2024-03-28selftests: forwarding.config.sample: Move overrides to lib.shPetr Machata
forwarding.config.sample, net/lib.sh and net/forwarding/lib.sh contain definitions and redefinitions of some of the same variables. The overlap between net/forwarding/lib.sh and forwarding.config.sample is especially large. This duplication is a potential source of confusion and problems. It would be overall less error prone if each variable were defined in one place only. In this patch set, that place is the library itself. Therefore move all comments from forwarding.config.sample to net/forwarding/lib.sh. Move over also a definition of TC_FLAG, which was missing from lib.sh entirely. Additionally, add to lib.sh a default definition of the topology variables. The logic behind this is that forgetting to specify forwarding.config was a frequent source of frustration for the selftest users. But really, most of the time the default veth based topology is just fine. We considered just sourcing forwarding.config.sample instead if forwarding.config is not available, but this is a cleaner solution. That means the syntax of the forwarding.config.sample override has to change to an array assignment, so that the whole variable is overwritten, not just individual keys, which could leave the value of some keys unchanged. Do the same in lib.sh for any cut'n'pasters out there. The config file is then given a sort of carte blanche to redefine whatever variables it sees fit from the libraries. This is described in a comment in the file. Only a handful of variables are left behind, to illustrate the customization. The fact that the variables are now missing from forwarding.config.sample, and therefore would miss from forwarding.config derived from that file as well, should not change anything. This is just the sample file. Users that keep their own forwarding.config would retain it as before. The only observable change is introduction of TC_FLAG to lib.sh, because now the filters would not be attempted to install to HW datapath. For veth pairs this does not change anything. For HW deployments, users presumably have forwarding.config with this value overridden.

2024-03-05selftests: forwarding: Parametrize mausezahn delayIdo Schimmel
The various multipath tests use mausezahn to generate different flows and check how they are distributed between the available nexthops. The tool is currently invoked with an hard coded transmission delay of 1 ms. This is unnecessary when the tests are run with veth pairs and needlessly prolongs the tests. Parametrize this delay and default it to 0 us. It can be overridden using the forwarding.config file. On my system, this reduces the run time of router_multipath.sh by 93%.

2021-12-13selftest/net/forwarding: declare NETIFS p9 p10Hangbin Liu
The recent GRE selftests defined NUM_NETIFS=10. If the users copy forwarding.config.sample to forwarding.config directly, they will get error "Command line is not complete" when run the GRE tests, because create_netif_veth() failed with no interface name defined. Fix it by extending the NETIFS with p9 and p10.

Commit bdb7cc643fc9 ("ipv6: Count interface receive statistics on the ingress netdev") does not work when ip6_forward() executes on the skbs with vrf-enslaved netdev.

2021-10-08testing: selftests: forwarding.config.sample: Add tc flagAmit Cohen
Add TC_FLAG value to tests topology. This flag supposed to be skip_sw/skip_hw which means do not filter by software/hardware. This can be useful for adding tests to forwarding directory, and be able to verify that packets go through the hardware. When the flag is not set or set to 'skip_hw', tests can still be executed with veth pairs.
