+.Dt ACCF_DNS 9
+.Sh NAME
+.Nm accf_dns
+.Nd buffer incoming DNS requests until the whole first request is present
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+.Nm options INET
+.Nm options ACCEPT_FILTER_DNS
+.Nm kldload accf_dns
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+This is a filter to be placed on a socket that will be using
+.Fn accept
+to receive incoming connections.
+.Pp
+It prevents the application from receiving the connected descriptor via
+.Fn accept
+until a whole DNS request is available on the socket.
+It does this by reading the first two bytes of the request,
+to determine its size,
+and waiting until the required amount of data is available to be read.
+.Pp
+The
+.Fa ACCEPT_FILTER_DNS
+kernel option is also a module that can be enabled at runtime via
+.Xr kldload 8
+if the INET option has been compiled into the kernel.
+.Sh EXAMPLES
+If the
+.Nm
+module is available in the kernel,
+the following code will enable the DNS accept filter
+on a socket
+.Fa sok .
+.Bd -literal -offset 0i
+	struct accept_filter_arg afa;
+
+	bzero(&afa, sizeof(afa));
+	strcpy(afa.af_name, "dnsready");
+	setsockopt(sok, SOL_SOCKET, SO_ACCEPTFILTER, &afa, sizeof(afa));
