[Lustre-discuss] Bug 20153 - o2ib configuration issues with IB bonding

[Kevin Van Maren]

AFAIK, it will not be in 1.8.5.

While UNSUPORTED, you can pull the bonding-related patches from 
bugzilla, or from git:

To get (old) versions of the patches (should work with OFED 
1.4.1/1.4.2), try:

# git branch LOCAL-TEST v1_8_4
Note that you could instead try v1_8_5_RC3 if you wanted

# git checkout LOCAL-TEST
# git cherry-pick c4495e86685937f1fc17cd60baeda2360e0ad1b2
# git cherry-pick b9a4be24c31ee7c4c09638a9988d107172ab5fe8
# git cherry-pick dbe9bd661b8207c8206120d05fbca712fac7859e
(the first one is only so that the later cherry-pick merges automatically).

Do note that even if only the servers are bonded, the _clients_ also 
need these patches.
