RSTP is very simple thing. And it is general solution suitable for IPv4, IPv6,
vlan trunk, PPPoE, IPX or anything else because it deals with links at layer 2.

I would not call RSTP "simple" compared to sending a single broadcast frame (of
any protocol) out on the new active NIC on a failover, especially not once you
consider that to use it you have to

"single broadcast frame" won't work for all cases, f.e. multiple vlans over
lagg but RSTP will. And there is no rocket science in creating bridge as RSTP
runs

Each switch has its "MAC aging" time, so one may configure switch so that it
does not "take ages to see traffic flowing again".
And yes, lagg's failover

Yes, but each switch has different default and miniumum values.
Fortiswitch: 10s, HP Procurve 60s, don't know about cisco.
So that would mean XXs no service in case of a failover which may be

Yes, and one should not depend on default values but configure switches as
required.

The patch could probably be simplified. I suggested when I created the case
four years ago that the solution might be to send out a gratuitous ARP.
However, that would not seem to be a correct

Whqt would be the correct setup using 1 Server, 2 Nics and 2 non stacked
Switches to achive a basic failover scenario for IPv4 ? RSTP (as STP usually
is) sounds too complicated for this.

In this case it's not even a case of a protocol though, it's rather just some
functionality to prod even the dumbest stack of switches that are smart enough

Maybe the smaller patch from

Yes, but if you have the following setup:

In case of real failure, physical link goes down and switch updates its table

AFAIK, link aggregation (lagg) is not supposed to be used this way, without
special switch configuration. And lagg IS usable if you do things right:
