Notes for BIND 9.19.11
----------------------
New Features
~~~~~~~~~~~~
- When using :any:`dnssec-policy`, it is now possible to configure the
digest type to use when ``CDS`` records need to be published with
:any:`cds-digest-types`. Also, publication of specific CDNSKEY/CDS
records can now be set with :option:`dnssec-signzone -G`. :gl:`#3837`
Removed Features
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- Support for Red Hat Enterprise Linux version 7 (and clones) has been
dropped. A C11-compliant compiler is now required to compile BIND 9.
:gl:`#3729`
- The functions that were in the ``libbind9`` shared library have been
moved to the ``libisc`` and ``libisccfg`` libraries. The now-empty
``libbind9`` has been removed and is no longer installed. :gl:`#3903`
- The ``irs_resconf`` module has been moved to the ``libdns`` shared
library. The now-empty ``libirs`` library has been removed and is no
longer installed. :gl:`#3904`
Feature Changes
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- Catalog zone updates are now run on specialized "offload" threads to
reduce the amount of time they block query processing on the main
networking threads. This increases the responsiveness of
:iscman:`named` when catalog zone updates are being applied after a
catalog zone has been successfully transferred. :gl:`#3881`
- libuv support for receiving multiple UDP messages in a single
``recvmmsg()`` system call has been tweaked several times between
libuv versions 1.35.0 and 1.40.0; the current recommended libuv
version is 1.40.0 or higher. New rules are now in effect for running
with a different version of libuv than the one used at compilation
time. These rules may trigger a fatal error at startup:
- Building against or running with libuv versions 1.35.0 and 1.36.0 is
now a fatal error.
- Running with libuv version higher than 1.34.2 is now a fatal error
when :iscman:`named` is built against libuv version 1.34.2 or lower.
- Running with libuv version higher than 1.39.0 is now a fatal error
when :iscman:`named` is built against libuv version 1.37.0, 1.38.0,
1.38.1, or 1.39.0.
This prevents the use of libuv versions that may trigger an assertion
failure when receiving multiple UDP messages in a single system call.
:gl:`#3840`
Bug Fixes
~~~~~~~~~
- :iscman:`named` could crash with an assertion failure when adding a
new zone into the configuration file for a name which was already
configured as a member zone for a catalog zone. This has been fixed.
:gl:`#3911`
- When :iscman:`named` starts up, it sends a query for the DNSSEC key
for each configured trust anchor to determine whether the key has
changed. In some unusual cases, the query might depend on a zone for
which the server is itself authoritative, and would have failed if it
were sent before the zone was fully loaded. This has now been fixed by
delaying the key queries until all zones have finished loading.
:gl:`#3673`
Known Issues
~~~~~~~~~~~~
- There are no new known issues with this release. See :ref:`above
<relnotes_known_issues>` for a list of all known issues affecting this
BIND 9 branch.
