/* Upcall routine, designed to work as a key type and working through

 *   The upcall wrapper used to make an arbitrary DNS query.
 *
 *   This function requires the appropriate userspace tool dns.upcall to be
 *   installed and something like the following lines should be added to the
 *   /etc/request-key.conf file:
 *
 *	create dns_resolver * * /sbin/dns.upcall %k
 *
 *   For example to use this module to query AFSDB RR:
 *
 *	create dns_resolver afsdb:* * /sbin/dns.afsdb %k

/**
 * dns_query - Query the DNS
 * @type: Query type (or NULL for straight host->IP lookup)
 * @name: Name to look up
 * @namelen: Length of name
 * @options: Request options (or NULL if no options)
 * @_result: Where to place the returned data.
 * @_expiry: Where to store the result expiry time (or NULL)
 *
 * The data will be returned in the pointer at *result, and the caller is
 * responsible for freeing it.
 *
 * The description should be of the form "[<query_type>:]<domain_name>", and
 * the options need to be appropriate for the query type requested.  If no
 * query_type is given, then the query is a straight hostname to IP address
 * lookup.
 *
 * The DNS resolution lookup is performed by upcalling to userspace by way of
 * requesting a key of type dns_resolver.
 *
 * Returns the size of the result on success, -ve error code otherwise.
