[1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extension_Mechanisms_for_DNS [Test Plan] Test case for bionic: ----------------------------------------- IFACE=dummy0 SUBNET=10.0.0 ip link add $IFACE type dummy ifconfig $IFACE ${SUBNET}.1/24 dnsmasq -h -R -d -C /dev/null -2 $IFACE -z -i $IFACE -I lo --host-record=test.test,${SUBNET}.1 --server=/test/ & dig -t a test.test @10.0.0.1 | grep EDNS # returns "; EDNS ..." dig -t aaaa test.test @10.0.0.1 | grep EDNS # again, should return "; EDNS ..." but doesn't. # does so with the -proposed package. ----------------------------------------- [Where problems could occur] Problems may occur in case a client queries dnsmasq and relies on EDNS0 not being available for behaving correctly. This covers cases where the software querying dnsmasq is buggy or misconfigured. [Development Fix] Fixed upstream in dnsmasq >= 2.80. [Stable Fix] Partial cherry-pick of upstream commit http://thekelleys.org.uk/gitweb/?p=dnsmasq.git;a=commit;h=1682d15a744880b0398af75eadf68fe66128af78 The cherry-pick is partial because half if it is already in the package .diff we have in Bionic.
