[Dnsmasq-discuss] [Patch] dnsmasq biased round robin for new requests

[harish badrinath]

Hello,
I have attached a patch to change the way upstream nameservers are
selected for new DNS resolution requests. This patch essentially gives
a new command line option that prefers nameservers in resolv.conf
(probably given by a DHCP server) and uses ( probably third party DNS
server) specified by -S as a last resort for every new incoming
request.

Hope this a feature, worthy of addition to dnsmasq. Feedback/critique
is welcome. I have attached a patch taken again dnsmasq-2.57 tarball.

Regards,
Harish Badrinath
