FYI, if you don't bother opening the link, systemd-resolv sets the /etc/resolv.conf to have only 127.0.0.1 as a DNS server. You can see how things get bad when

  I guess it shouldn't be doing that? I mean, that also breaks in the case where you're running something like dnsmasq as your local resolver, which will also require 127.0.0.1 in your resolv.conf. As much as I'm not always comfortable with the larger complexity, the CoreDNS pod really needs to be doing something like the flowchart described in the article. If systemd-resolved or NetworkManager are in play, it should be using D-Bus to talk to them to get the information it needs. resolv.conf is an old idea that is too inflexible for today's DNS needs; a more complex solution with more complex interface is unfortunately warranted here.

Dnsmasq DNS support is redundant when you are running systemd-resolved. It can do everything dnsmasq does and more. > resolv.conf is an old idea that is too inflexible for today's DNS needs; a more complex solution with more complex interface is unfortunately warranted here. That's exactly what systemd-resolved is.
