Public bug reported:
I have a zesty system that uses systemd-resolved, as per default, which
also has dnsmasq configured for use on interface virbr0 for my libvirt
bridge.
This system is also part of a Kerberos realm. Recent versions of
Kerberos do a lookup of a URI RR, à la:
$ nslookup -q=URI _kerberos.dodds.net
Server: 127.0.0.53
Address: 127.0.0.53#53
Non-authoritative answer:
*** Can't find _kerberos.dodds.net: No answer
Authoritative answers can be found from:

There is no URI DNS record published for this domain, so the lack of
response is correct. However, systemd-resolved and dnsmasq then get in
a busy loop, passing the same query back and forth between each other.
(Confirmed with wireshark.)
If I query SRV records under the same domain (which is also part of what
kerberos does), these positive results are correctly returned to the
client, but systemd-resolved and dnsmasq again get into a busy loop.
If I query a URI record for a domain /other than/ what I have configured
as my DNS search domain, there is no busy loop.
If I query other kinds of records (whether they return results or not),
such as A, CNAME, and MX records, there is no busy loop.
/etc/resolv.conf looks like:
# Dynamic resolv.conf(5) file for glibc resolver(3) generated by resolvconf(8)
# DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE BY HAND -- YOUR CHANGES WILL BE OVERWRITTEN
# 127.0.0.53 is the systemd-resolved stub resolver.
# run "systemd-resolve --status" to see details about the actual nameservers.

I'm not sure where this bug lies. Both DNS servers are by design
configured not to cache results, in order to avoid cache poisoning and
information leaks, so neither DNS server can detect that they've already
asked for the record and don't need to recurse. I think it's probably a
bug for dnsmasq to be configured as a server for resolving 'dodds.net' -
I have nowhere specified that this is appropriate and this potentially
conflicts with legitimate records in this domain. But it also must be a
bug that SRV/URI records result in recursion but A/CNAME/MX records do
not.
