Intertwining release notes from different BIND releases in a single XML file has caused confusion in the past due to different (and often arbitrary) approaches to keeping/removing release notes from older releases on different BIND branches. Divide doc/arm/notes.xml into per-version sections to simplify determining the set of changes introduced by a given release and to make adding/reviewing release notes less error-prone.

Threads in <command>named</command> are now set to human-readable

names to assist debugging on operating systems that support that.

Threads will have names such as "isc-timer", "isc-sockmgr",

"isc-worker0001", and so on. This will affect the reporting of

subsidiary thread names in <command>ps</command> and

Fixed a bug that was introduced in an earlier development
|
|
release which caused multi-packet AXFR and IXFR messages to fail
|
|
validation if not all packets contained TSIG records; this
|
|
caused interoperability problems with some other DNS

implementations. [RT #45509]

Reloading or reconfiguring <command>named</command> could

|
|
Due to some incorrectly deleted code, when BIND was
|
|
built with LMDB, zones that were deleted via
|
|
<command>rndc delzone</command> were removed from the
|
|
running server but were not removed from the new zone
|
|
database, so that deletion did not persist after a
|
|
server restart. This has been corrected. [RT #45185]
