From f802352d41e377f3e68614202c8e9cef5ce862f2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ben Pfaff Date: Tue, 28 Feb 2012 14:57:13 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] timeval: Add "time/stop" unixctl command, for use in unit tests. Although we try to avoid it, some unit tests are necessarily timing-sensitive. The new "time/stop" command that this commit adds should help with that, by preventing time from advancing from the viewpoint of the OVS "timeval" functions except when "time/warp" explicitly advances the current time. This should allow the unit tests that need it to become reproducible regardless of the speed at which the tests run. This commit adds one unit of "time/stop" to the unit test suite, in the one timing-sensitive test of which I am currently aware. Bug #9782.
