4578. [security] Some chaining (CNAME or DNAME) responses to upstream
queries could trigger assertion failures.
(CVE-2017-3137) [RT #44734]
(cherry picked from commit a1365a0042)
4235. [func] Added support in named for "dnstap", a fast method of
capturing and logging DNS traffic, and a new command
"dnstap-read" to read a dnstap log file. Use
"configure --enable-dnstap" to enable this
feature (note that this requires libprotobuf-c
and libfstrm). See the ARM for configuration details.

startup-notify-rate instead of serial-query-rate.
[RT #24454]
3955. [bug] Notify messages due to changes are no longer queued
behind startup notify messages. [RT #24454]
3936. [func] Added authoritative support for the EDNS Client
Subnet (ECS) option.
ACLs can now include "ecs" elements which specify
an address or network prefix; if an ECS option is
included in a DNS query, then the address encoded
in the option will be matched against "ecs" ACL
elements.
Also, if an ECS address is included in a query,
then it will be used instead of the client source
address when matching "geoip" ACL elements. This
behavior can be overridden with "geoip-use-ecs no;".
When "ecs" or "geoip" ACL elements are used to
select a view for a query, the response will include
an ECS option to indicate which client network the
answer is valid for.

3832. [func] "named -L <filename>" causes named to send log
messages to the specified file by default instead
of to the system log. (Thanks to Tony Finch.)
[RT #35845]
3829. [func] "dig +ttlunits" causes dig to print TTL values
with time-unit suffixes: w, d, h, m, s for
weeks, days, hours, minutes, and seconds. (Thanks
to Tony Finch.) [RT #35823]
