You do not really control it any more than the kernel. The fact that me and you can edit an udev ruleset to "control" it, does not mean that most users see it as a black box. The news item reads better. I would still either avoid showing the NET_PATH example or describe that that is not the final result because on a laptop, NET_PATH almost certainly will *not* match the final interface name: flame@saladin~ % udevadm test-builtin net_id /sys/class/net/eno1 2>/dev/null ID_NET_NAME_MAC=enx0026b9d7bf1f ID_OUI_FROM_DATABASE=Dell Inc ID_NET_NAME_ONBOARD=eno1 ID_NET_LABEL_ONBOARD=en Onboard LAN ID_NET_NAME_PATH=enp0s25 And I would not expect users to all go read the wiki and try to figure out why you said it would be named enp0s25 when it gets the name eno1. -- Diego Elio Pettenò — Flameeyes flamee...@flameeyes.eu — http://blog.flameeyes.eu/
