Yes, if I understand your question correctly you can use link bonding. This is supported by the Linux kernel and you do not need an external stack. Which ports on the AM5728 did you want to bond?

Towards the back of this presentation is an example on link bonding.

I want two Gigabit Ethernet ports on AM5728 to be bonded.

Thanks for the pdf link.
I referred the link to pdf, I conclude that link bonding for two Gigabit Ethernet ports can be implemented.
