== Nightly Test Tesults ==


Libreswan comes with an extensive test suite, written mostly in python, that uses KVM virtual machines and virtual networks. It has replaced the old UML test suite.
Libreswan's testsuite is run nightly.  The results are published [https://testing.libreswan.org/ here], with the most recent result [https://testing.libreswan.org/current here]. The tests are categorized as:
Apart from KVM, the test suite uses libvirtd and qemu. It is strongly recommended to run the test suite natively on the OS (not in a VM itself) on a machine that has a CPU wth virtualization instructions.
The PLAN9 filesystem (9p) is used to mount host directories in the guests - NFS is avoided to prevent network lockups when an IPsec test case would cripple the guest's networking.


{{ ambox | nocat=true | type=important | text = libvirt 0.9.11 and qemu 1.0 or better are required. RHEL does not support a writable 9p filesystem, so the recommended host/guest OS is Fedora 20 }}
* good: these tests are expected to pass (unfortunately, some still have timing problems and occasionally fail)
* wip: these tests require further work, for instance the result may not be deterministic, or the bug they demonstrate hasn't yet been fixed
* skiptest: these tests require manual intervention to run

To run tests locally, read on.
 
== Preparing the host machine ==
 
Nothing apart from the system services requires root access. However, it does require that the user you are using is allowed to run various commands as root via sudo. Additionally, libvirt assumes the VMs are running under the qemu uid, but because we want to share files using the 9p filesystem between host and guests, we want the VMs to run under our own uid. The easiest solution to accomplish all of these is to add your user (for example the username "build") to the kvm, qemu and wheel groups. These are the changed lines from /etc/groups:
 
<pre>
wheel:x:10:root,build
kvm:x:36:root,qemu,build
qemu:x:107:root,qemu,build
</pre>
 
Commands to effect this:
<pre>
sudo usermod -G wheel,kvm,qemu root
sudo usermod -G wheel,kvm,qemu build
sudo usermod -G kvm,qemu qemu
</pre>
 
And the file /etc/sudoers would have a line:
 
<pre>
%wheel ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL
</pre>
 
You might need to relogin for all group changes to take effect.
 
Now we are ready to install the various components of libvirtd, qemu and kvm and then start the libvirtd service.
 
<pre>
sudo yum install virt-manager virt-install qemu-system-x86 libvirt-daemon-driver-qemu qemu \
                qemu-kvm libvirt-daemon-qemu qemu-img qemu-user libvirt-daemon-qemu libvirt-python racoon strongswan
sudo systemctl enable libvirtd.service
sudo systemctl start  libvirtd.service
</pre>
 
{{ ambox | nocat=true | type=important | text = Because our VMs don't run as qemu, /var/lib/libvirt/qemu needs to be changed using chmod to make it writable for the qemu group. This needs to be repeated if the libvirtd package is updated on the system }}


{{ ambox | nocat=true | type=important | text = do not install strongswan-libipsec because you won't be able to run non-NAT strongswan tests! }}
== Running tests ==


Various tools are used or convenient to have when running tests:
The libreswan tests, in testing/pluto, can be run using several different mechanisms:

tcpdump permissions
== How tests work ==
<pre>
groupadd tcpdump
grep tcpdump /etc/group*
#add build to group tcpdump
vim /etc/group
ls -lt /sbin/tcpdump
chown root.tcpdump /sbin/tcpdump
setcap "CAP_NET_RAW+eip" /sbin/tcpdump


grep tcpdump /etc/group*
All the test cases involving VMs are located in the libreswan directory under <tt>testing/pluto/</tt>. The most basic test case is called basic-pluto-01. Each test case consists of a few files:
#/etc/group:tcpdump:x:72:build
#/etc/group-:tcpdump:x:72:
 
#when the installtion is complete the following should work
tcpdump -i swan12
</pre>
 
The libreswan source tree includes all the components that are used on the host and inside the test VMs. To get the latest source code using git:
 
<pre>
git clone https://github.com/libreswan/libreswan
cd libreswan
</pre>
 
== Creating the VMs ==
 
A configuration file called kvmsetup.sh is used to configure a few parameters for the test suite:
 
<pre>
cp kvmsetup.sh.sample kvmsetup.sh
</pre>
 
This file contains various environment variables used for creating and running the tests. In the example version, the KVMPREFIX= is set to the home directory of the user "build". The POOLSPACE= is where all the VM images will be stored. There should be at least 16GB of free disk space in the pool/ directory. You can change the OSTYPE= if you prefer to use ubuntu guests over fedora guests. We recommend that the host and guest run the same OS - it makes things like running gdb on the host for core dumps created in the guests much easier. The OSMEDIA= can be changed to point to a local distribution mirror.
 
If you wish to be able to ssh into all the VMs created without using a password, add your ssh public key to '''testing/baseconfigs/all/etc/ssh/authorized_keys'''. This file is installed as /root/.ssh/authorized_keys on all VMs
 
Once the kvmsetup.sh file has been edited, we can create the VMs:
 
<pre>
sh testing/libvirt/install.sh
</pre>
 
First, a new VM is added to the system called "fedorabase" (or "ubuntubase"). This is an automated minimal install using kickstart. In the "post install" phase of the anaconda installer, this VM runs a "yum update" to ensure we have the latest versions of all packages. In that %post phase we also install various packages that we need to run the tests. This can result in the installer spending a very long time in the "post install" phase. During this time, the VM displays no progress bar. Just be patient.
 
Once the VM is fully installed, the disk image is converted to QCOW and copied for each test VM, west, east, north, road and nic. A few virtual networks are created to hook up the VMs in isolation. These virtual networks have names like "192_1_2_0" and use bridge interfaces names like "swan12". Finally, the actual VMs are added to the system's libvirt/KVM system and the "fedorabase" VM is deleted.
 
Since you will be using ssh a lot to login to these machines, it is recommended to put their names in /etc/hosts:
 
<pre>
# /etc/hosts entries for libreswan test suite
192.1.2.45 west
192.1.2.23 east
192.0.3.254 north
192.1.3.209 road
192.1.2.254 nic
</pre>
 
== Logging into the VMs ==
 
You can login to the VMs in three different ways:
 
* using ssh (with the above names in /etc/hosts)
* using sudo virsh console <name>
* using virt-manager on the "graphics console"
 
Using ssh becomes easier if you are running ssh-agent (you probably are) and your public key is known to the virtual machine.  This command, run on the host, installs your public key on the root account of the guest machines west.  This assumes that west is up (it might not be, but you can put this off until you actually need ssh, at which time the machine would need to be up anyway).  Remember that the root password on each guest machine is "swan".
<pre>
ssh-copy-id root@west
</pre>
You can use ssh-copy for any VM.  Unfortunately, the key is forgotten when the VM is restarted.
 
== Preparing the VMs ==
 
The VMs came pre-installed with everything, except libreswan. We do not want to use the OS libreswan package because we want to run our own version to test our code changes. Some of the test cases use the NETKEY/XFRM IPsec stack but most test cases use the KLIPS IPsec stack. Login to the first VM and compile and install the libreswan userland and KLIPS ipsec kernel module:
 
<pre>
[build@host:~/libreswan $ sudo virsh start west
[build@host:~/libreswan $ ssh root@west swan-update
</pre>
 
swan-update first builds libreswan and then installs libreswan. For the other VMs (except "nic" which never runs IPsec)  we only need to install, as libreswan is already built in the first VM.
<pre>
[build@host:~/libreswan $ for vm in east north road; do sudo virsh start $vm; done
(wait for machines to boot)
[build@host:~/libreswan $ for vm in east north road; do ssh root@$vm swan-install; done
</pre>
 
All VMs are now fully provisioned to run test cases.
 
{{ ambox | nocat=true | type=important | text = The directories /source and /testing inside any VM are automatically mounted from the host's libreswan directory. Do not move the libreswan or the pool space directory on the host }}
 
== Running a test case ==
 
All the test cases involving VMs are located in the libreswan directory under testing/pluto/ . The most basic test case is called basic-pluto-01. Each test case consists of a few files:


* description.txt to explain what this test case actually tests
* description.txt to explain what this test case actually tests
Line 156: Line 64:
* testparams.sh if there are any non-default test parameters
* testparams.sh if there are any non-default test parameters


 
Once the test run has completed, you will see an OUTPUT/ directory in the test case directory:
You can run this test case by issuing the following command on the host:
 
<pre>
cd testing/pluto/basic-pluto-01/
../../utils/dotest.py
</pre>
 
Once the testrun has completed, you will see an OUTPUT/ directory in the test case directory:


<pre>
<pre>
Line 180: Line 80:
* Any core dumps generated if a pluto daemon crashed
* Any core dumps generated if a pluto daemon crashed


== Diagnosing inside the VM ==
; testing/baseconfigs/
:  configuration files installed on guest machines
; testing/guestbin/
:  shell scripts used by tests, and run on the guest
; testing/linux-system-roles.vpn/
:  ???
; testing/packaging/
:  ???
; testing/pluto/TESTLIST
:  list of tests, and their expected outcome
; testing/pluto/*/
:  individual test directories
; testing/programs/
:  executables used by tests, and run on the guest
; testing/sanitizers/
:  filters for cleaning up the test output
; testing/utils/
:  test drivers and other host tools
; testing/x509/
:  certificates, scripts are run on a guest


Once a test run has completed, the VMs shut down the ipsec subsystem. You can use ssh to login as root on any host (password "swan") and rerun the testcase manually. This gives you a chance to repeat a crasher while using gdb.  You need three terminals to do this.

<pre>
** the exceptions are the Linux test domains: EAST, WEST, ROAD, NORTH; should they?

** NIC needs to run DHCP on eth0 manually; how?
sh ./westinit.sh
** transmogrify does not try to modify interface-0(SWANDEFAULT) (doing so would break established network sessions such as NFS)
</pre>

=== terminal 3: gdb ===
== Problems with the existing Network ==
This assumes that initialization worked and pluto hasn't yet crashed.
Pick the side you wish to gdb, ssh in, and start gdb
<pre>
ssh root@eastORwest
gdb -p `pidof pluto`
gdb> cont
</pre>
If pluto wasn't running, gdb would complain: ''<code>--p requires an argument</code>''


When pluto crashes, gdb will show that and await commands.  For example, the bt command will show a backtrace.
The current network has a number of limitations.  This section identifies those problems and proposes changes to address them:


=== terminal 1: start the test ===
* the gateway had only 128 DHCP addresses
<pre>
* public networks are being used: 192.0.1.0/24 is owned by elevatedcomputing.com; 192.1.2.0/24 is owned by raytheon.com; 192.1.3.0/24 is owned by raytheon.com
sh ./westrun.sh
* 192.168.234.0/24 (gateway) is reserved for private use networks and known to clash with toronto airport
</pre>
* using public interfaces means that they can't be used in documentation
 
* can't test two hosts where each is behind a gateway VPN
== Diagnosing inside the VM (alternative version) ==
Once a testrun has completed, the VMs shut down the ipsec subsystem. You can use ssh to login as root on any host (password "swan") and rerun the testcase manually. This gives you a chance to repeat a crasher while using gdb:
<pre>
ssh root@east
ipsec setup start
pidof pluto
cd /source/OBJ*
gdb programs/pluto/pluto
gdb> attach <pid>
gdb> cont
</pre>
 
In another window, prepare west:
 
<pre>
ssh root@west
cd /testing/pluto/basic-pluto-01
sh ./westinit.sh
</pre>


In still another window, you can login to east and re-trigger the failure. You can either use the root command history using the arrow keys to start ipsec and load the right connection, or you can re-run the "eastinit.sh" file:
see
Ref https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc5737 https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc3849 https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc6890


<pre>
The suggestion is:
ssh root@east
* use the benchmarking network 198.18.0.0/15
cd /testing/pluto/basic-pluto-01
* reserve 198.19/16 for the gateway
sh ./eastinit.sh
* revive [sun]RISE (behind EAST) and [sun]SET (behind WEST)
</pre>
* reserve a number N for each machine / network: EAST: 23; WEST: 45; RISE: 123; SET: 145; NORTH: 33; NIC: 254
* use 198.18.2N.N/24 for IPsec Interfaces
* use 192.18.1N.1N/24 for RISE and SET

In the west window, you can either continue with running "westrun.sh" or you can look at westrun.sh and issue the commands manually.
The changes are as follows:


== Running all test cases ==
=== Hand Sketch of Current Network ===


To run all test cases, you need to be able to compile libreswan on the host (not for any good reason, but "make check" runs "make programs" first). You might need to install some build requirements:
[[File:networksketch.png]]


<pre>
=== Original Network Diagram ===
sudo yum install flex bison gmp-devel nss-devel nspr-devel openldap-devel curl-devel pam-devel unbound-devel fipscheck-devel libcap-ng-devel
</pre>


To run all test cases (which include compiling and installing it on all vms, and non-VM based test cases), run:
[[File:testnet.png]]
 
<pre>
make check UPDATE=1
</pre>
 
== Updating the VMs ==
 
Sometimes you want to update a VM's system or add a package to assist with debugging. This requires an internet connection. While the VMs are completely isolated, the "nic" VM can be configured to give internet access to the machines:
 
 
<pre>
ssh root@nic
ifup eth3
iptables -I POSTROUTING -t nat -o eth3 -j MASQUERADE
route add default gw 192.168.234.1  # may be needed
exit
</pre>
 
On the other VMs, change the nameserver entry in /etc/resolv.conf to point to a valid resolver (eg 8.8.8.8 or 193.110.157.123) and the VM will have full internet connectivity.
 
{{ ambox | nocat=true | type=important | text = Do not enable eth3 on "nic" per default, as it will affect the actual test cases that are run. }}
 
== The /testing/guestbin directory ==
 
The guestbin directory contains scripts that are used within the VMs only.
 
=== swan-transmogrify ===
 
When the VMs were installed, an XML configuration file from testing/libvirt/vm/ was used to configure each VM with the right disks, mounts and nic cards. Each VM mounts the libreswan directory as /source and the libreswan/testing/ directory as /testing . This makes the /testing/guestbin/ directory available on the VMs. At boot, the VMs run /testing/guestbin/swan-transmogrify. This python script compares the nic of eth0 with the list of known MAC addresses from the XML files. By identifying the MAC, it knows which identity (west, east, etc) it should take on. Files are copied from /testing/baseconfigs/ into the VM's /etc directory and the network service is restarted.
 
=== swan-build, swans-install, swan-update ===
 
These commands are used to build, install or build+install (update) the libreswan userland and kernel code
 
=== swan-prep ===
 
This command is run as the first command of each test case to setup the host. It copies the required files from /testing/baseconfigs/ and the specific test case files onto the VM test machine. It does not start libreswan. That is done in the "init.sh" script.
 
The swan-prep command takes two options.
The --x509 option is required to copy in all the required certificates and update the NSS database.
The --46 /--6 option is used to give the host IPv4 and/or IPv6 connectivity. Hosts per default only get IPv4 connectivity as this reduces the noise captured with tcpdump
 
=== fipson and fipsoff ===
 
These are used to fake a kernel into FIPS mode, which is required for some of the tests.
 
 
== Various notes ==
 
* Currently, only one test can run at a time.
* You can peek at the guests using virt-manager or you can ssh into the test machines from the host.
* ssh may be slow to prompt for the password.  If so, start up the vm "nic"
* On VMs use only once CPU core. Multiple CPUs may cause pexpect to mangle output.
* 2014 Mar: DHR needed to do the following to make things work each time he rebooted the host
<pre>
$ sudo setenforce Permissive
$ ls -ld /var/lib/libvirt/qemu
drwxr-x---. 6 qemu qemu 4096 Mar 14 01:23 /var/lib/libvirt/qemu
$ sudo chmod g+w /var/lib/libvirt/qemu
$ ( cd testing/libvirt/net ; for i in * ; do sudo virsh net-start $i ; done ; )
</pre>
 
== To improve ==
* swan-build and swan-install does not stop on compile/install error and signel it to dotest.py
* install and remove RPM using dotest.py + make rpm support
* add summarizing script that generate html/json to git repo
* coreump . It has been a mystery :) systemd or some daemon appears to block coredump on the Fedora 20 systems.
 
=== Sanitizers ===
* summarize output from tcpdump
* count established IKE, ESP , AH states
* dpd ping sanitizer. DPD tests have unpredictable packet loss for ping.
* look into pluto-testlist-scan.sh.dumb-cert-fragment

Nightly Test Tesults

Libreswan's testsuite is run nightly. The results are published here, with the most recent result here. The tests are categorized as:

  • good: these tests are expected to pass (unfortunately, some still have timing problems and occasionally fail)
  • wip: these tests require further work, for instance the result may not be deterministic, or the bug they demonstrate hasn't yet been fixed
  • skiptest: these tests require manual intervention to run

To run tests locally, read on.

Running tests

The libreswan tests, in testing/pluto, can be run using several different mechanisms:

Test Frameworks
Framework Speed Host OS Guest OS initsystem testing (systemd, rc.d, ...) Post-mortem Interop testing Notes
KVM slower Fedora, Debian
(BSD anyone?) 		Alpine, Fedora, FreeBSD, NetBSD, OpenBSD, Debian yes shutdown, core, leaks, refcnt, selinux strongswan (Linux, FreeBSD), iked (OpenBSD), racoon (NetBSD), racoon2 (NetBSD) gold standard
ideal for BSD builds
idea for testing custom kernels
used by the Testing machine
requires 9p (virtio anyone?)
Namespaces fast linux uses host's libreswan, kernel, and utilities no core, leaks strongswan (linux)? ideal for quick tests
requires libreswan to be built/installed on the host
requires all dependencies to be installed on the host
test results sensitive differing kernel and utilities
Docker linux uses host's kernel
uses distro's utilities 		? ? ? ideal for cross-linux builds (CentOS 6, 7, 8, Fedora 28 - rawhide, Debian, Ubuntu)
sensitive to differing kernel and utilities

How tests work

All the test cases involving VMs are located in the libreswan directory under testing/pluto/. The most basic test case is called basic-pluto-01. Each test case consists of a few files:

  • description.txt to explain what this test case actually tests
  • ipsec.conf files - for host west is called west.conf. This can also include configuration files for strongswan or racoon2 for interop testig
  • ipsec.secret files - if non-default configurations are used. also uses the host syntax, eg west.secrets, east.secrets.
  • An init.sh file for each VM that needs to start (eg westinit.sh, eastinit.sh, etc)
  • One run.sh file for the host that is the initiator (eg westrun.sh)
  • Known good (sanitized) output for each VM (eg west.console.txt, east.console.txt)
  • testparams.sh if there are any non-default test parameters

Once the test run has completed, you will see an OUTPUT/ directory in the test case directory: 

$ ls OUTPUT/
east.console.diff  east.console.verbose.txt  RESULT       west.console.txt          west.pluto.log
east.console.txt   east.pluto.log            swan12.pcap  west.console.diff  west.console.verbose.txt
  • RESULT is a text file (whose format is sure to change in the next few months) stating whether the test succeeded or failed.
  • The diff files show the differences between this testrun and the last known good output.
  • Each VM's serial (sanitized) console log (eg west.console.txt)
  • Each VM's unsanitized verbose console output (eg west.console.verbose.txt)
  • A network capture from the bridge device (eg swan12.pcap)
  • Each VM's pluto log, created with plutodebug=all (eg west.pluto.log)
  • Any core dumps generated if a pluto daemon crashed

Network Diagram

  • interface-0 (eth0, vio0, vioif0) is connected to SWANDEFAULT which has a NAT gateway to the internet
    • the exceptions are the Linux test domains: EAST, WEST, ROAD, NORTH; should they?
    • the BSD domains always up inteface-0 so that /pool, /source, and /testing can be NFS mounted
    • NIC needs to run DHCP on eth0 manually; how?
    • transmogrify does not try to modify interface-0(SWANDEFAULT) (doing so would break established network sessions such as NFS)
  • the interface names do not have consistent order (see comment above about Fedora's interface-0 not pointing at SWANDEFAULT)
    • Fedora has ethN
    • OpenBSD has vioN (different order)
    • NetBSD has vioifN (different order)

Problems with the existing Network

The current network has a number of limitations. This section identifies those problems and proposes changes to address them:

  • the gateway had only 128 DHCP addresses
  • public networks are being used: 192.0.1.0/24 is owned by elevatedcomputing.com; 192.1.2.0/24 is owned by raytheon.com; 192.1.3.0/24 is owned by raytheon.com
  • 192.168.234.0/24 (gateway) is reserved for private use networks and known to clash with toronto airport
  • using public interfaces means that they can't be used in documentation
  • can't test two hosts where each is behind a gateway VPN

see Ref https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc5737 https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc3849 https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc6890

The suggestion is:

  • use the benchmarking network 198.18.0.0/15
  • reserve 198.19/16 for the gateway
  • revive [sun]RISE (behind EAST) and [sun]SET (behind WEST)
  • reserve a number N for each machine / network: EAST: 23; WEST: 45; RISE: 123; SET: 145; NORTH: 33; NIC: 254
  • use 198.18.2N.N/24 for IPsec Interfaces
  • use 192.18.1N.1N/24 for RISE and SET
