The primary option is only valid for active-backup mode.
+primary_reselect
+
+ Specifies the reselection policy for the primary slave. This
+ affects how the primary slave is chosen to become the active slave
+ when failure of the active slave or recovery of the primary slave
+ occurs. This option is designed to prevent flip-flopping between
+ the primary slave and other slaves. Possible values are:
+
+ always or 0 (default)
+
+ The primary slave becomes the active slave whenever it
+ comes back up.
+
+ better or 1
+
+ The primary slave becomes the active slave when it comes
+ back up, if the speed and duplex of the primary slave is
+ better than the speed and duplex of the current active
+ slave.
+
+ failure or 2
+
+ The primary slave becomes the active slave only if the
+ current active slave fails and the primary slave is up.
+
+ The primary_reselect setting is ignored in two cases:
+
+ If no slaves are active, the first slave to recover is
+ made the active slave.
+
+ When initially enslaved, the primary slave is always made
+ the active slave.
+
+ Changing the primary_reselect policy via sysfs will cause an
+ immediate selection of the best active slave according to the new
+ policy. This may or may not result in a change of the active
+ slave, depending upon the circumstances.
+
+ This option was added for bonding version 3.6.0.
