Hi everyone,
While I was working on my Knot-Resolver (kr) module, I wondered how I
could be able to ratelimit the trafic toward specific nameservers or
influence the NS selection algorithm, in general.
Unfortunately, the current NS election algorithm that is present in the
lib/resolve.c driver and in lib/nsrep.c does not allow a module to
register a layer to influence the NS selection.
Is there any plan to add event listeners to influence NS selection, for
instance by giving layers the opportunity to "congregate" and return a
modifier, a lot like the "favour" IPv6 modifier/variable that is done in
lib/nsrep.c:eval_addr_set?
Thanks.
Cheers,
Florian
