I am sorry, if I misunderstood your request.
I thought you were asking to be pointed to changes relevant to dhcpcd.
Since the DHCP client I tested on Rocky Linux is the ISC DHCP client, I
considered any patches for that client as irrelevant to dhcpcd (which
is not a fork of the ISC DHCP client, is it?).

Anyway, I tried to search for the Rocky Linux ISC DHCP client source
package. I am no Rocky Linux (Red Hat Enterprise Linux) expert, but I
think it's
<https://rockylinux.pkgs.org/9/rockylinux-baseos-x86_64/dhcp-client-4.4.2-19.b1.el9.x86_64.rpm.html>
The distro-specific patches seem to be collected in
<https://git.rockylinux.org/staging/rpms/dhcp/-/tree/r9/SOURCES>

Maybe the following patch is relevant?
<https://git.rockylinux.org/staging/rpms/dhcp/-/blob/r9/SOURCES/0005-Change-default-requested-options.patch>
I am not sure.

What I am sure is that dhcpcd (but also isc-dhcp-client) in Debian
failed to get the two search domains provided by the DHCP server in the
domain search list (DHCP option 119), while a Rocky Linux ISC DHCP
client and a Windows client correctly got the two search domains.

As far as I understand, isc-dhcp-client is EOL and will be removed from
Debian in the near future. So I would like to see dhcpcd-base fixed and
able to correctly handle DHCP option 119...

Please forward my bug report upstream, if this is an upstream issue.
Thanks for your kind assistance!
