* systemd-udevd.service is now run in a Seccomp-based sandbox that
prohibits access to AF_INET and AF_INET6 sockets and thus access to
the network. This might break code that runs from udev rules that
tries to talk to the network. Doing that is generally a bad idea and
unsafe due to a variety of reasons. It's also racy as device
management would race against network configuration. It is
recommended to rework such rules to use the SYSTEMD_WANTS property on
the relevant devices to pull in a proper systemd service (which can
be sandboxed differently and ordered correctly after the network
having come up). If that's not possible consider reverting this
sandboxing feature locally by removing the RestrictAddressFamilies=
setting from the systemd-udevd.service unit file, or adding AF_INET
and AF_INET6 to it.
