Public bug reported:

I'm running cloud-init 23.1.1 on a rockylinux 9 virtual machine (running
on Proxmox VE) with network-manager renderer.

The cloud-init network-config file is:

version: 1
config:
    - type: physical
      name: eth0
      mac_address: '62:04:02:7b:34:a0'
      subnets:
      - type: static
        address: '172.18.7.1'
        netmask: '255.255.254.0'
        gateway: '172.18.7.254'
    - type: nameserver
      address:
      - '192.84.134.50'
      - '192.84.134.55'
      search:
      - 'na.infn.it'

Inside the VM base image I have, in /etc/cloud/cloud.cfg:

system_info:
   network:
      renderers: ['network-manager']
      activators: ['network-manager']

When I start the VM, everything works fine and the renderer creates the
correct NIC config file: /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/cloud-
init-eth0.nmconnection:

# Generated by cloud-init. Changes will be lost.

[connection]
id=cloud-init eth0
uuid=1dd9a779-d327-56e1-8454-c65e2556c12c
type=ethernet

[user]
org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.origin=cloud-init

[ethernet]
mac-address=62:04:02:7B:34:A0

[ipv4]
method=manual
may-fail=false
address1=172.18.7.1/23
gateway=172.18.7.254


The problem is that /etc/resolv.conf is not correctly configured with my
DNS servers:

# cat /etc/resolv.conf

# Generated by NetworkManager
search na.infn.it


Digging into /usr/lib/python3.9/site-packages/cloudinit/net/network_manager.py it seems to me that networ-manager renderer only adds DNS servers if specified in NIC configuration (i.e. in a "subnets" section of the yaml network-config file).
Those specified under "type: nameserver" get ignored.

Not sure if this is a bug or it's the expected behavior.
Could you please clarify ?

Thanks
