Seems the problem is solved by allowing a DNS over TCP for clients.
While inability to forward larger EDNS querries ove UDS in 2.90 is
certainly a change, I understand that dnsmasq is now following the DNS
flag day suggestion instead RFC.
I'd like to still point out, that the --edns-packet-max option does not
workaround the problem for me as dnsmasq "shrinks" the value to the 1232
even this is set larger.

I tried to increase the --edns-packet-max=1450, did not work, set it to 2048
now resolution seems to work. Interestingly only temporarily, because this
appears in the dnsmasq log soon
reducing DNS packet size for nameserver 10.101.255.253 to 1232
and the resolution is not working again.
So it seems this is related to that change in dnsmasq and Windows name
resolution as with Linux clients there is no problem, but even using this
option does not fix the problem as for some reason dnsmasq decides to
override the override..
Still it is not obvious to me, what edns packet size was used in dnsmasq
before 2.90 version.

In this case the query is from Windows 10 machine->dnsmasq server on Fedora

The result on Windows nslookup
Server: UnKnown
Address: 192.168.34.1
*** UnKnown can't find login.microsoftonline.com: Unspecified error
In dnsmasq there is this "reply is truncated" for this forwarded query.
I do not think the problem is the Windows client, because from the time I
downgraded the dnsmasq on Fedora to 2.89, I did not get any "reply is
truncated" dnsmasq log message anymore.
I can not judge if client should do anything else in this case thou..

The response seems correct and acceptable in size. It should not truncate,
at least what I see. It should also retry with TCP when truncated reply
arrives. I have verified even last release works with dig. Dnsmasq does
not do tcp query by itself, it expects client to do TCP query. What client
do you use?

I have tried dig +ignore +noedns -t txt on google.com or cisco.com. If
client does not retry, it gets no response. If it does, it does. It seems
to work as intended.
If might help querying your bind server by dig @10.101.255.253 txt ch
version.bind. But I suspect the problem is in client incorrectly omitting
TCP query retry. Is it glibc program? Can you tell us more about client
program making those queries?
Cheers,

After upgrade of dnsmasq 2.89 to dnsmasq-2.90-1.fc38.x86_64 I started to
notice, that some queries won't resolve when asked thru dnsmasq, but work
asked directly to upstream nameserver.
I found that certain queries forwarded to anycast bind nameservers return
only a "reply is truncated" message and no record.
Mar 11 07:30:05 server dnsmasq[4054056]: query[A]
login.microsoftonline.com from 192.168.34.194
Mar 11 07:30:05 server dnsmasq[4054056]: forwarded
login.microsoftonline.com to 10.101.255.253
Mar 11 07:30:05 server dnsmasq[4054056]: reply is truncated
Downgrading to dnsmasq-2.89-1.fc38.x86_64 seems to solve the problem.
The response for login.microsoftonline.com is a long one.
In the dnsmasq changelog I found, there were some changes with edns max
size, but I can not find the commit to find out what was there before, to
set the --edns-packet-max.
The general question would be - what is the correct DNS setup then? I
probably need to change the bind config, as I do not want to fix every
dnsmasq "client" in the network.
Thanks
