Title:
  bonding info reports wrong speed

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  New machine, stock 10.04 LTS 64bit build.

  And finally, the wrong info from ifenslave (Speed: 100Mbps)

  
  root@newsztcjptnfs03:~# cat /proc/net/bonding/bond0 
  Ethernet Channel Bonding Driver: v3.7.0 (June 2, 2010)

  Bonding Mode: load balancing (round-robin)
  MII Status: up
  MII Polling Interval (ms): 0
  Up Delay (ms): 0
  Down Delay (ms): 0

  Slave Interface: eth4
  MII Status: up
  Speed: 100 Mbps
  Duplex: full
  Link Failure Count: 0
  Permanent HW addr: 68:05:ca:05:6f:4b
  Slave queue ID: 0

  Slave Interface: eth5
  MII Status: up
  Speed: 100 Mbps
  Duplex: full
  Link Failure Count: 0
  Permanent HW addr: 68:05:ca:05:6f:4a
  Slave queue ID: 0

  
  In short, I believe ifenslave can't handle 10Gig interface speeds?
