This is not a blocker, and we would like to deliver this by SNAP1.

Not sure I understand what the desired outcome of this bug is. 

Subscription-manager seem to report interface info for bonding interfaces if they
exist (python-ethtool finds them and we collect them). That info includes the MAC address of the created bonding interface (which seems to depend on what type of bonding is involved). 

for ex:

...
'net.interface.bond0.mac_address' : '52:54:00:07:03:BA'
'net.interface.eth0.ipv4_address' : 'Unknown'
'net.interface.eth0.ipv4_broadcast' : 'Unknown'
'net.interface.eth0.ipv4_netmask' : 'Unknown'
'net.interface.eth0.mac_address' : '52:54:00:07:03:BA'
'net.interface.eth1.ipv4_address' : 'Unknown'
'net.interface.eth1.ipv4_broadcast' : 'Unknown'
'net.interface.eth1.ipv4_netmask' : 'Unknown'
'net.interface.eth1.mac_address' : '52:54:00:66:20:F7'
...

The bug seems to be for rhn-client-tools...?

I'll get a patch together that pulls in the rhn-client-tools /proc/net/bond parsing. I'm not sure we need it for our usage, though it shouldn't hurt anything.

Ah, I see the case where the ethtool info is wrong (one case, "balance-rr" mode
bonding, where ifconfig/ethtool report all the slave interfaces as having the same address as the master bonding interface). 

I'm not really sure why reporting the info that ifconfig/ethool does is wrong though? For our case, I'm just stashing this info as "permanent_mac_address"
along with the ethtool reported info. I don't think either behavior really
affects subscription-manager much.

    785666: For bonded interfaces, find mac address of members
    
    For some modes of ethernet bonding, the mac address of
    the slaves of bonded devices are changed to match the
    mac address of the master. If we detect this scenario,
    also report the "permanent" mac address of the slave
    interfaces. This is a port of code from
    rhn-client-tools

Should land in 1.1.4 or later

setup steps

1. get a vm setup with two nics, you can add the second nic in the details view
of virt-manager. it can be the same setup as the existing one (vnet usually)

2. install system and get it setup as normal

3. Create a bond interface. You can do with with System->Preferences->Network Connections

  3a. Add a connection, choose "Bond" as the connnection type
  3b. On the "Editing Bond Connection" screen, choose "add" to
      add a new interface into the bonded interface
  3c. pick "wired", then add the mac address for eth0 in the
      "Device Mac Address" field, and ok. 
  3d. repeat for eth1

(alternatively, just copy the network config scripts here):

[root@dhcp129-16 ~]# cat /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 
DEVICE="eth0"
MASTER="bond0"
SLAVE="yes"
BOOTPROTO="none"
HWADDR="52:54:00:07:03:BA"
IPV6INIT="yes"
IPV6_AUTOCONF="yes"
NM_CONTROLLED="no"
ONBOOT="no"
TYPE="Ethernet"
[root@dhcp129-16 ~]# cat /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth1
DEVICE=eth1
MASTER=bond0
SLAVE=yes
HWADDR=52:54:00:66:20:F7
TYPE=Ethernet
ONBOOT=no
NM_CONTROLLED=no
BOOTPROTO=none
[root@dhcp129-16 ~]# cat /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-bond0 
DEVICE=bond0
BONDING_OPTS="updelay=0 mode=balance-alb miimon=100 downdelay=0"
BONDING_MASTER=yes
MASTER=yes
BOOTPROTO=dhcp
DEFROUTE=yes
PEERDNS=yes
PEERROUTES=yes
IPV4_FAILURE_FATAL=yes
IPV6INIT=no
ONBOOT=yes
MACADDR="00:22:44:66:03:BA"
NAME="Bond connection 1"

4. make sure "bonding" kernel module is loaded:

     modprobe bonding

(and then restart /etc/init.d/network)

5. You should now have a bond0 interface, in "adaptive-alb" mode with eth0
and eth1. ifconfig output should look something like:
[root@dhcp129-16 ~]# /sbin/ifconfig 
bond0     Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 52:54:00:07:03:BA  
          inet addr:10.13.129.16  Bcast:10.13.129.255  Mask:255.255.254.0

          Interrupt:11 

(you can also verify the bonding mode with cat /proc/net/bonding/bond0, look
for "Bonding Mode")

6. run subscription-manager facts --list

interfaces in the bond should report both a "mac_address" and a "permanent_mac_address". For the "adaptive-alb" case, each of the
eth* interfaces will have mac address that matches there permament_mac_address,
and the hwaddr of the bond0 interface will be one of the eth0 hwaddr.

7. switch bond mode to "round robin"

/sbin/ifdown bond0; echo balance-rr > /sys/class/net/bond0/bonding/mode ; /sbin/ifup bond0

8 run subscription-manager facts --list

now the bond0 interface will have a mac address, and the report mac_address
of eth0 and eth0 will be the same (and match that of the bond0) interface. The
permanent_mac_address should show the address of the card itself.

shown above is eth1's listed mac address changed to bond0's (eth0's) mac address in round robin mode and has a differing permanent mac_address.

This also shows that the permanent_mac_address is now a new fact and that it is properly probed for.  Marking VERIFIED.
