+.. _Upgrade 2.4.x to 2.5.x:
+
+Upgrade 2.4.x to 2.5.x
+======================
+
+This chapter describes some steps necessary after upgrading Knot DNS from
+version 2.4.x to 2.5.x.
+
+.. _Building changes:
+
+Building changes
+----------------
+
+The ``--enable-dnstap`` configure option now enables the dnstap support in
+:doc:`kdig<man_kdig>` only! To build the dnstap query module, ``--with-module-dnstap``
+have to be used.
+
+Since Knot DNS version 2.5.0 each query module can be configured to be:
+
+- disabled: ``--with-module-``\ MODULE_NAME\ ``=no``
+- embedded: ``--with-module-``\ MODULE_NAME\ ``=yes``
+- external: ``--with-module-``\ MODULE_NAME\ ``=shared`` (excluding
+ ``dnsproxy`` and ``onlinesign``)
+
+The ``--with-timer-mapsize`` configure option was replaced with the runtime
+``template.max-timer-db-size`` configuration option.
+
+.. _KASP DB migration:
+
+KASP DB migration
+-----------------
+
+Knot DNS version 2.4.x and earlier uses JSON files to store DNSSEC keys metadata,
+one for each zone. 2.5.x versions store those in binary format in a LMDB, all zones
+together. The migration is possible with the
+`pykeymgr <https://gitlab.nic.cz/knot/knot-dns/blob/2.6/src/utils/pykeymgr/pykeymgr.in>`_
+script::
+
+ $ pykeymgr -i path/to/keydir
+
+The path to KASP DB directory is configuration-dependent, usually it is the ``keys``
+subdirectory in the zone storage.
+
+In rare installations, the JSON files might be spread across more directories. In such
+case, it is necessary to put them together into one directory and migrate at once.
+
+.. _Configuration changes 2.5:
+
+Configuration changes
+---------------------
+
+It is no longer possible to configure KASP DB per zone or in a non-default
+template. Ensure just one common KASP DB configuration in the default
+template.
+
+As Knot DNS version 2.5.0 brings dynamically loaded modules, some modules
+were renamed for technical reasons. So it is necessary to rename all
+occurrences (module section names and references from zones or templates)
+of the following module names in the configuration::
+
+ mod-online-sign -> mod-onlinesign
+
+ mod-synth-record -> mod-synthrecord
+
+.. _Upgrade 2.5.x to 2.6.x:
+
+Upgrade 2.5.x to 2.6.x
+======================
+
+Upgrading from Knot DNS version 2.5.x to 2.6.x is almost seamless.
+
+.. _Configuration changes 2.6:
+
+Configuration changes
+---------------------
+
+The ``dsa`` and ``dsa-nsec3-sha1`` algorithm values are no longer supported
+by the :ref:`policy_algorithm` option.
+
+The ``ixfr-from-differences`` zone/template option was deprecated in favor of
+the :ref:`zone_zonefile-load` option.
+
+.. _Upgrade 2.6.x to 2.7.x:
+
+Upgrade 2.6.x to 2.7.x
+======================
+
+Upgrading from Knot DNS version 2.6.x to 2.7.x is seamless if no obsolete
+configuration or module rosedb is used.
+
+.. _Upgrade 2.7.x to 2.8.x:
+
+Upgrade 2.7.x to 2.8.x
+======================
+
+Upgrading from Knot DNS version 2.7.x to 2.8.x is seamless.
+
+However, if the previous version was migrated (possibly indirectly)
+from version 2.5.x, the format of the keys stored in
+Keys And Signature Policy Database
+is no longer compatible and needs to be updated.
+
+The easiest ways to update how keys are stored in KASP DB is to modify
+with Keymgr version 2.7.x
+some of each key's parameters in an undamaging way, e.g.::
+
+ $ keymgr example.com. list
+ $ keymgr example.com. set <keyTag> created=1
+ $ keymgr example.com. set <keyTag2> created=1
+ ...
+
+.. _Upgrade 2.8.x to 2.9.x:
+
+Upgrade 2.8.x to 2.9.x
+======================
+
+Upgrading from Knot DNS version 2.8.x to 2.9.x is almost seamless but check
+the following changes first.
+
+Configuration changes
+---------------------
+
+- Imperfect runtime reconfiguration of :ref:`server_udp-workers`,
+ :ref:`server_tcp-workers`, and :ref:`server_listen`
+ is no longer supported.
+
+- Replaced options (with backward compatibility):
+
+ .. csv-table::
+ :header: Old section, Old item name, New section, New item name
+ :widths: 35, 60, 35, 60
+
+ :ref:`server<Server section>` , ``tcp-reply-timeout`` [s] , :ref:`server<Server section>` , :ref:`server_tcp-remote-io-timeout` [ms]
+ :ref:`server<Server section>` , ``max-tcp-clients`` , :ref:`server<Server section>` , :ref:`server_tcp-max-clients`
+ :ref:`server<Server section>` , ``max-udp-payload`` , :ref:`server<Server section>` , :ref:`server_udp-max-payload`
+ :ref:`server<Server section>` , ``max-ipv4-udp-payload`` , :ref:`server<Server section>` , :ref:`server_udp-max-payload-ipv4`
+ :ref:`server<Server section>` , ``max-ipv6-udp-payload`` , :ref:`server<Server section>` , :ref:`server_udp-max-payload-ipv6`
+ :ref:`template<Template section>` , ``journal-db`` , :ref:`database<Database section>` , :ref:`database_journal-db`
+ :ref:`template<Template section>` , ``journal-db-mode`` , :ref:`database<Database section>` , :ref:`database_journal-db-mode`
+ :ref:`template<Template section>` , ``max-journal-db-size`` , :ref:`database<Database section>` , :ref:`database_journal-db-max-size`
+ :ref:`template<Template section>` , ``kasp-db`` , :ref:`database<Database section>` , :ref:`database_kasp-db`
+ :ref:`template<Template section>` , ``max-kasp-db-size`` , :ref:`database<Database section>` , :ref:`database_kasp-db-max-size`
+ :ref:`template<Template section>` , ``timer-db`` , :ref:`database<Database section>` , :ref:`database_timer-db`
+ :ref:`template<Template section>` , ``max-timer-db-size`` , :ref:`database<Database section>` , :ref:`database_timer-db-max-size`
+ :ref:`zone<Zone section>` , ``max-journal-usage`` , :ref:`zone<Zone section>` , :ref:`zone_journal-max-usage`
+ :ref:`zone<Zone section>` , ``max-journal-depth`` , :ref:`zone<Zone section>` , :ref:`zone_journal-max-depth`
+ :ref:`zone<Zone section>` , ``max-zone-size`` , :ref:`zone<Zone section>` , :ref:`zone_zone-max-size`
+ :ref:`zone<Zone section>` , ``max-refresh-interval`` , :ref:`zone<Zone section>` , :ref:`zone_refresh-max-interval`
+ :ref:`zone<Zone section>` , ``min-refresh-interval`` , :ref:`zone<Zone section>` , :ref:`zone_refresh-min-interval`
+
+- Removed options (no backward compatibility):
+
+ - ``server.tcp-handshake-timeout``
+ - ``zone.request-edns-option``
+
+- New default values for:
+
+ - :ref:`server_tcp-workers`
+ - :ref:`server_tcp-max-clients`
+ - :ref:`server_udp-max-payload`
+ - :ref:`server_udp-max-payload-ipv4`
+ - :ref:`server_udp-max-payload-ipv6`
+
+- New DNSSEC policy option :ref:`policy_rrsig-pre-refresh` may affect
+ configuration validity, which is ``rrsig-refresh + rrsig-pre-refresh < rrsig-lifetime``
+
+Miscellaneous changes
+---------------------
+
+- Memory use estimation via ``knotc zone-memstats`` was removed
+- Based on `<https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-dnsop-server-cookies>`_
+ the module :ref:`DNS Cookies<mod-cookies>` was updated to be interoperable
+- Number of open files limit is set to 1048576 in upstream packages
+
+.. _Upgrade 2.9.x to 3.0.x:
+
+Upgrade 2.9.x to 3.0.x
+======================
+
+Knot DNS version 3.0.x is functionally compatible with 2.9.x with the following
+exceptions.
+
+ACL
+---
+
+Configuration option :ref:`acl_update-owner-name` is newly FQDN-sensitive.
+It means that values ``a.example.com`` and ``a.example.com.`` are not equivalent.
+
+Module synthrecord
+------------------
+
+:ref:`Reverse IPv6 address shortening<mod-synthrecord_reverse-short>` is enabled by default.
+For example, the module generates::
+
+ dynamic-2620-0-b61-100--1.test. 400 IN AAAA 2620:0:b61:100::1
+
+instead of::
+
+ dynamic-2620-0000-0b61-0100-0000-0000-0000-0001.test. 400 IN AAAA 2620:0:b61:100::1
+
+Query module API change
+-----------------------
+
+The following functions require additional parameter (thread id – ``qdata->params->thread_id``)
+on the second position::
+
+ knotd_mod_stats_incr()
+ knotd_mod_stats_decr()
+ knotd_mod_stats_store()
+
+Building notes
+--------------
+
+- The embedded library *LMDB* is no longer part of the source code. Almost every
+ modern operating system has a sufficient version of this library.
+- DoH support in kdig requires optional library *libnghttp2*.
+- XDP support on Linux requires optional library *libbpf >= 0.0.6*. If not available,
+ an embedded library can be used via ``--enable-xdp=yes`` configure option.
+
+.. _Upgrade 3.0.x to 3.1.x:
+
+Upgrade 3.0.x to 3.1.x
+======================
+
+Knot DNS version 3.1.x is functionally compatible with 3.0.x with the following
+exceptions.
+
+Configuration changes
+---------------------
+
+- Automatic SOA serial incrementation (``zonefile-load: difference-no-serial``)
+ requires having full zone stored in the journal (``journal-content: all``).
+ This change is necessary for reliable operation.
+
+- Replaced options (with backward compatibility):
+
+ .. csv-table::
+ :header: Old section, Old item name, New section, New item name
+ :widths: 40, 60, 40, 60
+
+ :ref:`server<Server section>`, ``listen-xdp``, :ref:`xdp<XDP section>`, :ref:`xdp_listen`
+
+- Ignored obsolete options (with a notice log):
+
+ - ``server.max-zone-size``
+ - ``server.max-journal-depth``
+ - ``server.max-journal-usage``
+ - ``server.max-refresh-interval``
+ - ``server.min-refresh-interval``
+ - ``server.max-ipv4-udp-payload``
+ - ``server.max-ipv6-udp-payload``
+ - ``server.max-udp-payload``
+ - ``server.max-tcp-clients``
+ - ``server.tcp-reply-timeout``
+ - ``template.journal-db``
+ - ``template.kasp-db``
+ - ``template.timer-db``
+ - ``template.max-journal-db-size``
+ - ``template.max-timer-db-size``
+ - ``template.max-kasp-db-size``
+ - ``template.journal-db-mode``
+
+- Silently ignored obsolete options:
+
+ - ``server.tcp-handshake-timeout``
+ - ``zone.disable-any``
+
+Zone backup and restore
+-----------------------
+
+The online backup format has changed slightly since 3.0 version. For zone-restore
+from backups in the previous format, it's necessary to set the *-f* option.
+Offline restore procedure of zone files from online backups is different than
+what it was before. The details are described in :ref:`Data and metadata backup`.
+
+Building notes
+--------------
+
+- The configure option ``--enable-xdp=yes`` has slightly changed its semantics.
+ It first tries to find an external library *libbpf*. If it's not detected,
+ the embedded one is used instead.
+- The kxdpgun tool also depends on library *libmnl*.
+
+Packaging
+---------
+
+Users who use module :ref:`geoip<mod-geoip>` or :ref:`dnstap<mod-dnstap>` might
+need installing an additional package with the module.
+
+.. _Upgrade 3.1.x to 3.2.x:
+
+Upgrade 3.1.x to 3.2.x
+======================
+
+Knot DNS version 3.2.x is functionally compatible with 3.1.x with the following
+exceptions.
+
+Configuration changes
+---------------------
+
+- Ignored obsolete option (with a notice log):
+
+ - ``server.listen-xdp``
+
+Utilities:
+----------
+
+- :doc:`knotc<man_knotc>` prints simplified zones status by default. Use ``-e``
+ for full output.
+- :doc:`keymgr<man_keymgr>` uses the brief key listing mode by default. Use ``-e``
+ for full output.
+- :doc:`keymgr<man_keymgr>` parameter ``-d`` was renamed to ``-D``.
+- :doc:`kjournalprint<man_kjournalprint>` parameter ``-c`` was renamed to ``-H``.
+
+Packaging
+---------
+
+- Linux distributions Debian 9 and Ubuntu 16.04 are no longer supported.
+
+- Packages for CentOS 7 are stored in a separate COPR repository
+ ``cznic/knot-dns-latest-centos7``.
+
+- Utilities :doc:`kzonecheck<man_kzonecheck>`, :doc:`kzonesign<man_kzonesign>`,
+ and :doc:`knsec3hash<man_knsec3hash>` are located in a new ``knot-dnssecutils``
+ package.
+
+Python
+------
+
+- Compatibility with Python 2 was removed.

+
+Knot DNS for BIND users
+=======================
+
+.. _Automatic DNSSEC signing:
+
+Automatic DNSSEC signing
+------------------------
+
+Migrating automatically signed zones from BIND to Knot DNS requires copying
+up-to-date zone files from BIND, importing existing private keys, and updating
+server configuration:
+
+1. To obtain current content of the zone which is being migrated,
+ request BIND to flush the zone into the zone file: ``rndc sync
+ example.com``.
+
+ .. NOTE::
+ If dynamic updates (DDNS) are enabled for the given zone, you
+ might need to freeze the zone before flushing it. That can be done
+ similarly::
+
+ $ rndc freeze example.com
+
+2. Copy the fresh zone file into the zones :ref:`storage<zone_storage>`
+ directory of Knot DNS.
+
+3. Import all existing zone keys into the KASP database. Make sure that all
+ the keys were imported correctly::
+
+ $ keymgr example.com. import-bind path/to/Kexample.com.+013+11111
+ $ keymgr example.com. import-bind path/to/Kexample.com.+013+22222
+ $ ...
+ $ keymgr example.com. list
+
+ .. NOTE::
+ If the server configuration file or database is not at the default location,
+ add a configuration parameter (-c or -C). See :doc:`keymgr<man_keymgr>`
+ for more info about required access rights to the key files.
+
+4. Follow :ref:`Automatic DNSSEC signing` steps to configure DNSSEC signing.
