Rewritten whenever a\n# machine joins or leaves, which is why the service below restarts on it: a\n# reload makes dnsmasq re-read hosts files, not its configuration, and a\n# wildcard is configuration.\nconf-file=/etc/mesh-resolver/nodes.conf\n\n# Where it answers. Both are names the mesh chose, so this file needs to know\n# nothing about this particular machine:\n#\n# mesh0 the private network, so anything on it can ask — including\n# this machine's containers. This module writes the runtime's\n# `dns` key into its own configuration file, beside whatever the\n# machine had there (novox/hq ADR 0102), naming this address: a\n# container cannot reach the machine's loopback, and a runtime\n# whose host resolves at loopback falls back to a public resolver\n# and never sees a mesh name. The runtime reads that key when it\n# starts and not on a reload, and a restart stops every container\n# on the machine, so this module orders neither: the key holds for\n# every container created after the runtime next starts. On the\n# machine this replaces the predecessor wrote the same value, so\n# nothing there is waiting on it.\n# 127.0.0.1 this machine's own use. The predecessor's resolver answered\n# here, and the resolv.conf it wrote on every machine says so;\n# that file stays in force on an adopted machine until the mesh's\n# module for it is taken, so the resolver has to answer where the\n# machine already asks or the machine loses DNS the moment this\n# module is taken. Not .53 or .54: systemd-resolved holds BOTH —\n# .53 is its stub and .54 its proxy stub — and neither is .1, so\n# the two coexist on a machine that runs it. This module used to\n# answer on 127.0.0.55 instead: a convention of its own, beside\n# the one every machine already followed. One address, this one,\n# and the modules that point a machine at the mesh name the same.\n#\n# Whatever address it listens on, it takes the machine's DNS port.\n# That is why this module claims `the-dns-port`.\n#\n# bind-dynamic rather than bind-interfaces: mesh0 does not exist until the\n# machine is on the private network, and binding an interface that is not there\n# yet fails to start rather than waiting for it.\nbind-dynamic\ninterface=mesh0\nlisten-address=127.0.0.1\n\n# **It must never read resolv.conf to find out where to forward.** Whatever\n# points this machine at the mesh writes this resolver's own address there — so\n# a resolver that read it for upstreams would find itself, and every query it\n# could not answer locally would loop until its receive queue filled. That is\n# not theoretical: it filled with 15KB of queries and every lookup on the\n# machine hung. no-resolv is what makes that loop impossible: the upstreams are\n# the two lines below, and nothing on the machine can redirect them.\n#\n# It forwards, because it is now asked for everything. The module that points\n# this machine at the mesh names this resolver alone — as the predecessor's\n# did — so the host and every container resolve the world through it.
