This patch set aims to add the necessary support so that bash written
selftests are also able to easily run with a remote traffic generator
system, either be it in another netns or one accessible through ssh.
This patch set is a result of the discussion from v1:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260303084330.340b6459@kernel.org/
Even though the python infrastructure is already established, some
things are easier in bash and it would be a shame to leave behind the
bash tests that we already have.
This support is based on the requirements described in the
tools/testing/selftests/drivers/net/README.rst file.
Mainly, the drivers/net selftests should be able to run on a interface
specified through the NETIF env variable. On top of that, variables such
as REMOTE_TYPE and REMOTE_ARGS define how the remote traffic generator
can be accessed. Patch 3/10 parses these env variables and constructs the
NETIFS array that bash tests are accustomed to. This is with the
intention of enabling already written tests to incur minimal changes.
The second patch also defines the TARGETS array which will hold the
necessary information about the target on which a specific interface
is located.
For example, a net.config which looks like below:
NETIF=eth0
LOCAL_V4=192.168.1.1
REMOTE_V4=192.168.1.2
REMOTE_TYPE=ssh
REMOTE_ARGS=root@192.168.1.2
will generate the NETIFS and TARGETS arrays with the following data.
NETIFS[p1]="eth0"
NETIFS[p2]="eth2"
TARGETS[eth0]="local:"
TARGETS[eth2]="ssh:root@192.168.1.2"
The above will be true if on the remote target, the interface which has
the 192.168.1.2 address is named eth2.
The values held in the TARGETS array will be used by the new 'run_on'
helper added in patch 2/10 to know how to run a specific command, on the
local system, on another netns or by using ssh. Patch 4/10 updates some
helpers to use run_on so that, for example, lib.sh is able to ensure
stable MAC addresses even with the remote interface located in another
netns.
The next 5 patches, 5/10-9/10 update the ethtool_rmon.sh script so that it
can work with the kselftest infrastructure and the new
NETIF/REMOTE_TYPE etc way of working. Beside updating each ip link or
ethtool command to use the run_on helper, the patches also remove any
testing done on the remote interface.
The last patch adds a new test which checks the standard counters -
eth-ctrl, eth-mac and pause - and uses the new infrastructure put in
place by the first patches.
With this patch set, both tests can be run using a net.config file and
run_kselftest.sh as shown below.

Changes in v4:
- 1/10: wrap the lines to max 80 chars
- 1/10: replace the if-else with a simple if and return in order to be
easier to maintain the 80 chars limit.
- 2/10: reworked the helpers so that no global variable is used and
information is passed only through parameters
- 3/10: reword the entry in README.rst to mention that the different
interface names is only a bash restriction and the python
infrastructure does not have the same problem.
- 3/10: only declare the TARGETS array when necessary
- 3/10: add a new flags - DRIVER_TEST_CONFORMANT - that needs to be set
by the test
- 3/10: rework the check_env() function so that its logic is simpler
- 3/10: source drivers/net/net.config only if DRIVER_TEST_CONFORMANT ==
yes
- 3/10: check that NETIF and the remote netif have different names and
abort test is not
- 4/10: split some lines to 80 chars
- 5/10: split one line to 80 chars
- 8/10: patch is added in this version so that ethtool_rmon.sh is
converted to KTAP output
- 9/10: set DRIVER_TEST_CONFORMANT to yes
- 9/10: update the commit message to reflect the current output
- 9/10: split some more lines to 80 chars
- 10/10: move to a the KTAP format output by using ktap_helpers.sh
- 10/10: update commit message to reflect the current output
- 10/10: use DRIVER_TEST_CONFORMANT
Changes in v3:
- Change the TARGET variable into CUR_TARGET
- Always fallback on running a command locally when either TARGETS is
not declared or there is no entry for a specific interface
- Swap patches 2 & 3 between them so that the run_cmd used in now patch
#2 is defined in patch #2
- Add some more double quoting
Changes in v2:
- 1/9: Convert jq to the --arg usage form
- Patches 2/9-8/9 are new in this version
- 9/9: Use the new run_on helper
- 9/9: No longer checking that each counter has a 1% tolerance against the
target. The only upper limit is UINT32_MAX.
- 9/9: Check that both the error counters and the collision related ones are
zero since this is the most probable scenario (we don't expect errors
with the traffic that we are sending).
- 9/9: Removed any checks performed on the remot interface counters since
that is being used only as a traffic generator.

Even though pause frame statistics are not exported through the same
ethtool command, there is no point in adding another helper just for
them. Extent the ethtool_std_stats_get() function so that we are able to
interrogate using the same helper all the standard statistics.
And since we are touching the function, convert the initial ethtool call
as well to the jq --arg form in order to be easier to read.

Add a couple of helpers which can be used by tests which need to run a
specific bash command on a different target than the local system, be it
either another netns or a remote system accessible through ssh.
The __run_on() function is passed through $1 the target on which the
command should be executed while run_on() is passed the name of the
interface that is then used to retrieve the target from the TARGETS
array.

Extend lib.sh so that it's able to parse driver/net/net.config and
environment variables such as NETIF, REMOTE_TYPE, LOCAL_V4 etc described
in drivers/net/README.rst.
In order to make the transition towards running with a single local
interface smoother for the bash networking driver tests, beside sourcing
the net.config file also translate the new env variables into the old
style based on the NETIFS array. Since the NETIFS array only holds the
network interface names, also add a new array - TARGETS - which keeps
track of the target on which a specific interfaces resides - local,
netns or accesible through an ssh command.
For example, a net.config which looks like below:
NETIF=eth0
LOCAL_V4=192.168.1.1
REMOTE_V4=192.168.1.2
REMOTE_TYPE=ssh
REMOTE_ARGS=root@192.168.1.2
will generate the NETIFS and TARGETS arrays with the following data.
NETIFS[p1]="eth0"
NETIFS[p2]="eth2"
TARGETS[eth0]="local:"
TARGETS[eth2]="ssh:root@192.168.1.2"
The above will be true if on the remote target, the interface which has
the 192.168.1.2 address is named eth2.
Since the TARGETS array is indexed by the network interface name,
document a new restriction README.rst which states that the remote
interface cannot have the same name as the local one.
Also keep the old way of populating the NETIFS variable based on the
command line arguments. This will be invoked in case NETIF is not
defined.

Update some helpers so that they are capable to run commands on
different targets than the local one. This patch makes the necesasy
modification for those helpers / sections of code which are needed for
the ethtool_rmon.sh test that will be converted in the next patches.
For example, mac_addr_prepare() and mac_addr_restore() used when
STABLE_MAC_ADDRS=yes need to ensure stable MAC addresses on interfaces
located even in other namespaces. In order to do that, append the 'ip
link' commands with a 'run_on $dev' tag.
The same run_on is necessary also when verifying if all the interfaces
listed in NETIFS are indeed available.

If run on the ethtool_rmon.sh script, shellcheck generates a bunch of
false positive errors. Suppress those checks that generate them.
Also cleanup the remaining warnings by using double quoting around the
used variables.

The selftests in drivers/net are slowly transitioning to being able to
be used on systems with a single network interface. The first step for the
ethtool_rmon.sh test is to only validate that the rmon counters are
properly exported on the first interface supplied as an argument.
Remove the rmon_histogram calls which intend to test also the rmon
counters on the 2nd interface. This also removes the need for the remote
system, which should be used only to inject traffic, to also support
rmon counters.

The ethtool_rmon.sh script checks that the number of packets sent /
received during a test matches the expected value with a 1% tolerance.
Since in the next patches this test will gain the capability to also be
run on systems with a single interface where the traffic generator is
accesible through ssh, use the UINT32_MAX as the upper limit. This is
necessary since the same interface will be used also for control traffic
(the ssh commands) as well as the mausezahn generated one.

Update the ethtool_rmon.sh test so that it uses the KTAP format for its
output. This is achieved by using the helpers found in ktap_helpers.sh.

This patch finalizes the transition to work with a single local
interface for the ethtool_rmon.sh test. Each 'ip link' and 'ethtool'
command used by the test is annotated with the necessary run_on in
order to be executed on the necessary target system, be it local, in
another network namespace or through ssh.
Since we need NETIF up and running also for control traffic, we now
expect that the interfaces are up and running and do not touch bring
them up or down at the end of the test. This is also documented in the
drivers/net/README.rst.
The ethtool_rmon.sh script can still be used in the older fashion by
passing two interfaces as command line arguments, the only restriction
is that those interfaces need to be already up.
$ DRIVER_TEST_CONFORMANT=no ./ethtool_rmon.sh eth0 eth1
As part of the kselftest infrastructure, this test can be run in the
following manner:
$ make -C tools/testing/selftests/ TARGETS="drivers/net drivers/net/hw" \
install INSTALL_PATH=/tmp/ksft-net-drv
$ cd /tmp/ksft-net-drv/
$ cat > ./drivers/net/net.config <<EOF

Add a new selftest - ethtool_std_stats.sh - which validates the
eth-ctrl, eth-mac and pause standard statistics exported by an
interface. Collision related eth-mac counters as well as the error ones
will be checked against zero since that is the most likely correct
scenario.
The central part of this patch is the traffic_test() function which
gathers the 'before' counter values, sends a batch of traffic and then
interrogates again the same counters in order to determine if the delta
is on target. The function receives an array through which the caller
can request what counters to be interrogated and, for each of them, what
is their target delta value.
The output from this selftest looks as follows on a LX2160ARDB board:
$ ./run_kselftest.sh -t drivers/net/hw:ethtool_std_stats.sh

Please note that not all MACs are counting the software injected pause
frames as real Tx pause. For example, on a LS1028ARDB the selftest
output will reflect the fact that neither the ENETC MAC, nor the Felix
switch MAC are able to detect Tx pause frames injected by software.
$ ./run_kselftest.sh -t drivers/net/hw:ethtool_std_stats.sh
(...)
# # software sent pause frames not detected
# ok 25 ethtool_std_stats.pause-tx_pause_frames # XFAIL
# ok 26 ethtool_std_stats.pause-rx_pause_frames

Changes in v4:
- move to a the KTAP format output by using ktap_helpers.sh
- update commit message to reflect the current output
- use DRIVER_TEST_CONFORMANT
Changes in v3:
- none
Changes in v2:
- Use the new run_on helper
- No longer checking that each counter has a 1% tolerance against the
target. The only upper limit is UINT32_MAX.
- Check that both the error counters and the collision related ones are
zero since this is the most probable scenario (we don't expect errors
with the traffic that we are sending).
- Removed any checks performed on the remot interface counters since
that is being used only as a traffic generator.
