selftests/net: SO_TXTIME with ETF and FQ
The SO_TXTIME API enables packet tranmission with delayed delivery. This is currently supported by the ETF and FQ packet schedulers. Evaluate the interface with both schedulers. Install the scheduler and send a variety of packets streams: without delay, with one delayed packet, with multiple ordered delays and with reordering. Verify that packets are released by the scheduler in expected order. The ETF qdisc requires a timestamp in the future on every packet. It needs a delay on the qdisc else the packet is dropped on dequeue for having a delivery time in the past. The test value is experimentally derived. ETF requires clock_id CLOCK_TAI. It checks this base and drops for non-conformance. The FQ qdisc expects clock_id CLOCK_MONOTONIC, the base used by TCP as of commit fb420d5d91c1 ("tcp/fq: move back to CLOCK_MONOTONIC"). Within a flow there is an expecation of ordered delivery, as shown by delivery times of test 4. The FQ qdisc does not require all packets to have timestamps and does not drop for non-conformance. The large (msec) delays are chosen to avoid flakiness. Output: SO_TXTIME ipv6 clock monotonic payload:a delay:28 expected:0 (us) SO_TXTIME ipv4 clock monotonic payload:a delay:38 expected:0 (us) SO_TXTIME ipv6 clock monotonic payload:a delay:40 expected:0 (us) SO_TXTIME ipv4 clock monotonic payload:a delay:33 expected:0 (us) SO_TXTIME ipv6 clock monotonic payload:a delay:10120 expected:10000 (us) SO_TXTIME ipv4 clock monotonic payload:a delay:10102 expected:10000 (us) [.. etc ..] OK.
