[PATCH 06/18] KVM test: Add a new subtest ping

Lucas Meneghel Rodrigues
2010-09-14T22:25:31Z

This test use ping to check the virtual nics, it contains two kinds of test:
1. Packet loss ratio test, ping the guest with different size of packets.
2. Stress test, flood ping guest then use ordinary ping to test the network.

We could not raise an error when flood ping failed, it's too strict.
But we must check the ping result before/after flood-ping.
The interval and packet size could be configurated through tests_base.cfg

Changes from v2:
- Coding style fixes

Changes from v1:
- Improve error message
