After the previous patch that speeded up the test (by avoiding neigh
discovery in IPv6), the BPF CI occasionally hits this error:
rcv tstamp unexpected pkt rcv tstamp: actual 0 == expected 0
The test complains about the cmsg returned from the recvmsg() does not
have the rcv timestamp. Setting skb->tstamp or not is
controlled by a kernel static key "netstamp_needed_key". The static
key is enabled whenever this is at least one sk with the SOCK_TIMESTAMP
set.
The test_redirect_dtime does use setsockopt() to turn on
the SOCK_TIMESTAMP for the reading sk. In the kernel
net_enable_timestamp() has a delay to enable the "netstamp_needed_key"
when CONFIG_JUMP_LABEL is set. This potential delay is the likely reason
for packet missing rcv timestamp occasionally.
This patch is to create udp sockets with SOCK_TIMESTAMP set.
It sends and receives some packets until the received packet
has a rcv timestamp. It currently retries at most 5 times with 1s
in between. This should be enough to wait for the "netstamp_needed_key".
It then holds on to the socket and only closes it at the end of the test.
This guarantees that the test has the "netstamp_needed_key" key turned
on from the beginning.
To simplify the udp sockets setup, they are sending/receiving packets
in the same netns (ns_dst is used) and communicate over the "lo" dev.
Hence, the patch enables the "lo" dev in the ns_dst.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
