Description

Maintainer: @ericluehrsen @BKPepe @hardfalcon
Environment: (put here arch, model, OpenWrt version)
Model | GL.iNet GL-MT1300
Architecture | MediaTek MT7621 ver:1 eco:3
Firmware Version | OpenWrt SNAPSHOT r21222+1-ceb1451c10 / LuCI Master git-22.312.55390-37468c9
Kernel Version | 5.15.77

Description:
unbound is not able to use DNS over TLS. Any request will generate the log error: SSL_write syscall: Connection reset by peer. This seems to be an arch-related problem. DoT was working in unbound 1.13.x

Config: unbound.txt

Research direction

Start with the attached unbound.txt configuration and reproduce a DNS-over-TLS request on the listed GL-MT1300 hardware and firmware. Compare behavior with unbound 1.13.x, where DoT worked, and the reported snapshot; done means DoT requests complete without the SSL_write connection-reset error.
