[ Upstream commit e2b447c9a1bba718f9c07513a1e8958209e862a1 ]
openvswitch.sh makes use of substitutions of the form ${ns:0:1}, to obtain the first character of $ns. Empirically, this is works with bash but not dash. When run with dash these evaluate to an empty string and printing an error to stdout.
# dash -c 'ns=client; echo "${ns:0:1}"' 2>error # cat error dash: 1: Bad substitution # bash -c 'ns=client; echo "${ns:0:1}"' 2>error c # cat error
This leads to tests that neither pass nor fail. F.e.
TEST: arp_ping [START] adding sandbox 'test_arp_ping' Adding DP/Bridge IF: sbx:test_arp_ping dp:arpping {, , } create namespaces ./openvswitch.sh: 282: eval: Bad substitution TEST: ct_connect_v4 [START] adding sandbox 'test_ct_connect_v4' Adding DP/Bridge IF: sbx:test_ct_connect_v4 dp:ct4 {, , } ./openvswitch.sh: 322: eval: Bad substitution create namespaces
Resolve this by making openvswitch.sh a bash script.
