When rename_netif() failed for a reason other than -EBUSY (e.g. -EEXIST
because NAME= conflicts with an existing interface), the revert path
rewrote the on-disk udev database from dev_db_clone (the pre-rules
snapshot) and then returned the error. The caller in
udev_event_execute_rules() bailed out before reaching the final
device_update_db(dev), so every property the rules had attached to the
device during this event (including ENV{}= assignments made alongside
the failing NAME=) was silently dropped from /run/udev/data/.
Persist 'dev' from inside the revert block, after its syspath and
INTERFACE have been restored. The cloned snapshot is still written
first to clear ID_RENAMING/ID_PROCESSING; the subsequent dev write
keeps the rule-applied properties without resurrecting the new name.
Only persist when r < 0, since the -EBUSY path returns success and the
caller will write the DB itself.
Add a TEST-17-UDEV.rename-netif regression test that pre-creates the
rename target, then triggers rules that set three ENV{}= properties
(one on a rule line before the failing NAME=, one on the same line as
NAME=, and one on a rule line after) and asserts all three are still
visible via udevadm info on the source interface. The neighbouring
test_netif_renaming_conflict already exercises the same -EEXIST revert
path but only checks the SYSTEMD_ALIAS broadcast, which is why this
regression went unnoticed.
Verified against unpatched origin/main (b4aff10ac0): the new test
fails, udevadm reports only kernel-supplied fields for the source
interface, and /run/udev/data/n<ifindex> is 0 bytes. With this patch
applied all three properties survive regardless of whether they were
set before, on, or after the failing NAME= rule line.
Downstream impact (NetworkManager managing an interface that rules had
marked NM_UNMANAGED=1): https://redhat.atlassian.net/browse/RHEL-178481
