From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: David Lamparter Subject: [PATCH 1/2] bridge: ignore pause & bonding frames Date: Wed, 29 Jun 2011 00:03:18 +0200 Message-ID: <1309298599-11266-1-git-send-email-equinox@diac24.net> References: <20110628214637.GE2121496@jupiter.n2.diac24.net> Cc: Nick Carter , David Lamparter , Stephen Hemminger , davem@davemloft.net To: netdev@vger.kernel.org Return-path: Received: from spaceboyz.net ([87.106.131.203]:37239 "EHLO spaceboyz.net" rhost-flags-OK-OK-OK-OK) by vger.kernel.org with ESMTP id S1752401Ab1F1WDr (ORCPT ); Tue, 28 Jun 2011 18:03:47 -0400 In-Reply-To: <20110628214637.GE2121496@jupiter.n2.diac24.net> Sender: netdev-owner@vger.kernel.org List-ID: this patch adds bonding frames to the special treatment party and has both pause and bonding frames delivered on the underlying bridge member device. we thus become 802.1AX section 5.2.1 compliant which quite clearly has the link aggregation directly on top of the MAC layer, below any bridging. the matching is changed to mimic hardware switches, which match 802.3x/pause and 802.3ad/lacp by the hardware address (keep in mind the existence of LLC/SNAP headers). Signed-off-by: David Lamparter --- note: this should actually fix some issues i was having with bridging screwing up my bonding. i've resolved those by "brouting" LACP frames in ebtables...
