https://github.com/linux-test-project/ltp/wiki/Shell-Test-API[Shell Test API].
LTP library includes helper functions for configuring sockets and setting up
network devices.
1 Configuring sockets
---------------------
1.1 Safe syscall variants
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+#include "tst_safe_net.h"+
Most common standard syscalls and libc functions for configuring sockets have a
"safe" variant in LTP library which will call +tst_brk()+ if the underlying
system function fails. See
https://github.com/linux-test-project/ltp/wiki/C-Test-API[C Test API]. The
safe function names are in uppercase with the +SAFE_+ prefix (e.g. the safe
variant of +socket()+ is called +SAFE_SOCKET()+). For most safe functions, the
parameters and return type are identical to the standard system function:
- +SAFE_SOCKET()+
- +SAFE_SOCKETPAIR()+
- +SAFE_GETSOCKOPT()+
- +SAFE_SETSOCKOPT()+
- +SAFE_BIND()+
- +SAFE_LISTEN()+
- +SAFE_ACCEPT()+
- +SAFE_CONNECT()+
- +SAFE_GETSOCKNAME()+
- +SAFE_GETHOSTNAME()+
- +SAFE_GETADDRINFO()+
A few safe functions have extra parameters for quick return value validation.
The ellipsis (+...+) represents the standard parameters of the underlying system
function:
* +SAFE_SEND(char strict, ...)+
* +SAFE_SENDTO(char strict, ...)+
** If +strict+ is non-zero, the return value must be equal to the data length
argument. Otherwise the test will fail and exit.
* +SAFE_SENDMSG(size_t msg_len, ...)+
* +SAFE_RECV(size_t msg_len, ...)+
* +SAFE_RECVMSG(size_t msg_len, ...)+
** If +msg_len+ is non-zero, the return value must be equal to the +msg_len+
argument. Otherwise the test will fail and exit.
There are also some custom functions for simpler configuration and queries:
- +int SAFE_SETSOCKOPT_INT(int sockfd, int level, int optname, int value)+ –
Simple setsockopt() variant for passing integers by value.
- +int TST_GETSOCKPORT(int sockfd)+ – Get port number (in host byte order) of a
bound socket.
- +unsigned short TST_GET_UNUSED_PORT(int family, int type)+ – Get a random
port number (in network byte order) which is currently closed for the given
socket family and type. Note that another application may open the port while
the test is still running. The test user is responsible for setting up test
environment without such interference.
1.2 Address conversion functions
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+#include "tst_net.h"+
LTP library also provides helper functions for quick initialization of socket
address structures:
- +void tst_get_in_addr(const char *ip_str, struct in_addr *ip)+ – Convert
human-readable IPv4 address string +ip_str+ to binary representation in
network byte order. The converted value will be stored in the second argument.
- +void tst_get_in6_addr(const char *ip_str, struct in6_addr *ip6)+ – Convert
human-readable IPv6 address string +ip_str+ to binary representation in
network byte order. The converted value will be stored in the second argument.
- +socklen_t tst_get_connect_address(int sock, struct sockaddr_storage *addr)+ –
Find the address which can be used to send data to bound socket +sock+ from
another socket. The address will be stored in the second argument. This
function automatically converts wildcard bind address to localhost. Returns
size of the address in bytes.
- +void tst_init_sockaddr_inet(struct sockaddr_in *sa, const char *ip_str,
uint16_t port)+ – Initialize socket address structure +sa+ using
human-readable IPv4 address +ip_str+ and port number +port+ in host byte
order.
- +void tst_init_sockaddr_inet_bin(struct sockaddr_in *sa, uint32_t ip_val,
uint16_t port)+ – Initialize socket address structure +sa+ using binary IPv4
address +ip_val+ and port number +port+, both in host byte order.
- +void tst_init_sockaddr_inet6(struct sockaddr_in6 *sa, const char *ip_str,
uint16_t port)+ – Initialize socket address structure +sa+ using
human-readable IPv6 address +ip_str+ and port number +port+ in host byte
order.
- +void tst_init_sockaddr_inet6_bin(struct sockaddr_in6 *sa, const struct
in6_addr *ip_val, uint16_t port)+ – Initialize socket address structure +sa+
using binary IPv6 address +ip_val+ and port number +port+, both in host byte
order.

[source,c]
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
#include <sys/socket.h>
#include <netinet/in.h>
#include "tst_test.h"
#include "tst_safe_net.h"
#include "tst_net.h"
static int sockfd = -1;
static void setup(void)
{
struct sockaddr_in addr;
tst_init_sockaddr_inet_bin(&addr, INADDR_ANY, 0);
sockfd = SAFE_SOCKET(AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, 0);

SAFE_BIND(sockfd, (struct sockaddr *)&addr, sizeof(addr));
SAFE_LISTEN(sockfd, 8);
}

2 Configuring network devices
-----------------------------
+#include "tst_netdevice.h"+
When opening a localhost socket isn't enough and the test needs special device
or routing configuration, the netdevice library can create the required network
setup without calling external programs. Internally, the netdevice functions
use a rtnetlink socket to communicate with the kernel.
All of these functions will call +tst_brk()+ on failure, unless stated
otherwise. Error values described below are returned only during test cleanup
stage.
2.1 Network device management
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- +int NETDEV_INDEX_BY_NAME(const char *ifname)+ – Returns the device index for
the given device name, or -1 on error.
- +int NETDEV_SET_STATE(const char *ifname, int up)+ – Enable or disable a
network device +ifname+. Returns 0 on success, -1 on error.
- +int CREATE_VETH_PAIR(const char *ifname1, const char *ifname2)+ – Creates a
connected pair of virtual network devices with given device names. Returns 1
on success, 0 on error. Add +"CONFIG_VETH"+ to +test.needs_kconfigs+ if your
test calls this function.
- +int NETDEV_ADD_DEVICE(const char *ifname, const char *devtype)+ - Creates
a new network device named +ifname+ of specified device type. Returns 1 on
success, 0 on error.
- +int NETDEV_REMOVE_DEVICE(const char *ifname)+ – Removes network device
+ifname+. Returns 1 on success, 0 on error.
2.2 Network address management
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- +int NETDEV_ADD_ADDRESS(const char \*ifname, unsigned int family, const void
*address, unsigned int prefix, size_t addrlen, unsigned int flags)+ – Adds
new address to network device +ifname+. This is a low-level function which
allows setting any type of address. You must specify the protocol +family+,
address length in bytes (+addrlen+) and network prefix length (+prefix+). The
+address+ itself must be in binary representation in network byte order. You
can also pass rtnetlink flags from the +IFA_F_*+ group. Returns 1 on success,
0 on error.
- +int NETDEV_ADD_ADDRESS_INET(const char *ifname, in_addr_t address, unsigned
int prefix, unsigned int flags)+ – Adds new IPv4 address to network device
+ifname+. Parameters have the same meaning as in +NETDEV_ADD_ADDRESS()+.
Returns 1 on success, 0 on error.
- +int NETDEV_REMOVE_ADDRESS(const char *ifname, unsigned int family, const
void *address, size_t addrlen)+ – Removes the specified address from network
device +ifname+. Parameters have the same meaning as in
+NETDEV_ADD_ADDRESS()+. Returns 1 on success, 0 on error.
- +int NETDEV_REMOVE_ADDRESS_INET(const char *ifname, in_addr_t address)+ –
Removes specified IPv4 +address+ (in network byte order) from network device
+ifname+. Returns 1 on success, 0 on error.
2.3 Network namespace device assignment
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
WARNING: Moving a network device to another namespace will erase previous
configuration. Move the device to the correct namespace first, then
configure it.
- +int NETDEV_CHANGE_NS_FD(const char *ifname, int nsfd)+ – Moves network
device +ifname+ to network namespace designated by open file descriptor
+nsfd+. Returns 1 on success, 0 on error.
- +int NETDEV_CHANGE_NS_PID(const char *ifname, pid_t nspid)+ – Moves network
device +ifname+ to the network namespace currently used by process +nspid+.
Returns 1 on success, 0 on error.
2.4 Routing table management
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- +int NETDEV_ADD_ROUTE(const char *ifname, unsigned int family, const void
*srcaddr, unsigned int srcprefix, size_t srclen, const void *dstaddr,
unsigned int dstprefix, size_t dstlen, const void *gateway, size_t
gatewaylen)+ – Adds new route to the main routing table. This is a low-level
function which allows creating routes for any protocol. You must specify the
protocol +family+ and either network device name +ifname+ or +gateway+
address. Both packet source address +srcaddr+ and destination address
+dstaddr+ are optional. You must also specify the corresponding length
and prefix argument for any address which is not +NULL+. All addresses must
be in binary representation in network byte order. Returns 1 on success,
0 on error.
- +int NETDEV_ADD_ROUTE_INET(const char *ifname, in_addr_t srcaddr, unsigned
int srcprefix, in_addr_t dstaddr, unsigned int dstprefix, in_addr_t
gateway)+ – Adds new IPv4 route to the main routing table. Parameters have
the same meaning as in +NETDEV_ADD_ROUTE()+. If you do not want to set
explicit +gateway+ address, set it to 0. If the routing rule should ignore
the source or destination address, set the corresponding prefix argument
to 0. Returns 1 on success, 0 on error.
- +int NETDEV_REMOVE_ROUTE(const char *ifname, unsigned int family, const void
*srcaddr, unsigned int srcprefix, size_t srclen, const void *dstaddr,
unsigned int dstprefix, size_t dstlen, const void *gateway, size_t
gatewaylen)+ – Removes a route from the main routing table. Parameters have
the same meaning as in +NETDEV_ADD_ROUTE()+. Returns 1 on success, 0 on
error.
- +int NETDEV_REMOVE_ROUTE_INET(const char *ifname, in_addr_t srcaddr,
unsigned int srcprefix, in_addr_t dstaddr, unsigned int dstprefix, in_addr_t
gateway)+ – Removes IPv4 route from the main routing table. Parameters have
the same meaning as in +NETDEV_ADD_ROUTE_INET()+. Returns 1 on success,
0 on error.

3 rtnetlink API
---------------
+#include "tst_rtnetlink.h"+
The rtnetlink library provides helper functions for constructing and sending
arbitrary messages and parsing kernel responses.
All of the functions below will call +tst_brk()+ on failure, unless stated
otherwise. Error values described below are returned only during test cleanup
stage.
3.1 Data structures
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
[source,c]
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
struct tst_rtnl_context;
struct tst_rtnl_attr_list {
unsigned short type;
const void *data;
ssize_t len;
const struct tst_rtnl_attr_list *sublist;
};
struct tst_rtnl_message {
struct nlmsghdr *header;
struct nlmsgerr *err;
void *payload;
size_t payload_size;
};
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+struct tst_rtnl_context+ is an opaque rtnetlink socket with buffer for
constructing and sending arbitrary messages using the functions described
below. Create a new context using +RTNL_CREATE_CONTEXT()+, then free it using
+RTNL_DESTROY_CONTEXT()+ when you're done with it.
+struct tst_rtnl_attr_list+ is a helper structure for defining complex
rtnetlink message attribute payloads, including nested attribute lists. Every
list and sublist defined using this structure is terminated by item with
negative +len+.
- +type+ is the attribute type that will be stored in +struct rtattr.rta_type+.
- +data+ contains arbitrary attribute payload.
- +len+ contains length of the +data+ attribute in bytes. If +data+ is +NULL+,
set +len+ to 0. The last item in a list or sublist must have negative length.
- +sublist+ contains a nested attribute list which will be appended after
+data+ as part of the attribute payload. +struct rtattr.rta_len+ will be
calculated automatically with proper alignment, do _not_ add the sublist size
to the +len+ field. If you do not want to add nested attributes, set
+sublist+ to +NULL+.
+struct tst_rtnl_message+ is a structure holding partially parsed rtnetlink
messages received from the kernel. +RTNL_RECV()+ returns an array of these
structures with the last item having +NULL+ in the +header+ field. Call
+RTNL_FREE_MESSAGE()+ to free a message list returned by +RTNL_RECV()+.
- +header+ is the netlink header structure of the message. +NULL+ in the header
field terminates a list of messages.
- +err+ points to the payload of +NLMSG_ERROR+ messages. It is set to +NULL+
for all other message types.
- +payload+ is a pointer to message data.
- +payload_size+ is the length of +payload+ data in bytes.
3.2 Sending and receiving messages
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- +struct tst_rtnl_context *RTNL_CREATE_CONTEXT(void)+ – Creates a new
rtnetlink communication context for use with the functions described below.
Returns +NULL+ on error.
- +void RTNL_FREE_MESSAGE(struct tst_rtnl_message *msg)+ – Frees an array of
messages returned by +RTNL_RECV()+.
- +void RTNL_DESTROY_CONTEXT(struct tst_rtnl_context *ctx)+ – Closes a
communication context created by +RTNL_CREATE_CONTEXT()+.
- +int RTNL_SEND(struct tst_rtnl_context *ctx)+ – Sends all messages waiting
in +ctx+ buffer to the kernel. If there are multiple messages to send, a new
+NLMSG_DONE+ message will be added automatically. Returns the number of
bytes sent on success. Return 0 or negative value on error.
- +int RTNL_SEND_VALIDATE(struct tst_rtnl_context *ctx)+ – Sends all messages
just like +RTNL_SEND()+, then receives the response from the kernel and
validates results of requests sent with the +NLM_F_ACK+ flag. This function
calls +tst_brk()+ as usual if communication fails but it will return error
status without terminating the test if one of the received messages contains
error code. See +RTNL_CHECK_ACKS()+ below for explanation of the return
value.
- +int RTNL_WAIT(struct tst_rtnl_context *ctx)+ – Waits until data becomes
available to read from the rtnetlink socket (timeout: 1 second). Returns 1
if there is data to read, 0 on timeout or -1 on error.
- +struct tst_rtnl_message *RTNL_RECV(struct tst_rtnl_context *ctx)+ – Receives
rtnetlink messages from the kernel. The messages are received in non-blocking
mode so calling +RTNL_WAIT()+ first is recommended. Returns an array of
partially parsed messages terminated by an item with +NULL+ in the +header+
field. On error or when there are no messages to receive, returns +NULL+.
Call +RTNL_FREE_MESSAGE()+ to free the returned data.
- +int RTNL_CHECK_ACKS(struct tst_rtnl_context *ctx, struct tst_rtnl_message
*response)+ – Validate results of requests sent with the +NLM_F_ACK+ flag.
Do not call +RTNL_ADD_MESSAGE()+ between +RTNL_SEND()+ and
+RTNL_CHECK_ACKS()+ because it will reset the state of +ctx+ and prevent
result validation. Returns 1 if all messages sent with the +NLM_F_ACK+ flag
have a corresponding message in +response+ and the error code is 0. If any
of the expected response messages is missing, this function will call
+tst_brk()+ (or return 0 during test cleanup phase). If any of the response
messages has non-zero error code, this function will return 0 and store the
first non-zero error code in global variable +tst_rtnl_errno+ (sign-flipped
just like regular libc +errno+).
3.3 Creating messages
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- +int RTNL_ADD_MESSAGE(struct tst_rtnl_context *ctx, const struct nlmsghdr
*header, const void *payload, size_t payload_size)+ – Adds new rtnetlink
message to +ctx+ buffer. You need to provide message +header+ and optional
+payload+. +payload_size+ is the size of +payload+ data in bytes. If you
don't want to add any payload data, set +payload+ to +NULL+ and
+payload_size+ to 0. This function will automatically fill the +nlmsg_len+,
+nlmsg_seq+ and +nlmsg_pid+ fields of the new message header. You don't need
to set those. It'll also automatically add +NLM_F_MULTI+ flag when needed.
Returns 1 on success, 0 on error. Note that the first call of
+RTNL_ADD_MESSAGE()+ after +RTNL_SEND()+ will reset the state of +ctx+
and +RTNL_CHECK_ACKS()+ will not work correctly until the next +RTNL_SEND()+.
- +int RTNL_ADD_ATTR(struct tst_rtnl_context *ctx, unsigned short type, const
void *data, unsigned short len)+ – Adds new attribute to the last message
in +ctx+ buffer. See +RTNL_ADD_MESSAGE()+. You need to provide attribute
+type+ which will be stored in +struct rtattr.rta_type+, optional payload
+data+ and payload size +len+ in bytes. If you don't want to add any payload,
set +data+ to +NULL+ and +len+ to 0. Returns 1 on success, 0 on error.
- +int RTNL_ADD_ATTR_STRING(struct tst_rtnl_context *ctx, unsigned short type,
const char *data)+ – Adds new string attribute to the last message in +ctx+
buffer. Parameters and return value are the same as for +RTNL_ADD_ATTR()+,
except the payload length is calculated using +strlen()+.
- +int RTNL_ADD_ATTR_LIST(struct tst_rtnl_context *ctx, const struct
tst_rtnl_attr_list *list)+ – Adds a list of attributes to the last message
in +ctx+ buffer. See description of +struct tst_rtnl_attr_list+ and
+RTNL_ADD_MESSAGE()+ above. Returns the number of added attributes on
success (nested attributes are not counted), -1 on error.
