* test: Add wait_for() shell helperDavid Gibson2022-09-292-3/+9
| | | | | | | | | | Add a shell helper function to wait for some command to succeed - typically a test for something to be done by a background process. Use it in the context code which waits for the guest to respond to ssh-over-vsock connections.

* test/demo: Avoid using port 5201 on the hostStefano Brivio2022-09-243-115/+115
| | | | | | | | | That's the default port for iperf3, which also means that it's quite likely in use on my test machine. Use different port numbers: recycle the scheme we use in tests for passt and pasta's demo, use 5221-5224 (a bit shorter) for the slirp4netns container in Podman's demo.

* test/passt.mbuto: Don't fail on missing guest public keyStefano Brivio2022-09-231-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | We won't necessarily run mbuto as part of regular tests: it can also be used for demos or out-of-tree tests. To keep the profile simple, leave the whole sshd setup there, which is otherwise harmless, but don't fail if guest-key.pub is missing in the current directory.

* test/distro: Update workarounds for Ubuntu 22.04 on s390x2022_09_23.d6f865aStefano Brivio2022-09-231-1/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | If we use dhclient without creating a complete network configuration, systemd-resolved will stop working after a while, and this sometimes happens while we're still installing packages. Disable it, together with systemd-networkd, while taking care of removing the dhclient hook that prevents overriding /etc/resolv.conf. While at it, it looks like removing snapd and needrestart actually takes more time than keeping them: drop that line. Signed-off-by: Stefano Brivio <sbrivio@redhat.com>
* test/lib: Wait for DHCPv4 before starting DHCPv6 client in two_guests testStefano Brivio2022-09-231-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | I'm not sure why, but dhclient hangs otherwise. This reflects what we do in the passt_in_ns setup steps. Eventually, this whole block could go away if we let pasta configure this network namespace with --config-net. Signed-off-by: Stefano Brivio <sbrivio@redhat.com>

| | | | | | | | Starting tcp_rr, tcp_crr, udp_rr servers in the guest takes a bit longer than starting the corresponding clients on the host, and we end up starting clients before servers unless we add a delay there. Signed-off-by: Stefano Brivio <sbrivio@redhat.com>

* test/lib: Run also iperf3 clients in background, revert to time-based waitStefano Brivio2022-09-221-3/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Unfortunately, this partially counters recent efforts by David to speed up these tests, but it looks like iperf3 clients don't reliably terminate, in some rare cases I couldn't isolate yet. For the moment being, reintroduce the time-based wait approach, now using the configurable test duration, and terminate the servers at the end of it, in case they're stuck. There's no point in keeping the 'sleep 2' later, so drop that, and while at it, make sure that the stuck servers have time to flush the JSON output before we use it.

* test/perf: Disable periodic throughput reports to avoid vhost hangStefano Brivio2022-09-225-5/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It appears that if we run throughput tests with one-second periodic reports, the sending side of the vhost channel used for SSH-based command dispatch occasionally stops working altogether. I haven't investigated this further, all I see is that output is truncated at some point, and doesn't resume. If we use gzip compression (ssh -C) this happens less frequently, but it still happens, seemingly indicating the issue is probably related to vhost itself. Disable periodic reports in iperf3 clients. The -i options were actually redundant, so remove them from both test files as well as from test_iperf3(). Signed-off-by: Stefano Brivio <sbrivio@redhat.com>
* test/lib: Wait on iperf3 clients to be done, then send SIGINT to serversStefano Brivio2022-09-221-8/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | An iperf3 client might fail to send the control message indicating the end of the test, if the kernel buffer doesn't accept it, and exit without having sent it, as the control socket is non-blocking. Should this happen, the server will just wait forever for this message, instead of terminating. Restore some of the behaviour that went away with the "test: Rewrite test_iperf3" patch: instead of waiting on servers to terminate, wait on the clients. When they are done, wait 2 seconds, and then send SIGINT to the servers, which make them still write out the JSON report before terminating. Signed-off-by: Stefano Brivio <sbrivio@redhat.com>
* test/lib: Restore IFS while executing directives in def blocksStefano Brivio2022-09-221-1/+1
| | | | | | | If we don't, guest command dispatch will fail altogether, given that we use cat(1) on the enter file, which contains spaces. Signed-off-by: Stefano Brivio <sbrivio@redhat.com>
* test/perf: Switch performance test duration to 10 seconds instead of 30Stefano Brivio2022-09-224-4/+4

* test/passt_in_ns: Consistent sleep commands before starting socat clientStefano Brivio2022-09-222-6/+41
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There are some 'sleep 1' commands between starting the socat server and its corresponding client to avoid races due to the server not being ready as we start sending data. However, those don't cover all the cases where we might need them, and in some cases the sleep command actually ended up being before the server even starts. This fixes occasional failures in TCP and UDP simple transfer tests, that became apparent with the new command dispatch mechanism. Signed-off-by: Stefano Brivio <sbrivio@redhat.com>
* test/perf: Check for /sbin/sysctl with which(1), not simply sysctlStefano Brivio2022-09-223-4/+4
| | | | | | | | | | Otherwise, we're depending on having /sbin in $PATH. For some reason I didn't completely grasp, with the new command dispatch mechanism that's not the case anymore, even if I have /sbin in $PATH in the parent shell.

| | | | | | | | | | We use the [ "$x" -eq "$x" ] syntax to check if $x is a number. The behaviour is clearly implied by POSIX, but some shells might actually report the (intended) error, and dash floods script.log with "Illegal number" error messages. Hide them.

* test: Simpler termination handling for UDP testsDavid Gibson2022-09-133-65/+62
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Because UDP is connectionless we don't have an in-built end-of-stream signal for our connectivity tests. We work around this by explicitly adding an end marker to our sample data and killing the listening end once it is seen. However, socat has some built-in options - null-eof and shut-null - which can be used to signal the end of stream with a zero-length UDP packet. Use these to simplify how the UDP tests are implemented. Signed-off-by: David Gibson <david@gibson.dropbear.id.au>

| | | | | | | | | The tests generate a performance report in $BASEPATH/perf.js and hooks/pre-push copies it to the website.

Put them in the temporary state directory to avoid clutter.

| | | | | | | | | | | | Instead of using the 'temp' and 'tempdir' DSL directives to create temporary files, use fixed paths relative to __STATEDIR__. This has two advantages: 1) The files are automatically cleaned up if the tests fail (and even if that doesn't work they're easier to clean up manuall) 2) When debugging tests it's easier to figure out which of the temporary files are relevant to whatever's going wrong Signed-off-by: David Gibson <david@gibson.dropbear.id.au>

* test: Create common state directories for temporary filesDavid Gibson2022-09-134-1/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The test scripts create a bunch of temporary files to keep track of internal state. Some are made in /tmp with individual mktemp calls, some go in the passt source directory, and some go in $LOGDIR. This can sometimes make it messy to clean up after failed test runs. Start cleaning this up by creating a single "state" directory ($STATEBASE) in /tmp for all the state or temporary files used by a single test run. Clean it up automatically in cleanup() - except when DEBUG==1, because those files can be useful for debugging test script failures. We create subdirectories under $STATEBASE for each setup function, exposed as $STATESETUP. We also create subdirectories for each test script and expose those to the scripts as __STATEDIR__.

* test: Actually run cleanup functionDavid Gibson2022-09-131-1/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | We install a cleanup() function with 'trap' in order to clean up temporary files we generate during the tests. However, we deinstall it after run_term, which means it won't run in most of the cases where it would be useful. Even if "run from_term" exits with an error, that error will be hidden from the run_term wrapper because it's within a tmux session, so we will return from run_term normally, uninstall the trap and never clean up. In fact there's no reason to uninstall the trap at all, it works just as well on the success exit path as an error exit path. Signed-off-by: David Gibson <david@gibson.dropbear.id.au>

Do this without requiring an existing network in the guest by using socat to run ssh via a vsock connection. We do need some additional "sleep"s in the tests, because the new faster dispatch means that sometimes we attempt to connect before socat has managed to listen.

* test: Add nsholder utilityDavid Gibson2022-09-133-1/+147
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In our test scripts we need to do some ugly parsing of /proc and/or pstree output in order to get the PIDs of processes running in namespaces so that we can connect to those namespaces with nsenter or pasta. This is actually a pretty tricky problem with standard tools. To determine the PID from the outside of the namespace we need to know how the process of interest is related to the unshare or pasta process (child? one of several children? grandchild?) as well as then parsing /proc or ps output. This is slightly awkward now, and will get worse with future changes I'd like to make to have processes are dispatched. The obvious solution would be to have the process of interest (which we control) report its own PID, but that doesn't work easily, because it is in a PID namepace and sees only its local PID not the global PID we need to address it from outside. To handle this, add a small custom tool, "nsholder". This takes a path and a mode parameter. In "hold" mode it will create a unix domain socket bound to the path and listening. In "pid" mode it will get the "hold"ing process's pid via the unix socket using SO_PEERCRED, which translates between PID namespaces. In "stop" mode it will send a message to the socket causing the "hold"ing process to clean up and exit. Signed-off-by: David Gibson <david@gibson.dropbear.id.au>

* test: Integration of old-style pane execution and new context executionDavid Gibson2022-09-133-81/+121
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We're creating a system for tests to more reliably execute commands in various contexts (e.g. host, guest, namespace). That transition is going to happen over a number of steps though, so in the meantime we need to deal with both the old-style issuing of commands via typing into and screen scraping tmux panels, and the new-style system for executing commands in context. Introduce some transitional helpers which will issue a command via context if the requested context is initialized, but will otherwise fall back to the old style tmux panel based method. Re-implement the various test DSL commands in terms of these new helpers. Signed-off-by: David Gibson <david@gibson.dropbear.id.au>
* test: Allow a tmux pane to watch commands executed in contextsDavid Gibson2022-09-131-0/+18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We're moving to a new way of the tests dispatching commands to running in contexts (host, guest, namespace, etc.). As we make this transition, though, we still want the user to be able to watch the commands running in a context, as they previously could from the commands issued in the pane. Add a helper to set up a pane to watch a context's log to allow this. In some cases we currently issue commands from several different logical contexts in the same pane, so allow a pane to watch several contexts at once. Also use tail's --retry option to allow starting the watch before we've initialized the context which will be useful in some cases. Signed-off-by: David Gibson <david@gibson.dropbear.id.au>
* test: Context execution helpersDavid Gibson2022-09-131-0/+80
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For the tests, we need to run commands in various contexts: in the host, in a guest or in a namespace. Currently we do this by running each context in a tmux pane, and using tmux commands to type the commands into the relevant pane, then screen-scrape the output for the results if we need them. This is very fragile, because we have to make various assumptions to parse the output. Those can break if a shell doesn't have the prompt we expect, if the tmux pane is too small or in various other conditions. This starts some library functions for a new "context" system, that provides a common way to invoke commands in a given context, in a way that properly preserves stdout, stderr and the process return code.

* test: Correctly match "background" with "wait" commandsDavid Gibson2022-09-134-8/+6

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | These two commands in the DSL to run an iperf client and server are always used together, and some of the parameters must match between them. The iperf3s must also be run more or less immediately after iperf3c, since iperf3c will run a client in the background after a sleep and requires a server to be running before it will work. A bunch of things can be made cleaner if we make a single DSL command that runs both sides of the test. For now make the combined command work exactly like the two commands together did, warts and all. This does lose the ability for the DSL scripts to give additional options to the iperf3 server, but we weren't using that anyway. Signed-off-by: David Gibson <david@gibson.dropbear.id.au>
