Mention explicitly that only DNS names are supported so far, and while at it explain where the name is searched. Signed-off-by: Manuel Pégourié-Gonnard <[email protected]>

@gilles-peskine-arm @hanno-arm Do you think I should mention in the ChangeLog entry that the bug was introduced in 2.18.0? We don't usually include that kind of information, but in that case it could be useful to explain why there is no corresponding ChangeLog entry in the LTS branches. Wdyt? |
Exceptionally merging before the backports are approved, in order to unblock external contribution in #2906. |
I don't think it's particularly useful. It wouldn't be the first time we fix a bug that was introduced after the last LTS. There are precedents where we say this, but I'm sure there are precedents where we don't. If someone is concerned about this, they can look at the comments on the pull request. Since this is merged, let's let it be. |
Description
Fixes #3498 - only the bug part.
The other part of #3498 was a feature request, already addressed in #2906 - which will need to be rebased on this PR, or on development after this PR is merged.
Status
READY
Requires Backporting
Partial: the bug was introduced in 2.18.0, so it's not present in the LTS branches, but let's backport the new test just to be extra sure.
