The bond works in mode 4, and performs down/up operations on the bond
that is normally negotiated. The probability of bond-> slave_arr is NULL

Test commands:
ifconfig bond1 down
ifconfig bond1 up

The conflict occurs in the following process:

__dev_open (CPU A)
--bond_open
--queue_delayed_work(bond->wq,&bond->ad_work,0);
--bond_update_slave_arr
--bond_3ad_get_active_agg_info

ad_work(CPU B)
--bond_3ad_state_machine_handler
--ad_agg_selection_logic

ad_work runs on cpu B. In the function ad_agg_selection_logic, all
agg->is_active will be cleared. Before the new active aggregator is
selected on CPU B, bond_3ad_get_active_agg_info failed on CPU A,
bond->slave_arr will be set to NULL. The best aggregator in
ad_agg_selection_logic has not changed, no need to update slave arr.

The described issue is a race condition (in that
ad_agg_selection_logic clears agg->is_active under mode_lock, but
bond_open -> bond_update_slave_arr is inspecting agg->is_active outside
the lock). I don't see how the above change will reliably manage this;
the real issue looks to be that bond_update_slave_arr is committing
changes to the array (via bond_reset_slave_arr) based on a racy
inspection of the active aggregator state while it is in flux.

Also, the description of the issue says "The best aggregator in
ad_agg_selection_logic has not changed, no need to update slave arr,"
but the change above does the opposite, and will set update_slave_arr
when the aggregator has not changed (update_slave_arr remains false at
return of ad_agg_selection_logic).

I believe I understand the described problem, but I don't see
how the patch fixes it. I suspect (but haven't tested) that the proper
fix is to acquire mode_lock in bond_update_slave_arr while calling
bond_3ad_get_active_agg_info to avoid conflict with the state machine.

Thank you for your reply. The last patch does have redundant update slave arr.Thank you for your correction.

As you said, holding mode_lock in bond_update_slave_arr while calling bond_3ad_get_active_agg_info can avoid conflictwith the state machine. I have tested this patch, with ifdown/ifup operations for bond or slaves.

But bond_update_slave_arr is expected to hold RTNL only and NO other lock. And it have WARN_ON(lockdep_is_held(&bond->mode_lock)); in bond_update_slave_arr. I'm not sure that holding mode_lock in bond_update_slave_arr while calling bond_3ad_get_active_agg_info is a correct action.
