Hi!
I have faced with a problem that eth0 is not initialized always at boot. I
have traced the problem and now it seems that networkmanager (possibly??)
ignores/does not notice udev add events.
Ifconfig reports then only lo interface that is coming from
/etc/network/interfaces.

Only following two lines related to eth0/ethernet are present in journal
when problem hits:
Jan 10 15:04:31 cpr3 kernel[437]: [    1.061954] cpsw 4a100000.ethernet:
Detected MACID = 50:72:24:bf:89:f0
Jan 10 15:04:31 cpr3 kernel[437]: [    1.068965] cpsw 4a100000.ethernet:
cpts: overflow check period 850

Then /sys/class/net/eth0 provides following responses:
# cat /sys/class/net/eth0/carrier
cat: read error: Invalid argument
# cat /sys/class/net/eth0/uevent
INTERFACE=eth0
IFINDEX=2
So, carrier is not initialized, but there has beed uevent add event!

However, following lines get journaled from eth0/ethernet when everything
is fine:
Jan 10 15:04:34 cpr3 kernel[578]: [    1.061927] cpsw 4a100000.ethernet:

Then /sys/class/net/eth0 provides following responses:
cat /sys/class/net/eth0/carrier
1
# cat /sys/class/net/eth0/uevent
INTERFACE=eth0
IFINDEX=2

I iserted /etc/udev/scripts/network.sh debug printing from every event and
it looks lit it prints both lo and eth0 interfaces at every boot.

What else/where could I check check?

I'm running linux kernel version 4.4/networkmanager 1.0.10 on am335x based
board.

Thanks,
Matti
