== SRU Justification ==
The kci_test_encap_fou() from kci_test_encap() in rtnetlink.sh of
kselftests/net will fail with non-zero return value, and print:
"FAIL: can't add fou port 7777, skipping test"
How to reproduce this:
devdummy="test-dummy0"
testns="testns"
ip netns add "$testns"
ip netns exec "$testns" ip link set lo up
ip netns exec "$testns" ip link add name "$devdummy" type dummy
ip netns exec "$testns" ip link set "$devdummy" up
ip netns exec "$testns" ip fou add port 7777 ipproto 47
RTNETLINK answers: No such file or directory
Error talking to the kernel
This test would require the fou module to be loaded before it gets
started.
== Fix
* 26ebd6fed9bb ("selftests: rtnetlink: load fou module for
kci_test_encap_fou() test")
This patch needs to be backported for series after Xenial.
== Test ==
Patch tested directly on the kernel tree, the test will now pass as
expected.
== Regression Potential ==
Low, change limited to the testing tool.
