There's currently a problem with toggling arp_validate on and off with an active-backup bond. At the moment, you can start up a bond, like so: modprobe bonding mode=1 arp_interval=100 arp_validate=0 arp_ip_targets=192.168.1.1 ip link set bond0 down echo "ens4f0" > /sys/class/net/bond0/bonding/slaves echo "ens4f1" > /sys/class/net/bond0/bonding/slaves ip link set bond0 up ip addr add 192.168.1.2/24 dev bond0 Pings to 192.168.1.1 work just fine. Now turn on arp_validate: echo 1 > /sys/class/net/bond0/bonding/arp_validate Pings to 192.168.1.1 continue to work just fine. Now when you go to turn arp_validate off again, the link falls flat on it's face: echo 0 > /sys/class/net/bond0/bonding/arp_validate dmesg ... [133191.911987] bond0: Setting arp_validate to none (0) [133194.257793] bond0: bond_should_notify_peers: slave ens4f0 [133194.258031] bond0: link status definitely down for interface ens4f0, disabling it [133194.259000] bond0: making interface ens4f1 the new active one [133197.330130] bond0: link status definitely down for interface ens4f1, disabling it [133197.331191] bond0: now running without any active interface! The problem lies in bond_options.c, where passing in arp_validate=0 results in bond->recv_probe getting set to NULL. This flies directly in the face of commit |

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
