No need to require the bond down while changing these settings, the change
will be reflected immediately and the 3ad mode will sort itself out.
For faster convergence set port-&gt;ntt to true in order to generate new
LACPDUs immediately.

Currently the bonding allows to set ad_actor_system and prio while the
bond device is down, but these are actually applied only if there aren't
any slaves yet (applied to bond device when first slave shows up, and to
slaves at 3ad bind time). After this patch changes are applied immediately
and the new values can be used/seen after the bond's upped so it's not
necessary anymore to release all and enslave again to see the changes.

Pull inifiniband/rdma updates from Doug Ledford:
 "This is a fairly sizeable set of changes.  I've put them through a
  decent amount of testing prior to sending the pull request due to
  that.

  There are still a few fixups that I know are coming, but I wanted to
  go ahead and get the big, sizable chunk into your hands sooner rather
  than waiting for those last few fixups.

  Of note is the fact that this creates what is intended to be a
  temporary area in the drivers/staging tree specifically for some
  cleanups and additions that are coming for the RDMA stack.  We
  deprecated two drivers (ipath and amso1100) and are waiting to hear
  back if we can deprecate another one (ehca).  We also put Intel's new
  hfi1 driver into this area because it needs to be refactored and a
  transfer library created out of the factored out code, and then it and
  the qib driver and the soft-roce driver should all be modified to use
  that library.

  I expect drivers/staging/rdma to be around for three or four kernel
  releases and then to go away as all of the work is completed and final
  deletions of deprecated drivers are done.

  Summary of changes for 4.3:

   - Create drivers/staging/rdma
   - Move amso1100 driver to staging/rdma and schedule for deletion
   - Move ipath driver to staging/rdma and schedule for deletion
   - Add hfi1 driver to staging/rdma and set TODO for move to regular
     tree
   - Initial support for namespaces to be used on RDMA devices
   - Add RoCE GID table handling to the RDMA core caching code
   - Infrastructure to support handling of devices with differing read
     and write scatter gather capabilities
   - Various iSER updates
   - Kill off unsafe usage of global mr registrations
   - Update SRP driver
   - Misc  mlx4 driver updates
   - Support for the mr_alloc verb
   - Support for a netlink interface between kernel and user space cache
     daemon to speed path record queries and route resolution
   - Ininitial support for safe hot removal of verbs devices"

* tag 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dledford/rdma: (136 commits)
  IB/ipoib: Suppress warning for send only join failures

Some consumers of the netdev events API would like to know who is the
active slave when a NETDEV_CHANGEUPPER or NETDEV_BONDING_FAILOVER
events occur. For example, when managing RoCE GIDs, GIDs based on the
bond's ips should only be set on the port which corresponds to active
slave netdevice.

num_grat_arp wasn't converted to the new bonding option API, so do this
now and remove the specific sysfs store option in order to use the
standard one. num_grat_arp is the same as num_unsol_na so add it as an
alias with the same option settings. An important difference is the option
name which is matched in bond_sysfs_store_option().

<title>rtnl/bond: don't send rtnl msg for unregistered iface</title>

Before the patch, the command 'ip link add bond2 type bond mode 802.3ad'
causes the kernel to send a rtnl message for the bond2 interface, with an
ifindex 0.

'ip monitor' shows:
0: bond2: &lt;BROADCAST,MULTICAST,MASTER&gt; mtu 1500 state DOWN group default
    link/ether 00:00:00:00:00:00 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff

    link/ether ea:3e:1f:53:92:7b brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
[snip]

The patch fixes the spotted bug by checking in bond driver if the interface
is registered before calling the notifier chain.
It also adds a check in rtmsg_ifinfo() to prevent this kind of bug in the
future.

Adds netlink support for the following bonding options:
* BOND_OPT_AD_ACTOR_SYS_PRIO
* BOND_OPT_AD_ACTOR_SYSTEM
* BOND_OPT_AD_USER_PORT_KEY

When setting the actor system mac address we assume the netlink message
contains a binary mac and not a string representation of a mac.

<title>bonding: Implement user key part of port_key in an AD system.</title>

The port key has three components - user-key, speed-part, and duplex-part.
The LSBit is for the duplex-part, next 5 bits are for the speed while the
remaining 10 bits are the user defined key bits. Get these 10 bits
from the user-space (through the SysFs interface) and use it to form the
admin port-key. Allowed range for the user-key is 0 - 1023 (10 bits). If
it is not provided then use zero for the user-key-bits (default).

It can set using following example code -

   # modprobe bonding mode=4
   # usr_port_key=$(( RANDOM &amp; 0x3FF ))

The port key has three components - user-key, speed-part, and duplex-part.
The LSBit is for the duplex-part, next 5 bits are for the speed while the
remaining 10 bits are the user defined key bits. Get these 10 bits
from the user-space (through the SysFs interface) and use it to form the
admin port-key. Allowed range for the user-key is 0 - 1023 (10 bits). If
it is not provided then use zero for the user-key-bits (default).

It can set using following example code -

   # modprobe bonding mode=4
   # usr_port_key=$(( RANDOM &amp; 0x3FF ))
   # echo $usr_port_key &gt; /sys/class/net/bond0/bonding/ad_user_port_key
   # echo +eth1 &gt; /sys/class/net/bond0/bonding/slaves
   ...
   # ip link set bond0 up

In an AD system, the communication between actor and partner is the
business between these two entities. In the current setup anyone on the
same L2 can "guess" the LACPDU contents and then possibly send the
spoofed LACPDUs and trick the partner causing connectivity issues for
the AD system. This patch allows to use a random mac-address obscuring
it's identity making it harder for someone in the L2 is do the same thing.

This patch allows user-space to choose the mac-address for the AD-system.
This mac-address can not be NULL or a Multicast. If the mac-address is set
from user-space; kernel will honor it and will not overwrite it. In the
absence (value from user space); the logic will default to using the
masters' mac as the mac-address for the AD-system.

It can be set using example code below -

   # modprobe bonding mode=4
   # sys_mac_addr=$(printf '%02x:%02x:%02x:%02x:%02x:%02x' \
                    $(( (RANDOM &amp; 0xFE) | 0x02 )) \
                    $(( RANDOM &amp; 0xFF )) \
                    $(( RANDOM &amp; 0xFF )) \
                    $(( RANDOM &amp; 0xFF )) \
                    $(( RANDOM &amp; 0xFF )) \
                    $(( RANDOM &amp; 0xFF )))
   # echo $sys_mac_addr &gt; /sys/class/net/bond0/bonding/ad_actor_system
   # echo +eth1 &gt; /sys/class/net/bond0/bonding/slaves
   ...
   # ip link set bond0 up
