[ Upstream commit e7f31873176a345d72ca77c7b4da48493ccd9efd ]
Recently, when running './test_progs -j', I occasionally hit the
following errors:
test_lwt_redirect:PASS:pthread_create 0 nsec
test_lwt_redirect_run:FAIL:netns_create unexpected error: 256 (errno 0)
#142/2 lwt_redirect/lwt_redirect_normal_nomac:FAIL
#142 lwt_redirect:FAIL
test_lwt_reroute:PASS:pthread_create 0 nsec
test_lwt_reroute_run:FAIL:netns_create unexpected error: 256 (errno 0)
test_lwt_reroute:PASS:pthread_join 0 nsec
#143/2 lwt_reroute/lwt_reroute_qdisc_dropped:FAIL
#143 lwt_reroute:FAIL
The netns_create() definition looks like below:
#define NETNS "ns_lwt"
static inline int netns_create(void)
{
return system("ip netns add " NETNS);
}
One possibility is that both lwt_redirect and lwt_reroute create
netns with the same name "ns_lwt" which may cause conflict. I tried
the following example:
$ sudo ip netns add abc
$ echo $?
0
$ sudo ip netns add abc
Cannot create namespace file "/var/run/netns/abc": File exists
$ echo $?
1
$
The return code for above netns_create() is 256. The internet search
suggests that the return value for 'ip netns add ns_lwt' is 1, which
matches the above 'sudo ip netns add abc' example.
This patch tried to use different netns names for two tests to avoid
'ip netns add <name>' failure.
I ran './test_progs -j' 10 times and all succeeded with
lwt_redirect/lwt_reroute tests.
