Description Vít Ondruch 2021-04-16 12:40:14 UTC
Description of problem:

Resolv::DNS does not return any results under those conditions:

    there are at least two name servers (in /etc/resolv.conf).
    The name servers have IPv6 addresses containing leading zeros.

Example resolv.conf:
nameserver 2001:0db8::0001:1
nameserver 2001:0db8::0002:1

This is caused by a mismatch in representation of the address: Requester::sender_for compares the address of the answering server (e.g. 2001:0db8::1:1) with the address the request was sent to (e.g. 2001:0db8::0001:1).

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

ruby-libs-2.5.5-105.module+el8.1.0+3656+f80bfa1d.x86_64

How reproducible:

We reproduced this by running puppet_facts on OSP 16.1

Steps to Reproduce:


You can see the difference in timing when the ipa facts are pre-populated (the DNS lookup is skipped) or not:

[root@]# time FACTER_ipa_domain='' FACTER_ipa_server='' puppet facts >/dev/null

real    0m2.367s
user    0m1.746s
sys     0m0.392s

[root@]# time puppet facts >/dev/null

real    1m22.435s
user    0m1.735s
sys     0m0.428s
