Subject: [PATCH v2 5/6] test: increase gap in pcapng test
Date: Mon, 29 Dec 2025 15:01:08 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251229230223.151874-6-stephen@networkplumber.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251229230223.151874-1-stephen@networkplumber.org>
Want to make sure that test takes long enough that 32 bit
counter wraps around.
