<title>bonding: debugfs and network namespaces are incompatible</title>

The bonding debugfs support has been broken in the presence of network
namespaces since it has been added.  The debugfs support does not handle
multiple bonding devices with the same name in different network
namespaces.

I haven't had any bug reports, and I'm not interested in getting any.
Disable the debugfs support when network namespaces are enabled.

It was recently reported that moving a bonding device between network
namespaces causes warnings from /proc.  It turns out after the move we
were trying to add and to remove the /proc/net/bonding entries from the
wrong network namespace.

Move the bonding /proc registration code into the NETDEV_REGISTER and
NETDEV_UNREGISTER events where the proc registration and unregistration
will always happen at the right time.

There are four link statuses of a bonding slave, the procfs
code shows a wrong status when using downdelay/updelay:

	(slave-&gt;link == BOND_LINK_UP) ?  "up" : "down"

It doesn't respect the rest two statuses. This patch fixes it.

<title>bonding: Fix corrupted queue_mapping</title>

<id>5ee31c6898ea5537fcea160999d60dc63bc0c305</id>
<content type='text'>
In the transmit path of the bonding driver, skb-&gt;cb is used to
stash the skb-&gt;queue_mapping so that the bonding device can set its
own queue mapping.  This value becomes corrupted since the skb-&gt;cb is
also used in __dev_xmit_skb.

When transmitting through bonding driver, bond_select_queue is
called from dev_queue_xmit.  In bond_select_queue the original
skb-&gt;queue_mapping is copied into skb-&gt;cb (via bond_queue_mapping)
and skb-&gt;queue_mapping is overwritten with the bond driver queue.

Subsequently in dev_queue_xmit, __dev_xmit_skb is called which writes
the packet length into skb-&gt;cb, thereby overwriting the stashed
queue mappping.  In bond_dev_queue_xmit (called from hard_start_xmit),
the queue mapping for the skb is set to the stashed value which is now
the skb length and hence is an invalid queue for the slave device.

If we want to save skb-&gt;queue_mapping into skb-&gt;cb[], best place is to
add a field in struct qdisc_skb_cb, to make sure it wont conflict with
other layers (eg : Qdiscc, Infiniband...)

This patchs also makes sure (struct qdisc_skb_cb)-&gt;data is aligned on 8
bytes :

netem qdisc for example assumes it can store an u64 in it, without
misalignment penalty.

Note : we only have 20 bytes left in (struct qdisc_skb_cb)-&gt;data[].
The largest user is CHOKe and it fills it.

Based on a previous patch from Tom Herbert.

I applied the wrong version of Jiri's bonding fix in commit
13a8e0c8cdb43982372bd6c65fb26839c8fd8ce9 ("bonding: don't increase
rx_dropped after processing LACPDUs")

I applied v3, which introduces warnings I asked him to fix,
instead of v4 which properly takes care of those issues.

This inter-diffs such that the warnings are now gone.

Since commit 3aba891d, bonding processes LACP frames (802.3ad
mode) with bond_handle_frame(). Currently a copy of the skb is
made and the original is left to be processed by other
rx_handlers and the rest of the network stack by returning
RX_HANDLER_ANOTHER.  As there is no protocol handler for
PKT_TYPE_LACPDU, the frame is dropped and dev-&gt;rx_dropped
increased.

Fix this by making bond_handle_frame() return RX_HANDLER_CONSUMED
if bonding has processed the LACP frame.
