These options and zone type were created to address the
SiteFinder controversy, in which certain TLD's redirected queries
rather than returning NXDOMAIN. since TLD's are now DNSSEC-signed,
this is no longer likely to be a problem.
The deprecation message for 'type delegation-only' is issued from
the configuration checker rather than the parser. therefore,
isccfg_check_namedconf() has been modified to take a 'nodeprecate'
parameter to suppress the warning when named-checkconf is used with
the command-line option to ignore warnings on deprecated options (-i).
(cherry picked from commit 2399556bee)
DSCP has not been fully working since the network manager was
introduced in 9.16, and has been completely broken since 9.18.
This seems to have caused very few difficulties for anyone,
so we have now marked it as obsolete and removed the
implementation.
To ensure that old config files don't fail, the code to parse
dscp key-value pairs is still present, but a warning is logged
that the feature is obsolete and should not be used. Nothing is
done with configured values, and there is no longer any
range checking.
(cherry picked from commit 916ea26ead)
4873. [doc] Grammars for named.conf included in the ARM are now
automatically generated by the configuration parser
itself. As a side effect of the work needed to
separate zone type grammars from each other, this
also makes checking of zone statements in
named-checkconf more correct and consistent.
