Whatever happened to cause the NamePolicy messages to appear every n seconds. As noted previously by Martin Krafft, "I have not opted-in, but I also see the message all the time. Maybe opt-in isn't working as planned?".
Let's see what I would have to do to make these messages go away _and_ keep the persistent network names I have had in place for years: 1. Opt-in to inform systemd I plan to use the 'new' network naming policy via 'net.ifnames=1'. 2. Then keep my naming policy override in '/etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules' or 1. Opt-out via the kernel command line parameter 'net.ifnames=0' 2. Then keep my naming policy override in '/etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules' Either path I take requires a grub update to prevent log spam, and ostensibly solve an interface naming problem which has already been solved; a solution in search of a problem if you will. Aside from that, I can't see why the messages repeat so often. If I could control it I would. I'm looking in 'udev-builtin-net_setup_link.c' and I see the call to 'link_config_load' which emits the message, but don't understand why it does it over and over. Is there a way other the kernel parm to disable the link unit put there by '/lib/systemd/network/99-default.link'? Maybe delete it and systemctl daemon-reload or some such?
