//! MagicDNS responder with a split-DNS / recursive forwarder.
//!
//! An in-netstack DNS server bound to `100.100.100.100:53`. It is authoritative for in-tailnet
//! peer names and control-pushed [`ExtraRecord`][ts_control::ExtraRecord]s, answering `A`/`AAAA`/
//! `PTR` for those directly — plus, for a peer control has marked with the `dns-subdomain-resolve`
//! node attribute ([`Node::resolves_subdomains`]), every name *under* that peer's name
//! ([`DnsView::subdomain_host_for`]). For names it is *not* authoritative for, it brings tsnet-style
//! split-DNS and recursive resolution:
//!
//! - **Split DNS** ([`DnsConfig::routes`]): the longest matching suffix route forwards the query
//!   to one of that route's upstream resolvers. A route with an **empty** upstream list is a
//!   negative route — names under it are `NXDOMAIN` (Go keeps them on the built-in resolver; for
//!   us that means fail-closed unless an overlay/extra record matched first).
//! - **Recursive** ([`DnsConfig::fallback_resolvers`] / [`DnsConfig::resolvers`]): names matching
//!   no route are forwarded to the fallback resolvers, else the global resolvers.
//! - **Fail closed**: if no route and no resolver is configured, an unknown name is `NXDOMAIN`.
//! - **A refusing upstream does not end a forward**: a `REFUSED` or `SERVFAIL` from one upstream is
//!   a *soft* error — the next upstream on the route (or in the fallback list) is tried, and the
//!   refusal is relayed to the client only when no upstream did better (see [`forward_query`]).
//!
//! Anti-leak / IPv6-off posture: upstream forwarding binds `0.0.0.0:0` (UDP, IPv4 only) and never
//! opens an IPv6 socket. AAAA handling is gated on [`DnsView::enable_ipv6`] (default off): with the
//! gate OFF an AAAA query for a tailnet/overlay/self name returns NoError with an empty answer
//! (NODATA) rather than the overlay v6 address — answering a v6 the IPv4-only client can't route
//! would only create dead connections and a fingerprint. With the gate ON, AAAA is answered from
//! overlay data (the v6 overlay addr), as historically. AAAA for tailnet names is never forwarded
//! to a recursive upstream regardless of the gate.
//!
//! - MagicDNS disabled (`dns_config == None` or `magic_dns == false`), OR the node does not accept
//!   the tailnet DNS config ([`DnsView::accept_dns`] is `false`, i.e. `--accept-dns` / `CorpDNS`
//!   off) => `REFUSED` for every query (the responder serves nothing, mirroring Go applying an empty
//!   `dns.Config` when `CorpDNS` is off).
//! - A qtype/class we don't serve authoritatively (anything but IN-class A/AAAA/PTR — TXT, SRV, MX,
//!   HTTPS/SVCB, a CHAOS-class query, …) => NODATA (empty NOERROR) for a tailnet-authoritative name,
//!   forwarded verbatim to upstream for an off-tailnet name — exactly like Go's resolver, NOT
//!   `REFUSED` (a stub reads REFUSED as "won't serve me" and abandons the resolver). Tailnet reverse
//!   zones (CGNAT `in-addr.arpa` / any `ip6.arpa`) still fail closed to NXDOMAIN for every qtype
//!   (never forwarded — anti-leak).
//! - A **negative** answer this node is authoritative for — an NXDOMAIN for a name inside a zone we
//!   serve (a tailnet search domain, a negative split-DNS route, or the CGNAT reverse zone), or a
//!   NODATA for such a name — carries that zone's `SOA` in the authority section, advertising a
//!   10-second negative-caching bound (RFC 2308). Without one, macOS `mDNSResponder` keeps an
//!   SOA-less negative answer on its own schedule, so a name queried shortly *before* a node was
//!   renamed to it stays unresolvable until something flushes the cache. Positive answers carry a
//!   5-second TTL for the same reason in the other direction. `SERVFAIL`, `REFUSED` and the blanket
//!   `ip6.arpa` refusal claim no zone and carry no SOA.
//! - Malformed query => dropped (no response).
//! - A reply larger than the UDP payload size the query advertised — its EDNS(0) OPT record, or 512
//!   bytes when it carried none or carried one this node will not act on (RFC 1035) — comes back
//!   with the `TC` (truncated) bit set and its body intact, so the stub resolver knows to retry over
//!   TCP ([`check_response_size_and_set_tc`]). This applies to forwarded replies, where the query is
//!   relayed verbatim and so this is what catches an upstream that ignores the size its requestor
//!   asked for, and equally to answers this node composes itself. The retry that bit asks for is served
//!   by the `dns_over_tcp` server (TUN mode), which reaches the same [`decide`] through
//!   the same view — and which is never handed a `TC` bit for size, since a TCP client has no
//!   datagram to overflow (see [`ClientTransport`]).

/// The odd-looking 4095 is deliberate upstream: `sendUDP` reads into a `maxResponseBytes+1` buffer
/// precisely so that a 4096-byte read is *detectable* as "the answer did not fit", and then cuts the
/// reply back to 4095 and sets `TC`. A 4096-byte answer is a truncated answer everywhere else in a
/// tailnet, so it has to be one here too: relaying it whole with `TC` clear is a message a Go peer
/// would have handed its stub resolver as truncated.
///
/// *Where the bound applies differs from Go*: here it is not a read bound and it does not bound
/// memory. [`forward_query`] reads with `recv_from_bytes`, which issues `Recv { max_len: None }`, so
/// the netstack has already copied the whole queued datagram out before [`cap_response`] sees it.
/// What bounds the read is the netstack UDP socket's receive ring —
/// `netcore::Config::udp_buffer_size`, 4 KiB by default and not overridden by `ts_runtime` — and
/// smoltcp drops a datagram larger than that ring at enqueue rather than delivering a chopped one.
/// That ring is 4096 and this cap is 4095, so the ring plays exactly the part Go's `+1` byte plays:
/// the one datagram size it can deliver and this cap cannot pass is the full-ring 4096-byte answer,
/// which [`cap_response`] then chops to 4095 and marks `TC` (pinned by
/// `full_ring_datagram_is_chopped_and_marked_truncated`).
///
/// The client's query is forwarded verbatim, so a client advertising a large EDNS UDP size can
/// elicit a legitimately large (1300–4095 byte) UDP answer (big TXT sets, DNSSEC, many-record
/// round-robins). Capping at the old 1232 truncated those and set TC, forcing a TCP retry — which
/// nothing served at the time, so the large answer became unreachable. 4095 relays them intact.
