I'm about to update ubuntu's bind9 9.16.0 to 9.16.1, and wanted to ask about the pros and cons of this feature change: """ The system-provided POSIX Threads read-write lock implementation is now used by default instead of the native BIND 9 implementation. """ Ubuntu was highlighted in that change due to a bug in bionic[1], for which I have an SRU prepared and am just waiting on a review from my colleagues. There are ppa packages for testing, if someone wants to verify it. glibc is not a package I maintain, but I have an interest in bind9 working well, so I jumped in. But my question is about the upcoming ubuntu focal 20.04, which has an unaffected glibc. Since this is a feature change, and we are in Feature Freeze, I'll have to justify it to the archive admins, and wanted to get some input on what this change makes better. I understand it's your recommendation to use it, since it's the new upstream default, but do you have some more details? Thanks! 1. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/glibc/+bug/1864864 _______________________________________________ Please visit https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users to unsubscribe from this list bind-users mailing list bind-users@lists.isc.org https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-users
