Public bug reported:
[Impact]
Testcase ubuntu_kernel_selftests.net:ioam6.sh fails in Focal with the 5.15
kernels with the following errors:
17:19:35 DEBUG| [stdout] make: Entering directory
'/tmp/autopkgtest.WSxPqj/build.GQs/src/autotest/cl

17:19:35 DEBUG| [stdout] # SKIP: iproute2 too old, missing ioam command
17:19:35 DEBUG| [stdout] not ok 1 selftests: net: ioam6.sh # exit=1
This is caused by an older version of iproute2 in Focal. The package has
been updated in Jammy via bug 1951390 and the bug report says it should
be updated in Focal as well. Even if the package is eventually updated,
the testcase shouldn't throw a fatal error in this case and really
return "SKIP" as the log message says.
[Fix]
The proper fix would be to make tools/testing/selftests/net/ioam6.sh return the
Kselftest framework proper skip code instead of failing.
[Testcase]
Run the selftest script in Focal with a 5.15 kernel.
[Where problems could occur]
If the skip code is added to places where it shouldn't be added it could
introduce false positives and not fail where it should.
