Subject: [PATCH v4 net-next 9/9] selftests: net: dsa: add a stress test for unlocked FDB operations
Date: Fri, 22 Oct 2021 21:43:12 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20211022184312.2454746-10-vladimir.oltean@nxp.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20211022184312.2454746-1-vladimir.oltean@nxp.com>

This test is a bit strange in that it is perhaps more manual than
others: it does not transmit a clear OK/FAIL verdict, because user space
does not have synchronous feedback from the kernel. If a hardware access
fails, it is in deferred context.

Nonetheless, on sja1105 I have used it successfully to find and solve a
concurrency issue, so it can be used as a starting point for other
driver maintainers too.

v3->v4:
- use "wait $pid" instead of "killall bash" :-/
- reorder "ip link del br0" and waiting for the background task on cleanup
