The iproute2 output that eventually landed upstream is different than
the one used in this test, resulting in failures. Fix by adjusting the
test to use iproute2's JSON output, which is more stable than regular
output.

The userspace can also expect a smaller size if it is compiled with old

So for these sizes, we can only check if they are above a certain

The srv6_end_dt4_l3vpn_test instantiates a virtual network consisting of
several routers (rt-1, rt-2) and hosts.
When the IPv6 addresses of rt-{1,2} routers are configured, the Deduplicate
Address Detection (DAD) kicks in when enabled in the Linux distros running
the selftests. DAD is used to check whether an IPv6 address is already
assigned in a network. Such a mechanism consists of sending an ICMPv6 Echo
Request and waiting for a reply.
As the DAD process could take too long to complete, it may cause the
failing of some tests carried out by the srv6_end_dt4_l3vpn_test script.
To make the srv6_end_dt4_l3vpn_test more robust, we disable DAD on routers
since we configure the virtual network manually and do not need any address
deduplication mechanism at all.

The MAC Merge layer (IEEE 802.3-2018 clause 99) does all the heavy
lifting for Frame Preemption (IEEE 802.1Q-2018 clause 6.7.2), a TSN
feature for minimizing latency.
Preemptible traffic is different on the wire from normal traffic in
incompatible ways. If we send a preemptible packet and the link partner
doesn't support preemption, it will drop it as an error frame and we
will never know. The MAC Merge layer has a control plane of its own,
which can be manipulated (using ethtool) in order to negotiate this
capability with the link partner (through LLDP).
Actually the TLV format for LLDP solves this problem only partly,
because both partners only advertise:
- if they support preemption (RX and TX)
- if they have enabled preemption (TX)
so we cannot tell the link partner what to do - we cannot force it to
enable reception of our preemptible packets.
That is fully solved by the verification feature, where the local device
generates some small probe frames which look like preemptible frames
with no useful content, and the link partner is obliged to respond to
them if it supports the standard. If the verification times out, we know
that preemption isn't active in our TX direction on the link.
Having clarified the definition, this selftest exercises the manual
(ethtool) configuration path of 2 link partners (with and without
verification), and the LLDP code path, using the openlldp project.
The test also verifies the TX activity of the MAC Merge layer by
sending traffic through a traffic class configured as preemptible
(using mqprio). There isn't a good way to make this really portable
(user space cannot find out how many traffic classes there are for
a device), but I chose num_tc 4 here, that should work reasonably well.
I also know that some devices (stmmac) only permit TXQ0 to be
preemptible, so this is why PREEMPTIBLE_PRIO was strategically chosen
as 0. Even if other hardware is more configurable, this test should
cover the baseline.
This is not really a "forwarding" selftest, but I put it near the other
"ethtool" selftests.
