The methods operate and inform_super both have a parameter named qdata which is described as "per query data, here you can store your own data".

However, the python module implementation passes qdata=None as argument value. There's no way for the python code to assign something else to the per-query data store or modify None.

Please consider initializing the per-query data store as dict (this pull request). This would allow the python module script to add custom items.

The proposed patch also changes the initialization of the mod_env global variable from None to a dict instance. Certainly, mod_env could be omitted completely: If needed, a global variable could be created from the python module's code as well. I see no need for storing the data in the python module's internal C data structures.

I've been successfully using this patch with unbound-1.6.0, 1.6.1, 1.6.4 and 1.7.0.

If you are willing to accept all of the pull requests #4, #5, #6, you could also consider merging dev/all-merged/master instead: All three patches have been merged into this single branch.

The python module used to assign None to the per-query (qdata argument)
and per-module (mod_env variable) data stores. Hence, there was no
obvious way for python code to use these data stores.

This commit initializes both data stores with a dict instance.

  Nicer spelling and layout.
  - For NLnetLabs#45, check that 127.0.0.1 and ::1 are not used in unbound.conf   when do-not-query-localhost is turned on, or at default on,   unbound-checkconf prints a warning if it is found in forward-addr or   stub-addr statements.
