Once this reaches daily builds
(https://www.debian.org/devel/debian-installer/), I'd very much appreciate
testing by others in live environments that use VLANs to confirm that I
didn't break anything. I don't use them routinely myself; I set up a test
environment so that I could connect a test laptop to a trunk port, but
there's always the possibility that I made mistakes in both the patch and my
test environment that cancelled each other out.
I think the “test laptop” bit increases the chance my hunch in #1143094
might be correct: you wouldn't have gotten a short name like ens3 there,
but something long-ish like enx00e04c680be4 or enx2e7cf2e89a52, hiding
the alignment/padding issue?
enp0s25 in my case, but yes, since it seems that the kernel uses %6s
here, that's long enough to hide the issue. Will fix, thanks!
This is fixed (hw-detect 1.177,
https://salsa.debian.org/installer-team/hw-detect/-/commit/f655fc230ce9668a5999c20ca3efa468a232d05b).
There's also a draft documentation patch up for review in
https://salsa.debian.org/installer-team/installation-guide/-/merge_requests/46.
