Dear Maintainer,

    After upgrading a system from wheezy+backports to jessie,
udev/systemd-udev
(upgraded to systemd+newer udev) has stopped renaming ethernet interfaces
according to user-defined rules --- as contained in
rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules

Actual outcome / current result: udev assigns names sequentially, using
whatever default rules it has; from eth0 to eth9 in this system

Expected outcome: rules followed, interfaces renamed according to user
specification.

Extra information: running under Xen 4.4 / systemd 215
Snippet from rulefile included. Please note that we are using custom
interface names "teX" and "enX" and/or "giX" in addition to regular "ethX".
Actual MAC address prefixes changed to 'eui64prefN' for privacy reasons.

Which interface(s) specifically are not renamed?

According to your udev-database.txt, I see
eth0-eth3
te1
te2
gi1

So I'm confused about which interface apparently is not renamed

The ethernet interfaces were not renamed at boot, and left as eth0-eth9. During boot, systemd actually reported those names (eth0-eth9) when configuring networking. I renamed the interfaces manually using ifrename after boot in order to be able to use the machine -- in production right now

ISTM that this is related to #794969, though evidently not the same.
Just upgraded to 228-2 from stretch; Will reboot in the next available window to see if this fixes the issue.
  ... would need a backpatch to Jessie or backport in that case, I guess :S

Has happened with three out of three machines upgraded from wheezy *and* using custom eth interface names. Regular eth* interfaces (i.e. not renamed from the standard pattern) seem to not be affected.


Thank you, Michael.


Regards,

    / J.L.
