- Remove `DNS_SERVER` (aka DOT) option: the DNS server forwarder part is now always enabled (see below why)
- Remove `DNS_KEEP_NAMESERVER`: the container will always use the built-in DNS server forwarder, because it can handle now local names with local resolvers (see #2970), it can use the `plain` upstream type (see https://github.com/qdm12/gluetun/commit/5ed6e8292278b54bb5081de0e8ccd0d63a275b3c) AND you can use `DNS_UPSTREAM_PLAIN_ADDRESSES` (see below)
- Replace `DNS_ADDRESS` with `DNS_UPSTREAM_PLAIN_ADDRESSES`:
- New CSV format with port, for example `ip1:port1,ip2:port2`
- requires `DNS_UPSTREAM_TYPE=plain` to be set to use `DNS_UPSTREAM_PLAIN_ADDRESSES` (unless using retro `DNS_ADDRESS`)
- retrocompatibility with `DNS_ADDRESS`. If set, force upstream type to plain and empty user-picked providers. 127.0.0.1 is now ignored since it's always set to this value internally.
- Warning log on using private upstream resolvers updated
- Warning log if using a private IP address for the plain DNS server which is not in your local subnets
All in all, this greatly simplifies code and available options (less options for the same features is a win). It also allows you to specify multiple plain DNS resolvers on ports other than 53 if needed.
- prevent dns plaintext manipulation both the periodic update and when running in cli mode
- possibly higher reliability on poor connections versus UDP
- drop `-dns` flag in update command
- for now no configuration allowed since it makes everything rather complex
- Fix#3179
- I believe specifying tcp4, tcp6 or tcp-client does not change anything versus tcp + remote ip address
- I believe specifying udp4 or udp6 does not change anything versus tcp + remote ip address
- Simplify firewall code to not account for tcp-client etc.
- restore if IPv4 set all policies fails
- fix deadlock when using iptables custom rules
- fix setting ipv6 rules when running runMixedIptablesInstruction
- all operations rollback on failure
- disabling the firewall means rolling back to its state before enabling it
- aligns with nftables atomicity feature
- prevent leaks for connections made the first ~10 milliseconds when Gluetun starts
- seems critical, but in practice this very rarely happen and it very hard to reproduce
- Fix DNS blocklists slow downloads, fix#3102
- Leave 35s timeout for updaters
- Set timeouts to 1s for local calls
- Set timeouts to 5s for LAN VPN calls and small external calls
- Set timeouts to 10s external VPN API calls
