net: fail fast for DNS rcode success with no answers of requested type
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
DNS responses which do not contain answers of the requested type return
errNoSuchHost, the same error as rcode name error. Prior to
golang.org/cl/37879, both cases resulted in no additional name servers
being consulted for the question. That CL changed the behavior for both
cases. Issue golang#25336 was filed about the rcode name error case and
golang.org/cl/113815 fixed it. This CL fixes the no answers of requested
type case as well.

Fixes golang#27525
