[ Upstream commit 0410d07190961ac526f05085765a8d04d926545b ]
When the ARP monitor is used for link detection, ARP replies are validated for all slaves (arp_validate=3) and fail_over_mac is set to active, two slaves of an active-backup bond may get stuck in a state where both of them are active and pass packets that they receive to the bond. This state makes IPv6 duplicate address detection fail. The state is reached thus: 1. The current active slave goes down because the ARP target is not reachable. 2. The current ARP slave is chosen and made active. 3. A new slave is enslaved. This new slave becomes the current active slave and can reach the ARP target. As a result, the current ARP slave stays active after the enslave action has finished and the log is littered with "PROBE BAD" messages:
bond0: PROBE: c_arp ens10 && cas ens11 BAD
The workaround is to remove the slave with "going back" status from the bond and re-enslave it. This issue was encountered when DPDK PMD interfaces were being enslaved to an active-backup bond.
I would be possible to fix the issue in bond_enslave() or bond_change_active_slave() but the ARP monitor was fixed instead to keep most of the actions changing the current ARP slave in the ARP monitor code. The current ARP slave is set as inactive and backup during the commit phase. A new state, BOND_LINK_FAIL, has been introduced for slaves in the context of the ARP monitor. This allows administrators to see how slaves are rotated for sending ARP requests and attempts are made to find a new active slave.
