Package: udev
Version: 164-3
Severity: normal
Tags: squeeze
I've replaced my broken NIC with RTL-8169 (lspci ec 10 69 81), deleted 70
-persistent-net.rules, rebooted Linux.
udevd have not generated 70-persistent-net.rules file.
I'm running Linux on a "bare metal", so, bug 652660 is not the case for me.
The reason is either buggy driver (r8169) or buggy 75-persistent-net-
generator.rules file.
"75-persistent-net-generator.rules" thought, it's a "virtual interface", while
it's not.
# ignore interfaces without a driver link like bridges and VLANs, otherwise
# generate and write the rule
DRIVERS=="?*", IMPORT{program}="write_net_rules"
Driver should provide a "driver link", but it's not the reason to ignore this
interface by udevd.
If I replace (to test) the line with DRIVERS=="*",
IMPORT{program}="write_net_rules" - write_net_rules will be called & will
generate 70-persistent-net.rules file,
but it will also add DRIVERS=="?*", so, it will be unusable...
We can workaround it with "PHYSDEVDRIVER", containing "r8169".
