This commit adds a new kernel selftest to verify RTNLGRP_IPV4_MCADDR
and RTNLGRP_IPV6_MCADDR notifications. The test works by adding and
removing a dummy interface and then confirming that the system
correctly receives join and removal notifications for the 224.0.0.1
and ff02::1 multicast addresses.
The test relies on the iproute2 version to be 6.13+.
Tested by the following command:
$ vng -v --user root --cpus 16 -- \
make -C tools/testing/selftests TARGETS=net
TEST_PROGS=rtnetlink_notification.sh \
TEST_GEN_PROGS="" run_tests
Cc: Maciej Żenczykowski <maze@google.com>
Cc: Lorenzo Colitti <lorenzo@google.com>
Signed-off-by: Yuyang Huang <yuyanghuang@google.com>
---
Changelog since v2:
- Move the test cases to a separate file.
Changelog since v1:
- Skip the test if the iproute2 is too old.
