Hello team!
c-ares 1.22.0 was just released. Get it as always from https://c-ares.org/
c-ares version 1.22.0
This is a feature release with some significant internal changes.
Features:
o ares_reinit() is now implemented to re-read any system configuration and
immediately apply to an existing ares channel [2]
o The adig command line program has been rewritten and its format now more
closely matches that of BIND's dig utility [3]
o The new DNS message parser and writer functions have now been made public [4]
o RFC9460 HTTPS and SVCB records are now supported [5]
o RFC6698 TLSA records are now supported [6]
o The server list is now internally dynamic and can be changed without
impacting existing queries [10]
o Hosts file processing is now cached until the file is detected to be changed
to speed up repetitive lookups of large hosts files [11]
Changes:
o Internally all DNS messages are now written using the new DNS writing
functions [7]
o EDNS is now enabled by default [8]
o Internal cleanups in function prototypes [9]
Bug Fixes:
o Randomize retry penalties to prevent thundering herd issues when dns
servers throttle requests [1]
o Fix Windows build error for missing if_indextoname() [10]
