From: Po-Hsu Lin <po-hsu.lin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit f6e9ceb7a7fc321a31a9dde93a99b7b4b016a3b3 ] When running this xfrm_policy.sh test script, even with some cases marked as FAIL, the overall test result will still be PASS: $ sudo ./xfrm_policy.sh PASS: policy before exception matches FAIL: expected ping to .254 to fail (exceptions) PASS: direct policy matches (exceptions) PASS: policy matches (exceptions) FAIL: expected ping to .254 to fail (exceptions and block policies) PASS: direct policy matches (exceptions and block policies) PASS: policy matches (exceptions and block policies) FAIL: expected ping to .254 to fail (exceptions and block policies after hresh changes) PASS: direct policy matches (exceptions and block policies after hresh changes) PASS: policy matches (exceptions and block policies after hresh changes) FAIL: expected ping to .254 to fail (exceptions and block policies after hthresh change in ns3) PASS: direct policy matches (exceptions and block policies after hthresh change in ns3) PASS: policy matches (exceptions and block policies after hthresh change in ns3) FAIL: expected ping to .254 to fail (exceptions and block policies after htresh change to normal) PASS: direct policy matches (exceptions and block policies after htresh change to normal) PASS: policy matches (exceptions and block policies after htresh change to normal) PASS: policies with repeated htresh change $ echo $? 0 This is because the $lret in check_xfrm() is not a local variable. Therefore when a test failed in check_exceptions(), the non-zero $lret will later get reset to 0 when the next test calls check_xfrm(). With this fix, the final return value will be 1. Make it easier for testers to spot this failure.
