On s390 each PCI device has a user-defined ID (UID) exposed under /sys/bus/pci/devices/<dev>/uid. This ID was designed to serve as the PCI device's primary index and to match the device within Linux to the device configured in the hypervisor. To serve as a primary identifier the UID must be unique within the Linux instance, this is guaranteed by the platform if and only if the UID Uniqueness Checking flag is set within the CLP List PCI Functions response. In this sense the UID serves an analogous function as the SMBIOS instance number or ACPI index exposed as the "index" respectively "acpi_index" device attributes and used by e.g. systemd to set interface names. As s390 does not use and will likely never use ACPI nor SMBIOS there is no conflict and we can just expose the UID under the "index" attribute whenever UID Uniqueness Checking is active and get systemd's interface naming support for free.
