Comtrol eCos - Manual (Page 499)

Chapter 36. Tests and Demonstrations
Loopback tests
By default, only tests which can execute on any target will be built. These therefore do not actually use external
network interfaces (though they may configure and initialize them) but are limited to testing via the loopback
interface.
ping_lo_test - ping test of the loopback address
tcp_lo_select - simple test of select with TCP via loopback
tcp_lo_test - trivial TCP test via loopback
udp_lo_test - trivial UDP test via loopback
multi_lo_select - test of multiple select() calls simultaneously
Building the Network Tests
To build further network tests, ensure that the configuration option CYGPKG_NET_BUILD_TESTS is set in your
build and then make the tests in the usual way. Alternatively (with that option set) use
make -C net/common/VERSION / tests
after building the eCos library, if you wish to build only the network tests.
This should give test executables in install/tests/net/common/VERSION /tests including the following:
socket_test - trivial test of socket creation API
mbuf_test - trivial test of mbuf allocation API
ftp_test - simple FTP test, connects to “server”
ping_test - pings “server” and non-existent host to test timeout
dhcp_test - ping test, but also relinquishes and
reacquires DHCP leases periodically
flood - a flood ping test; use with care
tcp_echo - data forwarding program for performance test
nc_test_master - network characterization master
nc_test_slave - network characterization slave
server_test - a very simple server example
tftp_client_test - performs a tftp get and put from/to “server”
tftp_server_test - runs a tftp server for a short while
set_mac_address - set MAC address(es) of interfaces in NVRAM
bridge - contributed network bridge code
nc6_test_master - IPv4/IPv6 network characterization master
nc6_test_slave - IPv4/IPv6 network characterization slave
ga_server_test - a very simple IPv4/IPv6 server example
