Subject: [PATCH net-next v2 2/2] selftests/net: cover odd-sized local port ranges with one free port
Date: Fri,  6 Nov 2026 19:14:42 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261106171442.31811-3-baditaflorin@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261106171442.31811-1-baditaflorin@gmail.com>

Leave each port in three- and five-port socket-local ranges as the only
available candidate and verify that bind(..., 0) can allocate it. Cover
both lower-bound parities and repeat allocation to vary the random
starting offset. Use the existing IPv4/IPv6 TCP, UDP, SCTP and MPTCP
fixture variants.

This catches the false EADDRINUSE caused by rounding an odd-sized range
down during TCP port allocation. Without the preceding fix, the TCP
and MPTCP variants fail on both IP versions when the last port in a
three-port range is the only free one. With the fix, all eight variants
pass.

Allow the loopback bind helper to take a port so the test can hold
explicit binds on every other candidate. Retain the existing helper for
automatic binding and run under the existing isolated-network-namespace
wrapper.

The regression test was developed with Codex assistance and exercised
on booted x86-64 KVM kernels before and after the fix.
