Thanks Simon to pick this up with your SME,
have you opened a tracker bug for this in Debian or Upstream so that we can
track it if it is implemented some day.

Title:
Negative cache results from dnsmasq do not include SOA as required in
RFC2308
Status in dnsmasq package in Ubuntu:
Triaged
Bug description:
RFC2308 states:
6 - Negative answers from the cache
When a server, in answering a query, encounters a cached negative
response it MUST add the cached SOA record to the authority section
of the response with the TTL decremented by the amount of time it was
stored in the cache. This allows the NXDOMAIN / NODATA response to
time out correctly.
The effect is that the negative cache results returned by dnsmasq
cannot be cached by other resolvers such as systemd-resolved.
A good example of why this is a problem:
Two clients with systemd-resolved send DNS queries to dnsmasq for the same
record
The first one makes a query and gets NXDOMAIN with SOA.
This results in systemd-resolved caching the negative result.
The second client makes a query and gets NODATA without the SOA.
This results in systemd-resolved not caching the negative result.
Consider a domain name that only has an A record published.
When connecting to that domain a lookup happens for the AAAA and A record.
One can end up in a situation where systemd-resolved has the A record cached
locally, but it still goes out to the network to perform the AAAA lookup only
to get the same negative cache result that is missing the SOA
I see this behavior in 18.04 and 22.04
First query to dnsmasq can be cached:
