[Xen-users] Q: bonding in Dom0: lack of ethtool functionality
Hi, the "e1000" driver definitely supports ethtool functionality outside of Dom0. However, inside of Dom0, the ethtool fails to provide information. Now when configuring bonding, the bonding driver seems to have some problems with that lack of functionality: ifup: bond0 kernel: bonding: bond0 is being created... kernel: bonding: bond0: Setting MII monitoring interval to 500. kernel: bonding: bond0: Setting down delay to 3000. kernel: bonding: bond0: Setting up delay to 5000. kernel: bonding: bond0: setting mode to 802.3ad (4). kernel: bonding: bond0: Setting use_carrier to 1. ifup: bond0 enslaving interfaces: eth0 kernel: bonding: bond0: Warning: failed to get speed and duplex from eth0, assumed to be 100Mb/sec and Full. kernel: bonding: bond0: Warning: Operation of 802.3ad mode requires ETHTOOL support in base driver for proper aggregator selection. kernel: bonding: bond0: enslaving eth0 as a backup interface with an up link. ifup-dhcp: Starting DHCP Client Daemon on bond0... ifup-dhcp: . kernel: bonding: bond0: Error: bond_3ad_get_active_agg_info failed [...] Do we have to live with that?
