At present there is an issue when ocelot is offloading a bonding interface, but one of the links of the physical ports goes down. Traffic keeps being hashed towards that destination, and of course gets dropped on egress. Monitor the netdev notifier events emitted by the bonding driver for changes in the physical state of lower interfaces, to determine which ports are active and which ones are no longer. Then extend ocelot_get_bond_mask to return either the configured bonding interfaces, or the active ones, depending on a boolean argument. The code that does rebalancing only needs to do so among the active ports, whereas the bridge forwarding mask and the logical port IDs still need to look at the permanently bonded ports.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
