From 4121d9479b24c20ff7d3e7b62a7cf330fae7b2af Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Petr Machata Date: Fri, 24 Jan 2020 15:23:16 +0200 Subject: selftests: forwarding: lib: Add helpers for busywaiting The function busywait() is handy as a safety-latched variant of a while loop. Many selftests deal specifically with counter values, and busywaiting on them is likely to be rather common (it is not quite common now, but busywait() has not been around for very long). To facilitate expressing simply what is tested, introduce two helpers: - until_counter_is(), which can be used as a predicate passed to busywait(), which holds when expression, which is itself passed as an argument to until_counter_is(), reaches a desired value. - busywait_for_counter(), which is useful for waiting until a given counter changes "by" (as opposed to "to") a certain amount.
