Dear Knot Resolver users, Knot Resolver 5.2.0 has been released! One of the notable features is a new DNS-over-HTTTPS implementation which is more scalable and stable than the old one. It also has less dependencies and simpler configuration. Another new feature is experimental eXpress Data Path (XDP) support for UDP. With support from both the network card and the kernel, it can provide superior performance and lower latency for UDP answers. Some of the improvements and bugfixes required a few backward incompatible changes, mainly regarding control sockets or module API. Please refer to our upgrading guide for details: https://knot-resolver.readthedocs.io/en/v5.2.0/upgrading.html#to-5-2 Improvements ------------ - doh2: add native C module for DNS-over-HTTPS (#600, !997) - xdp: add server-side XDP support for higher UDP performance (#533, !1083) - lower default EDNS buffer size to 1232 bytes (#538, #300, !920); see https://dnsflagday.net/2020/ - net: split the EDNS buffer size into upstream and downstream (!1026) - lua-http doh: answer to /dns-query endpoint as well as /doh (!1069) - improve resiliency against UDP fragmentation attacks (disable PMTUD) (!1061) - ta_update: warn if there are differences between statically configured keys and upstream (#251, !1051) - human readable output in interactive mode was improved (!1020) - doc: generate info page (!1079) - packaging: improve sysusers and tmpfiles support (!1080) Bugfixes -------- - avoid an assert() error in stash_rrset() (!1072) - fix emergency cache locking bug introduced in 5.1.3 (!1078) - migrate map() command to control sockets; fix systemd integration (!1000) - fix crash when sending back errors over control socket (!1000) - fix SERVFAIL while processing forwarded CNAME to a sibling zone (#614, !1070) Incompatible changes -------------------- - see upgrading guide: https://knot-resolver.readthedocs.io/en/v5.2.0/upgrading.html#to-5-2 - minor changes in module API - control socket API commands have to be terminated by "\n" - graphite: default prefix now contains instance identifier (!1000) - build: meson >= 0.49 is required (!1082) - planned changes in future versions: https://knot-resolver.readthedocs.io/en/v5.2.0/upgrading.html#upcoming-chan… Full changelog: https://gitlab.nic.cz/knot/knot-resolver/raw/v5.2.0/NEWS Sources: https://secure.nic.cz/files/knot-resolver/knot-resolver-5.2.0.tar.xz GPG signature: https://secure.nic.cz/files/knot-resolver/knot-resolver-5.2.0.tar.xz.asc Documentation: https://knot-resolver.readthedocs.io/en/v5.2.0/ -- Tomas Krizek PGP: 4A8B A48C 2AED 933B D495 C509 A1FB A5F7 EF8C 4869
