[PATCH net-next v8 10/14] selftests/vsock: add tests for proc sys vsock ns_mode

Bobby Eshleman
2025-10-23T18:28:15Z

From: Bobby Eshleman <bobbyeshleman@meta.com>

Add tests for the /proc/sys/net/vsock/ns_mode interface. Namely,
that it accepts "global" and "local" strings and enforces a write-once
policy.

Start a convention of commenting the test name over the test
description. Add test name comments over test descriptions that existed
before this convention.

Add a check_netns() function that checks if the test requires namespaces
and if the current kernel supports namespaces. Skip tests that require
namespaces if the system does not have namespace support.

This patch is the first to add tests that do *not* re-use the same
shared VM. For that reason, it adds a run_tests() function to run these
tests and filter out the shared VM tests.
