`mcast6.py` is used by GitHub Actions CI to send or receive UDP
messages in multicast groups.
This commit adds a `-u` argument to allow `mcast6.py` to receive UDP
messages without joining a multicast group.
The vicarious router discovery feature depends on the ability to
receive Router Advertisement messages sent in response to Router
Solicitation messages from other hosts. However, this does not work
since Router Advertisement messages are often sent unicast in
response.
This commit enhances routing-manager to avoid using deprecated
(i.e. P_preferred=false) OMR prefixes as the winning OMR prefix, but
still sends RA RIO for the deprecating OMR prefixes.
Cert_5_5_05_SplitMergeREED.py was intermittently failing to find an
MLE Advertisement that had a Route TLV with 15 entries. However, the
test topology has 16 routers in steady state. Update packet filter to
look for 16 routers.
This commit adds some wait time before connectivity
validation to mitigate the impact of #7660 which
introduces some random delay before publishing
external route into network data.
This commit increases the wait time in `nat64_multi_border_routers`
test to accommodate for the fact that prefixes are added and removed
using `NetworkData::Publisher` which can add additional initial
random wait time (before adding the prefix into network data).
Deriving the Mesh Local Prefix from the Extended PAN ID was carried
forward from legacy implementations. Removing this coupling to conform
to the existing Thread Specification.
This commit updates the auto-start behavior in `Srp::Client` which
monitors the Thread Network Data entries to discover and select SRP
sever to register with. There are three types of entries in Network
Data and are selected in the order below:
1) Preferred unicast entries with address in service data,
2) Anycast entries (each having a seq number,
3) Unicast entries with address info included in server data.
This commit also defines `AutoStart` class which includes all the
state and data variables related to auto-start feature. It also
updates `test_srp_auto_start_mode` test to cover the newly added
behaviors.
There is no command that can generate different sizes of Spinel frames
for testing the SPI/UART interface. This commit adds a diag command
`diag rcp echo` to RCP for testing SPI/UART interface.
This commit updates `test_srp_name_conflicts.py` to cover the
situation where different clients try to register services with the
same service instance label but under different services.
This commit updates `Cert_9_2_17_Orphan` packet verification to check
that the two leaders are sending MLE advertisement before checking
for child attach (Child ID response). The current test checked this
after the child attach but leader 1 is turned off 5 seconds after
the child is attached which may not be enough time to ensure rx
of an advertisement (which every 30 seconds on average).
The test failed when verifying that HOST sends a ping packet to BR
while the destination is a link local address. That requires adding a
route on HOST before the ping. In this specific step, HOST added a
route to link local prefix going to BR. However, HOST failed to send
the echo request to BR using this newly added route. Since the impact
of disabling this step is small, I'll skip this step as for now and
look for a long term fix in the future.
Current `Routing Manager` implementation will try to send the failed
RS messages in 60 seconds. RS failures happen often when the infra
interface is re-enabled which is the case of rebooting, and it could
not be acceptable for the border router to take 1 minute to recover
the IPv6 connectivity after reboot.
To resolve this issue, this commit changes the delay to
`kRtrSolicitationInterval` (4 seconds) which is the interval between
two successful RS messages.
This commit adds a new mechanism in `Dns::Client` along with a new
public OT API `otDnsClientResolveIp4Address()` and its related CLI
sub-command to allow a user to request an address resolution DNS
query specifically for A records or IPv4 addresses for a given host
name.
This API requires `OPENTHREAD_CONFIG_DNS_CLIENT_NAT64_ENABLE` to be
enabled. Upon receiving a successful query response the addresses are
reported to user (in callback) as NAT64 IPv6 translated version of
the IPv4 addresses from the received query response.
The new API is added in addition to the existing behavior where address
resolution query from `otDnsClientResolveAddress()` first queries for
IPv6 addresses and only if no IPv6 address is found and NAT64 is
enabled and allowed by the query config, `Dns::Client` implementation
tries to perform an IPv4 query. The new API directly starts with IPv4
query and can be useful in situations where Thread devices are
connected through BRs to a network without global IPv6 connectivity.
I just found that we don't have a test case covers the scenario of
DNS-SD when there are multiple BRs. Specially, one of the BRs starts
with no mDNS cache.
There was a time that our mDNS publisher answered the queries
correctly, even when there was a bug in mDNS publisher that it
cancelled resolving/browsing too early (was fixed in
https://github.com/openthread/ot-br-posix/pull/1120). That bug was
hidden because mDNS cache already contained the needed information.
This commit implements new logging model in OpenThread. Each core
module can specify its own module name using `RegisterLogModule()`.
The registered log module name is then included in the all the log
messages emitted from the specific file. This model replaces and
enhances the log region model.
This commit adds tests for NAT64 prefix
advertisement. BORDER_ROUTING_NAT64 is set to 1 to enable the feature
in tests.
It also adjusted some util functions for prefixes and routes in
netdata.
Testing outbound connectivity to IPv4 hosts is not covered yet. It
will be added after we update OTBR.
- Adds platform API `trelDnssdInitialize` to initialize TREL
DNS-SD module.
- Adds `test_trel_connectivity.py` test.
- Fixed `Border Router` TREL test to really use TREL.
This commit fixex the wrong commissioner mgmt cli args which uses
"binary" to indicate following binary args in HEX string - the format
has been changed to "-x" in #5549.
The reason why cli-commissioner.exp doesn't fail consistently is not
fixed by this commit.
MATN test cases often takes long time. We'd better move them to a
separate job so that we don't have to rerun MATN cases every time a
border router test fails.
This commit caches Border Router test results so that success BR tests
will be skipped when re-running the workflow.
The cache keys are chosen in a way that:
- Each new PR push will trigger cache miss and run the tests
- Each ot-br-posix change will trigger cache miss and run the tests
This commit introduces a number of enhancements to `thread-cert`
Border Router tests to improve reliability:
- Checks `ot-rcp` process status for OTBR tests to help catch errors
earlier
- Make sure `ot-rcp` processes are terminated after one test to avoid
corrupting subsequent tests
- Upload core dump as artifacts if otbr-agent crashed
