`/lib/systemd/systemd-resolved`

## Description

`systemd-resolved` is a system service that manages network name resolution. It does so by generating `/run/systemd/resolve/resolv.conf`, which may be symlinked from `/etc/resolv.conf`. The contents is generated from the global settings in resolved.conf 5, the per-link static settings in `.network` files, and the per-link dynamic settings received over DHCP. See systemd.network 5 for more details.

Note that `/run/systemd/resolve/resolv.conf` should not be used directly, but only through a symlink from `/etc/resolv.conf`.
