Add a test suite to test XDP bonding implementation over a pair of veth devices.Cc: Magnus Jussi, AF_XDP selftests have very similar functionality just like you are trying to introduce over here, e.g. we setup veth pair and generate traffic. After a quick look seems that we could have a generic layer that would be used by both AF_XDP and bonding selftests. WDYT?Sounds like a good idea to me to have more shared code in the selftests and I don't see a reason not to use the AF_XDP datapath in the bonding selftests. I'll look into it this week and get back to you.
Note, that I am currently rewriting a large part of the AF_XDP selftests making it more amenable to adding various tests. A test is in my patch set is described as a set of packets to send, a set of packets that should be received in a certain order with specified contents, and configuration/setup information for the sender and receiver. The current code is riddled with test specific if-statements that make it hard to extend and use generically. So please hold off for a week or so and review my patch set when I send it to the list. Better use of your time. Hopefully we can make it fit your bill too with not too much work.
