Message-ID: <CALnKHDCKs-_XvW0jFAu1yv-Ex_OabqzuyBy=US_W-jzwy9N3Ug@mail.gmail.com> Date: Tue, 10 Jun 2025 09:54:25 -0700 From: Haylin Moore <hmoore@...ulo.com> To: netdev@...r.kernel.org Subject: bond_eth_hash only uses the fifth byte of MAC address Hello All, I am currently digging into the source code powering layer2+3 bonding and saw that for bond_eth_hash only the 5th byte of both the source and destination MAC address is used in the XOR. Is there a reason for this? I was not able to find anything searching the mailing lists or the web. This functionality while documented just feels weird to me. Thank you, Haylin Moore
