 I recently upgraded a linux/64 box to

	uname -rm
		5.4.6-24.ge5f8301-default x86_64

For 'ages' prior, I've had two functional Eth interfaces on it

	inxi -n
(1)		Network:   Card-1: Realtek RTL8111/8168/8411 PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet Controller driver: r8169
		           IF: eth0 state: down mac: 18:d6:c7:01:15:11
(2)		           Card-2: Realtek RTL8111/8168/8411 PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet Controller driver: r8169
		           IF: enp3s0 state: up speed: 1000 Mbps duplex: full mac: 00:52:35:50:44:04

where (2)'s the Mobo ETH, and (1)'s an ETH PCI-e card

Both expect/use the same driver,

	lspci -tv | grep -i eth
		+-04.0-[02]----00.0  Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8111/8168/8411 PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet Controller
		+-06.0-[03]----00.0  Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8111/8168/8411 PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet Controller


The driver's up

	lsmod | grep 8169
		r8169                  94208  0
		libphy                 98304  2 r8169,realtek

provided by

	rpm -q --whatprovides /lib/modules/5.4.6-24.ge5f8301-default/kernel/drivers/net/ethernet/realtek/r8169.ko
		kernel-default-5.4.6-24.1.ge5f8301.x86_64

the cards are available,

I've had reliable naming enabled

	cat /proc/cmdline
		... net.ifnames=1 biosdevname=0 

and the two interfaces, Mobo & PCI, _had_ always appeared as enp2s0 & enp3s0

with current kernel,

	uname -rm
		5.4.6-24.ge5f8301-default x86_64

The TPLINK PCI card no longer comes up as an 'en*'-named card, per

	https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/systemd.net-naming-scheme.html

but rather, incorrectly (?), as 'eth0'

	hwinfo --netcard | egrep -i "Ethernet controller|Driver|addr|Model:|Device:|Device file"

		  Model: "Realtek RTL8111/8168 PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet controller"

		  SubDevice: pci 0x8168 "RTL8111/8168 PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet controller"
		  Driver: "r8169"
		  Driver Modules: "r8169"
		  Device File: enp3s0
		  HW Address: 00:52:35:50:44:04
		  Permanent HW Address: 00:52:35:50:44:04

noting,

	ls -1 /sys/class/net/
		enp3s0@
		eth0@
		lo@ 

in `dmesg`

	dmesg | egrep -i "eth|enp"

Something's changed -- as both interfaces used to be properly named per reliable-naming standard.

I _can_ bring up the network on the Mobo's renamed enp3s0 interface ... but no longer on the PCI card.

I'm not clear on why one interface IS using the reliable-naming scheme, and the other is NOT.

Any hints/clues as to the problem &/or a fix?
