[PATCH 1/4] bonding: add pure source-mac-based tx hashing option
From: Jarod Wilson
Date: Tue May 18 2021 - 17:09:20 EST
As it turns out, a pure source-mac only tx hash has a place for some VM
setups. The previously added vlan+srcmac hash doesn't work as well for a
VM with a single MAC and multiple vlans -- these types of setups path
traffic more efficiently if the load is split by source mac alone.

+ This policy uses a very rudimentary source mac hash to
+ load-balance traffic per-source-mac, with failover should
+ one leg fail. The intended use case is for a bond shared

The default value is layer2. This option was added in bonding
version 2.6.3. In earlier versions of bonding, this parameter
does not exist, and the layer2 policy is the only policy. The
