[Alkis Georgopoulos <1492546@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Public bug reported:

The unit /lib/systemd/system/ifup@.service is Debian and Ubuntu specific, it's not part of upstream systemd.
On shutdown, it unconditionally ifdowns all interfaces:
  ExecStop=/sbin/ifdown %I

This is a regression from previous init systems (sysvinit and upstart)
which cared so that when a network file system was in use, they didn't
ifdown the interfaces.

Specifically, both /etc/init.d/networking and /etc/init/networking contain these functions:
  check_network_file_systems()
  check_network_swaps()
which output the message "not deconfiguring network interfaces: network file systems still mounted" and exit.

So, please call the same functions in the ExecStop= part of
ifup@.service.
