   .. attribute:: flags
   
      The flags for the answer, host byte order.
   
   .. attribute:: qdcount

      The answer section. Add up the RRs in every RRset to calculate
      the number of RRs, and the count for the dns packet. 
      The number of RRs in RRsets can change due to RRset updates.
   
   .. attribute:: ns_numrrsets

         (:class:`rrset_ref`) Packed array of ids (see counts) and pointers to packed_rrset_key.
         The number equals ancount + nscount + arcount RRsets. 
         These are sorted in ascending pointer, the locking order. So
         this list can be locked (and id, ttl checked), to see if 
         all the data is available and recent enough.
   

dns_msg
--------------

.. class:: dns_msg

   This class provides these data attributes:

   .. attribute:: dname
   
      The domain name. If not empty (for ``id = None``) it is allocated, and
      contains the wireformat domain name. This dname is not canonicalized.
      E.g., the dname contains \\x03www\\x03nic\\x02cz\\x00 for www.nic.cz.
   
   .. attribute:: dname_len
   
      Length of the domain name, including last 0 root octet.

      The rrset class in display presentation format.

ub_packed_rrset_key
-------------------------

.. class:: ub_packed_rrset_key

   This structure contains an RRset. A set of resource records that
   share the same domain name, type and class.
   Due to memory management and threading, the key structure cannot be
   deleted, although the data can be. The id can be set to 0 to store and the
   structure can be recycled with a new id.
   
   The :class:`ub_packed_rrset_key` provides these data attributes:
   
   .. attribute:: entry
      
      (:class:`lruhash_entry`) Entry into hashtable. Note the lock is never destroyed,
      even when this key is retired to the cache. 
      the data pointer (if not None) points to a :class:`packed_rrset`.
    
   .. attribute:: id
      
      The ID of this rrset. unique, based on threadid + sequenceno. 
      ids are not reused, except after flushing the cache.
      zero is an unused entry, and never a valid id.
      Check this value after getting entry.lock.
      The other values in this struct may only be altered after changing
      the id (which needs a writelock on entry.lock).
      
   .. attribute:: rk
   
      (:class:`packed_rrset_key`) RR set data.


lruhash_entry
-------------------------

.. class:: lruhash_entry

   The :class:`ub_packed_rrset_key` provides these data attributes:

   .. attribute:: lock

      rwlock for access to the contents of the entry. Note that you cannot change hash and key, if so, you have to delete it to change hash or key.

   .. attribute:: data

      (:class:`packed_rrset_data`) entry data stored in wireformat (RRs and RRsigs).

packed_rrset_data
-----------------------
   
.. class:: packed_rrset_data

   Rdata is stored in wireformat. The dname is stored in wireformat.
   
   TTLs are stored as absolute values (and could be expired).
   
   RRSIGs are stored in the arrays after the regular rrs.
   
   You need the packed_rrset_key to know dname, type, class of the
   resource records in this RRset. (if signed the rrsig gives the type too).

   The :class:`packed_rrset_data` provides these data attributes:

   .. attribute:: ttl
   
      TTL (in seconds like time()) of the RRset.
      Same for all RRs see rfc2181(5.2).
   
   .. attribute:: count
      
      Number of RRs.
   
   .. attribute:: rrsig_count
      
      Number of rrsigs, if 0 no rrsigs.
      
   .. attribute:: trust
   
      The trustworthiness of the RRset data.
      
   .. attribute:: security
   
      Security status of the RRset data. See sec_status\_ predefined constants.
      
   .. attribute:: rr_len[]
   
      Length of every RR's rdata, rr_len[i] is size of rr_data[i].
      
   .. attribute:: rr_ttl[]
   
      TTL of every rr. rr_ttl[i] ttl of rr i.
      
   .. attribute:: rr_data[]
   
      Array of RR's rdata (list of strings). The rdata is stored in uncompressed wireformat. 
      The first 16B of rr_data[i] is rdlength in network format.
   

DNSMessage
----------------
   
.. class:: DNSMessage

   Abstract representation of DNS message.
   
   **Usage**

      This example shows how to create an authoritative answer response
		
      ::

         msg = DNSMessage(qstate.qinfo.qname_str, RR_TYPE_A, RR_CLASS_IN, PKT_AA)

         #append RR
         if (qstate.qinfo.qtype == RR_TYPE_A) or (qstate.qinfo.qtype == RR_TYPE_ANY):
             msg.answer.append("%s 10 IN A 127.0.0.1" % qstate.qinfo.qname_str)
         
         #set qstate.return_msg 
         if not msg.set_return_msg(qstate):
             raise Exception("Can't create response")

   The :class:`DNSMessage` provides these methods and data attributes:
   
   .. method:: __init__(self, rr_name, rr_type, rr_class = RR_CLASS_IN, query_flags = 0, default_ttl = 0)
   
      Prepares an answer (DNS packet) from given information. Query flags are combination of PKT_xx constants.
      
   .. method:: set_return_msg(self, qstate)
   
      This method fills qstate return message according to the given informations. 
		It takes lists of RRs in each section of answer, created necessary RRsets in wire format and store the result in :attr:`qstate.return_msg`.
		Returns 1 if OK.
   
   .. attribute:: rr_name
   
      RR name of question.
