Subject: [PATCH net-next v2 0/5] selftests/net: add container ping test

This patchset is mostly prep work for adding a data path test for netkit
bind queue API used by iou zcrx and AF_XDP.

Use ksft_variants in iou-zcrx.py to run the same test cases with both
single queue or RSS. With changes in v2 this is a bit of an unrelated
drive by change but I'll keep it in this series.

Add a new test env NetDrvContEnv that sets up a container based test
with a netkit pair. This only works with netkit for now, but can be
extended to support e.g. veth.

The netdev core cannot forward net_iovs, and so to get skbs containing
net_iovs into a container, add a basic bpf tc/ingress prog to forward
skbs into a netkit pair.

For a remote to talk to the netns netkit, it needs a publicly routable
IP. Add a new env var LOCAL_PREFIX_V{4,6} that defines such a prefix.

Finally, add a basic ping test that brings everything together.

v2:
 - remove ksft_run suffix, MemPrvEnv, rand_ifname, bpf C loader
 - implement NetDrvContEnv
 - redo nk_netns.py ping test
 - fix docs

David Wei (5):
  selftests/net: parametrise iou-zcrx.py with ksft_variants
  selftests/net: add bpf skb forwarding program
  selftests/net: add LOCAL_PREFIX_V{4,6} env to HW selftests
  selftests/net: add env for container based tests
  selftests/net: add a netkit netns ping test
