rc.local is enabled, and part of the initial boot target... if it exists, and is executable.

Can you please provide steps, or details of your system, on which you observe that it was not executed on boot? when present, and executable?

Note by default on ubuntu, there is no rc.local shipped. But would be used, if there is one on boot.

# cat /etc/rc.local
#!/bin/sh
echo Hello rc.local
exit 0

# sudo chmod +x /etc/rc.local
# sudo reboot
# journalctl -b -u rc-local.service
