_waiting =

A dict mapping tuple keys of query name/type/class to Deferreds which will be called back with the result of those queries. This is used to avoid issuing the same query more than once in parallel. This is more efficient on the network and helps avoid a "birthday paradox" attack by keeping the number of outstanding requests for a particular query fixed at one instead of allowing the attacker to raise it to an arbitrary number.

_reactor =

A provider of IReactorTCP, IReactorUDP, and IReactorTime which will be used to set up network resources and track timeouts.

def __init__(self, resolv=None, servers=None, timeout=(1, 3, 11, 45), reactor=None):

overrides twisted.names.common.ResolverBase.__init__

Construct a resolver which will query domain name servers listed in the resolv.conf(5)-format file given by resolv as well as those in the given servers list. Servers are queried in a round-robin fashion. If given, resolv is periodically checked for modification and re-parsed if it is noticed to have changed.

Parameters	servers	If not None, interpreted as a list of (host, port) pairs specifying addresses of domain name servers to attempt to use for this lookup. Host addresses should be in IPv4 dotted-quad form. If specified, overrides `resolv`. (type: `list` of `(str, int)` or `None`)
	resolv	Filename to read and parse as a resolver(5) configuration file. (type: `str`)
	timeout	Default number of seconds after which to reissue the query. When the last timeout expires, the query is considered failed. (type: Sequence of `int`)
	reactor	A provider of `IReactorTime`, `IReactorUDP`, and `IReactorTCP` which will be used to establish connections, listen for DNS datagrams, and enforce timeouts. If not provided, the global reactor will be used.
Raises	ValueError	Raised if no nameserver addresses can be found.

def __getstate__(self):

Undocumented

def __setstate__(self, state):

Undocumented

def _openFile(self, path):

Wrapper used for opening files in the class, exists primarily for unit testing purposes.

def maybeParseConfig(self):

Undocumented

def parseConfig(self, resolvConf):

Undocumented

def pickServer(self):

Return the address of a nameserver.

TODO: Weight servers for response time so faster ones can be preferred.

def _connectedProtocol(self, interface=''):

Return a new DNSDatagramProtocol bound to a randomly selected port number.

def connectionMade(self, protocol):

Called by associated dns.DNSProtocol instances when they connect.

def connectionLost(self, protocol):

Called by associated dns.DNSProtocol instances when they disconnect.

def messageReceived(self, message, protocol, address=None):

Undocumented

def _query(self, *args):

Get a new DNSDatagramProtocol instance from _connectedProtocol, issue a query to it using *args, and arrange for it to be disconnected from its transport after the query completes.

Parameters	*args	Positional arguments to be passed to `DNSDatagramProtocol.query`.
Returns	A `Deferred` which will be called back with the result of the query.

def queryUDP(self, queries, timeout=None):

Make a number of DNS queries via UDP.

Parameters	queries	The queries to make. (type: A `list` of `dns.Query` instances)
	timeout	Number of seconds after which to reissue the query. When the last timeout expires, the query is considered failed. (type: Sequence of `int`)
Returns	(type: `Deferred` @raise `twisted.internet.defer.TimeoutError`: When the query times out.)

def _reissue(self, reason, addressesLeft, addressesUsed, query, timeout):

Undocumented

def queryTCP(self, queries, timeout=10):

Make a number of DNS queries via TCP.

Parameters	queries	The queries to make. (type: Any non-zero number of `dns.Query` instances)
	timeout	The number of seconds after which to fail. (type: `int`)
Returns	(type: `Deferred`)

def filterAnswers(self, message):

Extract results from the given message.

If the message was truncated, re-attempt the query over TCP and return a Deferred which will fire with the results of that query.

If the message's result code is not twisted.names.dns.OK, return a Failure indicating the type of error which occurred.

Otherwise, return a three-tuple of lists containing the results from the answers section, the authority section, and the additional section.

def _lookup(self, name, cls, type, timeout):

overrides twisted.names.common.ResolverBase._lookup

Build a dns.Query for the given parameters and dispatch it via UDP.

If this query is already outstanding, it will not be re-issued. Instead, when the outstanding query receives a response, that response will be re-used for this query as well.

Returns A Deferred which fires with a three-tuple giving the answer, authority, and additional sections of the response or with a Failure if the response code is anything other than dns.OK.

def lookupZone(self, name, timeout=10):

from twisted.internet.interfaces.IResolver

overrides twisted.names.common.ResolverBase.lookupZone

Perform an AXFR record lookup.

NB This is quite different from other DNS requests. See http://cr.yp.to/djbdns/axfr-notes.html for more information.

NB Unlike other lookup* methods, the timeout here is not a list of ints, it is a single int.

Parameters	name	DNS name to resolve. (type: `bytes` or `str`)
	timeout	When this timeout expires, the query is considered failed. (type: `int`)
Returns	A `Deferred` which fires with a three-tuple of lists of `twisted.names.dns.RRHeader` instances. The first element of the tuple gives answers. The second and third elements are always empty. The `Deferred` may instead fail with one of the exceptions defined in `twisted.names.error` or with `NotImplementedError`. (type: `Deferred`)

def _timeoutZone(self, d, controller, connector, seconds):

Undocumented

def _cbLookupZone(self, result, connector):

Undocumented
