systemd Predictable Interface Names no longer MAC policy by default
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The :oe_git:`systemd recipe </openembedded-core/tree/meta/recipes-core/systemd>`
used to forcibly set the "mac" policy by default when the ``pni-names``
:term:`distro feature <DISTRO_FEATURES>` is enabled.
This is no longer the case as this was not following upstream changes. Now when
the ``pni-names`` :term:`distro feature <DISTRO_FEATURES>` is enabled, the
default policy from systemd is selected (from
https://github.com/systemd/systemd/blob/v257.8/network/99-default.link).
To set back the "mac" policy in systemd (version 257.8 at the time of writing
this note), you should set the ``NamePolicy`` and ``AlternativeNamesPolicy`` as
detailed in :manpage:`systemd.link(5)`.
