    selftests: Add test for timing a bind request to a port with a populated bhash entry · 538aaf9b
    Joanne Koong authored
    This test populates the bhash table for a given port with
    MAX_THREADS * MAX_CONNECTIONS sockets, and then times how long
    a bind request on the port takes.
    
    When populating the bhash table, we create the sockets and then bind
    the sockets to the same address and port (SO_REUSEADDR and SO_REUSEPORT
    are set). When timing how long a bind on the port takes, we bind on a
    different address without SO_REUSEPORT set. We do not set SO_REUSEPORT
    because we are interested in the case where the bind request does not
    go through the tb->fastreuseport path, which is fragile (eg
    tb->fastreuseport path does not work if binding with a different uid).
    
    To run the test locally, I did:
    * ulimit -n 65535000
    * ip addr add 2001:0db8:0:f101::1 dev eth0
    * ./bind_bhash_test 443
