Subject: [PATCH 1/2] knot-resolver: Add force-reload
Date: Fri, 13 Nov 2026 14:42:42 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261113134243.382773-2-antonio@mandelbit.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261113134243.382773-1-antonio@mandelbit.com>
A reload doesn't restart the workers when config.yaml is unchanged, so
they keep what their Lua script set up at startup. force-reload (also
available through dnsctrl) replaces them with a rolling restart.
