There was a new kernel update today/last night (9-19-2019) and it seems my servers' interface names reverted from ens0p0 to the old eth0 format. I don't have the predictable network interface names disabled in my grub startup parameters so why would it have reverted?

Thanks!
 
Derp I'm dumb, looks like I transferred a systemd network config file of /etc/systemd/network/99-default.link into the server with the contents:
Code:
[Match]
Path=/devices/virtual/net/*

[Link]
NamePolicy=kernel database onboard slot path
MACAddressPolicy=none
Removing that and rebuilding the initramfs resolved the issue.
Thanks @lhorace for the help!
