Three tests use the initial namespace and fail on what the machine has
in it rather than on the kernel under test.
test_sock binds 127.0.0.1:5000, which a web server on the machine holds,
and test_xdp_features binds an IPv6 control socket that the machine's
firewall refuses:
Failed connecting to the Device Under Test control socket
test_xdp_features also always names its device v1 and traps cleanup for
signals only, not for a normal exit, so a failed run leaves the device
and the namespace behind and every later run stops in setup with nothing
printed at all. Five namespaces were left over after one suite run here.
test_tunnel has the same problem and two more of its own: it needs the
fou module, which nothing loads, and it asks for encapsulations this
kernel may not have. Load the module, and let check() probe the kernel
so the callers skip an encapsulation that is missing instead of failing.
Run all three in a namespace of their own: no rule and no service of the
machine applies, and whatever they leave behind goes away with it.

The test loads a program that denies write access to a map and then
checks that reading it still works. Reading it through a bpftool that
opens the map for writing therefore fails:
Error: can't get map by id (68627): Operation not permitted
Read access to 0 0 0 0 in prot_map failed
which is what the bpftool of the distribution does here, v7.5.0 against
the v7.7.0 built from this tree. Prefer the one next to the test, and
fall back to $PATH when it is not there.

The test fills a map of tgt_free * 2 elements and then reads back all
but the last few, which fails on a machine with six cpus:
test_lru_sanity3 (map_type:9 map_flags:0x0): test_lru_map.c:463:
test_lru_sanity3: Assertion `!bpf_map_lookup_elem_with_ref_bit(
lru_map_fd, key, value)' failed.
The elements are handed out in refills of lru->target_free, which the
kernel derives from the map size as clamp((size / nr_cpus) / 2, 1,
LOCAL_FREE_TARGET), 21 for a 256 element map and six cpus. A refill
the global free list cannot satisfy in full does not stop there, it
calls __bpf_lru_list_shrink() for the remainder, and that evicts
elements which are still live. 256 is not a multiple of 21, so filling
the map ends on a partial refill that drops 17 of the elements the test
goes on to reference, and the lookup fails on the first of them.
Whether the size divides evenly depends on the cpu count alone, which
is why this passes on two and on sixty four cpus and fails on six.
batch_size is already __tgt_size(tgt_free), the refill size of a map
of __map_size(batch_size) elements, so size the map that way and the
fill consumes whole refills and evicts nothing. Start the keys of the
last insert at map_size + 1, they were placed just past the old size.
Fixes: 5e9388f7984a ("selftests/bpf: adapt one more case in test_lru_map to the new target_free")

Sent v2 patchset:
https://lists.openvz.org/pipermail/devel/2026-September/084967.html
Added "ms/" prefix for upstream cherry-pick, split the upstreamable
commit from commit to test_sock.c and test_tunnel.sh which are gone
upstream.
