Description

There is NIC rename between openQA jobs. create_hdd_minimal_base+sdk [1] see eth0, so it creates config /etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-eth0. But some jobs (at least install_ltp on aarch64 [2] and maybe iscsi_ibft on intel [3]), which use this qcow2 image have eth1, so it fails due NIC not configured.

Workaround for this issue is to move LTP networks specific config [5] to some common place.

High priority as it breaks SLE15-SP2 testing on aarch64.

NOTE: previously it looked as yast bug (see https://bugzilla.suse.com/1157896)
NOTE: it looked wicked tests are also affected [4], but according to different tags at history it probably not.

As per our discussion, I still believe that this is a bug in a product, because configuring network with linuxrc is required for unattended installations only. So I would confirm if this regression is expected.

according to riafarov it's likely to be yast installer (or somewhere in between wicked and yast issue), continue tracking as https://bugzilla.suse.com/1157896 because

Hm, after finding, that openQA is to blame, it's obvious that fix cannot be in create_hdd_minimal_base+sdk, but in jobs after.
Do we want to fix root cause (force openQA to keep eth0 for jobs?) or use LTP workaround [5]?

If we decide to use workaround, where to put it? Ideally it should be run in each test. That'd probably require for modules to load sle15_workarounds.pm, which I wouldn't like (it's console test, which requires root-console because console tests uses needles) and also all tests which needs it would have to load this module :(.

Workaround ready: https://github.com/os-autoinst/os-autoinst-distri-opensuse/pull/9078

NOTE: this is just a workaround, better would be to force QEMU to always use eth0 (as a separate ticket).

Also tip from Jozef Pupava: trying to use DROP_PERSISTENT_NET_RULES=1

Hm, in the end it's udev thing (removing /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules with DROP_PERSISTENT_NET_RULES=1). Solved by @dzedro without needed code change: he added DROP_PERSISTENT_NET_RULES=1 to https://openqa.suse.de/tests/3666119 (create_hdd_minimal_base+sdk@aarch64-virtio) and then restarted install_ltp@ (https://openqa.suse.de/tests/3666153) which passed.

Closing https://github.com/os-autoinst/os-autoinst-distri-opensuse/pull/9078 and add going to add another PR where I remove LTP fallback code.
