Notes for BIND 9.16.8
New Features

    Add a new rndc command, rndc dnssec -rollover, which triggers a manual rollover for a specific key. [GL #1749]

    Add a new rndc command, rndc dumpdb -expired, which dumps the cache database, including expired RRsets that are awaiting cleanup, to the dump-file for diagnostic purposes. [GL #1870]

Feature Changes

    DNS Flag Day 2020: The default EDNS buffer size has been changed from 4096 to 1232 bytes. According to measurements done by multiple parties, this should not cause any operational problems as most of the Internet “core” is able to cope with IP message sizes between 1400-1500 bytes; the 1232 size was picked as a conservative minimal number that could be changed by the DNS operator to an estimated path MTU minus the estimated header space. In practice, the smallest MTU witnessed in the operational DNS community is 1500 octets, the maximum Ethernet payload size, so a useful default for maximum DNS/UDP payload size on reliable networks would be 1400 bytes. [GL #2183]

Bug Fixes

    named reported an invalid memory size when running in an environment that did not properly report the number of available memory pages and/or the size of each memory page. [GL #2166]

    With multiple forwarders configured, named could fail the REQUIRE(msg->state == (-1)) assertion in lib/dns/message.c, causing it to crash. This has been fixed. [GL #2124]

    named erroneously performed continuous key rollovers for KASP policies that used algorithm Ed25519 or Ed448 due to a mismatch between created key size and expected key size. [GL #2171]

    Updating contents of an RPZ zone which contained names spelled using varying letter case could cause some processing rules in that RPZ zone to be erroneously ignored. [GL #2169]
