Bond, round robin mis-config​uration.

[Eduard Sinelnikov <eduard.sinelnikov@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

In the kernel 2.6.39.3 ( /drivers/net/bond/bond_main.c).
In the function  ‘bond_xmit_roundrobin’
The code check if the bond is active via
‘bond_is_active_slave(slave)’ Function call.
Which actually checks if the slave is backup or active
What is the meaning of slave being  backup in round robin mode?
Correct me if I wrong but in round robin every slave should send a
packet, regardless of being active or backup.

Thank you,
            Eduard
