In addition, also our applications are hardcoding the interface names to be able to configure interfaces on demand. Switching to dynamic names is not realistic. After upgrading from 5.0_M3 to 5.0_M4 our wlan0 interface gets renamed by udev and thus networking breaks. Unlike our ethernet ports with names defined in device tree, wifi chip uses external vendor kernel module so I'm not sure if I'm able to configure a stable kernel name for it. Peter
