Subject: selftests: forwarding: Switch off timeout
From: Ido Schimmel <idosch@xxxxxxxxxx>
commit 0529883ad102f6c04e19fb7018f31e1bda575bbe upstream.
The default timeout for selftests is 45 seconds, but it is not enough
for forwarding selftests which can takes minutes to finish depending on
the number of tests cases:
# make -C tools/testing/selftests TARGETS=net/forwarding run_tests
TAP version 13
1..102
# timeout set to 45
# selftests: net/forwarding: bridge_igmp.sh
# TEST: IGMPv2 report 239.10.10.10 [ OK ]
# TEST: IGMPv2 leave 239.10.10.10 [ OK ]
# TEST: IGMPv3 report 239.10.10.10 is_include [ OK ]
# TEST: IGMPv3 report 239.10.10.10 include -> allow [ OK ]
#
not ok 1 selftests: net/forwarding: bridge_igmp.sh # TIMEOUT 45 seconds
Fix by switching off the timeout and setting it to 0. A similar change
was done for BPF selftests in commit 6fc5916cc256 ("selftests: bpf:
Switch off timeout").
