This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled selftests: bonding: do not set port down when adding to bond to the 6.1-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: selftests-bonding-do-not-set-port-down-when-adding-t.patch and it can be found in the queue-6.1 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit d7b27f0f9c2a4de4109f6bda4aae6edb2b4cc9b7 Author: Hangbin Liu <liuhangbin@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Sat Dec 23 20:59:22 2023 +0800 selftests: bonding: do not set port down when adding to bond [ Upstream commit 61fa2493ca76fd7bb74e13f0205274f4ab0aa696 ] Similar to commit be809424659c ("selftests: bonding: do not set port down before adding to bond"). The bond-arp-interval-causes-panic test failed after commit a4abfa627c38 ("net: rtnetlink: Enslave device before bringing it up") as the kernel will set the port down _after_ adding to bond if setting port down specifically. Fix it by removing the link down operation when adding to bond.
