1441. [func] It is now possible to tell dig to bind to a specific
source port.
1440. [func] It is now possible to tell named to avoid using
certian source ports (avoid-v4-udp-ports,
avoid-v6-udp-ports).
Check return values or cast them to (void), as required by the coding
standards; add exceptions to the coding standards for cases where this is
not desirable
the port, timeout, and retry options were
valid integers and in range. [RT #2099]
1150. [bug] named incorrectly accepted TTL values
containing plus or minus signs, such as
1d+1h-1s.
1149. [func] New function isc_parse_uint32().
@Add bind9_getaddresses(), a consistent version of the get_address function
from dig/host/nslookup, nsupdate, and rndc. This should make it
easier to have the various programs support multiple addresses for a hostname.
of allowing arbitrary labels, not just dotted
decimal quads, with the -x option. This can be
used to conveniently look up RFC2317 names as in
"dig -x 10.0.0.0-127". [RT #827, #1576, #1598]
[RT #6229]
1483. [bug] dig axfr failed if the message id in the answer failed
to match that in the request. Only the id in the first
message is required to match. [RT #8138]
Removed all code within #ifdef DNS_OPT_NEWCODES*.
It was the last thing being sanitized out of releases; removing
it makes it possible to eliminate the sanitation process.
In several places, dighost.c called cancel_lookup() and then called
requeue_lookup() on the canceled lookup. Because cancel_lookup()
resets the retry count of the lookup to zero, the requeued lookups
would not be retried at all (for example, in the case of UDP NS
queries executed when doing "dig +search") or, in the case of TCP
queries, retried indefinitely since the unsigned retry count of zero
was subsequently decremented, causing it to wrap around to the largest
unsigned integer value.
