2025-07-02selftest: net: extend msg_zerocopy test with forwardingWillem de Bruijn
Zerocopy skbs are converted to regular copy skbs when data is queued to a local socket. This happens in the existing test with a sender and receiver communicating over a veth device. Zerocopy skbs are sent without copying if egressing a device. Verify that this behavior is maintained even in the common container setup where data is forwarded over a veth to the physical device. Update msg_zerocopy.sh to 1. Have a dummy network device to simulate a physical device. 2. Have forwarding enabled between veth and dummy. 3. Add a tx-only test that sends out dummy via the forwarding path. 4. Verify the exitcode of the sender, which signals zerocopy success. As dummy drops all packets, this cannot be a TCP connection. Test the new case with unconnected UDP only. Update msg_zerocopy.c to - Accept an argument whether send with zerocopy is expected. - Return an exitcode whether behavior matched that expectation.

2023-12-15selftests/net: optmem_max became per netnsEric Dumazet
/proc/sys/net/core/optmem_max is now per netns, change two tests that were saving/changing/restoring its value on the parent netns. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Reviewed-by: Willem de Bruijn <willemb@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2018-12-03selftests: extend zerocopy tests to udpWillem de Bruijn
Both msg_zerocopy and udpgso_bench have udp zerocopy variants. Exercise these as part of the standard kselftest run. With udp, msg_zerocopy has no control channel. Ensure that the receiver exits after the sender by accounting for the initial delay in starting them (in msg_zerocopy.sh). Signed-off-by: Willem de Bruijn <willemb@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2018-06-04selftests/net: enable msg_zerocopy testWillem de Bruijn
The existing msg_zerocopy test takes additional protocol arguments. Add a variant that takes no arguments and runs all supported variants. Call this from kselftest. Signed-off-by: Willem de Bruijn <willemb@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2017-08-03test: add msg_zerocopy testWillem de Bruijn
Introduce regression test for msg_zerocopy feature. Send traffic from one process to another with and without zerocopy. Evaluate tcp, udp, raw and packet sockets, including variants - udp: corking and corking with mixed copy/zerocopy calls - raw: with and without hdrincl - packet: at both raw and dgram level Test on both ipv4 and ipv6, optionally with ethtool changes to disable scatter-gather, tx checksum or tso offload. All of these can affect zerocopy behavior. The regression test can be run on a single machine if over a veth pair. Then skb_orphan_frags_rx must be modified to be identical to skb_orphan_frags to allow forwarding zerocopy locally. The msg_zerocopy.sh script will setup the veth pair in network namespaces and run all tests. Signed-off-by: Willem de Bruijn <willemb@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
