Subject: [Devel] [PATCH hci-8.1 v4 3/3] selftests/bpf: run the xsk veth tests in a network namespace of their own
Date: Tue, 27 Oct 2026 19:15:21 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261027-b4-prep-khorenko-vstor-150731-xsk-veth-netns-v4-3-c74cad570c70@virtuozzo.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261027-b4-prep-khorenko-vstor-150731-xsk-veth-netns-v4-0-c74cad570c70@virtuozzo.com>
From: Eva Kurchatova <eva.kurchatova@virtuozzo.com>
test_xsk.sh makes its veth pair in the namespace it runs in, and the
host treats it as any new interface: address configuration, neighbour
discovery and the like happen on that pair. The AF_XDP sockets under
test receive the host's packets among their own. The tests count and
inspect what they receive, so they fail on a configured host and pass
on a bare one.
Re-run the veth part in an unnamed network namespace with a sysfs of its
own, which the busy poll setup writes to. The namespace goes away with
its last process however the run ends, and takes the pair with it.
With -d the pair has to outlive the run, so the namespace gets a name,
and the script prints how to enter and delete it.
If no network namespace can be created, the tests are skipped, as
without veth or ip. A failure after that, mounting sysfs in the
namespace included, fails the run.
