search is only performed if the search or domain keyword is used in resolv.conf and the queried name has fewer than ndots dots. there is no default domain and names with >=ndots dots are never subjected to search; failure in the root scope is final. the (non-POSIX) res_search API presently does not honor search. this may be added at some point in the future if needed. resolv.conf is now parsed twice, at two different layers of the code involved. this will be fixed in a subsequent patch.
musl libc
musl, pronounced like the word "mussel", is an MIT-licensed
implementation of the standard C library targetting the Linux syscall
API, suitable for use in a wide range of deployment environments. musl
offers efficient static and dynamic linking support, lightweight code
and low runtime overhead, strong fail-safe guarantees under correct
usage, and correctness in the sense of standards conformance and
safety. musl is built on the principle that these goals are best
achieved through simple code that is easy to understand and maintain.
The 1.1 release series for musl features coverage for all interfaces
defined in ISO C99 and POSIX 2008 base, along with a number of
non-standardized interfaces for compatibility with Linux, BSD, and
glibc functionality.
For basic installation instructions, see the included INSTALL file.
Information on full musl-targeted compiler toolchains, system
bootstrapping, and Linux distributions built on musl can be found on
