tests fail when run in chroot (during package building) #40

dvzrv · 2018-02-13T18:20:08Z

Helloes!
I'm currently pushing python-ethtool to Arch Linux's [community].
On Arch, packages are built in a clean chroot (to ensure package and dependency integrity). There however, the tests fail:

Within the chroot, the user, that's building the package is not allowed root privileges. This might lead to the tests failing, but maybe you can provide some more insight?
I'd like to be able to use the tests during packaging for python{2,3}.

The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:

Hello.

Thank you for filling this issue. In points:

I'll fix the errored test. This test may fail due to insufficient privileges.
The second one is caused by the same problem as the first one but the fix won't be simple here.
The last three tests are failing because there are differences between device info obtained by ethtool and device info obtained by ifconfig. Could you please send us an output of ifconfig and ip a commands executed in chroot?

Have a nice day.

Now it is obvious where the problem comes from. ifconfig is deprecated and it cannot show more than one IPv4 address. There is one way how to do it but it requires that each secondary IPv4 address has to have a label (known as subinterface) associated. For example enp0s25:0. But we cannot change setting of your environment.

In the test suite, ifconfig is used as a secondary source for info about network interfaces because we have to have something we can compare results from ethtool with.

The solution here is obvious. We can implement Python wrapper for ip command which is not obsolete and which can provide all necessary information about network interfaces with all new kernel features. But honestly, I don't think that it worth. We became maintainers of python-ethtool to make it Python 3 compatible and I don't think that we have enough time to make that big change and implement new stuff.

@hroncok @Sanqui What do you think guys?

I'll try to find some way to fix all your issues.

Adding new features to python-ethtool is very unlikely.

Partially fixes fedora-python#40

Hello. I've implemented a fix for first two issues. Tests now expecting being run without root privileges. Take a look or try it if you want.

I'll take a look also at the last problem. We don't have time to implement ip wrapper but we might find another solution.
