Subject: [PATCH installer v4 18/30] gui: network: add bond setup options to advanced options dialog
Date: Mon, 2 Nov 2026 13:45:24 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261102124539.1008075-19-c.heiss@proxmox.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261102124539.1008075-1-c.heiss@proxmox.com>
Partially fixes #2164 [0].
Adds a second frame to the advanced network options dialog, allowing to
enable bonding and setting all the required options for it; such as
members, mode, hash policy and primary bond member, as required.

Changes v3 -> v4:
* don't expand checkbox and grid, which resulted in unnecessary padding
and dialog size
Changes v2 -> v3:
* incorporate changes from @Thomas;
* resolve the primary interface name to its MAC address also without
pinning
* clear primary interface if empty or not applicable to the mode
* keep the selected physical management interface instead of
overriding it with 'bond0', so that going back and disabling bonding
works,
* list the interfaces sorted
* only show the bond summary in place of the interface selection if
bonding is enabled
* use the current pinned names for the member labels, only from
physical links, and keep underscores, e.g. in driver names, in them
Changes v1 -> v2:
* fix passing an undefined index to GTK when having a bond setup and
switching between installer steps
