Subject: [PATCH] bonding: clean muticast addresses when bevice changes type
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
5 bond0 1 0 00ffffffff12601bffff000000000001ff96ca05
5 bond0 1 0 01005e000116
5 bond0 1 0 01005e7ffffd
5 bond0 1 0 01005e000001
5 bond0 1 0 333300000001
6 ib0 1 0 00ffffffff12601bffff000000000001ff96ca05
6 ib0 1 0 333300000001
6 ib0 1 0 01005e000001
6 ib0 1 0 01005e7ffffd
6 ib0 1 0 01005e000116
6 ib0 1 0 00ffffffff12401bffff00000000000000000001
6 ib0 1 0 00ffffffff12601bffff00000000000000000001
and this is how it looks like after the patch.
5 bond0 1 0 00ffffffff12601bffff000000000001ff96ca05
