Subject: ifenslave uses obsolete /sys/class/net/{bond}/slave_ naming

Date: Thu, 09 Jul 2015 14:16:26 +0200

[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Package: ifenslave
Version: 2.6
Severity: important
Tags: patch

Dear Maintainer,

Starting with kernel 3.13
(commit http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-stable.git/commit/?id=5831d66e8097aedfa3bc35941cf265ada2352317),
 /sys/class/net/{bond}/slave_{ifname} (notice the slave_) no longer exist.

It has been replaced by /sys/class/net/{bond}/lower_{ifname}. The proposed patch adds
support for the new naming while remaining backward compatible.

Without this patch, trying to add a bond when this one is already defined
leads to the following obscure error :

root@sid-ifenslave:/sbin# ifenslave bond0 eth1 eth2
sh: echo: I/O error
eth1: could not add interface

commit c4ce52c
Author: Dmitry Smirnov <onlyjob@member.fsf.org>
Date:   Mon Jul 13 11:02:41 2015

    Fix change in /sys/class/net/{bond}/slave_ naming after k3.13 (Closes: #791906)
    
     Starting in kernel 3.13, slave_{ifname} is no longer present and
     has been replaced by lower_{ifname}. Take this change into account
     to avoid ambiguous error when ifenslave is run with existing bond
     defined.
