Notes for BIND 9.19.18
----------------------
Security Fixes
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- None.
New Features
~~~~~~~~~~~~
- The statstics channel now includes information about incoming zone transfers
currently in progress. :gl:`#3883`
- The new :any:`resolver-use-dns64` option enables ``named`` to apply
:any:`dns64` rules to IPv4 server addresses when sending recursive
queries, so that resolution can be performed over a NAT64 connection.
:gl:`#608`
- Processing large incremental transfers (IXFR) can take a long time.
Offload the processing to a separate work thread that doesn't block
networking threads and keeps them free to process regular traffic.
:gl:`#4367`
Removed Features
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- Configuring control channel to use Unix Domain Socket has an fatal error since
BIND 9.18. Completely remove the feature and make ``named-checkconf`` also
report this as an error in the configuration. :gl:`#4311`
The support for control channel over Unix Domain Sockets has been
non-functional since BIND 9.18
- Support for specifying ``lock-file`` via configuration and via the
:option:`named -X` command line option has been removed. An external process
supervisor should be used instead. :gl:`#4391`
Alternatively :program:`flock` can be used to achieve the same effect as the
removed configuration/argument:
flock -n -x <dir>/named.lock <path>/named <args>
Feature Changes
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- The zone option :any:`inline-signing` is now ignored if there is no
:any:`dnssec-policy` configured for the zone. This means that unsigned
zones will no longer create redundant signed versions of the zone.
:gl:`#4349`
- B.ROOT-SERVERS.NET addresses are now 170.247.170.2 and 2801:1b8:10::b.
:gl:`#4101`
- QNAME minimization is now used when looking up the addresses of name
servers during the recursion process. :gl:`#4209`
Bug Fixes
~~~~~~~~~
- :any:`max-cache-size` accidentally became ineffective in BIND 9.19.16.
This has been fixed and the option now behaves as documented again.
:gl:`#4340`
- For inline-signing zones, if the unsigned version of the zone contains
DNSSEC records, it was scheduled to be resigning. This unwanted behavior
has been fixed. :gl:`#4350`
- Looking up stale data from the cache did not take into account local
authoritative zones. This has been fixed. :gl:`#4355`
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.
