Hi All ,

 

Description of problem:

 

I am getting error while running   if4-mtu-change and if6-updown  network stress interfaces test case  from LTP version  20120903 (ltp-full-20120903.tar) i.e.  on Linux 3.2 kernel. Below are the outputs for error.

 

 

The Network stress interfaces part of the LTP stress fails.

 

network_stress.interface:if4-mtu-change                 FAIL       2    

network_stress.interface:if6-updown                     FAIL       2  


 

Below are the cause for failing above mentioned testcase:

 

if4-mtu-change01    0  TINFO  :  Verify the IPv4 connectivity is not broken when ifconfig command changes MTU 128 times every 5 seconds

if4-mtu-change01    1  TFAIL  :  eth1 is broken.

if4-mtu-change02    0  TINFO  :  Verify the IPv4 connectivity is not broken when ip command changes MTU 128 times every 5 seconds

if4-mtu-change02    2  TBROK  :  Test Link 0 is somthing wrong.

 

if6-updown    1  TBROK  :  Link-local address is not found at eth1 on the remote host

 

Suggested Code changes:

 

To  resolve above mentioned  error  by making  changes in  ltp-full-20120903/testcases/network/stress/interface/if4-mtu-change  and  ltp-full-20120903/testcases/network/stress/interface/if6-updown b/ltp-full-20120903/testcases/network/stress/interface/if6-updown  file.

Could you please let me know that above code changes are valid or not ? Please suggest me if there are any other solutions to resolve above error.

Any help would be appreciated !!!!
