Allow/deny lists allow to specify subtests as well, so you can have
very granular control. E.g.,

[vmuser@archvm bpf]$ sudo ./test_progs -a 'libbpf_probe_prog_types/*SK*'
Failed to load bpf_testmod.ko into the kernel: -22
WARNING! Selftests relying on bpf_testmod.ko will be skipped.
#96/8    libbpf_probe_prog_types/BPF_PROG_TYPE_CGROUP_SKB:OK
#96/14   libbpf_probe_prog_types/BPF_PROG_TYPE_SK_SKB:OK
#96/16   libbpf_probe_prog_types/BPF_PROG_TYPE_SK_MSG:OK
#96/21   libbpf_probe_prog_types/BPF_PROG_TYPE_SK_REUSEPORT:OK
#96/30   libbpf_probe_prog_types/BPF_PROG_TYPE_SK_LOOKUP:OK
#96      libbpf_probe_prog_types:OK
Summary: 1/5 PASSED, 0 SKIPPED, 0 FAILED


As you can see each program type is a subtest, so you can pick and
choose which ones to run.
