[PATCH net 0/2] bonding: fix LACP negotiation issues in passive mode
Posted by Hangbin Liu 3 months ago
This patchset fixes an issue where bonding fails to establish a stable LACP
negotiation when operating in passive mode (lacp_active=off).

In passive mode, the current implementation only replies when the partner's
state changes, which results in LACP timeout and unstable aggregator formation.

With this change, the bond responds to each received LACPDU in passive mode
by setting ntt = true, ensuring timely replies and stable LACP negotiation.

Hangbin Liu (2):
  bonding: update ntt to true in passive mode
  selftests: bonding: add test for passive LACP mode
