fricklerupgrading the hwe kernel on 22.04 from 6.5.x to 6.8.x has lead to interface renames, which was a bit surprising for me, is this expected? seems to affect at least the i40e driver19:39
fricklerresult was loss of connectivity since the supposedly "persistent" interface names were being used in the netplan config19:40
ravageI think that's at least in the kernel release notes and the noble releases notes19:41
ravageWhich has the same version 19:42
ravageNot sure if there is anything on the HWE package notes19:42
fricklerravage: do you happen to have a pointer? at least I cannot find anything related in https://discourse.ubuntu.com/t/ubuntu-24-04-lts-noble-numbat-release-notes/3989019:48
ravageProbably because upgrades from 22.04 are not enabled yet19:48
ravageBut it's a good reminder to put that in the upgrade notes19:49
fricklerwell I didn't do an upgrade to 24.04, just an update of linux-image-generic-hwe-22.04 on a 22.04 server19:51
ravageYes which does the same kernel upgrade 19:51
ravageAnd for the release upgrade that will bite many more users in the backside19:52
fricklerbut isn't that a bit unstable for a stable LTS setup even now? or is that to be expected if one opts in for the hwe series?19:53
frickleranyway I'm out for today, thx for your updates19:53
ravageI guess you could add something to apt news yes19:54
arraybolt3frickler: if you're still around, are you able to say what the interface name was before the kernel upgrade and what it is now?20:06
arraybolt3(I know I just joined and shouldn't be able to see things before I joined but ravage pulled me in since I have Ubuntu developer connections to help fix things)20:06
ravagehe said he is out for today but hopefully can get some more information soon20:07
arraybolt3Also are you absolutely, 100% sure it's the kernel change that triggered it? I get that you may not be able to just reboot the server a bunch of times for debugging, but if it is possible to boot into the older kernel, record the interface name, then boot back into the newer kernel and see if that triggers a deterministic interface name change to the new name, that would be very helpful.20:07
arraybolt3ravage: kk, I'll stick around20:07
ravagebut it may explicitly be a problem with that driver20:08
ravageso that would be mainly a server problem20:09
ravagei dont think a lot of workstations have a 40 gbit port20:09
ravagehttps://github.com/D4M4EVER/Proxmox_Preserve_Network_Names20:12
ravagehas some of the name changes20:12
ravagealso maybe the script could be nice to be used in an upgrade20:13
ravagebut have not looked into it. creates some systemd files with the mac addresses 20:13
