Functional enhancements from prior major releases of BIND 9
BIND 9.10.0
* Detect duplicates of UDP queries we are recursing on and drop them.
New stats category "duplicates".
* "USE INTERNAL MALLOC" is now runtime selectable.
- * The lame cache is now done on a basis as some servers only appear to
- be lame for certain query types.
+ * The lame cache is now done on a <qname,qclass,qtype> basis as some
+ servers only appear to be lame for certain query types.
* Limit the number of recursive clients that can be waiting for a single
- query () to resolve. New options clients-per-query and
- max-clients-per-query.
+ query (<qname,qtype,qclass>) to resolve. New options clients-per-query
+ and max-clients-per-query.
* dig: report the number of extra bytes still left in the packet after
processing all the records.
* Support for IPSECKEY rdata type.
+OPTIONS
+
Setting the STD_CDEFINES environment variable before running configure can
be used to enable certain compile-time options that are not explicitly
defined in configure.
Some of these settings are:
-Setting Description
+ Setting Description
Don't ovewrite memory when allocating or freeing
-DISC_MEM_FILL=0 it; this improves performance but makes
