Binary package hint: ifenslave-2.6
In Karmic and Lucid the option bond_mode in /etc/network/interfaces is ignored. It used to work before, and also according to the documentation on the website and for example /usr/share/doc/ifenslave-2.6/README.Debian in Lucid.
For example I have
auto bond2
iface bond2 inet static
slaves eth1 eth2
address 192.168.5.24
netmask 255.255.255.0
network 192.168.5.0
broadcast 192.168.5.255
bond_mode 5
But this gives me a mode 0 bond. I had to add 'options bonding mode=5' to /etc/modprobe.d/bonding.conf to get a mode 5 bond. |

SRU justification: the release notes and examples point users at the correct way to do it, but the README.Debian, which is usually the first place for experienced users to look, describes the wrong way to use the package. Since this is important enough to have in the release notes, it's also worth an SRU to update our other in-package documentation.
TEST CASE:
1. follow /usr/share/doc/ifenslave-2.6/README.Debian in lucid
2. reboot
3. observe that this fails to work
4. follow /usr/share/doc/ifenslave-2.6/README.Debian in lucid-proposed
5. reboot
6. confirm that this brings up a bonded interface
The patch is trivial and only affects documentation; the only regression potential is from latent rebuild bugs. |
