Extended DNS error 22 (No reachable authority) was previously detected when `fctx_expired` fired. It turns out this function is used as a "safety net" and the timeout detection should be caught earlier.
It was working though, because of another issue fixed by !9927. But then, the recursive request timed out detection occurs before `fctx_expired` making impossible to raise the EDE 22 error.
This fixes the problem by triggering the EDE 22 in the part of the code detecting the (TCP or UDP) time out and taking the decision to cancel the whole fetch (i.e. There is no other server to attempt to contact).
Note this is not targeting users (no release note) because there is no release versions of BIND between !9927 and this changes. Thus a release note would be confusing.

The fix of the problem is to add the EDE 22 code in two situations:
- When the dispatch code timed out (rctx_timedout) the resolver code
checks various properties to figure out if it needs to make another
fetch attempt. One of the paramters if the fetch expiration time. If
it expires, the whole recursion is canceled, so it now adds the EDE 22
code.
- If the fetch expiration time doesn't expires in the case above (and
other parameters allows it) a new fetch attempt is made (fctx_query).
But before the new request is actually made, the fetch expiration time
is re-checked. It might then has elapsed, and the whole recursion is
canceled. So it now also adds the EDE 22 code here as well.

:gl:`#5083`
See https://gitlab.isc.org/isc-projects/bind9/-/issues/4795
We started using isc_nm_bad_request() more actively throughout
codebase. In the case of HTTP/2 it can lead to a large count of
useless "Bad Request" messages in the BIND log, as often we attempt to
send such request over effectively finished HTTP/2 sessions.
Do not stop timer in isc_nm_read_stop() in manual timer mode
A call to isc_nm_read_stop() would always stop reading timer even in
manual timer control mode which was added with StreamDNS in mind. That
looks like an omission that happened due to how timers are controlled
in StreamDNS where we always stop the timer before pausing reading
anyway (see streamdns_on_complete_dnsmessage()). That would not work
well for HTTP, though, where we might want pause reading without
stopping the timer in the case we want to split incoming data into
multiple chunks to be processed independently.
I suppose that it happened due to NM refactoring in the middle of
StreamDNS development (at the time isc_nm_cancelread() and
isc_nm_pauseread() were removed), as the StreamDNS code seems to be
written as if timers are not stoping during a call to
isc_nm_read_stop().
This commit introduces manual read timer control as used by StreamDNS
and its underlying transports. Before that, DoH code would rely on the
timer control provided by TCP, which would reset the timer any time
some data arrived. Now, the timer is restarted only when a full DNS
message is processed in line with other DNS transports.
That change is required because we should not stop the timer when
reading from the network is paused due to throttling. We need a way to
drop timed-out clients, particularly those who refuse to read the data
we send.
This commit adds logic to make code better protected against clients
that send valid HTTP/2 data that is useless from a DNS server
perspective.
Firstly, it adds logic that protects against clients who send too
little useful (=DNS) data. We achieve that by adding a check that
eventually detects such clients with a nonfavorable useful to
processed data ratio after the initial grace period. The grace period
is limited to processing 128 KiB of data, which should be enough for
sending the largest possible DNS message in a GET request and then
some. This is the main safety belt that would detect even flooding
clients that initially behave well in order to fool the checks server.
Secondly, in addition to the above, we introduce additional checks to
detect outright misbehaving clients earlier:
The code will treat clients that open too many streams (50) without
sending any data for processing as flooding ones; The clients that
managed to send 1.5 KiB of data without opening a single stream or
submitting at least some DNS data will be treated as flooding ones.
Of course, the behaviour described above is nothing else but
heuristical checks, so they can never be perfect. At the same time,
they should be reasonable enough not to drop any valid clients,
realatively easy to implement, and have negligible computational
overhead.
DoH: process data chunk by chunk instead of all at once
Initially, our DNS-over-HTTP(S) implementation would try to process as
much incoming data from the network as possible. However, that might
be undesirable as we might create too many streams (each effectively
backed by a ns_client_t object). That is too forgiving as it might
overwhelm the server and trash its memory allocator, causing high CPU
and memory usage.
Instead of doing that, we resort to processing incoming data using a
chunk-by-chunk processing strategy. That is, we split data into small
chunks (currently 256 bytes) and process each of them
asynchronously. However, we can process more than one chunk at
once (up to 4 currently), given that the number of HTTP/2 streams has
not increased while processing a chunk.
That alone is not enough, though. In addition to the above, we should
limit the number of active streams: these streams for which we have
received a request and started processing it (the ones for which a
read callback was called), as it is perfectly fine to have more opened
streams than active ones. In the case we have reached or surpassed the
limit of active streams, we stop reading AND processing the data from
the remote peer. The number of active streams is effectively decreased
only when responses associated with the active streams are sent to the
remote peer.
Overall, this strategy is very similar to the one used for other
stream-based DNS transports like TCP and TLS.

[CVE-2024-11187] sec: usr: Limit the additional processing for large RDATA sets
When answering queries, don't add data to the additional section if the answer has more than 13 names in the RDATA. This limits the number of lookups into the database(s) during a single client query, reducing query processing load.

Isolate using the -T noaa flag only for part of the resolver test
Instead of running the whole resolver/ns4 server with -T noaa flag,
use it only for the part where it is actually needed. The -T noaa
could interfere with other parts of the test because the answers don't
have the authoritative-answer bit set, and we could have false
positives (or false negatives) in the test because the authoritative
server doesn't follow the DNS protocol for all the tests in the resolver
system test.

Rename the qpzone and qpcache methods that implement DB api
All the database implementations share the same names for the methods
implementing the database. That has some advantages like knowing what
to expect, but it turns out that any time such method shows up in any
kind of tracing - be it perf record, backtrace or anything else that
uses symbol names, it is very hard to distinguish whether the find()
belongs to qpcache, qpzone, builtin or sdlz implementation.
Make at least the names for qpzone and qpcache unique.

fix: usr: querying an NSEC3-signed zone for an empty record could trigger an assertion
A bug in the qpzone database could trigger a crash when querying for a deleted name, or a newly-added empty non-terminal name, in an NSEC3-signed zone. This has been fixed.

detect when closest-encloser name is too long
there was a database bug in which dns_db_find() could get a partial
match for the query name, but still set foundname to match the full
query name. this triggered an assertion when query_addwildcardproof()
assumed that foundname would be shorter.
the database bug has been fixed, but in case it happens again, we
can just copy the name instead of splitting it. we will also log a
warning that the closest-encloser name was invalid.

dns_nsec3_addnsec3() can fail when iterating back
when adding a new NSEC3 record, dns_nsec3_addnsec3() uses a
dbiterator to seek to the newly created node and then find its
predecessor. dbiterators in the qpzone use snapshots, so changes
to the database are not reflected in an already-existing iterator.
consequently, when we add a new node, we have to create a new iterator
before we can seek to it.

add a regression test for a new ENT node
this test adds a record with empty non-terminal nodes above it. this
has also been observed to trigger the crash in NSEC3 zones.
NOTE: the test currently fails, because while there is no crash, the
query results are not as expected. when we add a node below an ENT,
receive_secure_serial() gets DNS_R_PARTIALMATCH, and the signed
zone is never updated. this is not a regression from fixing the
crash bug; it's a separate inline-signing bug.

qpzone find() function could set foundname incorrectly
when a requested name is found in the QP trie during a lookup, but its
records have been marked as nonexistent by a previous deletion, then
it's treated as a partial match, but the foundname could be left
pointing to the original qname rather than the parent. this could
lead to an assertion failure in query_findclosestnsec3().

Fix default IANA root zone mirror configuration
Commit b121f02eac342ee285b6ab1292a0136448a91ee0 renamed the top-level
"primaries" block in bin/named/config.c to "remote-servers". This
configuration block lists the primary servers used for an IANA root zone
mirror when no primary servers are explicitly specified for it in the
configuration. However, the relevant part of the named_zone_configure()
function only looks for a top-level "primaries" block and not for any of
its synonyms. As a result, configuring an IANA root zone mirror with
just:
zone "." {
type mirror;
};
now results in a cryptic fatal error on startup:
loading configuration: not found
exiting (due to fatal error)
Fix by using the correct top-level block name in named_zone_configure().

Don't disable RPZ and CATZ for zones with an $INCLUDE statement
The code in zone_startload() disables RPZ and CATZ for a zone if
dns_master_loadfile() returns anything other than ISC_R_SUCCESS,
which makes sense, but it's an error because zone_startload() can
also return DNS_R_SEENINCLUDE upon success when the zone had an
$INCLUDE statement.
