This patch series is the sixth version (see below link to V5) of the suggested changes to the bonding driver so it would be able to support non ARPHRD_ETHER netdevices for its High-Availability (active-backup) mode.
Patches 1-8 were originally submitted in V5 and patch 9 is an addition by Jay. Major changes from the previous version: ---------------------------------------- 1. Remove the patches to net/core. Bonding will use the NETDEV_GOING_DOWN notification instead of NETDEV_CHANGE+IFF_SLAVE_DETACH. This reduces the amount of patches from 11 to 9. Links to earlier discussion: ---------------------------- 1. A discussion in netdev about bonding support for IPoIB. http://lists.openwall.net/netdev/2006/11/30/46 2.
