Extensions to DNS
An extension record (EDNS) is extendable, includes a version number, payload size restrictions, TCP keepalive timers, etc. This is only used in transaction, and not persisted to a store. It is treat specially in decode and encode.
type t = private {
extended_rcode : int;
version : int;
dnssec_ok : bool;
payload_size : int;
extensions : extension list;
}
The type of an EDNS record.

t
create ~extended_rcode ~version ~dnssec_ok ~payload_size ~extensions ()
constructs an EDNS record with the optionally provided data. The extended_rcode
defaults to 0, version
defaults to 0, dnssec_ok
to false, payload_size
to the minimum payload size (512 byte), extensions
to the empty list.
reply edns
either constructs an EDNS record and returns a maximum payload size, or None
(if no EDNS is provided).
compare a b
compares the EDNS record a
with b
by comparing individual fields in-order. The extension list must be exactly in the same order.
val allocate_and_encode : t -> string
allocate_and_encode t
allocates a buffer and encodes t
into that buffer.
