The overhead in memory/CPU is minimal, and after the patchset bonding can rely on its slave-related functions, given the proper locking. I've done some netperf benchmarks on a vm, and the delta was about 0.1gbps for 35gbps as a whole, so no speed fluctuations. It also automatically creates lower/upper and master symlinks in dev's sysfs directory. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller --- aae8c287e664d49df4aa315ad263c33b9a2af3e1
