bcm5700 + bonding problem

[S.H.Lan]

I've goten some probolem from bonding config
the module.conf
-----------------------
alias eth0 bcm5700
alias eth1 bcm5700
alias bond0 bonding
options bonding mode=1 primary=eth1 miimon=100
------------------------
when I restart network service, I just saw some error message from dmesg:

bond0: released all slaves
ip_tables: (C) 2000-2002 Netfilter core team

bond_enslave(): MII and ETHTOOL support not available for interface eth0, and ar
p_interval/arp_ip_target module parameters not specified, thus bonding will not
detect link failures! see bonding.txt for details.
bond0: enslaving eth0 as an active interface with an up link.

bcm5700: eth0 NIC Link is UP, 100 Mbps full duplex
bcm5700: eth1 NIC Link is UP, 100 Mbps full duplex
--------------------
I use ethtool to see the information about eth0
# ethtool -i eth0
driver: bcm5700
version: 7.1.9c
firmware-version:
bus-info: 01:02.0
-----------------------------------
How do I config my module.conf file?? :(

FYI, I ran into this same issue with RHEL 3.0. I was able to solve it by NOT installing the HP-supplied bonding driver. Once I went back to using the built-in kernel bonding.o driver (which required reinstalling some packages since the HP RPM doesn't uninstall gracefully!) , everything worked beautifully.
