Hi Eduard,
One more question (for my understanding):

Could you explain a bit more why it's not needed?
I read commit 0f4feacc9155 ("selftests/bpf: Adding pid filtering for
atomics test") which added those 'pid' checks to atomics/ tests. The
commit message [1] says the purpose was to "make atomics test able to
run in parallel with other tests", which I couldn't understand.
How using bpf_prog_test_run_opts() makes those 'pid' checks unnecessary?
