Title: netplan should consider adding more udev attribute for exact matching of failover 3-netdev interfaces Status in netplan: Triaged Status in netplan.io package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in systemd package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: This bug is a follow-up to https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1815268 after applying the 0001-net_failover-delay-taking-over-primary-device- to-acc.patch attached in that bug, the VF interface "eth0" is renamed to "rename4" instead of "ens4". Log is showing that attempt to rename "eth0" to "ens3" failed because of conflict with existing name, so that's why it ends up with rename4. vsbalakr@ubuntu-18:~$ uname -a Linux ubuntu-18 4.15.0-1009-oracle #11+lp1815268 SMP Tue Mar 12 15:20:15 UTC 2019 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux vsbalakr@ubuntu-18:~$ ip l 1: lo: <LOOPBACK,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 65536 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000 link/loopback 00:00:00:00:00:00 brd 00:00:00:00:00:00 2: ens3: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue state UP mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000 link/ether ba:fb:9f:12:2f:02 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff 3: ens3nsby: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast master ens3 state UP mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000 link/ether ba:fb:9f:12:2f:02 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff 4: rename4: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc mq master ens3 state UP mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000 link/ether ba:fb:9f:12:2f:02 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff vsbalakr@ubuntu-18:~$ egrep -i '(rename4|busy)' /var/log/syslog ...

So with regard to failover 3-netdev model, MAC address is not sufficient to serve as the key to identify individual interface. Unfortunately driver attribute is not sufficient either, the failover master and standy slave share the same driver under virtio_net. There should be other new attribute to introduce in order to correctly identify the interface belonging to 3-netdev.
