selftests: mlxsw: tc_restrictions: Fix test failure with new iproute2

2026-02-13T02:36:08Z

As explained in [1], iproute2 started rejecting tc-police burst sizes that result in an overflow. This can happen when the burst size is high enough and the rate is low enough. A couple of test cases specify such configurations, resulting in iproute2 errors and test failure. Fix by reducing the burst size so that the test will pass with both new and old iproute2 versions.

selftests: forwarding: lib: Add an autodefer variant of simple_if_init()

2025-09-27T00:48:40Z

Most forwarding tests invoke simple_if_init() to set up a VRF-based "host" and simple_if_fini() to tear it down again. Add a helper, adf_simple_if_init(), which is like simple_if_fini(), but takes care of scheduling the cleanup automatically. Convert the tests that currently use defer to schedule the cleanup.

selftests: forwarding: lib: Add an autodefer variant of vrf_prepare()

selftests: forwarding: lib: Split setup_wait()

2025-06-27T00:53:07Z

setup_wait() takes an optional argument and then is called from the top level of the test script. That confuses shellcheck, which thinks that maybe the intention is to pass $1 of the script to the function, which is never the case. To avoid having to annotate every single new test with a SC disable, split the function in two: one that takes a mandatory argument, and one that takes no argument at all. Convert the two existing users of that optional argument, both in Spectrum resource selftest, to use the new form. Clean up vxlan_bridge_1q_mc_ul.sh to not pass a now-unused argument.

selftests: mlxsw: sharedbuffer: Ensure no extra packets are counted

2024-12-07T01:37:37Z

The test assumes that the packet it is sending is the only packet being passed to the device. However, it is not the case and so other packets are filling the buffers as well. Therefore, the test sometimes fails because it is reading a maximum occupancy that is larger than expected. Add egress filters on $h1 and $h2 that will guarantee the above.

selftests: mlxsw: sharedbuffer: Remove duplicate test cases

2024-12-07T01:37:37Z

On both port_tc_ip_test() and port_tc_arp_test(), the max occupancy is checked on $h2 twice, when only the error message is different and does not match the check itself. Remove the two duplicated test cases from the test.

selftests: mlxsw: sharedbuffer: Remove h1 ingress test case

2024-12-07T01:37:37Z

The test is sending only one packet generated with mausezahn from $h1 to $h2. However, for some reason, it is testing for non-zero maximum occupancy in both the ingress pool of $h1 and $h2. The former only passes when $h2 happens to send a packet. Avoid intermittent failures by removing unintentional test case regarding the ingress pool of $h1.

selftests: net: lib: Add kill_process

2024-11-16T00:39:19Z

A number of selftests run processes in the background and need to kill them afterwards. Instead for everyone to open-code the kill / wait / redirect mantra, add a helper in net/lib.sh. Convert existing open-code sites.

selftests: mlxsw: devlink_trap_police: Use defer for test cleanup

2024-10-22T11:33:48Z

Use the defer framework to schedule cleanups as soon as the command is executed. Note that the start_traffic commands in __burst_test() are each sending a fixed number of packets (note the -c flag) and then ending. They therefore do not need a matching stop_traffic.
