Subject: [RFC net-next v2 4/6] selftests: drv-net: Add loopback driver test
Date: Sun, 8 Mar 2026 13:40:10 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260308124016.3134012-5-bjorn@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260308124016.3134012-1-bjorn@kernel.org>
Add a selftest for the ethtool loopback UAPI exercising module
loopback via the loopback GET/SET netlink commands.
Works on any device that reports module loopback entries. Tests cover
enable near-end and far-end, disable, direction switching (mutual
exclusivity), idempotent enable, and rejection while interface is up.
Devices without module loopback support are skipped.
