Hello Stephen, or anyone else affected,

Accepted systemd into trusty-proposed. The package will build now and be
available at http://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/systemd/204-5ubuntu20.8
in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package.  See
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to
enable and use -proposed.  Your feedback will aid us getting this update
out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug,
mentioning the version of the package you tested, and change the tag
from verification-needed to verification-done. If it does not fix the
bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to
verification-failed.  In either case, details of your testing will help
us make a better decision.

Title:
  [SRU] Add Microsoft-owned MAC address to 75-persistent-net-
  generator.rules

Status in “systemd” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in “udev” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid
Status in “udev” source package in Precise:
  In Progress
Status in “systemd” source package in Trusty:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  Impact: As Microsoft expands its public cloud offering it may need to
  utilize additional MAC address prefixes.  If a user launches a Cloud
  instance when the MAC address is from a Microsoft-owned MAC address
  that is not in the exclusion list, eth0 is persistently named for the
  first NIC seen. If a user rebundles, or the machines has its MAC
  address changed (e.g. VM resize or VM is moved to another host), it
  will lose network connectivity.

  Fix:  Please add the following Microsoft-owned MAC address to the 75
  -persistent-net-generator.rules file:

       00:25:ae  Microsoft Corporation

  Test Case :
   - Launch Hyper-V VM with MAC address with prefix 00:25:ae
   - Install updated Udev/systemd
   - Delete any existing udev rule
   - Reboot and confirm that no new UDEV rule was added
