[systemd-devel] Dracut ifname= and systemd naming schemes

[Thomas HUMMEL]

Hello,

Using systemd-udev-239-74 (RHEL 8.8), I wonder if, if one sets the 
ethernet device name with ifname=foobar:<mac address> passed to 
initialramfs (dracut) this name is at "risk" to be renamed in the real 
root fs according to systemd-udevd.service naming schemes and link name 
policy which, on RHEL 8.8. is NamePolicy=kernel database onboard slot path ?

I'm not sure about the 'keep' algorithm and if or when it's applied and 
which is the only thing which make me think the answer to my question 
would be 'no'

The idea is to know if one could drop into the real root fs a static 
network config referencing this device name initially set with ifname=

Thanks for your help
