dev_set_promiscuity/allmulti might overflow.
Commit: "netdevice: Fix promiscuity and allmulti overflow" in net-next makes
dev_set_promiscuity/allmulti return error number if overflow happened.
In bond_alb and bond_main, we check all positive increment for promiscuity
and allmulti to get error return.
But there are still two problems left.
1. Some code path has no mechanism to signal errors upstream.
2. If there are multi slaves, it's hard to tell which slaves increment
promisc/allmulti successfully and which failed.
So I left these problems to be FIXME.

Permit bonding to function rationally if max_bonds is set to
zero. This will load the module, but create no master devices (which can
be created via sysfs).
Requires some change to bond_create_sysfs; currently, the
netdev sysfs directory is determined from the first bonding device created,
but this is no longer possible. Instead, an interface from net/core is

bonding: Send more than one gratuitous ARP when slave takes over
This change modifies that support to remove duplicated code,
add support for ARP monitor (the original only supported miimon), clear
the grat ARP counter in bond_close (lest a later "ifconfig up" immediately
start spewing ARPs), and add documentation for the module parameter.
Also updated driver version to 3.3.0.

under active-backup mode and when there's actual new_active slave,
have bond_change_active_slave() call the networking core to deliver
NETDEV_BONDING_FAILOVER event such that the fail-over can be notable
by code outside of the bonding driver such as the RDMA stack and
monitoring tools.
As the correct context of locking appropriate for notifier calls is RTNL
and nothing else, bond->curr_slave_lock and bond->lock are unlocked and
later locked again. This is ensured by the rest of the code to be safe
under backup-mode AND when new_active is not NULL.

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.
This patch requires a previous ARP monitor change to properly
handle RTNL during failovers.

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
module param.

Remove bond_has_ip and all references to it. With this change,
the ARP monitor will always send ARP probes if the master is up and has
at least one slave. If the bond has an IP address, it is used in the
ARP probe; if not, the probes are sent with all zeros in the sender's
IP address (which is consistent with an RFC 2131 4.4.1 duplicate address
probe).
This is useful for cases when bonding itself is hidden underneath
a layer of virtual devices, e.g., with Xen.

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,

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.

ground between what currently exists in the layer2 only policy and the

transmitting every packet of any particular flow over the same link.
As documented the layer3+4 policy is not fully compliant for extreme

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).
