The existing XDP metadata test works by creating a veth pair and
attaching XDP & TC programs that drop the packet when the condition of
the test isn't fulfilled. The test then pings through the veth pair and
succeeds when the ping comes through.

While this test works great for a veth pair, it is hard to replicate for
tap devices to test the XDP metadata support of them. A similar test for
the tun driver would either involve logic to reply to the ping request,
or would have to capture the packet to check if it was dropped or not.

To make the testing of other drivers easier while still maximizing code
reuse, this commit refactors the existing xdp_context_functional test to
use a test_result map. Instead of conditionally passing or dropping the
packet, the TC program is changed to copy the received metadata into the
value of that single-entry array map. Tests can then verify that the map
value matches the expectation.

This testing logic is easy to adapt to other network drivers as the only
remaining requirement is that there is some way to send a custom
Ethernet packet through it that triggers the XDP & TC programs.

The payload of the Ethernet packet is used as the test data that is
expected to be passed as metadata from the XDP to the TC program and
written to the map. It has a fixed size of 32 bytes which is a
reasonalbe size that should be supported by both drivers. Additional
packet headers are not necessary for the test and were therefore skipped
to keep the testing code short.

Why remove the Rx and Tx addresses?

Because the testing methodology is changed from pinging and IP address
to sending a custom packet and handling it in XDP instead, the IP addresses
are no longer relevant for this test.
I removed them to reduce the testing code to only the setup tasks that are
needed for the test to do its job.

I can add a note about this to the commit message.

-		goto close;
-
-	tc_opts.prog_fd = bpf_program__fd(tc_prog);
+	tc_opts.prog_fd = bpf_program__fd(skel->progs.ing_cls);

This refactor seems irrelevant to the goal of this patch? Same below.

Fair point. These were drive-by cleanups to make the testing code less
verbose. But you're right, they are not relevant and just inflate the diff.
I'll remove them from the patch.

Similarly: why these changes?

In general, please minimize your patch to the core purpose. Avoid
including "cleanups" or other such refactors. Or justify the choice
explicitly in the commit message.

I had rewritten the function bodies of these two BPF programs from
scratch because the functionality changed significantly. That's where
this comes from.
I'll try to reuse more of the existing code to make the diff shorter.
