Previously occluded names now become properly visible. Previously lead to a crash when the server was asked for the previously occluded name. * Fixed handling of zero-length strings in text zone dump. Caused the compilation to fail. * Fixed TSIG algorithm name comparison - the names should be in canonical form. * Fixed handling unknown RR types with type less than 251. Features: * Improved compression of packets. Out-of-zone dnames present in RDATA were not compressed. * Slave zones are now automatically refreshed after startup. * Proper response to IXFR/UDP query (returns SOA in Authority section). v1.1.0 - Aug 31, 2012 --------------------- Bugfixes: * Syncing journal to zone was not updating the compiled zone database. Other improvements: * Better checks of corrupted zone database. v1.1.0-rc2 - Aug 23, 2012 ------------------------- New features: * Signing SOA with TSIG queries when checking zone version with master.

Bugfixes: * Crash when zone contained RRSIG signing a CNAME, but did not contain the CNAME. * Malformed packets parsing. * Failed IXFR caused memory leaks. * Failed IXFR might have resulted in inconsistent zone structures. * Fixed answering to +dnssec queries when NSEC3 chain is corrupted. * Fixed answering when transitioning from NSEC3 to NSEC. * Fixed answering when zone contains multiple NSEC3 chains. * Handling RRSets with different TTLs - TTL from the first RR is used. * Synchronization of zone reload and zone transfers. * Fixed build on NetBSD 5 and FreeBSD. * Fixed binding to both IPv4 and IPv6 at the same time on special interfaces. * Fixed access rights of created files. * Semantic checks corrupted RDATA domain names which are covered by wildcard in the same zone. Other improvements: * IXFR-in optimized. * Many zones loading optimized. * More detailed log messages (mostly transfer-related). * Copying Question section to error responses. * Using zone name from config file as default origin in zone file. * Additional records are now added to response also from wildcard-covered names. v1.0.6 - Jun 13, 2012 --------------------- Bugfixes * Fixed potential problems with RCU synchronization. * Adding NSEC/NSEC3 for all wildcard CNAMEs in the response. v1.0.5 - May 17, 2012 --------------------- Bugfixes: * Fixed bug with creating journal files. v1.0.4 - May 16, 2012 --------------------- New features: * Parallel loading of zones to the server. * RFC3339-complaint format of log time. * Support for TLSA (RR type 52). * knotc checkzone (as a dry-run of zone compile). * knotc refresh for forcing Knot to update all zones from master servers. * Reopening log files upon start (used to truncate them). Bugfixes: * Copying OPCODE and RD bit from query to NOTIMPL responses. * Corrected response to CNAME queries if the canonical name was also an alias (was adding the whole CNAME chain to the response). * Fixed crash when NS or MX points to an alias. * Fixed problem with early closing of filedescriptors (lead to crash when compiling and loading or bootstrapping and restarting the server with a lot of zones). Other improvements: * Significantly sped up IXFR-in and reduced its memory requirements. v1.0.3 - Apr 17, 2012 --------------------- Bugfixes: * Corrected handling of EDNS0 when TCP is used (was applying the UDP size limit). * Fixed slow compilation of zones. * Fixed potential crash with many concurrent transfers. * Fixed missing include for FreeBSD. v1.0.2 - Apr 13, 2012 --------------------- New features: * Configuration checker (invoked via knotc). * Specifying source interface for transfers and NOTIFY requests directly. Bugfixes: * Fixed leak when querying non-existing name and zone SOA TTL > minimal. * Fixed some minor bugs in tansfers. Other improvements: * Improved log messages (added date and time, better specification of XFR remote). * Improved saving incoming IXFR to journal (memory optimized). * Now using system scheduler (better for Linux). * Decreased thread stack size. v1.0.1 - Mar 9, 2012 -------------------- New features: * Implemented jitter to REFRESH/RETRY timers. * Implemented magic bytes for journal. * Improved error messages.

Bugfixes: * Knot was not accepting AXFR-style IXFR with first SOA in a separate packet (i.e. from Power DNS). * Wrong SOA TTL in negative answers. * Wrong max packet size for outgoing transfers (was causing the packets to be malformed). * Wrong handling of WKS record in zone compiler. * Problems with zone bootstrapping. v0.8.1 - Dec 1, 2011 -------------------- Bugfixes: * Handling SPF record. * Wrong text dump of unknown records. v0.8.0 - Beta Release - Nov 3, 2011 ----------------------------------- Features: * AXFR-in/-out * IXFR-in/-out * EDNS0 * DNSSEC * NSEC3 * IPv6 * Runtime reconfiguration Known issues: * Missing support for TSIG * Root zone support * NSID support * Other DNS classes than IN * RRSet rotation not implmented * Dynamic update support * IXFR code might be flaky sometimes * IXFR may be slow when too much (10 000+) RRSets are transfered at once Platforms (tested on): * Linux (2.6.x and newer), FreeBSD 8.2, Mac OS X 10.6, 10.7
