[Bug 574456] Re: hotplug-style bonding does not work after reboot - "service networking restart" needed to get it working

[Stéphane Graber]

I must admit I only had a quick look through the comments but all the
config I saw there should work fine with the recent changes in Precise.

Would be appreciated if you could test it on Precise (now at alpha-2)
and if it still doesn't work for you, re-open the bug so I spend time
investigating what's going on.

The fixes that went into Precise are currently being backported to
Oneiric (Ubuntu 11.10) in a separate bug. I expect these to land in the
next few weeks.

Title:
  hotplug-style bonding does not work after reboot - "service networking
  restart" needed to get it working

Status in “ifenslave-2.6” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: ifenslave-2.6

  i just installed a fresh ubuntu 10.04 lts and tried to get bonding to
  work.

  i used the hotplug style as  suggested in the release notes ob 10.04 -
  but it only works as long as i don't reboot the system! when the
  system gets rebootet you have to restart networking service.

  kernel version:
  Linux 1004 2.6.32-21-generic-pae #32-Ubuntu SMP Fri Apr 16 09:39:35 UTC 2010 i686 GNU/Linux
  package:
  ifenslave-2.6                       1.1.0-14ubuntu2

  /etc/network/interfaces:
  auto bond0
  iface bond0 inet static
          address 192.168.10.10
          netmask 255.255.255.0
          gateway 192.168.10.1
          bond-slaves none
          bond-mode 1
          bond-miimon 100

  auto eth0
  iface eth0 inet manual
          bond-master bond0
          bond-primary eth0 eth1

  auto eth1
  iface eth1 inet manual
          bond-master bond0
          bond-primary eth0 eth1

  this does not work after reboot of the system!
  when i use the old style with loaded module it works for me.

  working example:
  /etc/modprobe.d/bonding
  install bond0 /sbin/modprobe bonding -o bond0 mode=balance-xor miimon=100

  /etc/network/interfaces:
  auto bond0
  iface bond0 inet static
          address 192.168.10.10
          netmask 255.255.255.0
          gateway 192.168.10.1
          post-up ifenslave bond0 eth0 eth1
          pre-down ifenslave -d bond0 eth0 eth1

  i hope this infos help to get the "hotplug-stlye" version up and
  running even if a system reboots! :-)

  thx
