The test_tc_edt BPF program uses a custom section name, which works fine when manually loading it with tc, but prevents it from being loaded with libbpf. Update the program section name to "tc" to be able to manipulate it with a libbpf-based C test. Signed-off-by: Alexis Lothoré (eBPF Foundation) <[email protected]>

test_tc_edt.sh uses a pair of veth and a BPF program attached to the TX veth to shape the traffic to 5Mbps. It then checks that the amount of received bytes (at interface level), compared to the TX duration, indeed matches 5Mbps. Convert this test script to the test_progs framework: - keep the double veth setup, isolated in two veths - run a small tcp server, and connect client to server - start pushing bytes continuously, but for a shorter period of time than the original test (to keep CI run duration tolerable) - measure the number or received bytes through /proc/net/dev, compute the resulting rate - ensure that this rate is in a 2% error margin around the target rate This two percent value, while being tight, is hopefully large enough to not make the test too flaky in CI, while also turning it into a small example of BPF-based shaping.

Now that test_tc_edt has been integrated in test_progs, remove the legacy shell script. Signed-off-by: Alexis Lothoré (eBPF Foundation) <[email protected]>
test_tc_edt currently defines the target rate in both the userspace and BPF parts. This value could be defined once in the userspace part if we make it able to configure the BPF program before starting the test. Add a target_rate variable in the BPF part, and make the userspace part set it to the desired rate before attaching the shaping program.
