Subject: [PATCH net-next v15 09/12] selftests/vsock: add tests for proc sys vsock ns_mode
Date: Fri, 16 Jan 2026 13:28:49 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260116-vsock-vmtest-v15-9-bbfd1a668548@meta.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260116-vsock-vmtest-v15-0-bbfd1a668548@meta.com>
From: Bobby Eshleman <bobbyeshleman@meta.com>
Add tests for the /proc/sys/net/vsock/{ns_mode,child_ns_mode}
interfaces. Namely, that they accept/report "global" and "local" strings
and enforce their access policies.
Start a convention of commenting the test name over the test
description. Add test name comments over test descriptions that existed
before this convention.
Add a check_netns() function that checks if the test requires namespaces
and if the current kernel supports namespaces. Skip tests that require
namespaces if the system does not have namespace support.
This patch is the first to add tests that do *not* re-use the same
shared VM. For that reason, it adds a run_ns_tests() function to run
these tests and filter out the shared VM tests.

Changes in v13:
- remove write-once test ns_host_vsock_ns_mode_write_once_ok to reflect
removing the write-once policy
- add child_ns_mode test test_ns_host_vsock_child_ns_mode_ok
- modify test_ns_host_vsock_ns_mode_ok() to check that the correct mode
was inherited from child_ns_mode
Changes in v12:
- remove ns_vm_local_mode_rejected test, due to dropping that constraint
Changes in v11:
- Document ns_ prefix above TEST_NAMES (Stefano)
Changes in v10:
- Remove extraneous add_namespaces/del_namespaces calls.
- Rename run_tests() to run_ns_tests() since it is designed to only
run ns tests.
Changes in v9:
- add test ns_vm_local_mode_rejected to check that guests cannot use
local mode
