mainlining shenanigans
811d7e375d
It is common for networking tests creating its netns and making its own setting under this new netns (e.g. changing tcp sysctl). If the test forgot to restore to the original netns, it would affect the result of other tests. This patch saves the original netns at the beginning and then restores it after every test. Since the restore "setns()" is not expensive, it does it on all tests without tracking if a test has created a new netns or not. The new restore_netns() could also be done in test__end_subtest() such that each subtest will get an automatic netns reset. However, the individual test would lose flexibility to have total control on netns for its own subtests. In some cases, forcing a test to do unnecessary netns re-configure for each subtest is time consuming. e.g. In my vm, forcing netns re-configure on each subtest in sk_assign.c increased the runtime from 1s to 8s. On top of that, test_progs.c is also doing per-test (instead of per-subtest) cleanup for cgroup. Thus, this patch also does per-test restore_netns(). The only existing per-subtest cleanup is reset_affinity() and no test is depending on this. Thus, it is removed from test__end_subtest() to give a consistent expectation to the individual tests. test_progs.c only ensures any affinity/netns/cgroup change made by an earlier test does not affect the following tests.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
