Because the host and guest share the same IP address with passt/pasta, it's
not possible for the guest to directly address the host. Therefore we
allow packets from the guest going to a special "NAT to host" address to be
redirected to the host, appearing there as though they have both source and
destination address of loopback.
Currently that special address is always the address of the default
gateway (or none). That can be a problem if we want that gateway to be
addressable by the guest. Therefore, allow the special "NAT to host"
address to be overridden on the command line with a new --map-host-loopback
option.
In order to exercise and test it, update the passt_in_ns and perf
tests to use this option and give different mapping addresses for the
two layers of the environment.

In the TCP throughput tests, we adjust the guest's MTU in order to test
various packet sizes. Some of those are below 1280 which causes IPv6 to
be deconfigured on the guest interface. When we increase it above 1280
again, IPv6 is re-enabled and we get an address in the right prefix with
NDP, but we don't get exactly the expected address back - that's only
communicated with --config-net or DHCPv6.
With changes to how we handle NAT this can cause some of the IPv6 tests to
fail, because they don't use the address that passt/pasta expects, and the
guest doesn't initiate any traffic which allows us to learn what the new
address is.
Work around this by re-invoking dhclient -6 between adjusting the MTU and
running IPv6 test cases.

systemd-resolved has the rather strange behaviour of listening on the

However our tests still fail in this case. We have a special case for when
the guest's resolv.conf needs to differ from the host's because the

This used to work on my setup as I kept reusing an old mbuto
(initramfs) image, but since commit 65923ba798 ("conf: Accept
duplicate and conflicting options, the last one wins"), --netns-only
is, as originally intended, a pasta-only option.
I had used --netns-only, here, to prevent passt from trying to detach
its own user namespace, which is not permitted as we're in a chroot,
see unshare(2). In turn, we need the chroot because passt can't pivot
root directly into its own empty filesystem using an initramfs.
Use switch_root into the tmpfs mountpoint instead of chroot, so that
we can still detach user namespaces.
Note that in the mbuto images, we can't switch to nobody as we have
no password entries at all, so we need to detach a further user
namespace before starting passt, to trick passt into running as UID
0.
Given the new sequence, it's now more convenient to directly switch
to a detached network namespace as well, which means we need to move
the initialisation of the dummy network from the init script into the
test script.

test/pasta_options/log_to_file checks that pasta truncates its log file
when started. It does that by starting pasta with a log file once, then
starting it again and checking that after the second round, the log file
has only one line: the startup banner from the second invocation.
However, this test will break if the second invocation logs any additional
messages at startup. This can easily happen on a host with multiple
network interfaces due to the "Multiple default route" informational

drawbacks:

* It makes a test that's ostensibly for pasta itself dependent on the

* It precludes runnning the tests in an isolated network environment
The same concerns largely apply to building podman too, because it's pretty
common for Go builds to download dependencies themselves. Therefore move
the download and build of podman from the test itself, to the Makefile
where we prepare other test assets.

When using the old-style "pane" methods of executing commands during the
tests, we need to scan the shell output for prompts in order to tell when
commands have finished. This is inherently unreliable because commands
could output things that look like prompts, and prompts might not look like
we expect them to. The only way to really fix this is to use a better way
of dispatching commands, like the newer "context" system.
However, it's awkward to convert everything to "context" right at the
moment, so we're still relying on some tests that do work most of the time.
It is, however, particularly sensitive to fancy coloured prompts using
escape sequences. Currently we try to handle this by stripping actual
ESC characters with tr, then looking for some common variants.
We can do a bit better: instead strip all escape sequences using sed before
looking for our prompt. Or, at least, any one using [a-zA-Z] as the
terminating character. Strictly speaking ANSI escapes can be terminated by
any character in 0x40..0x7e, which isn't easily expressed in a regexp.
This should capture all common ones, though.
With this transformation we can simplify the list of patterns we then look
for as a prompt, removing some redundant variants.

valgrind complains if we pass a NULL buffer to recv(), even if we use
MSG_TRUNC, in which case it's actually safe. For a long time we've had
a valgrind suppression for this. It singles out the recv() in
tcp_sock_consume(), the only place we use MSG_TRUNC.
However, tcp_sock_consume() only has a single caller, which makes it a
prime candidate for inlining. If inlined, it won't appear on the stack and
valgrind won't match the correct suppression.
It appears that certain compiler versions (for example gcc-13.2.1 in
Fedora 39) will inline this function even with the -O0 we use for valgrind
builds. This breaks the suppression leading to a spurious failure in the
tests.
There's not really any way to adjust the suppression itself without making
it overly broad (we don't want to match other recv() calls). So, as a hack
explicitly prevent inlining of this function when we're making a valgrind

For the TCP throughput tests, we use iperf3's -O "omit" option which
ignores results for the given time at the beginning of the test. Currently
we calculate this as 1/6th of the test measurement time. The purpose of
-O, however, is to skip over the TCP slow start period, which in no way
depends on the overall length of the test.
The slow start time is roughly speaking
log_2 ( max_window_size / MSS ) * round_trip_time
These factors all vary between tests and machines we're running on, but we
can estimate some reasonable bounds for them:
* The maximum window size is bounded by the buffer sizes at each end,
which shouldn't exceed 16MiB
* The mss varies with the MTU we use, but the smallest we use in tests is
~256 bytes
* Round trip time will vary with the system, but with these essentially
local transfers it will typically be well under 1ms (on my laptop it is
closer to 0.03ms)
That gives a worst case slow start time of about 16ms. Setting an omit
time of 0.1s uniformly is therefore more than enough, and substantially
smaller than what we calculate now for the default case (10s / 6 ~= 1.7s).
This reduces total time for the standard benchmark run by around 30s.

The TCP packet size used on the passt L2 link (qemu socket) makes a huge
difference to passt/pasta throughput; many of passt's overheads (chiefly
syscalls) are per-packet.
That packet size is largely determined by the MTU on the L2 link, so we
benchmark for a number of different MTUs. That works well for the guest to
host transfers. For the host to guest transfers, we purport to test for
different MTUs, but we're not actually adjusting anything interesting.
The host to guest transfers adjust the MTU on the "host's" (actually ns)
loopback interface. However, that only affects the packet size for the
socket going to passt, not the packet size for the L2 link that passt
manages - passt can and will repack the stream into packets of its own
size. Since the depacketization on that socket is handled by the kernel it
doesn't have a lot of bearing on passt's performance.
We can't fix this by changing the L2 link MTU from the guest side (as we do
for guest to host), because that would only change the guest's view of the
MTU, passt would still think it has the large MTU. We could test this by
using the --mtu option to passt, but that would require restarting passt
for each run, which is awkward in the current setup. So, for now, drop all
the "small MTU" tests for host to guest.

Packet size can make a big difference to UDP throughput, so it makes sense
to measure it for a variety of different sizes. Currently we do this by
adjusting the MTU on the relevant interface before running iperf3.
However, the UDP packet size has no inherent connection to the MTU - it's
controlled by the sender, and the MTU just affects whether the packet will
make it through or be fragmented. The only reason adjusting the MTU works
is because iperf3 bases its default packet size on the (path) MTU.
We can test this more simply by using the -l option to the iperf3 client
to directly control the packet size, instead of adjusting the MTU.
As well as simplifying this lets us test different packet sizes for host to
ns traffic. We couldn't do that previously because we don't have
permission to change the MTU on the host.

Currently we make TCP throughput measurements for spliced connections with

really interesting.
Unlike with tap connections, spliced connections only involve the loopback
interface on host and container, not a "real" external interface. lo
typically has an MTU of 65535 and there is very little reason to ever
change that. So, the measurements for smaller MTUs are rarely going to be
relevant.
In addition, the fact that we can offload all the {de,}packetization to the
kernel with splice(2) means that the throughput difference between these
MTUs isn't very great anyway.

iperf3 generates statistics about its run on both the client and server
sides. They don't have exactly the same information, but both have the
pieces we need (AFAICT the server communicates some nformation to the
client over the control socket, so the most important information is in the
client side output, even if measured by the server).
Currently we use the server side information for our measurements. Using
the client side information has several advantages though:
* We can directly wait for the client to complete and we know we'll have
the output we want. We don't need to sleep to give the server time to
write out the results.
* That in turn means we can wrap up as soon as the client is done, we
don't need to wait overlong to make sure everything is finished.
* The slightly different organisation of the data in the client output
means that we always want the same json value, rather than requiring
slightly different onces for UDP and TCP.
The fact that we avoid some extra delays speeds up the overal run of the
perf tests by around 7 minutes (out of around 35 minutes) on my laptop.
The fact that we no longer unconditionally kill client and server after
a certain time means that the client could run indefinitely if the server
doesn't respond. We mitigate that by setting 1s connect timeout on the
client. This isn't foolproof - if we get an initial response, but then
lose connectivity this could still run indefinitely, however it does cover
by far the most likely failure cases. --snd-timeout would provide more
robustness, but I've hit odd failures when trying to use it.
