After that, the +driver detects whether the modified RR was of type A or AAAA, and if so, +attempts to appropriately generate or delete a matching PTR record in +one of the two zones managed by the driver. + +E.g.: + +$ nsupdate +> update add a.test. 300 IN A 192.0.2.1 +> send + +will add the A record +a.test. 300 IN A 192.0.2.1 + +and also automatically generate the PTR record +1.2.0.192.in-addr.arpa. 300 IN PTR a.test. + +AXFR and RR deletion via dynamic updates should work as usual. Deletion +of a type A or AAAA record should delete the corresponding PTR record +too. + +The zone is stored only in memory, and all changes will be lost on +reload/reconfig. + +Hints for code readers: +- Driver initialization starts in driver.c: dyndb_init() function. +- New database implementation is registered by calling dns_db_register() + and passing a function pointer to it. This sample uses the function + create_db() to initialize the database. +- Zones are created later in instance.c: load_sample_instance_zones(). +- Database entry points are in structure db.c: dns_dbmethods_t + sampledb_methods +- sampledb_methods points to an implementation of the database interface. + See the db.c: addrdataset() implementation and look at how the RBT + database instance is wrapped into an additional layer of logic. -- cgit v1.2.3
