How to configure to use "make check"

- -

What is "make check"

-

-"make check" is a target in the top level makefile. It takes care of -running a number of unit and system tests to confirm that FreeSWAN has -been compiled correctly, and that no new bugs have been introduced. -

-

-As FreeSWAN contains both kernel and userspace components, doing testing -of FreeSWAN requires that the kernel be simulated. This is typically difficult -to do as a kernel requires that it be run on bare hardware. A technology -has emerged that makes this simpler. This is -User Mode Linux. -

- -

-User-Mode Linux is a way to build a Linux kernel such that it can run as a process -under another Linux (or in the future other) kernel. Presently, this can only be -done for 2.4 guest kernels. The host kernel can be 2.2 or 2.4. -

- -

-"make check" expects to be able to build User-Mode Linux kernels with FreeSWAN included. -To do this it needs to have some files downloaded and extracted prior -to running "make check". This is described in the -UML testing document. -

- -

-After having run the example in the UML testing document and -successfully brought up the four machine combination, you are ready to -use "make check" -

- -

Running "make check"

-

-"make check" works by walking the FreeSWAN source tree invoking the -"check" target at each node. At present there are tests defined only -for the klips directory. These tests will use the UML -infrastructure to test out pieces of the klips code. -

-

-The results of the tests can be recorded. If the environment variable -$REGRESSRESULTS is non-null, then the results of each -test will be recorded. This can be used as part of a nightly -regression testing system, see -Nightly testing for more details. -

-

-"make check" otherwise prints a minimal amount of output for each -test, and indicates pass/fail status of each test as they are run. -Failed tests do not cause failure of the target in the form of exit -codes. -

- -

How to write a "make check" test

- -

Structure of a test

- -

-Each test consists of a set of directories under testing/. -There are directories for klips, pluto, packaging -and libraries. -Each directory has a list of tests to run is stored in a file called TESTLIST in that directory. e.g. testing/klips/TESTLIST. -

- -

The TESTLIST

-

-This isn't actually a shell script. It just looks like one. Some tools other than -/bin/sh process it. Lines that start with # are comments.

- -
-# test-kind     directory-containing-test       expectation     [PR#]
-
- -

The first word provides the test type, detailed below.

-

The second word is the name of the test to run. This the directory -in which the test case is to be found..

-

The third word may be one of: -

-
blank/good
-
the test is believed to function, report failure
-
bad
-
the test is known to fail, report unexpected success
-
suspended
-
the test should not be run
-
- -

-The fourth word may be a number, which is a PR# if the test is -failing. -

- -

Test kinds

-The test types are: - -
-
skiptest
-
means run no test.
-
ctltest
-
means run a single system without input/output.
-
klipstest
-
means run a single system with input/output networks
-
umlplutotest
-
means run a pair of systems
-
umlXhost
-
run an arbitrary number of systems -
suntest (TBD)
-
means run a quad of east/west/sunrise/sunset
-
roadtest (TBD)
-

-
extrudedtest (TBD)
-
means run a quad of east-sunrise + warriorsouth + park
-
mkinsttest -
a test of the "make install" machinery.
-
kernel_test_patch -
a test of the "make kernelpatch" machinery.
-
- -Tests marked (TBD) have yet to be fully defined. -

- -

-Each test directory has a file in it called testparams.sh. -This file sets a number of environment variables to define the -parameters of the test. -

- -

Common parameters

-
-
TESTNAME
-
the name of the test (repeated for checking purposes)
- -
TEST_TYPE
-
the type of the test (repeat of type type above)
- -
TESTHOST
-
the name of the UML machine to run for the test, typically "east" - or "west"
- -
TEST_PURPOSE
-
The purpose of the test is one of: - -
-
goal
-
The goal purpose is where a test is defined for code that is not yet -finished. The test indicates when the goals have in fact been reached.
-
regress
-
This is a test to determine that a previously existing bug has been repaired. This -test will initially be created to reproduce the bug in isolation, and then the bug will -be fixed.
-
exploit
-
This is a set of packets/programs that causes a vulnerability to be -exposed. It is a specific variation of the regress option.
-
-
- -
TEST_GOAL_ITEM
-
in the case of a goal test, this is a reference to the requirements document
- -
TEST_PROB_REPORT
-
in the case of regression test, this the problem report number from GNATS
- -
TEST_EXPLOIT_URL
-
in the case of an exploit, this is a URL referencing the paper explaining -the origin of the test and the origin of exploit software
- -
REF_CONSOLE_OUTPUT
-
a file in the test directory that contains the sanitized console - output against which to compare the output of the actual test.
-
REF_CONSOLE_FIXUPS
-
a list of scripts (found in klips/test/fixups) to - apply to sanitize the console output of the machine under test. - These are typically perl, awk or sed scripts that remove things in - the kernel output that change each time the test is run and/or - compiled. -
-
INIT_SCRIPT
-

a file of commands that is fed into the virtual machine's console - in single user mode prior to starting the tests. This file will - usually set up any eroute's and SADB entries that are required for - the test.

-

Lines beginning with # are skipped. Blank lines are - skipped. Otherwise, a shell prompted is waited for each time - (consisting of \n#) and then the command is sent. - Note that the prompt is waited for before the command and not after, - so completion of the last command in the script is not - required. This is often used to invoke a program to monitor the - system, e.g. ipsec pf_key. -

-
RUN_SCRIPT
-

a file of commands that is fed into the virtual machine's console - in single user mode, before the packets are sent. On single machine - tests, this script doesn't provide any more power than INIT_SCRIPT, - but is implemented for consistency's sake.

-
FINAL_SCRIPT
-

a file of commands that is fed into the virtual machine's console - in single user mode after the final packet is sent. Similar to INIT_SCRIPT, - above. If not specified, then the single command "halt" is sent. - If specified, then the script should end with a halt command to - nicely shutdown the UML. -

-
CONSOLEDIFFDEBUG
-
If set to "true" then the series of console fixups (see REF_CONSOLE_FIXUPS) will be output after it is constructed. (It should be set to "false", or unset otherwise)
-
NETJIGDEBUG
-
If set to "true" then the series of console fixups (see REF_CONSOLE_FIXUPS) will be output after it is constructed. (It should be set to "false", or unset otherwise)
-
NETJIGTESTDEBUG
-
If set to "netjig", then the results of talking to the uml_netjig -will be printed to stderr during the test. In addition, the jig will -be invoked with --debug, which causes it to log its process ID, and -wait 60 seconds before continuing. This can be used if you are trying -to debug the uml_netjig program itself. -
HOSTTESTDEBUG
-
If set to "hosttest", then the results of taling to the consoles of the UMLs will -be printed to stderr during the test. -
NETJIGWAITUSER
-
If set to "waituser", then the scripts will wait forever for user - input before they shut the tests down. Use this is if you are - debugging through the kernel.
- -
PACKETRATE
-
A number, in miliseconds (default is 500ms) at which packets will - be replayed by the netjig.
-
- - -

KLIPStest paramaters

-

-The klipstest function starts a program -(testing/utils/uml_netjig/uml_netjig) to -setup a bunch of I/O sockets (that simulate network interfaces). It -then exports the references to these sockets to the environment and -invokes (using system()) a given script. It waits for the script to -finish. -

- - - -

-The script invoked (testing/utils/host-test.tcl) is a TCL -expect script that arranges to start the UML -and configure it appropriately for the test. The configuration is done -with the script given above for INIT_SCRIPT. The TCL script then forks, -leaves the UML in the background and exits. uml_netjig continues. It then -starts listening to the simulated network answering ARPs and inserting -packets as appropriate. -

- -

-The klipstest function invokes uml_netjig with arguments -to capture output from network interface(s) and insert packets as -appropriate: -

-
PUB_INPUT
-
a pcap file to feed in on - the public (encrypted) interface. (typically, eth1)
-
PRIV_INPUT
-
a pcap file to feed in on the private (plain-text) interface - (typically, eth0).
-
REF_PUB_OUTPUT
-
a text file containing tcpdump output. Packets on the public - (eth1) interface are captured to a - pcap file by - uml_netjig. The klipstest function then uses tcpdump on - the file to produce text output, which is compared to the file given.
-
REF_PUB_FILTER
-
a program that will filter the TCPDUMP output to do further processing. Defaults to "cat".
-
REF_PRIV_OUTPUT
-
a text file containing tcpdump output. Packets on the private - (eth0) interface are captured and compared after conversion by - tcpdump, as with REFPUBOUTPUT.
-
REF_PRIV_FILTER
-
a program that will filter the TCPDUMP output to do further processing. Defaults to "cat".
-
EXITONEMPTY
-
a flag for uml_netjig. It should contain - "--exitonempty" of uml_netjig should exit when all of the input - (PUBINPUT,PRIVINPUT) packets have been injected.
-
ARPREPLY
-
a flag for uml_netjig. It should contain "--arpreply" - if uml_netjig should reply to ARP requests. One will - typically set this to avoid having to fudge the ARP cache manually.
-
TCPDUMPFLAGS
-
a set of flags for the tcpdump used when converting captured - output. Typical values will include "-n" to turn off DNS, and often - "-E" to set the decryption key (tcpdump 3.7.1 and higher only) for - ESP packets. The "-t" flag (turn off timestamps) is provided automatically
- -
NETJIG_EXTRA
-
additional comments to be sent to the netjig. This may arrange to - record or create additional networks, or may toggle options. -
- -

mkinsttest paramaters

-

-The basic concept of the mkinsttest test type is that it -performs a "make install" to a temporary $DESTDIR. The resulting tree can then -be examined to determine if it was done properly. The files can be uninstalled -to determine if the file list was correct, or the contents of files can be -examined more precisely. -

- -
-
INSTALL_FLAGS
-
If set, then an install will be done. This provides the set of flags to -provide for the install. The target to be used (usually "install") must be -among the flags.
-
POSTINSTALL_SCRIPT
-
If set, a script to run after initial "make install". Two arguments are provided: an absolute path to the root of the FreeSWAN src tree, and an absolute path to the temporary installation area.
-
INSTALL2_FLAGS
-
If set, a second install will be done using these flags. Similarly to -INSTALL_FLAGS, the target must be among the flags.
-
UNINSTALL_FLAGS
-
If set, an uninstall will be done using these flags. Similarly to -INSTALL_FLAGS, the target (usually "uninstall") must be among the flags.
-
REF_FIND_f_l_OUTPUT
-
If set, a find $ROOT ( -type f -or -type -l ) will be done to get a list of a real files and symlinks. The resulting file will be compared -to the file listed by this option.
-
REF_FILE_CONTENTS
-
If set, it should point to a file containing records for the form: -
-  reffile   samplefile
-
-one record per line. A diff between the provided reference file, and the -sample file (located in the temporary installation root) will be done for -each record. -
-
- -

rpm_build_install_test paramaters

-

-The rpm_build_install_test type is to verify that the proper -packing list is produced by "make rpm", and that the mechanisms for -building the kernel modules produce consistent results. -

- -
-
RPM_KERNEL_SOURCE
-
Point to an extracted copy of the RedHat kernel source code. Variables -from the environment may be used.
-
REF_RPM_CONTENTS
-
This is a file containing one record per line. Each record consists -of a RPM name (may contain wildcards) and a filename to compare the -contents to. The RPM will be located and a file list will be produced with -rpm2cpio.
-
- -

libtest paramaters

-

-The libtest test is for testing library routines. The library file is -expected to provided an #ifdef by the name of -library. -The libtest type invokes the C compiler to compile this file, links it against -libfreeswan.a (to resolve any other dependancies) and runs the -test with the -r argument to invoke a regression test.

-

The library test case is expected to do a self-test, exiting with status code 0 if everything is okay, and with non-zero otherwise. A core dump (exit code greater than 128) is noted specifically. -

-

-Unlike other tests, there are no subdirectories required, or other -parameters to set. -

- -

umlplutotest paramaters

-

-The umlplutotest function starts a pair of user mode line processes. -This is a 2-host version of umlXhost. The "EAST" and "WEST" slots are defined. -

- -

umlXhost parameters

-

-The umlXtest function starts an arbitrary number of user mode line processes. -

- - - -

-The script invoked (testing/utils/Xhost-test.tcl) is a TCL -expect script that arranges to start each -UML -and configure it appropriately for the test. It then starts listening -(using uml_netjig) to the simulated network answering ARPs and -inserting packets as appropriate. -

- -

-umlXtest has a series of slots, each of which should be filled by a host. -The list of slots is controlled by the variable, XHOST_LIST. This variable -should be set to a space seperated list of slots. The former umlplutotest -is now implemented as a variation of the umlXhost test, -with XHOST_LIST="EAST WEST". -

- -

-For each host slot that is defined, a series of variables should be -filled in, defining what configuration scripts to use for that host. -

- -

-The following are used to control the console input and output to the system. -Where the string ${host} is present, the host slot should be filled in. -I.e. for the two host system with XHOST_LIST="EAST WEST", then the -variables: EAST_INIT_SCRIPT and WEST_INIT_SCRIPT will exist. -

-
${host}HOST
-
The name of the UML host which will fill this slot
-
${host}_INIT_SCRIPT
-

a file of commands that is fed into the virtual machine's console - in single user mode prior to starting the tests. This file will - usually set up any eroute's and SADB entries that are required for - the test. Similar to INIT_SCRIPT, above.

-
${host}_RUN_SCRIPT
-

a file of commands that is fed into the virtual machine's console - in single user mode, before the packets are sent. This set of - commands is run after all of the virtual machines are initialized. - I.e. after EAST_INIT_SCRIPT AND WEST_INIT_SCRIPT. This script - can therefore do things that require that all machines are properly - configured.

-
${host}_RUN2_SCRIPT
-

a file of commands that is fed into the virtual machine's console - in single user mode, after the packets are sent. This set of - commands is run before any of the virtual machines have been shut - down. (I.e. before EAST_FINAL_SCRIPT AND WEST_FINAL_SCRIPT.) - This script can therefore catch post-activity status reports.

-
${host}_FINAL_SCRIPT
-

a file of commands that is fed into the virtual machine's console - in single user mode after the final packet is sent. Similar to INIT_SCRIPT, - above. If not specified, then the single command "halt" is sent. Note that - when this script is run, the other virtual machines may already have been killed. - If specified, then the script should end with a halt command to nicely - shutdown the UML. -

-
REF_${host}_CONSOLE_OUTPUT
-
Similar to REF_CONSOLE_OUTPUT, above. -
-

- -

Some additional flags apply to all hosts: -

-
REF_CONSOLE_FIXUPS
-
a list of scripts (found in klips/test/fixups) to - apply to sanitize the console output of the machine under test. - These are typically perl, awk or sed scripts that remove things in - the kernel output that change each time the test is run and/or - compiled. -
-
-

- -

In addition to input to the console, the networks may have input -fed to them: -

-
EAST_INPUT/WEST_INPUT
-
a pcap file to feed in on - the private network side of each network. The "EAST" and "WEST" here -refer to the networks, not the hosts.
-
REF_PUB_FILTER
-
a program that will filter the TCPDUMP output to do further processing. Defaults to "cat".
-
REF_EAST_FILTER/REF_WEST_FILTER
-
a program that will filter the TCPDUMP output to do further processing. Defaults to "cat".
< -
TCPDUMPFLAGS
-
a set of flags for the tcpdump used when converting captured - output. Typical values will include "-n" to turn off DNS, and often - "-E" to set the decryption key (tcpdump 3.7.1 and higher only) for - ESP packets. The "-t" flag (turn off timestamps) is provided automatically
-
REF_EAST_OUTPUT/REF_WEST_OUTPUT
-
a text file containing tcpdump output. Packets on the private - (eth0) interface are captured and compared after conversion by - tcpdump, as with REF_PUB_OUTPUT.
-

- -

-There are two additional environment variables that may be set on the -command line: -

-
NETJIGVERBOSE=verbose export NETJIGVERBOSE
-
If set, then the test output will be "chatty", and let you know what - commands it is running, and as packets are sent. Without it set, the - output is limited to success/failure messages.
-
NETJIGTESTDEBUG=netjig export NETJIGTESTDEBUG
-
This will enable debugging of the communication with uml_netjig, - and turn on debugging in this utility. - This does not imply NETJIGVERBOSE.
-
HOSTTESTDEBUG=hosttest export HOSTTESTDEBUG
-
This will show all interactions with the user-mode-linux - consoles
-
-

- -

kernel_patch_test paramaters

-

-The kernel_patch_test function takes some kernel source, copies it with -lndir, and then applies the patch as produced by "make kernelpatch". -

-

-The following are used to control the input and output to the system: -

-
KERNEL_NAME
-
the kernel name, typically something like "linus" or "rh"
-
KERNEL_VERSION
-
the kernel version number, as in "2.2" or "2.4".
-
KERNEL_${KERNEL_NAME}${KERNEL_VERSION}_SRC
-
This variable should set in the environment, probably in - ~/freeswan-regress-env.sh. Examples of this variables would be - KERNEL_LINUS2_0_SRC or KERNEL_RH7_3_SRC. This variable should point - to an extracted copy of the kernel source in question.
-
REF_PATCH_OUTPUT
-
a copy of the patch output to compare against
-
KERNEL_PATCH_LEAVE_SOURCE
-
If set to a non-empty string, then the patched kernel source is not - removed at the end of the test. This will typically be set in the - environment while debugging.
-
-

- -

module_compile paramaters

-

-The module_compile test attempts to build the KLIPS module against a -given set of kernel source. This is also done by the RPM tests, but -in a very specific manner. -

-

-There are two variations of this test - one where the kernel either -doesn't need to be configured, or is already done, and tests were there -is a local configuration file. -

-

-Where the kernel doesn't need to be configured, the kernel source that -is found is simply used. It may be a RedHat-style kernel, where one -can cause it to configure itself via rhconfig.h-style definitions. Or, -it may just be a kernel tree that has been configured. -

-

-If the variable KERNEL_CONFIG_FILE is set, then a new directory is -created for the kernel source. It is populated with lndir(1). The referenced -file is then copied in as .config, and "make oldconfig" is used to configure -the kernel. This resulting kernel is then used as the reference source. -

-

-In all cases, the kernel source is found the same was for the kernelpatch -test, i.e. via KERNEL_VERSION/KERNEL_NAME and KERNEL_${KERNEL_NAME}${KERNEL_VERSION}_SRC.

-

-Once there is kernel source, the module is compiled using the top-level -"make module" target. -

-

-The test is considered successful if an executable is found in OUTPUT/module/ipsec.o at the end of the test. -

-
-
KERNEL_NAME
-
the kernel name, typically something like "linus" or "rh"
-
KERNEL_VERSION
-
the kernel version number, as in "2.2" or "2.4".
-
KERNEL_${KERNEL_NAME}${KERNEL_VERSION}_SRC
-
This variable should set in the environment, probably in - ~/freeswan-regress-env.sh. Examples of this variables would be - KERNEL_LINUS2_0_SRC or KERNEL_RH7_3_SRC. This variable should point - to an extracted copy of the kernel source in question.
-
KERNEL_CONFIG_FILE
-
The configuration file for the kernel.
-
KERNEL_PATCH_LEAVE_SOURCE
-
If set to a non-empty string, then the configured kernel source is not - removed at the end of the test. This will typically be set in the - environment while debugging.
-
MODULE_DEF_INCLUDE
-
The include file that will be used to configure the KLIPS module, and - possibly the kernel source.
-
- -

Current pitfalls

- -
-
"tcpdump dissector" not available.
-
This is a non-fatal warning. If uml_netjig is invoked with the -t - option, then it will attempt to use tcpdump's dissector to decode - each packet that it processes. The dissector is presently not - available, so this option it normally turned off at compile time. - The dissector library will be released with tcpdump version - 4.0.
