I also want to try bonding between two machines, one 486 and one dual 200mmx, and until now without luck, I only managed to lockup the dual machine by doing ifconfig up & down and insmod & rmmod, mostly because the lack of documentation.

Re: bonding.c and proc_fs
Hello ! I think that you should wait a bit before writing a config in /proc for the bonding driver. I have rewritten quite a part of it to support link detection and make it a bit fail safe. Moreover, I had to rewrite partly ifenslave.c (which is included in the same patch). Everything *seems* to work fine (even in SMP now) and I've submitted this to Thomas Davis after Constantine Gavrilov has done some tests. If you're interested in, I can send you the currently working patch (with longer doc). It may change the way you planned your configuration in /proc.

bonding.c and proc_fs
Hello, I am writing a /proc interface to the ethernet bonding driver and had the following questions: 1) Why does a slave interface need an IP address? Isn't it sufficient if slave->flags is set to IFF_UP|IFF_RUNNING ? 2) What happens if the MTU of differnet slave devices are different? How does one choose the MTU of the master? Minimum of the MTU of all slaves? 3) Where in /proc would one put the bonding driver? /proc/net/bondNNN?
