Title:
  ifconfig -s (or -a -s) only outputs 8 characters of the interface
  name, when interfaces are 10+ characters.

Status in net-tools package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in net-tools source package in Bionic:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  When executing ifconfig, it outputs the whole 10 characters of the
  interface name. However, when using ifconfig -s (or ifconfig -a -s) it
  doesn't include all the name of the interface (or 10+ characters).
  Instead, it outputs only 8 characters of the interface.
