Previously, the actor would stop sending LACPDUs after initial negotiation succeeded, leading to the partner timing out and restarting the negotiation cycle. This resulted in continuous LACP state flapping. The fix ensures the passive actor starts sending periodic LACPDUs after receiving the first LACPDU from the partner, in accordance with IEEE 802.1AX-2020 section 6.4.1. ==================== Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20250815062000.22220-1-liuhangbin@gmail.com Signed-off-by: Paolo Abeni --- 184fa9d704bd6b96979ff57eed9e8c51203bec57
