netlink: add unit tests for IPVS service, destination, and statistics decoding - #48
Merged
Merged
Conversation
Add table-driven tests for assembleService and assembleDestination, covering IPv4 and IPv6 addresses and their corresponding netlink attributes. Verify decoding of service persistence engine names, destination weights larger than 16 bits, and persistent connection counts. Also verify that attribute ordering does not affect decoding and that unknown attributes are ignored for forward compatibility. These tests exercise the decoding functions directly, without requiring network namespaces or elevated privileges. Signed-off-by: Sebastiaan van Stijn <github@gone.nl>

Add table-driven tests for assembleStats, covering all supported statistics attributes, including 32-bit counters and 64-bit byte counts. Verify that unknown attributes are ignored without interrupting decoding, and that malformed netlink attributes return an error. These tests exercise the decoder without requiring network namespaces or elevated privileges, and provide baseline coverage for future STATS64 support.
