The actual call to dhcpcd is in /lib/rcscripts/net/dhcpcd.sh. But you
really don't want to edit that script.
You should read /etc/conf.d/net.example.
If you *really* want direct control over the dhcpcd options:
-------
# For passing custom options to dhcpcd use something like the following. This
# example reduces the timeout for retrieving an address from 60 seconds (the
# default) to 10 seconds.
#dhcpcd_eth0="-t 10"
------
But, probably what you really want is the generic "nodns" option:
------
# GENERIC DHCP OPTIONS
# Set generic DHCP options like so
#dhcp_eth0="release nodns nontp nonis nogateway nosendhost"
# This tells the dhcp client to release it's lease when it stops, not to
# overwrite dns, ntp and nis settings, not to set a default route and not to
# send the current hostname to the dhcp server and when it starts.
# You can use any combination of the above options - the default is not to
# use any of them.
------
