[Ubuntu Kernel Bot <2066332@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

This bug is awaiting verification that the linux-oracle/6.8.0-1008.8
kernel in -proposed solves the problem. Please test the kernel and
update this bug with the results. If the problem is solved, change the
tag 'verification-needed-noble-linux-oracle' to 'verification-done-
noble-linux-oracle'. If the problem still exists, change the tag
'verification-needed-noble-linux-oracle' to 'verification-failed-noble-
linux-oracle'.


If verification is not done by 5 working days from today, this fix will
be dropped from the source code, and this bug will be closed.


See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how
to enable and use -proposed. Thank you!

Title:
  net:fib_rule_tests.sh in ubuntu_kselftests_net fails on Noble

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:

Status in linux source package in Noble:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  In our SRU cycles, all Noble kernels fail in the aforementioned
  kselftests:

        11238         20:50:51 DEBUG| [stdout] # Cannot open network
  namespace "testns": No such file or directory

  This error is caused by the local fix added in 2019:
  "UBUNTU: SAUCE: selftests: net: fix "from" match test in fib_rule_tests.sh"

  It was no longer necessary because a similar fix was applied in upstream:
  d1abf388604f ("selftests: fib_rule_tests: enable forwarding before ipv4 from/iif test")

  However, such a Ubuntu-local commit is often blindly carried over to
  future releases because nobody re-evaluates whether it is still needed
  or not.

  Now, it is causing a real issue on Noble kselftests.

    $ linux/tools/testing/selftests/net$ sudo ./fib_rule_tests.sh
    Cannot open network namespace "testns": No such file or directory
      
  The reason for the failure is obvious; there is no such a namespace since the upstream commit 6c0ee7b4d69d ("selftests/net: convert fib_rule_tests.sh to run it in unique namespace").

  Reverting the outdated commit fixes this failure.
