bonding driver issue

[pkking]

Hi, everyone.

In my Centos 6.4 with kernel version 2.6.32-220, recently i found the driver do not remove the IFF_BONDING flag after rmmod.

But i trace the code and found the function bond_release_all just remove three flags such as IFF_MASTER_8023AD, IFF_MASTER_ALB, IFF_SLAVE_INACTIVE

while the function bond_release will remove the flag IFF_BONDING and IFF_SLAVE_NEEDARP instead which means the dev were not bonding device any more.

Is this a BUG in kernel 2.6.32 because it seems not happened in suse11 sp3 because its kernel version is 3.0.xx.

Any suggestions are appreciated !!

CentOS 6.4 is old and unsupported.
Run "yum update" to update to the current 6.6 kernel and software.
6.7 is just around the corner.
You are running with over a years worth of critical security issues.

Thanks the advice, i update the kernel to 2.6.32-504 just now.

But the function of bond_release_all in bond_main.c seem to be the same as 2.6.32-220.
