUM field in the appropriate SOA. Thus MINIMUM is a lower
|
||||||
|
;; bound on the TTL field for all RRs in a zone. Note that this use of
|
||||||
|
;; MINIMUM should occur when the RRs are copied into the response and not
|
||||||
|
;; when the zone is loaded from a master file or via a zone transfer. The
|
||||||
|
;; reason for this provison is to allow future dynamic update facilities to
|

|
||||||
|

|
;; <BIT MAP> A variable length bit map. The bit map must be a

|

|
|
||||||
|
;; The WKS record is used to describe the well known services supported by
|
||||||
|
;; a particular protocol on a particular internet address. The PROTOCOL
|
||||||
|
;; field specifies an IP protocol number, and the bit map has one bit per
|
||||||
|
;; port of the specified protocol. The first bit corresponds to port 0,
|
||||||
|
;; the second to port 1, etc. If the bit map does not include a bit for a
|
||||||
|
;; protocol of interest, that bit is assumed zero. The appropriate values
|
||||||
|
;; and mnemonics for ports and protocols are specified in [RFC-1010].
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
;; For example, if PROTOCOL=TCP (6), the 26th bit corresponds to TCP port
|
||||||
|
;; 25 (SMTP). If this bit is set, a SMTP server should be listening on TCP
|
||||||
|
;; port 25; if zero, SMTP service is not supported on the specified
|
||||||
|
;; address.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
;; The purpose of WKS RRs is to provide availability information for
|
||||||
|
;; servers for TCP and UDP. If a server supports both TCP and UDP, or has
|
||||||
|
;; multiple Internet addresses, then multiple WKS RRs are used.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
;; WKS RRs cause no additional section processing.
|

;; or decimal numbers.
|

|

|
;; 3.5. IN-ADDR.ARPA domain
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
;; The Internet uses a special domain to support gateway location and
|
||||||
|
;; Internet address to host mapping. Other classes may employ a similar
|
||||||
|
;; strategy in other domains. The intent of this domain is to provide a
|
||||||
|
;; guaranteed method to perform host address to host name mapping, and to
|
||||||
|
;; facilitate queries to locate all gateways on a particular network in the
|
||||||
|
;; Internet.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
;; Note that both of these services are similar to functions that could be
|
||||||
|
;; performed by inverse queries; the difference is that this part of the
|
||||||
|
;; domain name space is structured according to address, and hence can
|
||||||
|
;; guarantee that the appropriate data can be located without an exhaustive
|
||||||
|
;; search of the domain space.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
;; The domain begins at IN-ADDR.ARPA and has a substructure which follows
|
||||||
|
;; the Internet addressing structure.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
;; Domain names in the IN-ADDR.ARPA domain are defined to have up to four
|
||||||
|
;; labels in addition to the IN-ADDR.ARPA suffix. Each label represents
|
||||||
|
;; one octet of an Internet address, and is expressed as a character string
|
||||||
|
;; for a decimal value in the range 0-255 (with leading zeros omitted
|
||||||
|
;; except in the case of a zero octet which is represented by a single
|
||||||
|
;; zero).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
;; Host addresses are represented by domain names that have all four labels
|
||||||
|
;; specified. Thus data for Internet address 10.2.0.52 is located at
|
||||||
|
;; domain name 52.0.2.10.IN-ADDR.ARPA. The reversal, though awkward to
|
||||||
|
;; read, allows zones to be delegated which are exactly one network of
|
||||||
|
;; address space. For example, 10.IN-ADDR.ARPA can be a zone containing
|
||||||
|
;; data for the ARPANET, while 26.IN-ADDR.ARPA can be a separate zone for
|
||||||
|
;; MILNET. Address nodes are used to hold pointers to primary host names
|
||||||
|
;; in the normal domain space.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
;; Network numbers correspond to some non-terminal nodes at various depths
|
||||||
|
;; in the IN-ADDR.ARPA domain, since Internet network numbers are either 1,
|
||||||
|
;; 2, or 3 octets. Network nodes are used to hold pointers to the primary
|
||||||
|
;; host names of gateways attached to that network. Since a gateway is, by
|
||||||
|
;; definition, on more than one network, it will typically have two or more
|
||||||
|
;; network nodes which point at it. Gateways will also have host level
|
||||||
|
;; pointers at their fully qualified addresses.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
;; Both the gateway pointers at network nodes and the normal host pointers
|
||||||
|
;; at full address nodes use the PTR RR to point back to the primary domain
|
||||||
|
;; names of the corresponding hosts.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
;; For example, the IN-ADDR.ARPA domain will contain information about the
|
||||||
|
;; ISI gateway between net 10 and 26, an MIT gateway from net 10 to MIT's
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
;; net 18, and hosts A.ISI.EDU and MULTICS.MIT.EDU. Assuming that ISI
|
||||||
|
;; gateway has addresses 10.2.0.22 and 26.0.0.103, and a name MILNET-
|
||||||
|
;; GW.ISI.EDU, and the MIT gateway has addresses 10.0.0.77 and 18.10.0.4
|
||||||
|
;; and a name GW.LCS.MIT.EDU, the domain database would contain:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
;; 10.IN-ADDR.ARPA. PTR MILNET-GW.ISI.EDU.
|
||||||
|
;; 10.IN-ADDR.ARPA. PTR GW.LCS.MIT.EDU.
|
||||||
|
;; 18.IN-ADDR.ARPA. PTR GW.LCS.MIT.EDU.
|
||||||
|
;; 26.IN-ADDR.ARPA. PTR MILNET-GW.ISI.EDU.
|
||||||
|
;; 22.0.2.10.IN-ADDR.ARPA. PTR MILNET-GW.ISI.EDU.
|
||||||
|
;; 103.0.0.26.IN-ADDR.ARPA. PTR MILNET-GW.ISI.EDU.
|
||||||
|
;; 77.0.0.10.IN-ADDR.ARPA. PTR GW.LCS.MIT.EDU.
|
||||||
|
;; 4.0.10.18.IN-ADDR.ARPA. PTR GW.LCS.MIT.EDU.
|
||||||
|
;; 103.0.3.26.IN-ADDR.ARPA. PTR A.ISI.EDU.
|
||||||
|
;; 6.0.0.10.IN-ADDR.ARPA. PTR MULTICS.MIT.EDU.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
;; Thus a program which wanted to locate gateways on net 10 would originate
|
||||||
|
;; a query of the form QTYPE=PTR, QCLASS=IN, QNAME=10.IN-ADDR.ARPA. It
|
||||||
|
;; would receive two RRs in response:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
;; 10.IN-ADDR.ARPA. PTR MILNET-GW.ISI.EDU.
|
||||||
|
;; 10.IN-ADDR.ARPA. PTR GW.LCS.MIT.EDU.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
;; The program could then originate QTYPE=A, QCLASS=IN queries for MILNET-
|
||||||
|
;; GW.ISI.EDU. and GW.LCS.MIT.EDU. to discover the Internet addresses of
|
||||||
|
;; these gateways.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
;; A resolver which wanted to find the host name corresponding to Internet
|
||||||
|
;; host address 10.0.0.6 would pursue a query of the form QTYPE=PTR,
|
||||||
|
;; QCLASS=IN, QNAME=6.0.0.10.IN-ADDR.ARPA, and would receive:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
;; 6.0.0.10.IN-ADDR.ARPA. PTR MULTICS.MIT.EDU.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
;; Several cautions apply to the use of these services:
|
||||||
|
;; - Since the IN-ADDR.ARPA special domain and the normal domain
|
||||||
|
;; for a particular host or gateway will be in different zones,
|
||||||
|
;; the possibility exists that that the data may be inconsistent.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
;; - Gateways will often have two names in separate domains, only
|
||||||
|
;; one of which can be primary.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
;; - Systems that use the domain database to initialize their
|
||||||
|
;; routing tables must start with enough gateway information to
|
||||||
|
;; guarantee that they can access the appropriate name server.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
;; - The gateway data only reflects the existence of a gateway in a
|
||||||
|
;; manner equivalent to the current HOSTS.TXT file. It doesn't
|
||||||
|
;; replace the dynamic availability information from GGP or EGP.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
;; 3.6. Defining new types, classes, and special namespaces
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
;; The previously defined types and classes are the ones in use as of the
|
||||||
|
;; date of this memo. New definitions should be expected. This section
|
||||||
|
;; makes some recommendations to designers considering additions to the
|
||||||
|
;; existing facilities. The mailing list NAMEDROPPERS@SRI-NIC.ARPA is the
|
||||||
|
;; forum where general discussion of design issues takes place.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
;; In general, a new type is appropriate when new information is to be
|
||||||
|
;; added to the database about an existing object, or we need new data
|
||||||
|
;; formats for some totally new object. Designers should attempt to define
|
||||||
|
;; types and their RDATA formats that are generally applicable to all
|
||||||
|
;; classes, and which avoid duplication of information. New classes are
|
||||||
|
;; appropriate when the DNS is to be used for a new protocol, etc which
|
||||||
|
;; requires new class-specific data formats, or when a copy of the existing
|
||||||
|
;; name space is desired, but a separate management domain is necessary.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
;; New types and classes need mnemonics for master files; the format of the
|
||||||
|
;; master files requires that the mnemonics for type and class be disjoint.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
;; TYPE and CLASS values must be a proper subset of QTYPEs and QCLASSes
|
||||||
|
;; respectively.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
;; The present system uses multiple RRs to represent multiple values of a
|
||||||
|
;; type rather than storing multiple values in the RDATA section of a
|
||||||
|
;; single RR. This is less efficient for most applications, but does keep
|
||||||
|
;; RRs shorter. The multiple RRs assumption is incorporated in some
|
||||||
|
;; experimental work on dynamic update methods.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
;; The present system attempts to minimize the duplication of data in the
|
||||||
|
;; database in order to insure consistency. Thus, in order to find the
|
||||||
|
;; address of the host for a mail exchange, you map the mail domain name to
|
||||||
|
;; a host name, then the host name to addresses, rather than a direct
|
||||||
|
;; mapping to host address. This approach is preferred because it avoids
|
||||||
|
;; the opportunity for inconsistency.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
;; In defining a new type of data, multiple RR types should not be used to
|
||||||
|
;; create an ordering between entries or express different formats for
|
||||||
|
;; equivalent bindings, instead this information should be carried in the
|
||||||
|
;; body of the RR and a single type used. This policy avoids problems with
|
||||||
|
;; caching multiple types and defining QTYPEs to match multiple types.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
;; For example, the original form of mail exchange binding used two RR
|
||||||
|
;; types one to represent a "closer" exchange (MD) and one to represent a
|
||||||
|
;; "less close" exchange (MF). The difficulty is that the presence of one
|
||||||
|
;; RR type in a cache doesn't convey any information about the other
|
||||||
|
;; because the query which acquired the cached information might have used
|
||||||
|
;; a QTYPE of MF, MD, or MAILA (which matched both). The redesigned
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
;; service used a single type (MX) with a "preference" value in the RDATA
|
||||||
|
;; section which can order different RRs. However, if any MX RRs are found
|
||||||
|
;; in the cache, then all should be there.
|
||||||

;; 4. MESSAGES
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
;; 4.1. Format
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
;; All communications inside of the domain protocol are carried in a single
|
||||||
|
;; format called a message. The top level format of message is divided
|
||||||
|
;; into 5 sections (some of which are empty in certain cases) shown below:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
;; The names of the sections after the header are derived from their use in
|
||||||
|
;; standard queries. The question section contains fields that describe a
|
||||||
|
;; question to a name server. These fields are a query type (QTYPE), a
|
||||||
|
;; query class (QCLASS), and a query domain name (QNAME). The last three
|
||||||
|
;; sections have the same format: a possibly empty list of concatenated
|
||||||
|
;; resource records (RRs). The answer section contains RRs that answer the
|
||||||
|
;; question; the authority section contains RRs that point toward an
|
||||||
|
;; authoritative name server; the additional records section contains RRs
|
||||||
|
;; which relate to the query, but are not strictly answers for the
|
||||||
|
;; question.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
;; The header section is always present. The header includes fields that
|
||||||
|
;; specify which of the remaining sections are present, and also specify
|
||||||
|
;; whether the message is a query or a response, a standard query or some
|
||||||

;; 4.1.4. Message compression
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
;; In order to reduce the size of messages, the domain system utilizes a
|
||||||
|
;; compression scheme which eliminates the repetition of domain names in a
|
||||||
|
;; message. In this scheme, an entire domain name or a list of labels at
|
||||||
|
;; the end of a domain name is replaced with a pointer to a prior occurance
|
||||||
|
;; of the same name.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
;; The pointer takes the form of a two octet sequence:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
;; +--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+
|
||||||
|
;; | 1 1| OFFSET |
|
||||||
|
;; +--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
;; The first two bits are ones. This allows a pointer to be distinguished
|
||||||
|
;; from a label, since the label must begin with two zero bits because
|
||||||
|
;; labels are restricted to 63 octets or less. (The 10 and 01 combinations
|
||||||
|
;; are reserved for future use.) The OFFSET field specifies an offset from
|
||||||
|
;; the start of the message (i.e., the first octet of the ID field in the
|
||||||
|
;; domain header). A zero offset specifies the first byte of the ID field,
|
||||||
|
;; etc.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
;; The compression scheme allows a domain name in a message to be
|
||||||
|
;; represented as either:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
;; - a sequence of labels ending in a zero octet
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
;; - a pointer
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
;; - a sequence of labels ending with a pointer
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
;; Pointers can only be used for occurances of a domain name where the
|
||||||
|
;; format is not class specific. If this were not the case, a name server
|
||||||
|
;; or resolver would be required to know the format of all RRs it handled.
|
||||||
|
;; As yet, there are no such cases, but they may occur in future RDATA
|
||||||
|
;; formats.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
;; If a domain name is contained in a part of the message subject to a
|
||||||
|
;; length field (such as the RDATA section of an RR), and compression is
|
||||||
|
;; used, the length of the compressed name is used in the length
|
||||||
|
;; calculation, rather than the length of the expanded name.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
;; Programs are free to avoid using pointers in messages they generate,
|
||||||
|
;; although this will reduce datagram capacity, and may cause truncation.
|
||||||
|
;; However all programs are required to understand arriving messages that
|
||||||
|
;; contain pointers.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
;; For example, a datagram might need to use the domain names F.ISI.ARPA,
|
||||||
|
;; FOO.F.ISI.ARPA, ARPA, and the root. Ignoring the other fields of the
|
||||||
|
;; message, these domain names might be represented as:
