Ran it for a while on Mac OS X, get a bunch of:

Error parsing DNS packet: Failed to parse DNS packet: query type 65 is invalid

Error parsing DNS packet: Failed to parse DNS packet: query type 65 is invalid

is this for google/youtube requests? im getting the same with google searches, and youtube video loads

For some context, query type 65 is the 'HTTPSSVC' query (draft, upstream github repo)

Related: I am getting "query type 256 is invalid" in Linux. I am adding this here, because maybe the code just needs some "consolidated" way to deal with these different/unnusual types of packets.

[jvns]

All of the "query type X is invalid" errors are happening because the DNS packet parsing crate dnspeep is using is very incomplete and only supports these record types. I think this isn't a great choice of crate and we should use a different one.

Some other Rust DNS code and links to the record types they support right now:

• dns-message-parser (which supports more options and I some didn't see when initially looking for DNS parser crates)
• trust-dns
• dog

I think the best thing might to be to use dns-message-parser and then make PRs to it to get support for more query types as needed.

A quick look at dns_message_parser, yes it seems like it does support a lot more types than dns_parser. I can even see type 256 (URI), but not 65 (HTTPS), most likely because that one is still in draft.
Thanks for checking this out!
For me, no rush on the implementation. So far it's been working great for me, the other records are just icing on the cake. :)

BTW: On my Linux Client (OpenSUSE) I have seen also some
Error parsing DNS packet: Failed to parse DNS packet: query type 43 is invalid
🤔

A variant of this issue that shows up on my computer (macOS):

Error parsing DNS packet: Failed to parse DNS packet: Could not decode QType: 65

@jvns , great, thank you very much 🎉
Can you tell me/us when we will get a new release for this and all other changes since April 2021?

[jvns]

Made a new release.

@jvns I've just downloaded the latest version for macos but it still produces this error

sudo dnspeep

query name                           server IP            response
Error parsing DNS packet: Failed to parse DNS packet: Could not decode QType: 65

On my Macbook no error message like this are occuring anymore 👍🏻 Even if I'm opening https://curiousprogrammer.net/ in the browser.

But on my Linux Desktop it says that a different type is not yet implemented:

Error parsing DNS packet: Failed to parse DNS packet: Decode of type RRSIG is not yet implemented

Found an old issue from April 2020 opened by me: #19

Opened a new issue for "got response for unknown query ID": #26
