- options that were flagged as obsolete or not implemented in 9.0.0
are now flagged as "ancient", and are a fatal error
- the ARM has been updated to remove these, along with other
obsolete descriptions of BIND 8 behavior
- the log message for obsolete options explicitly recommends removal
- added new 'validate-except' option, which configures an NTA with
expiry of 0xffffffff. NTAs with that value in the expiry field do not
expire, are are not written out when saving the NTA table and are not
dumped by rndc secroots
4749. [func] The ISC DLV service has been shut down, and all
DLV records have been removed from dlv.isc.org.
- Removed references to ISC DLV in documentation
- Removed DLV key from bind.keys
- No longer use ISC DLV by default in delv

4445. [cleanup] isc_errno_toresult() can now be used to call the
formerly private function isc__errno2result().
[RT #43050]
4444. [bug] Fixed some issues related to dyndb: A bug caused
braces to be omitted when passing configuration text
from named.conf to a dyndb driver, and there was a
use-after-free in the sample dyndb driver. [RT #43050]
Patch for dyndb driver submitted by Petr Spacek at Red Hat.
4040. [func] Added server-side support for pipelined TCP
queries. TCP connections are no longer closed after
the first query received from a client. (The new
"keep-response-order" option allows clients to be
specified for which the old behavior will still be
used.) [RT #37821]
3983. [bug] Change #3940 was incomplete: negative trust anchors
could be set to last up to a week, but the
"nta-lifetime" and "nta-recheck" options were
still limted to one day. [RT #37522]
3535. [func] Add support for setting Differentiated Services Code
Point (DSCP) values in named. Most configuration
options which take a "port" option (e.g.,
listen-on, forwarders, also-notify, masters,
notify-source, etc) can now also take a "dscp"
option specifying a code point for use with
outgoing traffic, if supported by the underlying
OS. [RT #27596]
3506. [func] When setting "max-cache-size" and "max-acache-size",
the keyword "unlimited" is no longer defined as equal
to 4 gigabytes (except on 32-bit platforms); it
means literally unlimited. [RT #32358]
3505. [bug] When setting "max-cache-size" and "max-acache-size",
larger values than 4 gigabytes could not be set
explicitly, though larger sizes were available
when setting cache size to 0. This has been
corrected; the full range is now available.
[RT #32358]
3501. [func] zone-statistics now takes three options: full,
terse, and none. "yes" and "no" are retained as
synonyms for full and terse, respectively. [RT #29165]
