[PATCH net-next v4 0/8] selftest: Extend tun/virtio coverage for GSO over UDP tunnel
From: Xu Du
Date: Mon Jan 05 2026 - 20:35:43 EST
The primary goal is to add test validation for GSO when operating over
UDP tunnels, a scenario which is not currently covered.
The design strategy is to extend the existing tun/tap testing infrastructure
to support this new use-case, rather than introducing a new or parallel framework.
This allows for better integration and re-use of existing test logic.

v3 -> v4:
- Rebase onto the latest net-next tree to resolve merge conflicts.
v3: https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/cover.1767580224.git.xudu@xxxxxxxxxx/
- Re-send the patch series becasue Patchwork don't update them.
v2: https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/cover.1767074545.git.xudu@xxxxxxxxxx/
- Addresse sporadic failures due to too early send.
- Refactor environment address assign helper function.
- Fix incorrect argument passing in build packet functions.
