Testing network kernel module

[Julio Faracco <jcfaracco@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi everyone.

Does anyone know a good way to test the tx_timeout function from the net_device_ops struct?

In other words, I want to force a timeout exception to check if my code is doing what I expect.

To test it, I'm avoiding the clean up of the output buffer. So, when the buffer is full the module throws a timeout exception. But, I'm not right if it is the right way to test it or simulate a timeout.

Suggestions?

Thanks!
