Notes for BIND 9.17.3
---------------------
New Features
~~~~~~~~~~~~
- New ``rndc`` command ``rndc dnssec -status`` shows the current DNSSEC
policy and keys in use, the key states, and rollover status.
[GL #1612]
Feature Changes
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- New ``rndc`` command ``rndc dnssec -status`` that shows the current
DNSSEC policy and keys in use, the key states and rollover status.
[GL #1612]
- Disable and disallow static linking of BIND 9 binaries and libraries
as BIND 9 modules require ``dlopen()`` support and static linking also
prevents using security features like read-only relocations (RELRO) or

- As part of an ongoing effort to use RFC 8499 terminology, ``primaries``
can now be used as a synonym for ``masters`` in ``named.conf``.
Similarly, ``notify priamry-only`` can now be used as a synonym
for ``notify master-only``. The output of ``rndc zonestatus`` now
uses ``primary`` and ``secondary`` terminology. [GL #1948]

Bug Fixes
~~~~~~~~~
- The DS set returned by ``dns_keynode_dsset()`` was not thread-safe.
This could result in an INSIST being triggered. [GL #1926]
- The DS RRset returned by ``dns_keynode_dsset()`` was used in a
non-thread-safe manner. This could result in an INSIST being
triggered. [GL #1926]
- The ``primary`` and ``secondary`` keywords, when used as parameters for
``check-names``, were not processed correctly and were being ignored.

- 'rndc dnstap -roll <value>' was not limiting the number of saved
files to <value>. [GL !3728]
- ``rndc dnstap -roll <value>`` did not limit the number of saved files
to ``<value>``. [GL !3728]
- The validator could fail to accept a properly signed RRset if an
unsupported algorithm appeared earlier in the DNSKEY RRset than a
supported algorithm. It could also stop if it detected a malformed
supported algorithm. It could also stop if it detected a malformed
public key. [GL #1689]
- The ``blackhole`` ACL was inadvertently disabled with respect to
client queries. Blocked IP addresses were not used for upstream
queries but queries from those addresses could still be answered.

the same time as shutting down. [GL #1747]
- ``named`` crashed on shutdown when a new ``rndc`` connection was
received during shutdown. This has been fixed. [GL #1747]

loaded. [GL #1862]
