Functions§

get_nxdomain_nodata_soa: Check if this is an NXDOMAIN or NODATA response and return the SOA if so.

query_nameserver_tcp 🔒: Send a message to a remote nameserver over TCP, returning the response. This has the same return value caveats as query_nameserver_udp.
query_nameserver_tcp_notimeout 🔒: Timeout-less version of query_nameserver_tcp.
