Note that this drops ProtectProc=invisible from systemd-resolved.service. This is done because othewise access to the booted "kernel" command line is not necessarily available. That's because in containers we want to read /proc/1/cmdline for that. Fixes: #24103

|

<para><command>systemd-resolved</command> is a system service that provides network name resolution to

local applications. It implements a caching and validating DNS/DNSSEC stub resolver, as well as an LLMNR
|
||
and MulticastDNS resolver and responder. Local applications may submit network name resolution requests
|
||
via three interfaces:</para>

(such as link-local addressing, or LLMNR Unicode domains) cannot be mapped to the unicast DNS

provides a more limited resolver, that operates in "proxy" mode only, i.e. it will pass most DNS

messages relatively unmodified to the current upstream DNS servers and back, but not try to process the

<para>The lookup requests that <filename>systemd-resolved.service</filename> receives are routed to the

available DNS servers, LLMNR, and MulticastDNS interfaces according to the following rules:</para>

<itemizedlist>
|
||
<listitem><para>Names for which synthetic records are generated (the local hostname,
|
||
<literal>localhost</literal> and <literal>localdomain</literal>, local gateway, as listed in the

previous section) and addresses configured in <filename>/etc/hosts</filename> are never routed to the
|
||
network and a reply is sent immediately.</para></listitem>
|
||
|
||
<listitem><para>Single-label names are resolved using LLMNR on all local interfaces where LLMNR is
|
||
enabled. Lookups for IPv4 addresses are only sent via LLMNR on IPv4, and lookups for IPv6 addresses are
|
||
only sent via LLMNR on IPv6. Note that lookups for single-label synthesized names are not routed to
|
||
LLMNR, MulticastDNS or unicast DNS.</para></listitem>
|
||
|
||
<listitem><para>Queries for the address records (A and AAAA) of single-label non-synthesized names are
|
||
resolved via unicast DNS using search domains. For any interface which defines search domains, such
|
||
look-ups are routed to the servers defined for that interface, suffixed with each of those search
|
||
domains. When global search domains are defined, such look-ups are routed to the global servers. For
|
||
each search domain, queries are performed by suffixing the name with each of the search domains in
|
||
turn. Additionally, lookup of single-label names via unicast DNS may be enabled with the
|
||
<varname>ResolveUnicastSingleLabel=yes</varname> setting. The details of which servers are queried and
|
||
how the final reply is chosen are described below. Note that this means that address queries for
|
||
single-label names are never sent out to remote DNS servers by default, and resolution is only
|
||
possible if search domains are defined.</para></listitem>
|
||
|
||
<listitem><para>Multi-label names with the domain suffix <literal>.local</literal> are resolved using

MulticastDNS on all local interfaces where MulticastDNS is enabled. As with LLMNR, IPv4 address lookups

are sent via IPv4 and IPv6 address lookups are sent via IPv6.</para></listitem>
|

<listitem><para>Queries for multi-label names are routed via unicast DNS on local interfaces that have
|

a DNS server configured, plus the globally configured DNS servers if there are any. Which interfaces
|

are used is determined by the routing logic based on search and route-only domains, described below.
|
||
Note that by default, lookups for domains with the <literal>.local</literal> suffix are not routed to
|
||
DNS servers, unless the domain is specified explicitly as routing or search domain for the DNS server
|
||
and interface. This means that on networks where the <literal>.local</literal> domain is defined in a
|
||
site-specific DNS server, explicit search or routing domains need to be configured to make lookups work
|
||
within this DNS domain. Note that these days, it's generally recommended to avoid defining
|
||
<literal>.local</literal> in a DNS server, as <ulink
|
||
url="https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6762">RFC6762</ulink> reserves this domain for exclusive
|

MulticastDNS use.</para></listitem>
|

<listitem><para>Address lookups (reverse lookups) are routed similarly to multi-label names, with the

exception that addresses from the link-local address range are never routed to unicast DNS and are only

resolved using LLMNR and MulticastDNS (when enabled).</para></listitem>

</itemizedlist>
|

<para>If lookups are routed to multiple interfaces, the first successful response is returned (thus

effectively merging the lookup zones on all matching interfaces). If the lookup failed on all interfaces,

the last failing response is returned.</para>

<para>Routing of lookups is determined by the per-interface routing domains (search and route-only) and

<listitem><para>If a name to look up matches (that is: is equal to or has as suffix) any of the

configured routing domains (search or route-only) of any link, or the globally configured DNS settings,

"best matching" routing domain is determined: the matching one with the most labels. The query is then
|

sent to all DNS servers of any links or the globally configured DNS servers associated with this "best
|
||
matching" routing domain. (Note that more than one link might have this same "best matching" routing
|

domain configured, in which case the query is sent to all of them in parallel).</para>
|

|

<para>In case of single-label names, when search domains are defined, the same logic applies, except

that the name is first suffixed by each of the search domains in turn. Note that this search logic

doesn't apply to any names with at least one dot. Also see the discussion about compatibility with
|
||
the traditional glibc resolver below.</para></listitem>
|
||
|

<listitem><para>If a query does not match any configured routing domain (either per-link or global), it

is sent to all DNS servers that are configured on links with the <varname>DefaultRoute=</varname>

<para>The <varname>DefaultRoute=</varname> option is a boolean setting configurable with

determined based on the configured DNS domains for a link: if there's a route-only domain other than

|

<para>Effectively this means: in order to support single-label non-synthesized names, define appropriate

search domains. In order to preferably route all DNS queries not explicitly matched by routing domain

configuration to a specific link, configure a <literal>~.</literal> route-only domain on it. This will

ensure that other links will not be considered for these queries (unless they too carry such a routing

domain). In order to route all such DNS queries to a specific link only if no other link is preferred,
|
||
set the <varname>DefaultRoute=</varname> option for the link to true and do not configure a
|
||
<literal>~.</literal> route-only domain on it. Finally, in order to ensure that a specific link never

receives any DNS traffic not matching any of its configured routing domains, set the

<listitem><para>Some names are always resolved internally (see Synthetic Records above). Traditionally

they would be resolved by <filename>nss-files</filename> if provided in

<filename>/etc/hosts</filename>. But note that the details of how a query is constructed are under the
|
||
control of the client library. <filename>nss-dns</filename> will first try to resolve names using
|
||
search domains and even if those queries are routed to <filename>systemd-resolved</filename>, it will
|
||
send them out over the network using the usual rules for multi-label name routing <footnote><para>For
|

example, if <filename>/etc/resolv.conf</filename> has <programlisting>nameserver 127.0.0.53
|

search foobar.com barbar.com

fragility in both directions: a valid global name could be obscured by a local name, and resolution of

programs. This file may be symlinked from <filename>/etc/resolv.conf</filename> and is always kept

up-to-date, containing information about all known DNS servers. Note the file format's limitations: it
|

does not know a concept of per-interface DNS servers and hence only contains system-wide DNS server
|

definitions. Note that <filename>/run/systemd/resolve/resolv.conf</filename> should not be used

directly by applications, but only through a symlink from <filename>/etc/resolv.conf</filename>. If

this mode of operation is used local clients that bypass any local DNS API will also bypass

<command>systemd-resolved</command> and will talk directly to the known DNS servers.</para></listitem>
