How to control the up order of network interfaces?

Question

I have /etc/network/interfaces as follow. Every time the system boots up, the route is wrong so the gateway is not reachable. I'd have to ifdown br0 && ifup br0 to fix the route table and make everything work. How to fix this forever?

auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

auto eth0
iface eth0 inet manual
bond-master bond0

auto eth1
iface eth1 inet manual
bond-master bond0

auto bond0
iface bond0 inet dhcp
 bond-mode balance-tlb
 bond-slaves none

auto br0
iface br0 inet dhcp
 bridge_ports bond0

Edit

This is the route table from ip r s after I reboot the host. There is an extra routing path.

Before restart br0:

default via 10.69.208.129 dev bond0  metric 100 
10.69.208.128/26 dev bond0  proto kernel  scope link  src 10.69.208.172 
10.69.208.128/26 dev br0  proto kernel  scope link  src 10.69.208.172 
169.254.0.0/16 dev br0  scope link  metric 1000 
192.168.1.0/24 dev lxcbr0  proto kernel  scope link  src 192.168.1.1

After restart br0:

default via 10.69.208.129 dev br0  metric 100 
10.69.208.128/26 dev br0  proto kernel  scope link  src 10.69.208.172 
169.254.0.0/16 dev br0  scope link  metric 1000 
192.168.1.0/24 dev lxcbr0  proto kernel  scope link  src 192.168.1.1

Solution

Changing bond0 to manual instead of dhcp, now it works.

If your /etc/network/interfaces file is correct according to the documentation for ifenslave as well as the documentation for bridge-utils then I think it's a "race condition" bug if the interfaces do not come up in the correct order. If there is a mistake in your interfaces file then hopefully someone will be able to provide details in an answer here.

So I don't think "how do I adjust the order?" is really the right way to phrase your question. It's more "why is there a race condition here?"

Should I set bond0 as manual instead of dhcp? I will try next time.
