From: Jay Vosburgh Date: Sat, 14 Jun 2008 01:12:04 +0000 (-0700) Subject: bonding: Allow setting max_bonds to zero X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=b8a9787eddb0e4665f31dd1d64584732b2b5d051;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git bonding: Allow setting max_bonds to zero Permit bonding to function rationally if max_bonds is set to zero. This will load the module, but create no master devices (which can be created via sysfs). Requires some change to bond_create_sysfs; currently, the netdev sysfs directory is determined from the first bonding device created, but this is no longer possible. Instead, an interface from net/core is created to create and destroy files in net_class. Based on a patch submitted by Phil Oester . Modified by Jay Vosburgh to fix the sysfs issue mentioned above and to update the documentation.
