[RFC] SCTP tests in LTP vs. on github.com/sctp

[Petr Vorel <pvorel@suse.cz>]

Hi all,

SCTP tests lksctp-tools [1] are also in LTP [2].
IMHO it's not worth to have it on both places.

lksctp-tools looks like to be the official ones [3] so maybe drop it from LTP?

Version in LTP was updated to 1.0.15 some time ago (upstream has 1.0.19, containing various fixes [4],
maybe worth to be backported to lksctp-tools? Frankly speaking even being older
version the LTP code looks to me better. One test was even rewritten to LTP new
C API [5] in order to apply more improvements [6].

BTW I'd really recommend lksctp-tools project to take new LTP C API [7] and
rewrite tests into it. But are these tests still relevant? (is it worth of
work?)

Kind regards,
Petr
