Detailed Description

Implements client-side DNS proxy server code.

When a user enables the DNSPort configuration option to have their local Tor client handle DNS requests, this module handles it. It functions as a "DNS Server" on the client side, which client applications use.

Inbound DNS requests are represented as entry_connection_t here (since that's how Tor represents client-side streams), which are kept associated with an evdns_server_request structure as exposed by Libevent's evdns code.

Upon receiving a DNS request, libevent calls our evdns_server_callback() function here, which causes this module to create an entry_connection_t request as appropriate. Later, when that request is answered, connection_edge.c calls dnsserv_resolved() so we can finish up and tell the DNS client.

Function Documentation

◆ dnsserv_close_listener()

void dnsserv_close_listener ( connection_t conn)

Free the evdns server port for conn, which must be an AP_DNS_LISTENER.

Definition at line 410 of file dnsserv.c.

◆ dnsserv_configure_listener()

void dnsserv_configure_listener ( connection_t conn)

Set up the evdns server port for the UDP socket on conn, which must be an AP_DNS_LISTENER

Definition at line 394 of file dnsserv.c.

◆ dnsserv_launch_request()

int dnsserv_launch_request ( const char *  name,
int  reverse,
control_connection_t control_conn 
)

Helper function: called whenever the client sends a resolve request to our controller. We need to eventually answer the request req. Returns 0 if the controller will be getting (or has gotten) an event in response; -1 if we couldn't launch the request.

Definition at line 213 of file dnsserv.c.

◆ dnsserv_reject_request()

void dnsserv_reject_request ( entry_connection_t conn)

If there is a pending request on conn that's waiting for an answer, send back an error and free the request.

Definition at line 292 of file dnsserv.c.

◆ dnsserv_resolved()

void dnsserv_resolved ( entry_connection_t conn,
int  answer_type,
size_t  answer_len,
const char *  answer,
int  ttl 
)

Tell the dns request waiting for an answer on conn that we have an answer of type answer_type (RESOLVE_TYPE_IPV4/IPV6/ERR), of length answer_len, in answer, with TTL ttl. Doesn't do any caching; that's handled elsewhere.

Definition at line 342 of file dnsserv.c.

◆ evdns_get_orig_address()

static const char * evdns_get_orig_address ( const struct evdns_server_request *  req,
int  rtype,
const char *  addr 
)
static

Look up the original name that corresponds to 'addr' in req. We use this to preserve case in order to facilitate clients using 0x20-hacks to avoid DNS poisoning.

Definition at line 305 of file dnsserv.c.

◆ evdns_server_callback()

static void evdns_server_callback ( struct evdns_server_request *  req,
void *  data_ 
)
static

Helper function: called by evdns whenever the client sends a request to our DNSPort. We need to eventually answer the request req.
