Subject: [PATCH 2/4] bonding: make sure tx and rx hash tables stay in sync
when using alb mode
Subject: [PATCH] bonding: make sure tx and rx hash tables stay in sync when using alb mode
I noticed that it was easy for alb (mode 6) bonding to get into a state
where the tx hash-table and rx hash-table are out of sync (there is
really nothing to keep them synchronized), and we will transmit traffic
destined for a host on one slave and send ARP frames to the same slave
from another interface using a different source MAC.
There is no compelling reason to do this, so this patch makes sure the
rx hash-table changes whenever the tx hash-table is updated based on
device load. This patch also drops the code that does rlb re-balancing
since the balancing will not be controlled by the tx hash-table based on
transmit load.
Long-term it would be nice to reduce these two tables into one, but
until that is done (as well as some significant re-factoring on the alb
code) they should be kept in sync.
