I think it may be a bit premature to drop it from RHEL9. We need the udev parts of systemd-network-generator.service. This is also reported against OpenShift in JIRA in https://issues.redhat.com/browse/OCPBUGS-12867 I opened two upstream issues related to this (sorry I didn't see this bug first): - systemd-network-generator support for ip=NIC:dhcp,dhcp6 - https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/27944 - network-generator: split out udev pieces from systemd-network-generator - https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/27945 |
