These patches aim to make using the openvswitch testsuite more reliable. These should address the major sources of flakiness in the openvswitch test suite allowing the CI infrastructure to exercise the openvswitch module for patch series. There should be no change for users who simply run the tests (except that patch 3/3 does make some of the debugging a bit easier by making some output more verbose).
Hi Aaron!
The results look solid on normal builds now, but with a debug kernel the test is failing consistently:

Yes - it shows a test case issue with the upcall and psample tests.
Adrian and I discussed the correct approach would be using a wait_for instead of just sleeping, because it seems the dbg environment might be too racy. I think he is working on a follow up to submit after the psample work gets merged - we were hoping not to hold that patch series up with more potential conflicts or merge issues if that's okay.
