how does the r:query parameter option:qtype? about lua-resty-dns

@zhangcunli I don't quite understand your issue. The whole library has no such thing as "cname_type":

agentzh@glass ~/git/lua-resty-dns 1 (master)$ grep cname_type -r .
agentzh@glass ~/git/lua-resty-dns 1 (master)$

@zhangcunli when you request an A record from the DNS server, but it doesn't have an A record, it might still reply with a CNAME record if that is available, usually in the additional section you'll find the records that the CNAME points to again.

This is pretty standard DNS behaviour.

Here's a typical example (redacted):

thijs$ dig thuis.tieske.nl

; <<>> DiG 9.10.6 <<>> thuis.tieske.nl
;; global options: +cmd
;; Got answer:
