Subject: [PATCH net 3/3] selftests: ovpn: reduce ping count in test.sh
Date: Tue, 5 May 2026 01:03:05 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260504230305.2681646-4-antonio@openvpn.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260504230305.2681646-1-antonio@openvpn.net>
From: Ralf Lici <ralf@mandelbit.com>
The second stage of test.sh ("run baseline data traffic") performs a
basic connectivity check with ping -qfc 500 -w 3. On slower CI
instances this is too strict for TCP: the RTT is high enough that 500
echo requests do not reliably complete within 3 seconds, so the stage
flakes and the test fails even though the ovpn setup is healthy.
Reduce the packet count to 100 for both the plain and 3000-byte pings in
that stage. This still verifies peer setup, key exchange, routing, and
data-path traffic, without making the basic connectivity check depend on
timing out under load.
Fixes: 959bc330a439 ("testing/selftests: add test tool and scripts for ovpn module")
