<span><strong class="command">dig +ednsopt</strong></span> can now be used to set
arbitrary EDNS options in DNS requests.

<span><strong class="command">dig +ednsflags</strong></span> can now be used to set
yet-to-be-defined EDNS flags in DNS requests.

<li><p>
<span><strong class="command">dig +[no]ednsnegotiation</strong></span> can now be used enable /
disable EDNS version negotiation.
</p></li>
<li><p>
An <span><strong class="command">--enable-querytrace</strong></span> configure switch is
now available to enable very verbose query tracelogging. This
option can only be set at compile time. This option has a
negative performance impact and should be used only for
debugging.

Large inline-signing changes should be less disruptive.
Signature generation is now done incrementally; the number
of signatures to be generated in each quantum is controlled
by "sig-signing-signatures <em class="replaceable"><code>number</code></em>;".
[RT #37927]
</p></li>
<li><p>
When retrying a query via TCP due to the first answer being
truncated, <span><strong class="command">dig</strong></span> will now correctly send
the SIT (server identity token) value returned by the server
in the prior response. [RT #39047]
</p></li>
<li><p>
Retrieving the local port range from net.ipv4.ip_local_port_range
on Linux is now supported.

<a name="relnotes_bugs"></a>Bug Fixes</h3></div></div></div>
<div class="itemizedlist"><ul type="disc">
<li><p>
Asynchronous zone loads were not handled correctly when the
zone load was already in progress; this could trigger a crash
in zt.c. [RT #37573]
</p></li>
<li><p>
A race during shutdown or reconfiguration could
cause an assertion failure in mem.c. [RT #38979]
</p></li>
<li><p>
Some answer formatting options didn't work correctly with
<span><strong class="command">dig +short</strong></span>. [RT #39291]
</p></li>
<li>
<p>
Several bugs have been fixed in the RPZ implementation:
</p>
<div class="itemizedlist"><ul type="circle">
<li><p>
Policy zones that did not specifically require recursion
could be treated as if they did; consequently, setting
<span><strong class="command">qname-wait-recurse no;</strong></span> was
sometimes ineffective. This has been corrected.
In most configurations, behavioral changes due to this
fix will not be noticeable. [RT #39229]
</p></li>
<li><p>
The server could crash if policy zones were updated (e.g.
via <span><strong class="command">rndc reload</strong></span> or an incoming zone
transfer) while RPZ processing was still ongoing for an
active query. [RT #39415]
</p></li>
<li><p>
On servers with one or more policy zones configured as
slaves, if a policy zone updated during regular operation
(rather than at startup) using a full zone reload, such as
via AXFR, a bug could allow the RPZ summary data to fall out
of sync, potentially leading to an assertion failure in
rpz.c when further incremental updates were made to the
zone, such as via IXFR. [RT #39567]
</p></li>
<li><p>
The server could match a shorter prefix than what was
available in CLIENT-IP policy triggers, and so, an
unexpected action could be taken. This has been
corrected. [RT #39481]
</p></li>
<li><p>
The server could crash if a reload of an RPZ zone was
initiated while another reload of the same zone was
already in progress. [RT #39649]
