No.  /dev/ss7-sdl-udp0 is SS7 over UDP.

test-m2pa runs q781 tests for M2PA (SS7 MTP2 over SCTP).


The INSTALL file says:

  TEST PROGRAMS:
    .
    .
    .

  test-q781:
      Opens two /dev/ss7-sdl-udp0 ss7 links and pushes a "sdt" and "sl" STREAMS
      module onto one half and uses the other half as a protocol tester for
      performing Q.781 conformance tests.  Running the program generates the
      output of 107 Q.781 test cases and demonstrates conformance to 97 test
      cases.  (The remaining 10 test casea are inconclusive because of the
      inability to "break Tx" on UDP.)  The two files:

	-rw-r--r--  1 brian  users   115252 Nov  9 18:34 test/log.shaper
	-rw-r--r--  1 brian  users   116501 Nov  9 18:34 test/log.tick

      show the output of my runs of the test-q781 program.

  test-m2pa:
      Opens three /dev/sctp_n (NPI Interface) streams and pushes the "m2pa"
      STREAMS module over one of them, and uses the other two as a protocol
      tester for performing modified Q.781 conformance tests.  Running the
      program generates the output of 107 Q.781 tst cases and demonstrates
      conformance to 73 test cases.  (The remaining 34 test cases are not
      applicable to M2PA.  The file:

	-rw-r--r--  1 brian  users   271103 Dec  7 02:42 test/log.m2pa

RTFM

Because I wanted to test the STREAMS module, not the XTI library.

Yes.
