Certain cards support to set their eswitch to switchdev mode. In this
mode for each created VF there is also created so called VF representor.
This representor is helper network interface used for configuration of
mentioned eswitch and belongs to an appropriate PF.
VF representors are identified by the specific value of phys_port_name
attribute and the value has format "pfMvfN" where M is PF function
number and N is VF number inside this PF.
As the VF representor interfaces belong to PF PCI device the naming
scheme used for them is the same like for other PCI devices. In this
case name of PF interface is used and phys_port_name suffix is appended.
E.g.
PF=enp65s0f0np0 # phys_port_name for PF interface is 'p0'
VF=enp65s0f0np0v0 # v0 is appended for VF0 in case of NAMING_SR_IOV_V
REP=enp65s0f0np0pf0vf0 # phys_port_name for VF0 representor is 'pf0vf0'
First as the phys_port_name for representors is long (6+ chars) then the
generated name does not fit into IFNAMSIZ so this name is used only as
alternate interface name and for the primary one is used generic one
like eth<N>. Second 'f0' and 'pf0' in REP name is redundant.
This patch fixes this issue by introducing another naming scheme for VF
representors and appending 'rN' suffix to PF interface name for them.
N is VF number so the name used for representor interface is similar to
VF interface and differs only by the suffix.
For the example above we get:
PF=enp65s0f0np0
VF=enp65s0f0np0v0
REP=enp65s0f0np0r0
This eases for userspace to determine which representor interface
represents particular VF.

To support predictable interface names in various embeeded systems
add support for an additional naming scheming using the USB host
interface. Several asics have usb controllers that are platform
devices and not children of a pci interface. These embedded systems
should be able to enumerate interfaces by udev path as well to support
configurations and policies.

Devicetree firmware contains an "aliases" node, containing various
aliases for devices described by the firmware. For ethernet devices,
these are named "ethernet0", "ethernet1", etc. They provide a convenient
means of numbering ethernet devices, especially on systems with no other
stable number other than the address. In particular, U-Boot already uses
these aliases to name its ethernet devices.
Previously, there have been attempts (such as [1]) to add support for
these aliases to Linux. However, these patches have been rejected
because it is the maintainers' view that naming policy be left to
userspace. Well, systemd is userspace, so here we are.
In terms of implementation, apparently there can be multiple device
trees at once. I have decided to dodge this problem for now, and just
use /proc/device-tree. If it is desired to support multiple device trees
later, then the scheme can be modified to include the device tree's
index. For example, /sys/firmware/devicetree/base2/aliases/ethernet3
might be named enb2d3.
For the moment we only support "ethernetX" aliases. Future patches might
want to also handle "canX" and "wifiX".
It is common on boards with only one ethernet device to use an alias of
just "ethernet". In this case, the index is an implicit 0. In case the
author of the firmware made a mistake, we check to ensure that aliases
of "ethernet" and "ethernet0" do not both exist.

If we have two or more devices that share the same slot but they are
also multifunction then it is OK to use the slot information even if it
is the same for all of them. Name conflict will be avoided because we
will append function number and form names like, ens1f1, ens1f2...
Those devices show up as /sys/devices/vif-N, let's use that number
to name them enXN.
Without this, all schemes fail and they keep the kernel names, which can
be racy.

The maximum allowed value of the sysfs device index entry was limited to
16383 (2^14-1) to avoid the generation of unreasonable onboard interface
names.
For s390 the index can assume a value of up to 65535 (2^16-1) which is
now allowed depending on the new naming flag NAMING_16BIT_INDEX.
Larger index values are considered unreasonable and remain to be
ignored.
The s390 PCI driver assigns the hotplug slot name from the
function_id attribute of the PCI device using a 8 char hexadecimal
format to match the underlying firmware/hypervisor notation.
Further, there's always a one-to-one mapping between a PCI
function and a hotplug slot, as individual functions can
hot plugged even for multi-function devices.
As the generic matching code will always try to parse the slot
name in /sys/bus/pci/slots as a positive decimal number, either
a wrong value might be produced for ID_NET_NAME_SLOT if
the slot name consists of decimal numbers only, or none at all
if a character in the range from 'a' to 'f' is encountered.
Additionally, the generic code assumes that two interfaces
share a hotplug slot, if they differ only in the function part
of the PCI address. E.g., for an interface with the PCI address
dddd:bb:aa.f, it will match the device to the first slot with
an address dddd:bb:aa. As more than one slot may have this address
for the s390 PCI driver, the wrong slot may be selected.
To resolve this we're adding a new naming schema version with the
flag NAMING_SLOT_FUNCTION_ID, which enables the correct matching
of hotplug slots if the device has an attribute named function_id.
The ID_NET_NAME_SLOT property will only be produced if there's
a file /sys/bus/pci/slots/<slotname> where <slotname> matches
the value of /sys/bus/pci/devices/.../function_id in 8 char
hex notation.

v246 is long released. Hence the new scheme should be named v247.
(Interesting, how we pretty systematically for the last releases changed
the scheme only every second release)
This is for 6d36464065. It turns out that this is causing more problems than
expected. Let's retroactively introduce naming scheme v241 to conditionalize
this change.
Follow-up for #12792 and 6d36464065. See also

This is in preparation for later changes. Let's change the documentation of
net.naming-scheme= to also say that it applies to MAC addresses. This commit
doesn't actually implement that though.
The comment in udev-builtin-net_id.c (removed in grandparent commit) showed the
property without the prefix. I assume that was always the intent, because it
doesn't make much sense to concatenate anything to an arbitrary user-specified
field.
I decided to make this a separate man page because it is freakin' long.
This content could equally well go in systemd-udevd.service(8), systemd.link(5),
or a new man page for the net_id builtin.
v2:
- rename to systemd.net-naming-scheme
- add udevadm test-builtin net_id example
