RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Runming Long 2018-12-29 02:33:36 UTC 
Description of problem:
The "use-vc" parameter did not show in the "man resolv.conf" page under the "options" parameter, reference other information and test the parameter by myself,  this parameter seems like work.

reference link: 

http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man5/resolv.conf.5.html

https://github.com/mkerrisk/man-pages/commit/7d9f4717fde0c60a07f5ce61cc0001a56b631bea

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
RHEL7.5 & 7.6
glibc-2.17-260.el7.x86_64

How reproducible:
man resolv.conf

Steps to Reproduce:
1. man resolv.conf
2.
3.

Actual results:
The "use-vc" parameter did not show in the "man resolv.conf" page under the "options" parameter,

Expected results:
add the "use-vc" parameter after glibc 2.14

Additional info:
The customer wanna resolving DNS names using TCP instead of UDP in my case(#02281123). according to my test results, this parameter is valid, but there is no information about this parameter in our man resolv.conf page.

# man resolv.conf
              no-tld-query (since glibc 2.14)
                     sets   RES_NOTLDQUERY   in   _res.options.    This   option    causes
                     res_nsearch()  to not attempt to resolve an unqualified name as if it
                     were a top level domain (TLD).  This option can cause problems if the
                     site  has  ``localhost'' as a TLD rather than having localhost on one
                     or more elements of the search list.  This option has  no  effect  if
                     neither RES_DEFNAMES or RES_DNSRCH is set.

              use-vc (since glibc 2.14)
                     sets  RES_USEVC in _res.options.  This option forces the usage of TCP
                     for DNS resolutions.

              no-reload (since glibc 2.26)
                     sets RES_NORELOAD in _res.options.  This  option  disables  automatic
                     reloading of a changed configuration file.
