…are seen after scheduling The ServiceBrowser query scheduling was sub-optimial because it would reschedule to query for a type when 75% of the ttl was expired, but if the type was seen before the timer expired we would send the query anyways which created more network traffic fixes #821

There was a problem hiding this comment.
We need another query scheduler test that interacts with a populated DNSCache before we can merge this
|
Was trying to fix this before the issue hit the 2 year mark, but out of time to write the test for today |
|
The integration test is going to need to set the test PTR record cache to be almost expired as its already way too complex and we don't want to test that there. We will pickup the coverage in the query scheduler tests |
|
The problem is we need two timers. Once for the regular "next_time" and one for "min_time_to_save_record" so reschedule only affects the second one and we already still do the next_time |
|
The downside is that if the network drops for a bit we might not refresh in time but thats probably not a problem since it will eventually recover |
