Hi Pu,

Thank you for sharing the docker file, I've managed to run the tests
using it. In order to avoid creating files with root permissions I had
to add the following lines at the end of the Dockerfile:

+ RUN useradd --no-create-home --uid 1000 eddy
+ RUN passwd -d eddy
+ RUN echo 'eddy ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD:ALL' >> /etc/sudoers
+ # vmtest.sh does 'mount -o loop',
+ # ensure there is a loop device in the container
+ RUN mknod /dev/loop0 b 7 20

Where 'eddy' is my local user with UID 1000.
Probably this should be made more generic.
I used the following command to start the container:

docker run -ti -u 1000:1000 \
    --rm -v <path-to-kernel-dir>:/workspace \
    -v <path-to-rootfs-image-dir>:/rootfs \
    --privileged ubuntu-vmtest:latest /bin/bash

Also, I had to add '-d /rootfs/bpf_selftests' option for vmtest.sh in
order to avoid polluting user directory inside the container.
Maybe OUTPUT_DIR for vmtest.sh should be mounted as a separate volume.

I agree with Daniel, it would be great to document all of this
somewhere in the repo (or even scripted somehow).

Using the specified DENYLIST I get the following stats for test_progs:

  #3/2     arena_htab/arena_htab_asm:FAIL
  #3       arena_htab:FAIL
  #95      get_branch_snapshot:FAIL
  #172/1   perf_branches/perf_branches_hw:FAIL
  #172     perf_branches:FAIL
  #434/3   verifier_arena/basic_alloc3:FAIL
  #434     verifier_arena:FAIL
  Summary: 531/3581 PASSED, 64 SKIPPED, 4 FAILED

Could you please add this change to the patch-set?
