      bonding: Convert miimon to new locking · 0b0eef66
      Jay Vosburgh 提交于
      	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).

      Jay Vosburgh 提交于
      	Change locking in balance-rr transmit processing to use a free
      running counter to determine which slave to transmit on.  Instead, a
      free-running counter is maintained, and modulo arithmetic used to select
      a slave for transmit.
      
      	This removes lock operations from the TX path, and eliminates
      a deadlock introduced by the conversion to work queues.

      net/bonding: Destroy bonding master when last slave is gone · d90a162a
      Moni Shoua 提交于
      When bonding enslaves non Ethernet devices it takes pointers to functions
      in the module that owns the slaves. In this case it becomes unsafe
      to keep the bonding master registered after last slave was unenslaved
      because we don't know if the pointers are still valid.  Destroying the bond when slave_cnt is zero
      ensures that these functions be used anymore.

      net/bonding: Enable IP multicast for bonding IPoIB devices · 6b1bf096
      Moni Shoua 提交于
      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)

      net/bonding: Enable bonding to enslave non ARPHRD_ETHER · 872254dd
      Moni Shoua 提交于
      This patch changes some of the bond netdevice attributes and functions
      to be that of the active slave for the case of the enslaved device not being
      of ARPHRD_ETHER type. Basically it overrides those setting done by ether_setup(),
      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).

      [NET]: ethtool ops are the only way · 61a44b9c
      Matthew Wilcox 提交于
      During the transition to the ethtool_ops way of doing things, we supported
      calling the device's ->do_ioctl method to allow unconverted drivers to
      continue working.  Those days are long behind us, all in-tree drivers
      use the ethtool_ops way, and so we no longer need to support this.
      
      The bonding driver is the biggest beneficiary of this; it no longer
      needs to call ioctl() as a fallback if ethtool_ops aren't supported.

      bonding / ipv6: no addrconf for slaves separately from master · c2edacf8
      Jay Vosburgh 提交于
      	At present, when a device is enslaved to bonding, if ipv6 is
      active then addrconf will be initated on the slave (because it is closed
      then opened during the enslavement processing).  This causes DAD and RS
      packets to be sent from the slave.  These packets in turn can confuse
      switches that perform ipv6 snooping, causing them to incorrectly update
      their forwarding tables (if, e.g., the slave being added is an inactve
      backup that won't be used right away) and direct traffic away from the
      active slave to a backup slave (where the incoming packets will be
      dropped).
      
      	This patch alters the behavior so that addrconf will only run on
      the master device itself.  I believe this is logically correct, as it
      prevents slaves from having an IPv6 identity independent from the
      master.  This is consistent with the IPv4 behavior for bonding.
      
      	This is accomplished by (a) having bonding set IFF_SLAVE sooner
      in the enslavement processing than currently occurs (before open, not
      after), and (b) having ipv6 addrconf ignore UP and CHANGE events on
      slave devices.
      
      	The eql driver also uses the IFF_SLAVE flag.  I inspected eql,
      and I believe this change is reasonable for its usage of IFF_SLAVE, but
      I did not test it.

      bonding: Improve IGMP join processing · a816c7c7
      Jay Vosburgh 提交于
      	In active-backup mode, the current bonding code duplicates IGMP
      traffic to all slaves, so that switches are up to date in case of a
      failover from an active to a backup interface.  If bonding then fails
      back to the original active interface, it is likely that the "active
      slave" switch's IGMP forwarding for the port will be out of date until
      some event occurs to refresh the switch (e.g., a membership query).
      
      	This patch alters the behavior of bonding to no longer flood
      IGMP to all ports, and to issue IGMP JOINs to the newly active port at
      the time of a failover.  This insures that switches are kept up to date
      for all cases.
      
      	"GOELLESCH Niels" <niels.goellesch@eurocontrol.int> originally
      reported this problem, and included a patch.  His original patch was
