--- Begin Message ---Package: udev Version: 233-10 Severity: wishlist Hi. Some possible improvements: 1) README.Debian, mentions: /lib/systemd/network/01-mac-for-usb.link however this seems to no longer exist. 2) Also it mentions "on VMs remove the file /etc/udev/rules.d/80-net-setup-link.rules instead". Is this still up to date? I've checked a number of legacy installations (i.e. such that had /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules), with different KVM and VMware and non of them had such file generated. 3) As for the "new" stable interface naming. While I've never observed any real issues with the old way of doing it, I see the points why this was done and don't really care on the name of the my interfaces. There is however at least one scneario, where the new path-based naming makes troubles: If I take my large computing and storage clusters at the university, it doesn't really happen that often that a network card breaks, is replaced (at the same location) and then things work out of the box, without having to change the MAC in some udev rule. Actually the bigger server vendors seem to send you replacements with the same MACs than one had before. What I do however have is many bunches of nodes from different vendors or different generations in which the position is different, and thus I get different names. I do however want to have the primary network card have the same name accross the whole cluster (whether it's eth0 or foobar), which brings one back to the MAC based way of naming, I guess, especially since these servers all typically have n NICs ... e.g. 2 "good" 10 GbEs and 4 on-board 1GbEs. Now README.Debian already gives example how to do that with an udev rule... even as "first" way, but it gives no example on doing it the systemd-way, which is AFAIU with a .link file, isn't it? So perhaps for the custom naming, tell people how they can convert their old 70-persistent-net.rule to a .link file first (before the udev way) andgive an example like: [Match] MACAddress=11:22:aa:bb:cc:33 [Link] Name=eth0 Which, AFAIU, is the intended way of doing it? Cheers, Chris.

[ Michael Biebl ] * New upstream version 234 - tmpfiles: Create /var/log/lastlog if it does not exist. (Closes: #866313) - network: Bridge vlan without PVID. (Closes: #859941) * Rebase patches * Switch build system from autotools to meson. Update the Build-Depends accordingly. * Update fsckd patch for meson * udev autopkgtest: no longer install test-udev binary manually. This is now done by the upstream build system. * Update symbols file for libsystemd0 * Update lintian override for systemd-tests. Upstream now installs manual and unsafe tests in subdirectories of /usr/lib/systemd/tests/, so ignore those as well. * Bump Standards-Version to 4.0.0 * Change priority of libnss-* packages from extra to optional. * Use UTF-8 locale when building the package. Otherwise meson will be pretty unhappy when trying to process files with unicode characters. Use C.UTF-8 as this locale is pretty much guaranteed to be available everywhere. * Mark test-timesync as manual. The test tries to setup inotify watches for /run/systemd/netif/links which fails in a buildd environment where systemd is not active. * Do not link udev against libsystemd-shared. We ship udev in a separate binary package, so can't use libsystemd-shared, which is part of the systemd binary package. * Avoid requiring a "kvm" system group. This group is not universally available and as a result generates a warning during boot. As kvm is only really useful if the qemu package is installed and this package already takes care of setting up the proper permissions for /dev/kvm, drop this rule from 50-udev-default.rules. . [ Martin Pitt ] * udev README.Debian: Update transitional rules and mention *.link files. - 01-mac-for-usb.link got replaced with 73-usb-net-by-mac.rules - /etc/systemd/network/50-virtio-kernel-names.link is an upgrade transition for VMs with virtio - Describe *.link files as a simpler/less error prone (but also less flexible) way of customizing interface names.
