Bug ID: 18419
Summary: add an option to resolv.conf to set all-zeros
edns-client-subnet option
Product: glibc
Version: unspecified
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: P2
Component: libc
Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org
Reporter: dkg at fifthhorseman dot net
CC: drepper.fsp at gmail dot com
Target Milestone: ---
https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-dnsop-edns-client-subnet-00 is a
mechanism to allow recursive resolvers to pass along parts of the end client's
IP address to the authoritative server.
This is a potential privacy risk, as outlined in section 10.1 of that document:
https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-dnsop-edns-client-subnet-00#section-10.1
but users can opt out, which should cause compliant recursive resolvers to not
leak any part of their address:
Users who wish their full IP address to be hidden can include an
edns-client-subnet option specifying the wildcard address 0.0.0.0/0
(i.e. FAMILY set to 1 (IPv4), SOURCE NETMASK to 0 and no ADDRESS).
As described in previous sections, this option will be forwarded
across all the Recursive Resolvers supporting edns-client-subnet,
which MUST NOT modify it to include the network address of the
client.
the libc resolver mechanism should provide an option so that users who wish to
signal this wish to opt out can do so. I think this option probably needs to
imply the existing "edns0" option, as specified in resolv.conf(5).
If this is the wrong place to request this feature enhancement, please let me
know where it would be better served.
Thanks for all the work on libc!

Request seems sensible at face value. Someone will have to work on it though,
until then marking suspended.
