Subject: [PATCH 5.10.y] selftests: mptcp: pm: ensure unknown flags are ignored
Date: Thu, 12 Feb 2026 12:50:57 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260212115056.898313-2-matttbe@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <2025122947-clapping-zookeeper-5d32@gregkh>

commit 29f4801e9c8dfd12bdcb33b61a6ac479c7162bd7 upstream.

This validates the previous commit: the userspace can set unknown flags
-- the 7th bit is currently unused -- without errors, but only the
supported ones are printed in the endpoints dumps.

The 'Fixes' tag here below is the same as the one from the previous
commit: this patch here is not fixing anything wrong in the selftests,
but it validates the previous fix for an issue introduced by this commit
ID.

Fixes: 01cacb00b35c ("mptcp: add netlink-based PM")

[ Conflicts in pm_netlink.sh, because some refactoring have been done
  later on: commit 0d16ed0c2e74 ("selftests: mptcp: add
  {get,format}_endpoint(s) helpers") and commit c99d57d0007a
  ("selftests: mptcp: use pm_nl endpoint ops") are not in this version.
  The same operation can still be done at the same place, without using
  the new helpers.
  Also, commit 1dc88d241f92 ("selftests: mptcp: pm_nl_ctl: always look
  for errors") is not in this version, and create a conflict in the
  context which is not related to the modification here.
  In v5.10, endpoints couldn't be re-used directly, so the flag is
  tested before.
  Conflicts in pm_nl_ctl.c, because commit 69c6ce7b6eca ("selftests:
  mptcp: add implicit endpoint test case") and commit 371b90377e60
  ("selftests: mptcp: set and print the fullmesh flag") are not in this
  version, and caused a conflict in the context which is not related to
  the modification here. ]
