There is a small possibility that a reader gets incorrect values on 32
bit arches. SNMP applications could catch incorrect counters when a
32bit high part is changed by another stats consumer/provider.
One way to solve this is to add a rtnl_link_stats64 param to all
ndo_get_stats64() methods, and also add such a parameter to
dev_get_stats().
Rule is that we are not allowed to use dev->stats64 as a temporary
storage for 64bit stats, but a caller provided area (usually on stack)
Old drivers (only providing get_stats() method) need no changes.

When two systems using bonding devices in adaptive load
balancing (ALB) communicates with each other, an endless
ping-pong of ARP replies starts between these two systems.
What happens? In the ALB mode, bonding driver keeps track
of each client connected in a hash table, so it can do the
receive load balancing (RLB). This hash table is updated
when an ARP reply is received, then it scans for the client
entry, updates its MAC address and flag it to be announced
later. Therefore, two seconds later, the alb monitor runs
and send for each updated client entry two ARP replies
updating this specific client. The same process happens on
the receiving system, causing the endless ping-pong of arp
replies.
See more information including the relevant functions below:

| client_info->ntt = 1;
| bond_info->rx_ntt = 1;
| < snipped, same as in system 1>
+------- <-------------- send ARP reply
<-------------- send ARP reply
Besides the unneeded networking traffic, this loop breaks
a cluster because a backup system can't take over the IP
address. There is always one system sending an ARP reply
poisoning the network.
This patch fixes the problem adding a check for the MAC
address before updating it. Thus, if the MAC address didn't
change, there is no need to update neither to announce it later.

Support for netpoll over bonded interfaces was added here:
commit f6dc31a85c
Author: WANG Cong <amwang@redhat.com>
Date: Thu May 6 00:48:51 2010 -0700
bonding: make bonding support netpoll
but it is bad enough that we should probably just disable netpoll over
bonding until some of the locking logic in the bonding driver is changed
or converted completely to RCU. Simple actions like changing the active
slave in active-backup mode will hang the box if a high enough printk
debugging level is enabled.
Keeping the old code around will be good for anyone that wants to work
on it (and for after the RCU conversion), so I propose this small patch
rather than ripping it all out.

return a pointer to struct rtnl_link_stats64. Drivers that implement
this operation must not update the structure asynchronously.

v2: changed bonding module version, modified to apply on top of changes
from previous patch in series, and updated documentation to elaborate on
multiqueue awareness that now exists in bonding driver.
This patch give the user the ability to control the output slave for
round-robin and active-backup bonding. Similar functionality was
discussed in the past, but Jay Vosburgh indicated he would rather see a
feature like this added to existing modes rather than creating a
completely new mode. Jay's thoughts as well as Neil's input surrounding
some of the issues with the first implementation pushed us toward a
design that relied on the queue_mapping rather than skb marks.
Round-robin and active-backup modes were chosen as the first users of
this slave selection as they seemed like the most logical choices when
considering a multi-switch environment.
Round-robin mode works without any modification, but active-backup does
require inclusion of the first patch in this series and setting
the 'all_slaves_active' flag. This will allow reception of unicast traffic on
any of the backup interfaces.
This was tested with IPv4-based filters as well as VLAN-based filters
with good results.
More information as well as a configuration example is available in the
patch to Documentation/networking/bonding.txt.

v2: changed parameter name from 'keep_all' to 'all_slaves_active' and
skipped setting slaves to inactive rather than creating a new flag at
Jay's suggestion.
In an effort to suppress duplicate frames on certain bonding modes
(specifically the modes that do not require additional configuration on
the switch or switches connected to the host), code was added in the
generic receive patch in 2.6.16. The current behavior works quite well
for most users, but there are some times it would be nice to restore old
functionality and allow all frames to make their way up the stack.
This patch adds support for a new module option and sysfs file called
'all_slaves_active' that will restore pre-2.6.16 functionality if the
user desires. The default value is '0' and retains existing behavior,
but the user can set it to '1' and allow all frames up if desired.

2) modify netpoll during forwarding packets via bonding;
3) disable netpoll support of bonding when a netpoll-unabled device
is added to bonding;
4) enable netpoll support when all underlying devices support netpoll.

Round-robin (mode 0) does nothing to ensure that any multicast traffic
originally destined for the host will continue to arrive at the host when
the link that sent the IGMP join or membership report goes down. One of
the benefits of absolute round-robin transmit.
Keeping track of subscribed multicast groups for each slave did not seem
like a good use of resources, so I decided to simply send on the
curr_active slave of the bond (typically the first enslaved device that
is up). This makes failover management simple as IGMP membership
reports only need to be sent when the curr_active_slave changes. I
tested this patch and it appears to work as expected.

The language of 802.3ad 43.4.9 requires the "recordPDU" function
to, in part, compare the Partner parameter values in a received LACPDU
to the stored Actor values. If those match, then the Partner's
synchronization state is set to true.
The current 802.3ad implementation is performing these steps out
of order; first, the synchronization check is done, then the paramters are
checked to see if they match (the synch check being done against a match
check of a prior LACPDU). This causes delays in establishing aggregators
in some circumstances.
This patch modifies the 802.3ad code to call __choose_matched,
the function that does the "match" comparisions, as the first step of
__record_pdu, instead of immediately afterwards. This new behavior is
in compliance with the language of the standard.
Some additional commentary relating to code vs. standard is also
added.

the logic of the fix and verified the patch.

In mii monitor mode, bond_check_dev_link() calls the the ioctl
handler of slave devices. It stores the ndo_do_ioctl function
pointer to a static (!) ioctl variable and later uses it to call the
handler with the IOCTL macro.
If another thread executes bond_check_dev_link() at the same time
(even with a different bond, which none of the locks prevent), a
race condition occurs. If the two racing slaves have different
drivers, this may result in one driver's ioctl handler being
called with a pointer to a net_device controlled with a different
driver, resulting in unpredictable breakage.
Unless I am overlooking something, the "static" must be a
copy'n'paste error (?).

Primary module parameter passed to bonding is pernament. That means if you
release the primary slave and enslave it again, it becomes the primary slave
again. But if you set primary slave via sysfs, the primary slave is only set
once and it's not remembered in bond->params structure. Therefore the setting is
lost after releasing the primary slave. This simple one-liner fixes this.

When I was implementing primary_passive option (formely named primary_lazy) I've
run into troubles with ab_arp. This is the only mode which is not using
bond_select_active_slave() function to select active slave and instead it
selects it itself. This seems to be not the right behaviour and it would be
better to do it in bond_select_active_slave() for all cases. This patch makes
this happen. Please review.

This patch fixes commit e36b9d16c6. The approach
there is to call dev_close()/dev_open() whenever the device type is changed in
order to remap the device IP multicast addresses to HW multicast addresses.
This approach suffers from 2 drawbacks:
*. It assumes tha the device is UP when calling dev_close(), or otherwise
dev_close() has no affect. It is worth to mention that initscripts (Redhat)
and sysconfig (Suse) doesn't act the same in this matter.
*. dev_close() has other side affects, like deleting entries from the routing
table, which might be unnecessary.
The fix here is to directly remap the IP multicast addresses to HW multicast
addresses for a bonding device that changes its type, and nothing else.

Bonding device forbids slave device of different types under the same
master.
However, it is possible for a bonding master to change type during its
lifetime. This can be either from ARPHRD_ETHER to ARPHRD_INFINIBAND
or the other way arround. The change of type requires device level
multicast address cleanup because device level multicast addresses
depend on the device type.
The patch adds a call to dev_close() before the bonding master changes
type and dev_open() just after that.
In the example below I enslaved an IPoIB device (ib0) under
bond0. Since each bonding master starts as device of type ARPHRD_ETHER
by default, a change of type occurs when ib0 is enslaved.
This is how /proc/net/dev_mcast looks like without the patch

One point of contention in high network loads is the dst_release() performed
when a transmited skb is freed. This is because NIC tx completion calls
dev_kree_skb() long after original call to dev_queue_xmit(skb).
CPU cache is cold and the atomic op in dst_release() stalls. On SMP, this is
quite visible if one CPU is 100% handling softirqs for a network device,
since dst_clone() is done by other cpus, involving cache line ping pongs.
It seems right place to release dst is in dev_hard_start_xmit(), for most
devices but ones that are virtual, and some exceptions.
David Miller suggested to define a new device flag, set in alloc_netdev_mq()
(so that most devices set it at init time), and carefuly unset in devices
which dont want a NULL skb->dst in their ndo_start_xmit().
List of devices that must clear this flag is :
- loopback device, because it calls netif_rx() and quoting Patrick :
"ip_route_input() doesn't accept loopback addresses, so loopback packets
already need to have a dst_entry attached."
- appletalk/ipddp.c : needs skb->dst in its xmit function
- And all devices that call again dev_queue_xmit() from their xmit function
(as some classifiers need skb->dst) : bonding, vlan, macvlan, eql, ifb, hdlc_fr

One of the purposes of bonding is to allow for redundant links, and failover
correctly if the cable is pulled. If all the members of a bonded device have
no carrier present, the bonded device itself needs to report no carrier present
to user space so management tools (like routing daemons) can respond.
Bonding in 802.3ad mode does not work correctly for this because it incorrectly
chooses a link that is down as a possible aggregator.

struct net_device trans_start field is a hot spot on SMP and high performance
devices, particularly multi queues ones, because every transmitter dirties
it. Is main use is tx watchdog and bonding alive checks.
But as most devices dont use NETIF_F_LLTX, we have to lock
a netdev_queue before calling their ndo_start_xmit(). So it makes
sense to move trans_start from net_device to netdev_queue. Its update
will occur on a already present (and in exclusive state) cache line, for
free.
We can do this transition smoothly. An old driver continue to
update dev->trans_start, while an updated one updates txq->trans_start.
Further patches could also put tx_bytes/tx_packets counters in
netdev_queue to avoid dirtying dev->stats (vlan device comes to mind)

Quote from Documentation/networking/bonding.txt:
"Note that when a bonding interface has no active links, the
driver will immediately reuse the first link that goes up, even if the
updelay parameter has been specified (the updelay is ignored in this
case). If there are slave interfaces waiting for the updelay timeout
to expire, the interface that first went into that state will be
immediately reused. This reduces down time of the network if the
value of updelay has been overestimated, and since this occurs only in
cases with no connectivity, there is no additional penalty for
ignoring the updelay."
This patch actually changes the behaviour in this way.

Setting ->owner as done currently (pde->owner = THIS_MODULE) is racy
as correctly noted at bug #12454. Someone can lookup entry with NULL
->owner, thus not pinning enything, and release it later resulting
in module refcount underflow.
We can keep ->owner and supply it at registration time like ->proc_fops
and ->data.
But this leaves ->owner as easy-manipulative field (just one C assignment)
and somebody will forget to unpin previous/pin current module when
switching ->owner. ->proc_fops is declared as "const" which should give
some thoughts.
->read_proc/->write_proc were just fixed to not require ->owner for
protection.
rmmod'ed directories will be empty and return "." and ".." -- no harm.
And directories with tricky enough readdir and lookup shouldn't be modular.
We definitely don't want such modular code.
Removing ->owner will also make PDE smaller.
So, let's nuke it.
Kudos to Jeff Layton for reminding about this, let's say, oversight.

The current active slave is set by calling bond_select_active_slave() function
from bond_miimon_commit() function when the slave (eth1) link goes to state up.
I also tested this on other machine with Broadcom NetXtreme II BCM5708
1000Base-T NIC and there all works fine. The thing is that this adapter is down
and goes up after few seconds after it is enslaved.
This patch calls bond_select_active_slave() in bond_enslave() function for modes
alb and tlb and makes sure that the current active slave is set up properly even
when the slave state is already up. Tested on both systems, works fine.

This patch implements alternative aggregator selection policies
for 802.3ad. The existing policy, now termed "stable," selects the active
aggregator by greatest bandwidth, and only reselects a new aggregator
if the active aggregator is entirely disabled (no more ports or all ports
down).
This patch adds two new policies: bandwidth and count, selecting
the active aggregator by total bandwidth (like the stable policy) or by
the number of ports in the aggregator, respectively. These two policies
also differ from the stable policy in that they will reselect the active
aggregator when availability-related changes occur in the bond (e.g.,
link state change).
This permits "gang failover" within 802.3ad, allowing redundant
aggregators along parallel paths to always maintain the "best" aggregator
as the active aggregator (rather than having to wait for the active to
entirely fail).
This patch also updates the driver version to 3.5.0.

This patch adds better IPv6 failover support for bonding devices,
especially when in active-backup mode and there are only IPv6 addresses
configured, as reported by Alex Sidorenko.
- Creates a new file, net/drivers/bonding/bond_ipv6.c, for the
IPv6-specific routines. Both regular bonds and VLANs over bonds
are supported.
- Adds a new tunable, num_unsol_na, to limit the number of unsolicited
IPv6 Neighbor Advertisements that are sent on a failover event.
Default is 1.
- Creates two new IPv6 neighbor discovery functions:
ndisc_build_skb()
ndisc_send_skb()
These were required to support VLANs since we have to be able to
add the VLAN id to the skb since ndisc_send_na() and friends
shouldn't be asked to do this. These two routines are basically
__ndisc_send() split into two pieces, in a slightly different order.
- Updates Documentation/networking/bonding.txt and bumps the rev of bond
support to 3.4.0.
On failover, this new code will generate one packet:
- An unsolicited IPv6 Neighbor Advertisement, which helps the switch
learn that the address has moved to the new slave.
Testing has shown that sending just the NA results in pretty good
behavior when in active-back mode, I saw no lost ping packets for example.

A panic was discovered with bonding when using mode 5 or 6 and trying to
remove the slaves from the bond after the interface was taken down.
When calling 'ifconfig bond0 down' the following happens:
bond_close()
bond_alb_deinitialize()
tlb_deinitialize()
kfree(bond_info->tx_hashtbl)
bond_info->tx_hashtbl = NULL
Unfortunately if there are still slaves in the bond, when removing the
module the following happens:
bonding_exit()
bond_free_all()
bond_release_all()
bond_alb_deinit_slave()
tlb_clear_slave()
tx_hash_table = BOND_ALB_INFO(bond).tx_hashtbl
u32 next_index = tx_hash_table[index].next
As you might guess we panic when trying to access a few entries into the
table that no longer exists.
I experimented with several options (like moving the calls to
tlb_deinitialize somewhere else), but it really makes the most sense to
be part of the bond_close routine. It also didn't seem logical move
tlb_clear_slave around too much, so the simplest option seems to add a
check in tlb_clear_slave to make sure we haven't already wiped the
tx_hashtbl away before searching for all the non-existent hash-table
entries that used to point to the slave as the output interface.

It is wrong to destroy a bonding master from a context that uses the sysfs
of that bond. When last IPoIB slave is unenslaved from by writing to a

the driver tries to destroy the bond. This is wrong and can lead to a

Add a "follow" selection for fail_over_mac. This option
causes the MAC address to move from slave to slave as the active
slave changes. This is in addition to the existing fail_over_mac option
that causes the bond's MAC address to change during failover.
This new option is useful for devices that cannot tolerate
multiple ports using the same MAC address simultaneously, either
because it confuses them or incurs a performance penalty (as is the
case with some LPAR-aware multiport devices). Because the MAC of the
bond itself does not change, the "follow" option is slightly more
reliable during failover and doesn't change the MAC of the bond during
operation.

Refactor ARP monitor for active-backup mode. The motivation for
this is to take care of locking issues in a clear manner (particularly to
correctly handle RTNL vs. the bonding locks). Currently, the a-b ARP
monitor does not hold RTNL at all, but future changes will require RTNL
during ARP monitor failovers.
Rather than using conditional locking, this patch instead breaks
up the ARP monitor into three discrete steps: inspection, commit changes,
and probe. The inspection phase marks slaves that require link state
changes. The commit phase is only called if inspection detects that
changes are needed, and is called with RTNL. Lastly, the probe phase
issues the ARP probes that the inspection phase uses to determine link
state.

With IPoIB, reception of gratuitous ARP by neighboring hosts
is essential for a successful change of slaves in case of failure.
Otherwise, they won't learn about the HW address change and need
to wait a long time until the neighboring system gives up and sends
an ARP request to learn the new HW address. This patch decreases
the chance for a lost of a gratuitous ARP packet by sending it more
than once. The number retries is configurable and can be set with a

This is useful for cases when bonding itself is hidden underneath

bonding / ipv6: no addrconf for slaves separately from master
two steps were rearranged in the enslavement process: netdev_set_master
is now before the call to dev_open to open the slave.
This patch updates the error cases and unwind process at the
end of bond_enslave to match the new order. Without this patch, it is
possible for the enslavement to fail, but leave the slave with IFF_SLAVE
set in its flags.

The sysfs layer has an internal protection, that ensures, that
all the process sitting inside ->sore/->show callback exits
before the appropriate entry is unregistered (the calltraces
are rather big, but I can provide them if required).
On the other hand, bonding takes rtnl_lock in
a) the bonding_store_bonds, i.e. in ->store callback,
b) module exit before calling the sysfs unregister routines.
Thus, the classical AB-BA deadlock may occur. To reproduce run
# while :; do modprobe bonding; rmmod bonding; done
and
# while :; do echo '+bond%d' > /sys/class/net/bonding_masters ; done
in parallel.
The fix is to move the bond_destroy_sysfs out of the rtnl_lock,
but _before_ bond_free_all to make sure no bonding devices exist
after module unload.

I've seen reports of invalid stats in /proc/net/dev for bonding
interfaces, and found it's a pretty easy problem to reproduce. Since
the current code zeros the bonding stats when a read is requested and a
pointer to that data is returned to the caller we cannot guarantee that
the caller has completely accessed the data before a successive call to
request the stats zeroes the stats again.
This patch creates a new stack variable to keep track of the updated
stats and copies the data from that variable into the bonding stats
structure. This ensures that the value for any of the bonding stats
should not incorrectly return zero for any of the bonding statistics.
This does use more stack space and require an extra memcpy, but it seems
like a fair trade-off for consistently correct bonding statistics.

submitted by "Glenn Griffin" <ggriffin.kernel@gmail.com>; modified by
Jay Vosburgh to move setting of hash policy out of line, tweak the
documentation update and add version update to 3.2.2.
Glenn's original comment follows:
Included is a patch for a new xmit_hash_policy for the bonding driver
that selects slaves based on MAC and IP information. This is a middle
ground between what currently exists in the layer2 only policy and the
layer3+4 policy. This policy strives to be fully 802.3ad compliant by
transmitting every packet of any particular flow over the same link.
As documented the layer3+4 policy is not fully compliant for extreme
cases such as ip fragmentation, so this policy is a nice compromise
for environments that require full compliance but desire more than the
layer2 only policy.

Convert mii (link state) monitor to acquire correct locks for
failover events. In particular, failovers generally require RTNL at a low
level (when manipulating device MAC addresses, for example) and no other
locks. The high level monitor is responsible for acquiring a known set
of locks, RTNL, the bond->lock for read and the slave_lock for write, and
the low level failover processing can then release appropriate locks as
needed. This patch provides the high level portion.
As it is undesirable to acquire RTNL for every monitor pass (which
may occur as often as every 10 ms), the miimon has been converted to
do conditional locking. A first pass inspects all slaves to determine
if any action is required, and if so, a second pass (after acquring RTNL)
is done to perform any actions (doing a complete rescan, as the situation
may have changed when all locks were released).

Allow to enslave devices when the bonding device is not up. Over the discussion
held at the previous post this seemed to be the most clean way to go, where it
is not expected to cause instabilities.
Normally, the bonding driver is UP before any enslavement takes place.
Once a netdevice is UP, the network stack acts to have it join some multicast groups
(eg the all-hosts 224.0.0.1). Now, since ether_setup() have set the bonding device
type to be ARPHRD_ETHER and address len to be ETHER_ALEN, the net core code
computes a wrong multicast link address. This is b/c ip_eth_mc_map() is called
where for multicast joins taking place after the enslavement another ip_xxx_mc_map()
is called (eg ip_ib_mc_map() when the bond type is ARPHRD_INFINIBAND)

which are netdevice **type** dependent and hence might be not appropriate for
devices of other types. It also enforces mutual exclusion on bonding slaves
from dissimilar ether types, as was concluded over the v1 discussion.
IPoIB (see Documentation/infiniband/ipoib.txt) MAC address is made of a 3 bytes
IB QP (Queue Pair) number and 16 bytes IB port GID (Global ID) of the port this
IPoIB device is bounded to. The QP is a resource created by the IB HW and the
GID is an identifier burned into the HCA (i have omitted here some details which
are not important for the bonding RFC).

This patch makes most of the generic device layer network
namespace safe. This patch makes dev_base_head a
network namespace variable, and then it picks up
a few associated variables. The functions:
dev_getbyhwaddr
dev_getfirsthwbytype
dev_get_by_flags
dev_get_by_name
__dev_get_by_name
dev_get_by_index
__dev_get_by_index
dev_ioctl
dev_ethtool
dev_load
wireless_process_ioctl
were modified to take a network namespace argument, and
deal with it.
vlan_ioctl_set and brioctl_set were modified so their
hooks will receive a network namespace argument.
So basically anthing in the core of the network stack that was
affected to by the change of dev_base was modified to handle
multiple network namespaces. The rest of the network stack was
simply modified to explicitly use &init_net the initial network
namespace. This can be fixed when those components of the network
stack are modified to handle multiple network namespaces.
For now the ifindex generator is left global.
Fundametally ifindex numbers are per namespace, or else
we will have corner case problems with migration when
we get that far.
At the same time there are assumptions in the network stack
that the ifindex of a network device won't change. Making
the ifindex number global seems a good compromise until
the network stack can cope with ifindex changes when
you change namespaces, and the like.

Every user of the network device notifiers is either a protocol
stack or a pseudo device. If a protocol stack that does not have
support for multiple network namespaces receives an event for a
device that is not in the initial network namespace it quite possibly
can get confused and do the wrong thing.
To avoid problems until all of the protocol stacks are converted
this patch modifies all netdev event handlers to ignore events on
devices that are not in the initial network namespace.
As the rest of the code is made network namespace aware these
checks can be removed.

This patch modifies every packet receive function
registered with dev_add_pack() to drop packets if they
are not from the initial network namespace.
This should ensure that the various network stacks do
not receive packets in a anything but the initial network
namespace until the code has been converted and is ready
for them.
