MariaDB+Galera was terribly unstable, with the cluster failing to
start or dying randomly, and generally seemed incredibly unsuitable
for an HA solution. This commit switches the DNS aggregator SQL
backend to PostgreSQL, implemented via Patroni HA.
It also manages the Patroni state, forcing the primary instance to
follow the PVC coordinator, such that the active DNS Aggregator
instance is always able to communicate read+write with the local
system.
This required some logic changes to how the DNS Aggregator worked,
specifically ensuring that database changes aren't attempted while
the instance isn't actively running - to be honest this was a bug
anyways that had just never been noticed.
Closes#34
Trying to directly AXFR from dnsmasq is a mess, since their zone is
barely compliant with spec, it doesn't support notifies, and it is
generally really messy.
This implements an advanced "AXFR parser" system, which looks at the
results of an AXFR from the local dnsmasq instances per-network, and
updates the real replicated MariaDB pdns backend cluster with the
changed data. This allows a sensible, transferable zone with its own
SOA that is dynamically reconfigured as hosts come and go from the
dnsmasq zone.
