Subject: [PATCH net v2 2/4] selftests: net: Lower threshold on debug kernels for big_tcp_tunnels.sh
Date: Sat, 22 Aug 2026 15:03:06 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260822120308.1165200-3-alice.kernel@fastmail.im> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260822120308.1165200-1-alice.kernel@fastmail.im>
From: Alice Mikityanska <alice@isovalent.com>
Debug kernels on upstream CI runners run slower and generate fewer BIG
TCP packets, making the test flaky on upstream CI runners. Lower the
default threshold for those kernels.
Fixes: 5cb53743e1ff ("selftests: net: Add a test for BIG TCP in UDP tunnels")
