Description CTAC 2006-01-30 06:25:54 UTC 
Description of problem:

bonding driver in fedora's kernel broken
says error when loads and fails when use
--
Debug: sleeping function called from invalid context at mm/slab.c:2126
--
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
kernel-2.6.12-1.1381_FC3
How reproducible:
Always
(all info got from /usr/share/doc/iputils-20020927/README.bonding)
1. put this into /etc/modprobe.conf
===
alias bond0 bonding
options bond0 miimon=1000 mode=balance-alb use_carrier=1 updelay=15000
alias eth0 e100
alias eth1 e100
===
2. create /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-bond0
===
BOOTPROTO=static
BROADCAST="10.128.255.255"
DEVICE=bond0
GATEWAY=10.128.0.1
IPADDR="10.128.0.139"
NETMASK="255.255.0.0"
NETWORK="10.128.0.0"
ONBOOT=yes
USERCTL=no
===
3. create /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0
===
# Intel Corporation 82557/8/9 [Ethernet Pro 100]
BOOTPROTO=none
DEVICE=eth0
HWADDR=00:A0:C9:4B:10:A9
MASTER=bond0
ONBOOT=yes
SLAVE=yes
USERCTL=no
===
4.  create /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth1
===
# Intel Corporation 82557/8/9 [Ethernet Pro 100]
BOOTPROTO=none
DEVICE=eth1
HWADDR=00:A0:C9:B8:89:0C
MASTER=bond0
ONBOOT=yes
SLAVE=yes
USERCTL=no
===
5. reboot ;-)

But everything is OK with my network
Comment 1 Dave Jones 2006-02-03 19:21:41 UTC 
With the release of Fedora Core 5 test2, FC3 has now reached end-of-life.
The fedora-legacy team provide security updates for older releases, but not
general bug fixes due to limited resources.

If you can reproduce this bug with Fedora Core 4, please feel free to reopen
this bug.
