Re: 2 ports could not bond to a aggregator in 802.3ad mode issue

Yes, you are right. The incorrect behavior is due to we don't setup the lacpdu of switch correctly.
The bonding driver is correct. Thanks for your comment!

I do not believe so.

IEEE 802.3 section 43.3.9 states, in part,

"Links that are not successful candidates for aggregation (e.g.,
links that are attached to other devices that cannot perform aggregation
or links that have been manually configured to be non-aggregatable) are
enabled to operate as individual IEEE 802.3 links. For consistency of
modeling, such a link is regarded as being attached to a compatible
Aggregator that can only be associated with a single link. That is, from
the perspective of Link Aggregation, non-aggregated links are not a
special case; they compose an aggregation with a maximum membership of
one link."

I do not see that it is correct to attach the links to a common
aggregator, as your output indicates that no partner association has
been created (the Partner MAC is all zeroes) and the links are therefore
apparently connected to a device that cannot perform aggregation.
