** Description changed:

+ == Justification ==
  The run_afpackettests will be marked as passed regardless the return
  value of those sub-tests in the script:
      --------------------
      running psock_tpacket test
      --------------------
      [FAIL]
      selftests: run_afpackettests [PASS]
  
  Fix this by changing the return value for each tests.
  
+ == Fix ==
+ * 8c03557 (selftests/net: correct the return value for run_afpackettests)
+ 
+ This patch has alreay landed on newer releases and D with stable
+ updates.
+ For X and B this can be backported with the same logic.
+ 
+ == Test ==
+ Tested on a Xenial KVM with this patch applied on these two trees, when
+ the test failed the return value will be 1 instead of 0 as expected.
+ 
+ == Regression Potential ==
+ * Low, it's just reflecting the real test return value. We may see this
+ test failing on some kernels but it's good as it's reporting a real bug.
+ 
+ 
+ == Original Bug Report ==
+ The run_afpackettests will be marked as passed regardless the return
+ value of those sub-tests in the script:
+     --------------------
+     running psock_tpacket test
+     --------------------
+     [FAIL]
+     selftests: run_afpackettests [PASS]
+ 
+ Fix this by changing the return value for each tests.

  Patch sent to upstream.
