selftests/bpf: Add tc helpers

2025-10-29T18:07:24Z

The test_tunnel.c file defines small fonctions to easily attach eBPF programs to tc hooks, either on egress, ingress or both. Create a shared helper in network_helpers.c so that other tests can benefit from it.

selftests/bpf: Allow assigning traffic monitor print function

Allow users to change traffic monitor's print function. If not provided, traffic monitor will print to stdout by default. Signed-off-by: Amery Hung Signed-off-by: Martin KaFai Lau Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20250305182057.2802606-2-ameryhung@gmail.com Signed-off-by: Alexei Starovoitov

selftests/bpf: Move open_tuntap to network helpers

2025-03-06T20:31:08Z

To test the XDP metadata functionality of the tun driver, it's necessary to create a new tap device first. A helper function for this already exists in lwt_helpers.h. Move it to the common network helpers header, so it can be reused in other tests.

selftests/bpf: helpers: Add append_tid()

2025-02-03T11:33:51Z

Some tests can't be run in parallel because they use same namespace names or veth names. Create an helper that appends the thread ID to a given string. 8 characters are used for it (7 digits + '\0') Signed-off-by: Bastien Curutchet (eBPF Foundation) Signed-off-by: Martin KaFai Lau Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20250131-redirect-multi-v4-1-970b33678512@bootlin.com Signed-off-by: Alexei Starovoitov

selftests/bpf: add network helpers to generate udp checksums

2024-12-02T16:41:17Z

network_helpers.c provides some helpers to generate ip checksums or ip pseudo-header checksums, but not for upper layers (eg: udp checksums) Add helpers for udp checksum to allow manually building udp packets.

selftests/bpf: document pseudo-header checksum helpers

2024-12-02T16:41:16Z

network_helpers.h provides helpers to compute checksum for pseudo headers but no helpers to compute the global checksums. Before adding those, clarify csum_tcpudp_magic and csum_ipv6_magic purpose by adding some documentation.

selftests/bpf: add missing header include for htons

2024-10-08T17:40:33Z

Including the network_helpers.h header in tests can lead to the following build error: ./network_helpers.h: In function ‘csum_tcpudp_magic’: ./network_helpers.h:116:14: error: implicit declaration of function \ ‘htons’ [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration] 116 | s += htons(proto + len); The error is avoided in many cases thanks to some other headers included earlier and bringing in arpa/inet.h (ie: test_progs.h). Make sure that test_progs build success does not depend on header ordering by adding the missing header include in network_helpers.h Fixes: f6642de0c3e9 ("selftests/bpf: Add csum helpers") Signed-off-by: Alexis Lothoré (eBPF Foundation) Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20241008-network_helpers_fix-v1-1-2c2ae03df7ef@bootlin.com Signed-off-by: Martin KaFai Lau
