[PATCH AUTOSEL 5.5 209/542] selftests/net: make so_txtime more robust to timer variance

From: Sasha Levin
Date: Fri Feb 14 2020 - 10:53:47 EST


From: Willem de Bruijn <willemb@xxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit ea6a547669b37453f2b1a5d85188d75b3613dfaa ]

The SO_TXTIME test depends on accurate timers. In some virtualized
environments the test has been reported to be flaky. This is easily
reproduced by disabling kvm acceleration in Qemu.

Allow greater variance in a run and retry to further reduce flakiness.

Observed errors are one of two kinds: either the packet arrives too
early or late at recv(), or it was dropped in the qdisc itself and the
recv() call times out.

In the latter case, the qdisc queues a notification to the error
queue of the send socket. Also explicitly report this cause.
