Willem de Bruijn 18346db185 selftests/net: toeplitz: fix race on tpacket_v3 block close
[ Upstream commit 903848249a781d76d59561d51676c95b3a4d7162 ]

Avoid race between process wakeup and tpacket_v3 block timeout.

The test waits for cfg_timeout_msec for packets to arrive. Packets
arrive in tpacket_v3 rings, which pass packets ("frames") to the
process in batches ("blocks"). The sk waits for req3.tp_retire_blk_tov
msec to release a block.

Set the block timeout lower than the process waiting time, else
the process may find that no block has been released by the time it
scans the socket list. Convert to a ring of more than one, smaller,
blocks with shorter timeouts. Blocks must be page aligned, so >= 64KB.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
