Notes for test-runner usage
|
|
***************************
|
|
|
|
Tool Description
|
|
================
|
|
|
|
test-runner is an automated test execution tool for IWD. It is capable of
|
|
creating the emulated environments representing a variety of network topologies
|
|
and run the automated tests of IWD functionality.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Software Prerequisites
|
|
======================
|
|
|
|
The test-runner tool requires the following binaries to be present on the host
|
|
OS:
|
|
|
|
Name: Tested ver.:
|
|
1. qemu 2.4.1
|
|
2. Linux kernel 4.20+
|
|
3. dbus-daemon 1.11.18
|
|
4. iproute2
|
|
5. iw 3.17
|
|
6. python 3.9
|
|
7. haveged no ver. avail.
|
|
8. hostapd recent
|
|
9. <iwd>/tools/hwsim 0.0
|
|
10. <iwd>/src/iwd 0.0
|
|
11. ofono (optional)
|
|
12. phonesim (optional)
|
|
13. wpa_supplicant 2.9
|
|
14. radvd 2.18
|
|
|
|
Note: The version for hostapd is listed as 'recent'. Older hostapd versions
|
|
will work but we are continually adopting new features from hostapd and using
|
|
those to test. Its recommended to use a recent release of hostapd.
|
|
|
|
Note: The test-runner mounts host's file system in readonly mode and executes
|
|
the above binaries inside of an emulated environment directly from it.
|
|
|
|
Note: Running EAP-SIM/AKA/AKA' tests using oFono will require oFono and
|
|
phonesim to be installed on the host. This is explained further in the
|
|
"Running with oFono and phonesim" section.
|
|
|
|
In addition, the following Python packages are required:
|
|
|
|
Name: Tested ver.:
|
|
1. python-prettytable 0.7.2
|
|
2. python-termcolor 1.1.0
|
|
3. python-pyroute2 0.5.14
|
|
4. python-gobject 3.38.0
|
|
5. python-dbus 1.2.16
|
|
|
|
Building Kernel
|
|
===============
|
|
|
|
The test-runner tool requires a kernel that is at least build with these
|
|
minimal options for a successful boot and execution:
|
|
|
|
<arch>_defconfig Default kernel configuration
|
|
|
|
kvm_guest.config Default configuration for
|
|
kvm guests
|
|
|
|
<iwd>/tools/test_runner_kernel_config The test-runner specific
|
|
configuration
|
|
|
|
These configurations should be installed as .config in the kernel source
|
|
directory. To make a x86_64 guest kernel the sequence of commands may look
|
|
as follows:
|
|
|
|
$ cd linux-X.X.X
|
|
|
|
$ make x86_64_defconfig
|
|
|
|
$ make kvm_guest.config
|
|
|
|
$ sh <iwd>/tools/test_runner_kernel_config
|
|
|
|
$ make olddefconfig
|
|
|
|
After that a default kernel with the required options can be built:
|
|
|
|
$ make -j$(nproc)
|
|
|
|
Note: If your host distribution does not contain a regulatory.db you may get an
|
|
error similar to this when building the kernel:
|
|
|
|
No rule to make target '/lib/firmware/regulatory.db'...
|
|
|
|
To fix this you must download the regulatory.db manually and place it in
|
|
/lib/firmware. This can be found here:
|
|
|
|
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/sforshee/wireless-regdb.git
|
|
|
|
Note: To catch locking related issues the following set of kernel config
|
|
options may be useful:
|
|
|
|
CONFIG_LOCKDEP_SUPPORT=y
|
|
CONFIG_DEBUG_SPINLOCK=y
|
|
CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC=y
|
|
CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING=y
|
|
CONFIG_LOCKDEP=y
|
|
CONFIG_DEBUG_MUTEXES=y
|
|
|
|
By default the test-runner will search for the kernel image in these locations:
|
|
|
|
<iwd>/tools/bzImage
|
|
|
|
or
|
|
|
|
<iwd>/tools/arch/x86/boot/bzImage
|
|
|
|
An arbitrary kernel image location can be specified by using '--kernel <path>'
|
|
parameter into test-runner.
|
|
|
|
Running Automated Tests
|
|
=======================
|
|
Before running any tests, its expected that the folder /var/lib/iwd exists on
|
|
the host machine. If not, you will see a mounting error when starting
|
|
test-runner.
|
|
|
|
mkdir /var/lib/iwd
|
|
|
|
By default, the automated test configuration directories reside in
|
|
'<iwd>/autotests' and have a mandatory prefix of 'test'.
|
|
|
|
<iwd>/autotests/test1
|
|
/test2
|
|
...
|
|
|
|
The test configurations along with test cases in <iwd>/autotests/test*
|
|
directories will be discovered and executed by test-runner in sequential
|
|
fashion. The following set of commands is sufficient to run the automated
|
|
tests shipped with IWD:
|
|
|
|
$ cd <iwd>/tools
|
|
|
|
$ sudo ./test-runner
|
|
|
|
One can specify a particular set of test configurations to be executed by using
|
|
'-A <dir1,dir2>' parameter. An absolute path is necessary for the test
|
|
configuration directories outside of <iwd>/autotests.
|
|
|
|
The command line may look as follows:
|
|
|
|
$ sudo ./test-runner -A test1,test3,/home/test4
|
|
|
|
Glob matching is also supported when specifying a test list:
|
|
|
|
$ sudo ./test-runner -A testWPA*
|
|
|
|
|
|
Creating Test Configurations
|
|
============================
|
|
|
|
A typical test configuration directory may consist of these types of files:
|
|
|
|
hw.conf Defines the network configuration and
|
|
properties of the radios.
|
|
|
|
*Test or *Test.py The set of test cases for IWD functionality
|
|
implemented using Python scripting language.
|
|
These files must have one of the two predefined
|
|
suffixes: 'test' or 'test.py'. The file name
|
|
must also be more descriptive than simply 'test'.
|
|
e.g. 'connection_test' or 'failure_test'. Files
|
|
named 'test' will not be dynamically loaded due
|
|
to python module naming overlap.
|
|
|
|
*.conf A configuration file for an instance of hostapd
|
|
(Defined in hw.conf) service.
|
|
|
|
Each configuration directory has exactly one hw.conf, where the number of
|
|
Python script files is virtually unlimited. The number of hostapd configuration
|
|
files is bounded by the limitation in mac80211_hwsim driver and is set
|
|
to 99. (The mac80211_hwsim driver allows to create 100 of simultaneous radios
|
|
and one of them is reserved by the test-runner for IWD)
|
|
|
|
A typical contents of a test configuration directory may look as follows:
|
|
|
|
/test1/hw.conf
|
|
ap1.conf
|
|
ap2.conf
|
|
networkScanTest
|
|
networkConnectTest.py
|
|
|
|
Note: Any additional files in your test directory will be copied to /tmp inside
|
|
the VM. These additional file should be referenced using /tmp/<file> inside
|
|
any configuration file for hostapd.
|
|
|
|
Defining Network
|
|
----------------
|
|
Network topology along with configuration for the automated test cases is
|
|
predetermined in hardware configuration file 'hw.conf'. In addition, it allows
|
|
to establish the relationships between the emulated hardware radios and
|
|
services that represent various entities of a wireless network.
|
|
|
|
The following sample hardware configuration file allows to emulate a network
|
|
of three nodes. Two of which are access points and the third one represents a
|
|
supplicant running IWD:
|
|
|
|
#~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ hw.conf ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
# Lines starting with # are ignored
|
|
|
|
# 'SETUP' is a manditory configuration group.
|
|
[SETUP]
|
|
#
|
|
# Total number of radios requested per network setup. This includes
|
|
# the radios used by APs as well as one for IWD. This field is mandatory and
|
|
# has a range of [1, 100].
|
|
num_radios=3
|
|
|
|
# Maximum execution interval per Python script file in seconds. This field is
|
|
# optional.
|
|
# Default: 20 seconds.
|
|
#max_test_exec_interval_sec=5
|
|
|
|
#
|
|
# The following two configuration groups are examples of the radio
|
|
# configurations.
|
|
#
|
|
# This group of settings allows to specify a set of properties for a radio. The
|
|
# name of the group represents a radio identifier. These configuration groups
|
|
# are optional.
|
|
[rad0]
|
|
|
|
# For each radX group you can specify radio properties:
|
|
# Disables the provided interface type(s):
|
|
disable_iftype=ap,p2p
|
|
|
|
# Disables the provided cipher types:
|
|
disable_cipher=ccmp,bip
|
|
|
|
# 'HOSTAPD' configuration group identifies a set of access points (AP) for the
|
|
# current network topology. Each key/value pair represents a single AP that is
|
|
# emulated by the instance of hostapd service. The key indicates an arbitrary
|
|
# radio identifier and value specifies a configuration file for the instance.
|
|
# If a radio identifier can not be mapped to a predefined radio configuration
|
|
# (identifier is not part of the 'radio_confs' list), then a radio with the
|
|
# default configuration is used. This configuration group is optional.
|
|
[HOSTAPD]
|
|
rad0=ap1.conf
|
|
rad1=ap2.conf
|
|
|
|
# 'radius_server' is a special option used to specify a hostapd instance which
|
|
# acts as a radius server only (not an access point). This option does not
|
|
# require an additional 'num_radios' to be used.
|
|
radius_server=radius.conf
|
|
#~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ end of hw.conf ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
Configuring Access Points
|
|
-------------------------
|
|
The test-runner tool makes use of the hostapd service to emulate the access
|
|
points (AP). Despite the fact that hostapd service comes preinstalled on most
|
|
Linux distributions, test-runner uses some of the recently introduced features,
|
|
which may only be available from the master tree of the hostapd repository:
|
|
|
|
git://w1.fi/srv/git/hostap.git
|
|
|
|
OR (its HTTP version)
|
|
|
|
http://w1.fi/hostap.git
|
|
|
|
commit id: 31d3692fe5d56c05753ed4a70c7943979e1d29e7 or above is required.
|
|
|
|
The sequence of commands to clone, build and install hostapd may look as
|
|
follows:
|
|
|
|
$ git clone git://w1.fi/srv/git/hostap.git
|
|
|
|
$ cd hostap/hostapd
|
|
|
|
$ cp <iwd>/doc/hostapd.config .config
|
|
|
|
Note: You may need to pre-install: 'gnutls-devel' and 'libgcrypt-devel'
|
|
libraries.
|
|
|
|
$ make install
|
|
|
|
Note: All hostapd build options (CONFIG_*) are stored in doc/hostapd.config.
|
|
Any new options which are required for a test should be added there.
|
|
|
|
Note: If 'make install' fails with the netlink warnings you may need to
|
|
install libnl-1.0pre8 (or later).
|
|
|
|
Note: It is recommended to override the pre-installed version of hostapd with
|
|
the newly built one to avoid any confusion. The simplest way to make sure
|
|
that the correct version of hostapd is used is to execute the following
|
|
command:
|
|
|
|
$ hostapd -h
|
|
|
|
Make sure that '-i' option is available in the list of option.
|
|
For more information on hostapd refer to this page:
|
|
|
|
https://wireless.wiki.kernel.org/en/users/documentation/hostapd
|
|
|
|
A full set of the hostapd configurations along with explanation can be
|
|
found at:
|
|
|
|
https://w1.fi/cgit/hostap/plain/hostapd/hostapd.conf
|
|
|
|
Note: for EAP-SIM/AKA/AKA' hostapd needs an authenticator running separately.
|
|
IWD has a python version of hostapd's "hlrauc.c". This may work out of the box
|
|
on your system, but the pycrypto library is required. This can be installed
|
|
with python pip3:
|
|
|
|
sudo pip3 install pycrypto
|
|
|
|
Running with oFono and phonesim
|
|
-------------------------------
|
|
EAP-SIM/AKA/AKA' require SIM card access to perform the authentication
|
|
algorithms. This is achieved in test runner using oFono and phonesim. If
|
|
either oFono or phonesim are not found when test runner starts, any test
|
|
involving oFono will be skipped. Using the option "sim_keys=ofono" in the
|
|
hardware config file will tell test runner that the test should use oFono.
|
|
There is some setup that needs to be done before test runner will work with
|
|
ofono/phonesim
|
|
|
|
setup ofono:
|
|
|
|
$ git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/network/ofono/ofono.git
|
|
$ cd ofono
|
|
$ ./bootstrap-configure
|
|
$ make install
|
|
|
|
setup phonesim:
|
|
|
|
$ git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/network/ofono/phonesim.git
|
|
$ cd phonesim
|
|
$ ./bootstrap-configure
|
|
$ make install
|
|
|
|
Now test runner should pick up both installed binaries.
|
|
|
|
Note: EAP-SIM/AKA/AKA' can also be tested using the hardcoded SIM plugin. This
|
|
just reads hardcoded SIM values from a local file. Tests using this plugin
|
|
should not need any additional setup. This plugin is enabled by setting
|
|
"sim_keys=<file>" in the hardware config file.
|
|
|
|
Writing Python Test Scripts
|
|
---------------------------
|
|
The test-runner tool relies on test cases written in Python script language
|
|
to exercise the functionality of IWD. The outcomes of the tests are determined
|
|
by the exit status of a process running test and reported on per Python file
|
|
bases. The test creators are highly encouraged to use the Python unit test
|
|
framework.
|
|
|
|
For more information on Python unit test framework refer to the following page:
|
|
|
|
http://pyunit.sourceforge.net/pyunit.html
|
|
|
|
Using hardware passthrough
|
|
---------------------------
|
|
|
|
The --hw, -w flag lets you pass in a config file containing USB/PCI adapter
|
|
addresses, which can then be used as radios inside the test/VM just as the
|
|
virtual mac80211_hwsim radios are used. Note: physical radios cannot be used at
|
|
the same time as mac80211_hwsim radios.
|
|
|
|
Using this option, in some cases, does require some pre-configuration that won't
|
|
be described in this document. Specifically, PCI adapters are very involved to
|
|
get setup, and require special kernel boot options (on the host), BIOS changes,
|
|
and most likely a lot of time to get the system working reliably. Because of
|
|
this only USB adapters will be discussed in this document.
|
|
|
|
If PCI passthrough is something you need, it would be best to follow this guide:
|
|
|
|
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/PCI_passthrough_via_OVMF
|
|
|
|
First, whatever kernel you are using must contain the adapters driver and, if
|
|
required, firmware built in. The driver can be built in using 'make menuconfig'
|
|
and finding the correct driver for your adapter:
|
|
|
|
Device Driver -> Network Device Support -> Wireless LAN
|
|
|
|
Enable [*] the driver(s) you need, save, and exit.
|
|
|
|
The firmware also needs to be built in, and this will require you finding the
|
|
right firmware file (/lib/firmware/) required for your adapter and adding it to
|
|
CONFIG_EXTRA_FIRMWARE in your .config file. It is sometimes not very obvious
|
|
what firmware you need. I have found that during the kernel boot some adapters
|
|
will print out if the firmware was not found, and the name of the firmware file
|
|
they expect. If you are having trouble finding the firmware file try continuing
|
|
on and see what happens when test-runner starts. Google is also your friend.
|
|
|
|
Once you have the kernel built you can write your hardware config file for
|
|
test-runner. Find the USB bus and device for the adapter:
|
|
|
|
$ lsusb
|
|
|
|
You should see your device listed with a 'Bus' and 'Device' number:
|
|
|
|
$ Bus 001 Device 002: ........
|
|
|
|
Put these into your passthrough config file under a 'USBAdapters' group:
|
|
|
|
[USBAdapters]
|
|
rad0=1,2
|
|
|
|
Note: The 'rad#' does not matter at this time. These named keys will not
|
|
correspond to rad0, rad1, etc in your test config file. This may change in the
|
|
future.
|
|
|
|
You can then run test-runner using this config file:
|
|
|
|
./test-runner -k <kernel> --hw passthrough.conf ...
|
|
|
|
If running specific tests you need to ensure you have enough adapters defined
|
|
in the config file, and that the adapters support the features you expect. For
|
|
example, some adapters cannot go into AP mode, or use certain channels. If your
|
|
test expects these features and the adapters do not support them, the test will
|
|
fail in sometimes unexpected ways.
|
|
|
|
Using the 'shell' feature
|
|
---------------------------
|
|
|
|
The --shell,-s flag allows you to boot into a shell inside the test-runner VM.
|
|
If this flag is used the python test will not actually run, only the environment
|
|
will be setup. Tis is useful for diagnosing issues with a particular test
|
|
quickly without having to modify the python test and restart the VM. The shell
|
|
flag is meant to be used in conjunction with --autotest,-A. If no specific test
|
|
is specified test-runner will default to the 'shell' test, which is just an
|
|
empty test with one adapter.
|
|
|
|
Using the shell with real hardware (--hw flag) is even more powerful. If your
|
|
system is setup for USB/PCI passthrough you can expose physical network cards
|
|
in the VM and use them in the shell sandbox. This allows you to try out
|
|
different kernels in the VM very quickly (no reboots/swapping out kernels on
|
|
the host system).
|
|
|
|
Here are some examples of --shell usage:
|
|
|
|
Setup environment for 'testWPA' and boot into shell:
|
|
./test-runner -k <kernel> -A testWPA --shell
|
|
|
|
Boot directly into 'shell' test (sandbox):
|
|
./test-runner -k <kernel> --shell
|
|
|
|
Use hardware passthrough:
|
|
./test-runner -k <kernel> --hw <hw.conf> --shell
|
