Hi! |
| 2 |
|
| 3 |
I'm running into problems combining network device hotplugging and udev |
| 4 |
network device renaming rules. |
| 5 |
|
| 6 |
Everything on its own works well: |
| 7 |
|
| 8 |
- I have a udev rule in /etc/udev/rules.d/... telling udev to rename an |
| 9 |
ethernet device based on its MAC address from say eth_old to eth_new. |
| 10 |
When I plug the device in its name it correctly changed by udev. |
| 11 |
|
| 12 |
- I have |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
rc_hotplug="net.eth_old !net.*" |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
in /etc/rc.conf. When I plug in the device it is automatically started |
| 17 |
and the dhcpcd client runs for it. |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
When I combine both by using |
| 20 |
|
| 21 |
rc_hotplug="net.eth_new !net.*" |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
then the device is renamed but no hotplugging occurs. When I use |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
rc_hotplug="net.eth_old !net.*" |
| 26 |
|
| 27 |
then OpenRC tries to start up eth_old but fails to do so, because it has |
| 28 |
already been renamed to eth_new. |
| 29 |
|

Am I missing something here? Any help? |
| 31 |
