This explained what is the issue. Please also explain how the patch solves it.

The idea is to check if there is socket listening on port 8888?

May be something simpler like "ss -OHtl src :$1" instead?

The check-and-wait fix in this patch is fine to get your test environment going.

Eventually, it will be good to see the test_tc_tunnel.sh test moved to 
test_progs. The test_tc_tunnel.sh is not run by bpf CI and issue like this got 
unnoticed. Some other "*.sh" tests have already been moved to test_progs.
