The following scenario was encountered during testing of logical partition mobility on pseries partitions with bonded ibmvnic adapters in LACP mode. 1. Driver receives a signal that the device has been swapped, and it needs to reset to initialize the new device. 2. Driver reports loss of carrier and begins initialization. 3. Bonding driver receives NETDEV_CHANGE notifier and checks the slave's current speed and duplex settings. Because these are unknown at the time, the bond sets its link state to BOND_LINK_FAIL and handles the speed update, clearing AD_PORT_LACP_ENABLE. 4. Driver finishes recovery and reports that the carrier is on. 5. Bond receives a new notification and checks the speed again. The speeds are valid but miimon has not altered the link state yet. AD_PORT_LACP_ENABLE remains off. Because the slave's link state is still BOND_LINK_FAIL, no further port checks are made when it recovers. Though the slave devices are operational and have valid speed and duplex settings, the bond will not send LACPDU's. The simplest fix I can see is to force another speed check in bond_miimon_commit. This way the bond will update AD_PORT_LACP_ENABLE if needed when transitioning from BOND_LINK_FAIL to BOND_LINK_UP.
