2025-03-06selftests/bpf: Refactor xdp_context_functional test and bpf programMarcus Wichelmann
The existing XDP metadata test works by creating a veth pair and attaching XDP & TC programs that drop the packet when the condition of the test isn't fulfilled. The test then pings through the veth pair and succeeds when the ping comes through. While this test works great for a veth pair, it is hard to replicate for tap devices to test the XDP metadata support of them. A similar test for the tun driver would either involve logic to reply to the ping request, or would have to capture the packet to check if it was dropped or not. To make the testing of other drivers easier while still maximizing code reuse, this commit refactors the existing xdp_context_functional test to use a test_result map. Instead of conditionally passing or dropping the packet, the TC program is changed to copy the received metadata into the value of that single-entry array map. Tests can then verify that the map value matches the expectation. This testing logic is easy to adapt to other network drivers as the only remaining requirement is that there is some way to send a custom Ethernet packet through it that triggers the XDP & TC programs. The Ethernet header of that custom packet is all-zero, because it is not required to be valid for the test to work. The zero ethertype also helps to filter out packets that are not related to the test and would otherwise interfere with it. The payload of the Ethernet packet is used as the test data that is expected to be passed as metadata from the XDP to the TC program and written to the map. It has a fixed size of 32 bytes which is a reasonable size that should be supported by both drivers. Additional packet headers are not necessary for the test and were therefore skipped to keep the testing code short. This new testing methodology no longer requires the veth interfaces to have IP addresses assigned, therefore these were removed.

2024-12-16selftests/bpf: test_xdp_meta: Rename BPF sectionsBastien Curutchet
SEC("t") and SEC("x") can't be loaded by the __load() helper. Rename these sections SEC("tc") and SEC("xdp") so they can be interpreted by the __load() helper in upcoming patch. Update the test_xdp_meta.sh to fit these new names.

2020-01-20selftests: Use consistent include paths for libbpfToke Høiland-Jørgensen
Fix all selftests to include libbpf header files with the bpf/ prefix, to be consistent with external users of the library. Also ensure that all includes of exported libbpf header files (those that are exported on 'make install' of the library) use bracketed includes instead of quoted. To not break the build, keep the old include path until everything has been changed to the new one; a subsequent patch will remove that.

2019-02-11selftests: bpf: centre kernel bpf objects under new subdir "progs"Jiong Wang
At the moment, all kernel bpf objects are listed under BPF_OBJ_FILES. Listing them manually sometimes causing patch conflict when people are adding new testcases simultaneously. It is better to centre all the related source files under a subdir "progs", then auto-generate the object file list.
