From: Mahesh Bandewar <maheshb@google.com> [ Upstream commit 5d485ed88d48f8101a2067348e267c0aaf4ed486 ] After the recent fix in commit 1899bb325149 ("bonding: fix state transition issue in link monitoring"), the active-backup mode with miimon initially come-up fine but after a link-failure, both members transition into backup state. Following steps to reproduce the scenario (eth1 and eth2 are the slaves of the bond): ip link set eth1 up ip link set eth2 down sleep 1 ip link set eth2 up ip link set eth1 down cat /sys/class/net/eth1/bonding_slave/state cat /sys/class/net/eth2/bonding_slave/state Fixes: 1899bb325149 ("bonding: fix state transition issue in link monitoring") CC: Jay Vosburgh <jay.vosburgh@canonical.com> Signed-off-by: Mahesh Bandewar <maheshb@google.com> Acked-by: Jay Vosburgh <jay.vosburgh@canonical.com> Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <jakub.kicinski@netronome.com> Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin <sashal@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Yang Yingliang <yangyingliang@huawei.com> --- drivers/net/bonding/bond_main.c | 3 --- 1 file changed, 3 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/net/bonding/bond_main.c b/drivers/net/bonding/bond_main.c index 9b8143d..f57b86f1 100644 --- a/drivers/net/bonding/bond_main.c +++ b/drivers/net/bonding/bond_main.c @@ -2223,9 +2223,6 @@ static void bond_miimon_commit(struct bonding *bond) } else if (BOND_MODE(bond) != BOND_MODE_ACTIVEBACKUP) { /* make it immediately active */ bond_set_active_slave(slave); - } else if (slave != primary) { - /* prevent it from being the active one */ - bond_set_backup_slave(slave); } netdev_info(bond->dev, "link status definitely up for interface %s, %u Mbps %s duplex\n", -- 1.8.3
