bonding: fix arp_validate toggling in active-backup mode
There's currently a problem with toggling arp_validate on and off with an active-backup bond. At the moment, you can start up a bond, like so: modprobe bonding mode=1 arp_interval=100 arp_validate=0 arp_ip_targets=192.168.1.1 ip link set bond0 down echo "ens4f0" > /sys/class/net/bond0/bonding/slaves echo "ens4f1" > /sys/class/net/bond0/bonding/slaves ip link set bond0 up ip addr add 192.168.1.2/24 dev bond0 Pings to 192.168.1.1 work just fine. Now turn on arp_validate: echo 1 > /sys/class/net/bond0/bonding/arp_validate Pings to 192.168.1.1 continue to work just fine. Now when you go to turn arp_validate off again, the link falls flat on it's face: echo 0 > /sys/class/net/bond0/bonding/arp_validate dmesg ... [133191.911987] bond0: Setting arp_validate to none (0) [133194.257793] bond0: bond_should_notify_peers: slave ens4f0 [133194.258031] bond0: link status definitely down for interface ens4f0, disabling it [133194.259000] bond0: making interface ens4f1 the new active one [133197.330130] bond0: link status definitely down for interface ens4f1, disabling it [133197.331191] bond0: now running without any active interface! The problem lies in bond_options.c, where passing in arp_validate=0 results in bond->recv_probe getting set to NULL. This flies directly in the face of commit 3fe68df9, which says we need to set recv_probe = bond_arp_recv, even if we're not using arp_validate. Said commit fixed this in bond_option_arp_interval_set, but missed that we can get to that same state in bond_option_arp_validate_set as well. One solution would be to universally set recv_probe = bond_arp_recv here as well, but I don't think bond_option_arp_validate_set has any business touching recv_probe at all, and that should be left to the arp_interval code, so we can just make things much tidier here. Fixes: 3fe68df9 ("bonding: always set recv_probe to bond_arp_rcv in arp monitor") CC: Jay Vosburgh <j.vosburgh@gmail.com> CC: Veaceslav Falico <vfalico@gmail.com> CC: Andy Gospodarek <andy@greyhouse.net> CC: "David S.
