linux-stable.git/tools/testing/selftests/net/msg_zerocopy.sh, branch linux-4.16.y Linux kernel stable tree test: add msg_zerocopy test 2017-08-04T04:37:30+00:00 Willem de Bruijn willemb@google.com 2017-08-03T20:29:45+00:00 07b65c5b31ce477c3ced6e3541fd2331338be214 Introduce regression test for msg_zerocopy feature. Send traffic from one process to another with and without zerocopy. Evaluate tcp, udp, raw and packet sockets, including variants - udp: corking and corking with mixed copy/zerocopy calls - raw: with and without hdrincl - packet: at both raw and dgram level Test on both ipv4 and ipv6, optionally with ethtool changes to disable scatter-gather, tx checksum or tso offload. All of these can affect zerocopy behavior. The regression test can be run on a single machine if over a veth pair. Then skb_orphan_frags_rx must be modified to be identical to skb_orphan_frags to allow forwarding zerocopy locally. The msg_zerocopy.sh script will setup the veth pair in network namespaces and run all tests. Signed-off-by: Willem de Bruijn <willemb@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net> 
Introduce regression test for msg_zerocopy feature. Send traffic from
one process to another with and without zerocopy.

Evaluate tcp, udp, raw and packet sockets, including variants
- udp: corking and corking with mixed copy/zerocopy calls
- raw: with and without hdrincl
- packet: at both raw and dgram level

Test on both ipv4 and ipv6, optionally with ethtool changes to
disable scatter-gather, tx checksum or tso offload. All of these
can affect zerocopy behavior.

The regression test can be run on a single machine if over a veth
pair. Then skb_orphan_frags_rx must be modified to be identical to
skb_orphan_frags to allow forwarding zerocopy locally.

The msg_zerocopy.sh script will setup the veth pair in network
namespaces and run all tests.
