I just started taking a look at the existing bonding driver and evaluating what work needs to be done to support ipoib driver below it. It seems to me like a lot of pieces for this approach are readily available (ifenslave and other logic) etc and besides I guess that will keep one standard approach of doing bonding in linux. I also assume that while the ipoib gets enslaved, it will get enough opportunity to take right set of steps for its present connections and traffic etc. I might be wrong here though. Would like to hear from other members about this one.
i took a quick look at this a little while ago (admittedly with gen1 IPoIB) and when trying to enslave the ib0, ib1 interfaces the bonding driver complains about an unsupported ioctl. i didn't have any time to track it down much further than that. if there's some interest i could take a bit more of a look at it.
