Log Message:
Importing BIND 9.8.0 as net/bind98.

Full release note:
        http://ftp.isc.org/isc/bind9/9.8.0/RELEASE-NOTES-BIND-9.8.html

New Features

9.8.0

     * The ADB hash table stores informations about which authoritative
       servers to query about particular domains. Previous versions of
       BIND had the hash table size as a fixed value. On a busy recursive
       server, this could lead to hash table collisions in the ADB cache,
       resulting in degraded response time to queries. Bind 9.8 now has a
       dynamically scalable ADB hash table, which helps a busy server to
       avoid hash table collisions and maintain a consistent query
       response time. [RT #21186]
     * BIND now supports a new zone type, static-stub. This allows the
       administrator of a recursive nameserver to force queries for a
       particular zone to go to IP addresses of the administrator's
       choosing, on a per zone basis, both globally or per view. I.e. if
       the administrator wishes to have their recursive server query
       192.0.2.1 and 192.0.2.2 for zone example.com rather than the
       servers listed by the .com gTLDs, they would configure example.com
       as a static-stub zone in their recursive server. [RT #21474]
     * BIND now supports Response Policy Zones, a way of expressing
       "reputation" in real time via specially constructed DNS zones. See
       the draft specification here:
       http://ftp.isc.org/isc/dnsrpz/isc-tn-2010-1.txt [RT #21726]
     * BIND 9.8.0 now has DNS64 support. named synthesizes AAAA records
       from specified A records if no AAAA record exists. IP6.ARPA CNAME
       records will be synthesized from corresponding IN-ADDR.ARPA. [RT
       #21991/22769]
     * Dynamically Loadable Zones (DLZ) now support dynamic updates.
       Contributed by Andrew Tridgell of the Samba Project. [RT #22629]
     * Added a "dlopen" DLZ driver, allowing the creation of external DLZ
       drivers that can be loaded as shared objects at runtime rather than
       having to be linked with named at compile time. Currently this is
       switched on via a compile-time option, "configure
       --with-dlz-dlopen". Note: the syntax for configuring DLZ zones is
       likely to be refined in future releases. Contributed by Andrew
       Tridgell of the Samba Project. [RT #22629]
     * named now retains GSS-TSIG keys across restarts. This is for
       compatibility with Microsoft DHCP servers doing dynamic DNS updates
       for clients, which don't know to renegotiate the GSS-TSIG session
       key when named restarts. [RT #22639]
     * There is a new update-policy match type "external". This allows
       named to decide whether to allow a dynamic update by checking with
       an external daemon. Contributed by Andrew Tridgell of the Samba
       Project. [RT #22758]
     * There have been a number of bug fixes and ease of use enhancements
       for configuring BIND to support GSS-TSIG [RT #22629/22795]. These
       include:
          + Added a "tkey-gssapi-keytab" option. If set, dynamic updates
            will be allowed for any key matching a Kerberos principal in
            the specified keytab file. "tkey-gssapi-credential" is no
            longer required and is expected to be deprecated. Contributed
            by Andrew Tridgell of the Samba Project. [RT #22629]
          + It is no longer necessary to have a valid /etc/krb5.conf file.
            Using the syntax DNS/hostname@REALM in nsupdate is sufficient
            for to correctly set the default realm. [RT #22795]
          + Documentation updated new gssapi configuration options (new
            option tkey-gssapi-keytab and changes in
            tkey-gssapi-credential and tkey-domain behavior). [RT 22795]
          + DLZ correctly deals with NULL zone in a query. [RT 22795]
          + TSIG correctly deals with a NULL tkey->creator. [RT 22795]
     * A new test has been added to check the apex NSEC3 records after
       DNSKEY records have been added via dynamic update. [RT #23229]
     * RTT banding (randomized server selection on queries) was introduced
       in BIND releases in 2008, due to the Kaminsky cache poisoning bug.
       Instead of always picking the authoritative server with the lowest
       RTT to the caching resolver, all the authoritative servers within
       an RTT range were randomly used by the recursive server.
       While this did add an extra bit of randomness that an attacker had
       to overcome to poison a recursive server's cache, it also impacts
       the resolver's speed in answering end customer queries, since it's
       no longer the fastest auth server that gets asked. This means that
       performance optimizations, such using topologically close
       authoritative servers, are rendered ineffective.
       ISC has evaluated the amount of security added versus the
       performance hit to end users and has decided that RTT banding is
       causing more harm than good. Therefore, with this release, BIND is
       going back to the server selection used prior to adding RTT
       banding. [RT #23310]

Feature Changes

9.8.0

     * There is a new option in dig, +onesoa, that allows the final SOA
       record in an AXFR response to be suppressed. [RT #20929
     * There is additional information displayed in the recursing log
       (qtype, qclass, qid and whether we are following the original
       name). [RT #22043]
     * Added option 'resolver-query-timeout' in named.conf (max query
       timeout in seconds) to set a different value than the default (30
       seconds). A value of 0 means 'use the compiled in default';
       anything longer than 30 will be silently set to 30. [RT #22852]
     * For Mac OS X, you can now have the test interfaces used during
       "make test" stay beyond reboot. See bin/tests/system/README for
       details.
