[PATCH] selftests: net: udpgso_bench_tx: Introduce exponential back-off retries

From: Andrei Gherzan
Date: Fri Jan 27 2023 - 13:18:17 EST


The tx and rx test programs are used in a couple of test scripts including
"udpgro_bench.sh". Taking this as an example, when the rx/tx programs
are invoked subsequently, there is a chance that the rx one is not ready to
accept socket connections. This racing bug could fail the test with at
least one of the following:

./udpgso_bench_tx: connect: Connection refused
./udpgso_bench_tx: sendmsg: Connection refused
./udpgso_bench_tx: write: Connection refused

This change addresses this by adding routines that retry the socket
operations with an exponential back off algorithm from 100ms to 2s.

Fixes: 3a687bef148d ("selftests: udp gso benchmark")
