<content type='text'>
In __bond_release_one(), when the interface is not a slave or not a slave of
"this" master, it log error message.

The message actually should be a debug message matching what bond_enslave()
does.

<title>bonding: change AD_LINK_SPEED_BITMASK to enum to suport more speed</title>

Port Key was determined as 16 bits according to the link speed,
duplex and user key (which is yet not supported).  In the old
speed field, 5 bits are for speed [1|10|100|1000|10000]Mbps as
below:
--------------------------------------------------------------
Port key :| User key        | Speed         |       Duplex|
--------------------------------------------------------------
    16                  6               1               0
This patch keeps the old layout, but changes AD_LINK_SPEED_BITMASK
from bit type to an enum type.  In this way, the speed field can
expand speed type from 5 to 32.

<title>bonding: fix curr_active_slave/carrier with loadbalance arp monitoring</title>

<id>b8e4500f42fe4464a33a887579147050bed8fcef</id>
<content type='text'>
Since commit 6fde8f037e60 ("bonding: fix locking in
bond_loadbalance_arp_mon()") we can have a stale bond carrier state and
stale curr_active_slave when using arp monitoring in loadbalance modes. The
reason is that in bond_loadbalance_arp_mon() we can't have
do_failover == true but slave_state_changed == false, whenever do_failover
is true then slave_state_changed is also true. Then the following piece
from bond_loadbalance_arp_mon():
                if (slave_state_changed) {
                        bond_slave_state_change(bond);
                        if (BOND_MODE(bond) == BOND_MODE_XOR)
                                bond_update_slave_arr(bond, NULL);
                } else if (do_failover) {
                        block_netpoll_tx();
                        bond_select_active_slave(bond);
                        unblock_netpoll_tx();
                }

will execute only the first branch, always and regardless of do_failover.
Since these two events aren't related in such way, we need to decouple and
consider them separately.

For example this issue could lead to the following result:
Bonding Mode: load balancing (round-robin)
*MII Status: down*
MII Polling Interval (ms): 0
Up Delay (ms): 0
Down Delay (ms): 0
ARP Polling Interval (ms): 100
ARP IP target/s (n.n.n.n form): 192.168.9.2

Slave Interface: ens12
*MII Status: up*
Speed: 10000 Mbps
Duplex: full
Link Failure Count: 2
Permanent HW addr: 00:0f:53:01:42:2c
Slave queue ID: 0

Slave Interface: eth1
*MII Status: up*
Speed: Unknown
Duplex: Unknown
Link Failure Count: 70
Permanent HW addr: 52:54:00:2f:0f:8e
Slave queue ID: 0

Since some interfaces are up, then the status of the bond should also be
up, but it will never change unless something invokes bond_set_carrier()
(i.e. enslave, bond_select_active_slave etc). Now, if I force the
calling of bond_select_active_slave via for example changing
primary_reselect (it can change in any mode), then the MII status goes to
"up" because it calls bond_select_active_slave() which should've been done
from bond_loadbalance_arp_mon() itself.

<title>net: generic dev_disable_lro() stacked device handling</title>

<id>fbe168ba91f7c327856f205699404284c2f09e36</id>
<content type='text'>
Large receive offloading is known to cause problems if received packets
are passed to other host. Therefore the kernel disables it by calling
dev_disable_lro() whenever a network device is enslaved in a bridge or
forwarding is enabled for it (or globally). For virtual devices we need
to disable LRO on the underlying physical device (which is actually
receiving the packets).

Current dev_disable_lro() code handles this  propagation for a vlan
(including 802.1ad nested vlan), macvlan or a vlan on top of a macvlan.
It doesn't handle other stacked devices and their combinations, in
particular propagation from a bond to its slaves which often causes
problems in virtualization setups.

As we now have generic data structures describing the upper-lower device
relationship, dev_disable_lro() can be generalized to disable LRO also
for all lower devices (if any) once it is disabled for the device
itself.

For bonding and teaming devices, it is necessary to disable LRO not only
on current slaves at the moment when dev_disable_lro() is called but
also on any slave (port) added later.

v2: use lower device links for all devices (including vlan and macvlan)

Large receive offloading is known to cause problems if received packets
are passed to other host. Therefore the kernel disables it by calling
dev_disable_lro() whenever a network device is enslaved in a bridge or
forwarding is enabled for it (or globally). For virtual devices we need
to disable LRO on the underlying physical device (which is actually
receiving the packets).

Current dev_disable_lro() code handles this  propagation for a vlan
(including 802.1ad nested vlan), macvlan or a vlan on top of a macvlan.
It doesn't handle other stacked devices and their combinations, in
particular propagation from a bond to its slaves which often causes
problems in virtualization setups.

As we now have generic data structures describing the upper-lower device
relationship, dev_disable_lro() can be generalized to disable LRO also
for all lower devices (if any) once it is disabled for the device
itself.

For bonding and teaming devices, it is necessary to disable LRO not only
on current slaves at the moment when dev_disable_lro() is called but
also on any slave (port) added later.
