[PATCH 2/4] bond_alb: don't rewrite bridged non-local MACs

From: Jarod Wilson
Date: Tue May 18 2021 - 17:09:32 EST


With a virtual machine behind a bridge on top of a bond, outgoing traffic
should retain the VM's source MAC. That works fine most of the time, until
doing a failover, and then the MAC gets rewritten to the bond slave's MAC,
and the return traffic gets dropped. If we don't rewrite the MAC there, we
don't lose any traffic.
