Description nnabavian 2016-12-16 18:17:36 UTC 
NetworkManager/Ping fails to resolve domain names, responds with "bad address".

This issue was seen on arm imx6 with ipv6.

By default NetworkManager.conf has set dns=dnsmasq
Although dnsmasq was not built as a part of the packages.

This issue was fixed by setting dns=none.

Also, the resolve.conf was a broken link.
This was fixed by reestablishing the symlink to the proper path.

ln -s /run/NetworkManager/resolv.conf /etc/resolv.conf


With theses changes NetworkManager was able to ping and resolve domains names.

Could you please submit config file which you used for it?
Comment 2 Carlos Santos 2019-08-10 23:23:38 UTC 
Closing, since the OP never provided the defconfig requested by Peter Vorel in comment #1.
