Daniel Borkmann 23a9544206 selftests: net: add PF_PACKET TPACKET v1/v2/v3 selftests This patch adds a simple test case that probes the packet socket's TPACKET_V1, TPACKET_V2 and TPACKET_V3 behavior regarding mmap(2)'ed I/O for a small burst of 100 packets. The test currently runs for ... TPACKET_V1: RX_RING, TX_RING TPACKET_V2: RX_RING, TX_RING TPACKET_V3: RX_RING ... and will output on success: test: TPACKET_V1 with PACKET_RX_RING .................... 100 pkts (9600 bytes) test: TPACKET_V1 with PACKET_TX_RING .................... 100 pkts (9600 bytes) test: TPACKET_V2 with PACKET_RX_RING .................... 100 pkts (9600 bytes) test: TPACKET_V2 with PACKET_TX_RING .................... 100 pkts (9600 bytes) test: TPACKET_V3 with PACKET_RX_RING .................... 100 pkts (9600 bytes) OK. All tests passed Reusable parts of psock_fanout.c have been put into a psock_lib.h file for common usage. Test case successfully tested on x86_64.

Linux Kernel Selftests

The kernel contains a set of "self tests" under the tools/testing/selftests/
directory. These are intended to be small unit tests to exercise individual
code paths in the kernel.

Running the selftests
=====================

To build the tests:

  $ make -C tools/testing/selftests


To run the tests:

  $ make -C tools/testing/selftests run_tests

- note that some tests will require root privileges.


To run only tests targetted for a single subsystem:

  $  make -C tools/testing/selftests TARGETS=cpu-hotplug run_tests

See the top-level tools/testing/selftests/Makefile for the list of all possible
targets.


Contributing new tests
======================

In general, the rules for for selftests are

 * Do as much as you can if you're not root;

 * Don't take too long;

 * Don't break the build on any architecture, and

 * Don't cause the top-level "make run_tests" to fail if your feature is
   unconfigured.
