Subject: selftests: net: py: Add rand_ports helper method
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=b0249c0d41b306ddd79de58ca7fea543ab5e7a2e;p=thirdparty%2Flinux.git

selftests: net: py: Add rand_ports helper method

Certain tests need a unique set of ports. Successive calls to the
existing rand_port method may return a duplicate port, resulting in test
flakiness. The new helper keeps sockets open while building a list of
ephemeral ports, thus the kernel enforces their uniqueness.
