* The systemd-resolved DNS resolver service has gained a substantial
set of new features, most prominently it may now act as a DNSSEC
validating stub resolver. DNSSEC mode is currently turned off by

- of the next releases. For now, we invite everybody to test the DNSSEC
- logic by setting DNSSEC=allow-downgrade in
- /etc/systemd/resolved.conf. The service also gained a full set of
- D-Bus interfaces, including calls to configure DNS and DNSSEC
- settings per link (for consumption by external network management
- software). systemd-resolved (and systemd-networkd along with it) now
- know to distinguish between "search" and "routing" domains. The
- former are used to qualify single-label names, the latter are purely
- used for routing lookups within certain domains to specific
- links. resolved will now also synthesize RRs for all entries from
- /etc/hosts.
