It turns out that these BPF programs (progs/bind6_prog.c, progs/bind4_prog.c, and progs/connect4_prog.c) expect the veth pair setup with these names (test_sock_addr1, test_sock_addr2). We may be able to update the logic in these BPF programs to allow us to just use lo, but I'm not sure if we'd be losing out on important test coverage. Additionally, since we aren't fully retiring test_sock_addr.c yet we'd also need to change test_sock_addr.sh if we changed progs/bind6_prog.c, progs/bind4_prog.c, and progs/connect4_prog.c. If there are no objections to leaving things as-is here, I will send out v3 with the rest of the changes listed above. -Jordan
