Current Linux Bonding driver supports IEEE802.3ad-2000.
Operation across multiple data rates—
All links in a Link Aggregation Group operate at the same data rate.
In IEEE802.1AX-2014
Aggregation of links of different data rates is not prohibited
nor required by this standard.
This patch provides configuration option to allow aggregation of links
with different speed.
Enhancement is disabled by default and can be enabled thru

The -2014 and -2020 versions change a lot of things at once; I'm
not sure we can just cherry pick out one thing (or maybe we can, I'm
reading through the changes). Notably, the -2020 version states, in
reference to changes added at -2014,
"[...] it explicitly allowed the aggregation of point-to-point links of
any speed using any physical media or logical connection capable of
supporting the Internal Sublayer Service specified in IEEE Std
802.1AC."
whereas the -2008 standard specifies "CSMA/CD MACs" instead of
the ISS from 802.1AC. I'm not yet sure if this makes any relevant
difference.
>This patch provides configuration option to allow aggregation of links
>with different speed.
Have you tested all of the edge cases? E.g., what is the
behavior with and without the option enabled when an interface in an
aggregator changes its speed?
If you have tests, consider including test scripts in
tools/testing/selftests/drivers/net/bonding/
>Enhancement is disabled by default and can be enabled thru

New option settings like this require (a) support in iproute2
(to set/get the option like any other bonding option), and (b) updates
to the documentation (Documentation/networking/bonding.rst).
I'm not completely sold on the name, either, "async" doesn't
really describe "differing data rates" in my mind. Perhaps an option
named "ad_link_speed" with allowed values of "same" or "any"?

-Jay Vosburgh, [email protected]
Thanks Jay for reviewing patch request.
We decided not to move forward.
Instead of adding different speed links to one aggregator,
we can assign them to multiple aggregators and use ad_select=bandwidth
to pick highest bandwidth aggregator.
Thanks

In current code, when 2nd port is linked up with different speed,
it will not be part of active aggregator.
