From d328fe87067480cf2bd0b58dab428a98d31dbb7e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Matthieu Baerts matthieu.baerts@tessares.net Date: Sun, 28 May 2023 19:35:26 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] selftests: mptcp: join: avoid using 'cmp --bytes'

BusyBox's 'cmp' command doesn't support the '--bytes' parameter.

Some CIs -- i.e. LKFT -- use BusyBox and have the mptcp_join.sh test failing [1] because their 'cmp' command doesn't support this '--bytes' option:

cmp: unrecognized option '--bytes=1024' BusyBox v1.35.0 () multi-call binary.

Usage: cmp [-ls] [-n NUM] FILE1 [FILE2]

Instead, 'head --bytes' can be used as this option is supported by BusyBox. A temporary file is needed for this operation.

Because it is apparently quite common to use BusyBox, it is certainly better to backport this fix to impacted kernels.
