Public bug reported:

I haven't verified this, but I believe that ifupdown works through udevadm 
hooks.
So udevadm hotplug event -> ifup eth0.
Any subprocesses of a udevadm hook will be restricted by the 
systemd-udevd.service
restrictions, which currently are
   RestrictAddressFamilies=AF_UNIX AF_NETLINK AF_INET AF_INET6

We found this when playing with udevamd hooks to bring up network
devices on cosmic (netplan).
