feat: recursive resolution + full DNSSEC validation
...
Numa becomes a true DNS resolver — resolves from root nameservers
with complete DNSSEC chain-of-trust verification.
Recursive resolution:
- Iterative RFC 1034 from configurable root hints (13 default)
- CNAME chasing (depth 8), referral following (depth 10)
- A+AAAA glue extraction, IPv6 nameserver support
- TLD priming: NS + DS + DNSKEY for 34 gTLDs + EU ccTLDs
- Config: mode = "recursive" in [upstream], root_hints, prime_tlds
DNSSEC (all 4 phases):
- EDNS0 OPT pseudo-record (DO bit, 1232 payload per DNS Flag Day 2020)
- DNSKEY, DS, RRSIG, NSEC, NSEC3 record types with wire read/write
- Signature verification via ring: RSA/SHA-256, ECDSA P-256, Ed25519
- Chain-of-trust: zone DNSKEY → parent DS → root KSK (key tag 20326)
- DNSKEY RRset self-signature verification (RRSIG(DNSKEY) by KSK)
- RRSIG expiration/inception time validation
- NSEC: NXDOMAIN gap proofs, NODATA type absence, wildcard denial
- NSEC3: SHA-1 iterated hashing, closest encloser proof, hash range
- Authority RRSIG verification for denial proofs
- Config: [dnssec] enabled/strict (default false, opt-in)
- AD bit on Secure, SERVFAIL on Bogus+strict
- DnssecStatus cached per entry, ValidationStats logging
Performance:
- TLD chain pre-warmed on startup (root DNSKEY + TLD DS/DNSKEY)
- Referral DS piggybacking from authority sections
- DNSKEY prefetch before validation loop
- Cold-cache validation: ~1 DNSKEY fetch (down from 5)
- Benchmarks: RSA 10.9µs, ECDSA 174ns, DS verify 257ns
Also:
- write_qname fix for root domain "." (was producing malformed queries)
- write_record_header() dedup, write_bytes() bulk writes
- DnsRecord::domain() + query_type() accessors
- UpstreamMode enum, DEFAULT_EDNS_PAYLOAD const
- Real glue TTL (was hardcoded 3600)
- DNSSEC restricted to recursive mode only

perf: optimize DNS query hot path ( #15 )
...
* perf: optimize hot path — RwLock, inline filtering, pre-allocated strings
- Mutex → RwLock for cache, blocklist, and overrides (concurrent read access)
- Make cache.lookup() and overrides.lookup() take &self (read-only)
- Eliminate 3 Vec allocations per DnsPacket::write() via inline filtering
- Pre-allocate domain strings with capacity 64 in parse path
- Add criterion micro-benchmarks (hot_path + throughput)
- Add bench README documenting both benchmark suites
Measured improvement: ~14% faster parsing, ~9% pipeline throughput,
round-trip cached 733ns → 698ns (~2.3M queries/sec).

* chore: simplify benchmark code after review
- Remove redundant DnsHeader::new() (already set by DnsPacket::new())
- Remove unused DnsHeader import
- Change simulate_cached_pipeline to take &DnsCache (lookup is &self now)
- Remove unnecessary mut on cache in cache_lookup_miss bench

launch hardening: TC bit, Dockerfile, platform-aware deploy
...
- Set TC (truncation) bit when response exceeds 4096-byte buffer
instead of dropping the response silently. Clients can retry via TCP.
- Log when upstream response is truncated in forward.rs.
- Dockerfile: bump to Rust 1.88, include site/service files, use
alpine runtime instead of scratch, add cmake/perl for aws-lc-sys.
- Makefile deploy: platform-aware — codesign on macOS, systemctl on Linux.
- README: trim roadmap to near-term items only.
- Verified: Docker build + smoke test passes on Linux (Alpine musl).
