Re: [PATCH v2 3/4] selftests: net: udpgso_bench: Fix racing bug between the rx/tx programs

On Tue, Jan 31, 2023 at 8:06 AM Andrei Gherzan andrei.gherzan@canonical.com wrote:

"udpgro_bench.sh" invokes udpgso_bench_rx/udpgso_bench_tx programs subsequently and while doing so, 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 making udpgro_bench.sh wait for the rx program to be ready before firing off the tx one - with an exponential back off algorithm from 1s to 10s.
