The portion including and after the "_" is only for Network Partitioning
(NPAR) enabled NICs when the NPAR feature is enabled. On a typical
machine with biosdevname enabled without NPAR, you will see em* and
p*p*. For one with an NPAR-enabled NIC, you may see em*_* or p*p*_*.

Title:
  resolvconf is unaware of biosdevname NIC names

Status in “resolvconf” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  resolvconf is unaware of how to handle biosdevname NIC names, which
  are of the form em* and p*p*.

  In the resolvconf (1.63ubuntu9) source package, bin/list-records lacks
  these entries, and line 27 of etc/resolvconf/interface-order lacks
  them as well:

  PATTERNS="lo* eth* ath* wlan* ppp* *"

  I am not sure of the preferred ordering to fix this.
