This is done by adding two new bonding ioctls: one for deviceless commands (an ioctl hook) and one for device oriented commands. Like ethtool, the first u32 value in the data structure will indicate the exact sub-command to be executed. The sets are against the latest netdev-2.4 and net-drivers-2.5-exp trees. -- Amir
