Subject: [PATCH net-next] selftests: bonding: disable DAD for IPv6 addresses
Date: Sat, 8 Aug 2026 09:23:45 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260808162345.2442594-1-kuba@kernel.org> (raw)
bond_reset() waits up to 2 seconds for IPv6 connectivity.
With default settings DAD itself may take almost 2 seconds,
causing flakes on debug builds. It used to flake once or
twice a week, recently it started failing once a day.
Probably some downstream changes to scheduler, or our machines
go busier.
A lot of selftests already use nodad, let's use nodad in bonding, too.
I don't see an obvious reason why DAD would be important to the test.
