Hello,
I have biosdevname-0.3.8-1.fc15.x86_64 on fedora 15 machine.

I see from
man biosdevname , that the name of the devices should be:
..
     em<port>
             for embedded NICs

      pci<slot>#<port>_<virtual instance>
             for cards in PCI slots
..

ifconfig shows I have em1, p2p1;
indded em1 is embedded NICs.
 However , the second nic is PCI nic. Why does it not defined as
pci<slot>#<port>?
is this some udev definition (some policy) which sets other names for
pci nics ?
any idea where this policy is defined and how can I choose a different policy ?


Have a look in the rpm and you'll see the rule file listed. p2 is pci slot 2 and p1 is port 1. Looks consistent to me.
