4873. [doc] Grammars for named.conf included in the ARM are now
automatically generated by the configuration parser
itself. As a side effect of the work needed to
separate zone type grammars from each other, this
also makes checking of zone statements in
named-checkconf more correct and consistent.
[RT #36957]
Stage 2 - synthesis of records from wildcard data.
If the dns64 or filter-aaaa* is configured then the
involved lookups are currently excluded. [RT #40138]
4726. [port] Prevent setsockopt() errors related to TCP_FASTOPEN
from being logged on FreeBSD if the kernel does not
support it. Notify the user when the kernel does
support TCP_FASTOPEN, but it is disabled by sysctl.
Add a new configure option, --disable-tcp-fastopen, to
disable use of TCP_FASTOPEN altogether. [RT #44754]
4708. [cleanup] Legacy Windows builds (i.e. for XP and earlier)
are no longer supported. [RT #45186]
4707. [func] The lightweight resolver daemon and library (lwresd
and liblwres) have been removed. [RT #45186]
4706. [func] Code implementing name server query processing has
been moved from bin/named to a new library "libns".
Functions remaining in bin/named are now prefixed
with "named_" rather than "ns_". This will make it
easier to write unit tests for name server code, or
link name server functionality into new tools.
[RT #45186]
allows named to provide stale cached answers when
the authoritative server is under attack.
See max-stale-ttl, stale-answer-enable,
stale-answer-ttl. [RT #44790]
4664. [func] Add a "glue-cache" option to enable or disable the
glue cache. The default is "no" to reduce memory
usage, but enabling this option will improve
performance in delegation-heavy zones. [RT #45125]
4579. [func] Logging channels and dnstap output files can now
be configured with a "suffix" option, set to
either "increment" or "timestamp", indicating
whether to use incrementing numbers or timestamps
as the file suffix when rolling over a log file.
[RT #42838]
4549. [func] Added support for the EDNS TCP Keepalive option
(RFC 7828). [RT #42126]
4548. [func] Added support for the EDNS Padding option (RFC 7830).
[RT #42094]
