Thanks for taking a look and your feedback.

Yes. The runner decides that, by passing -n

Ah, I guess this requires adding CONFIG_NET_NS=y to
tools/testing/selftests/net/packetdrill/config

No, we opted for this design exactly to use existing kselftest infra,
rather than reimplementing that in our wrapper, as I did in the RFC.

I don't know. Just importing this verbatim from github.
As that is debugged over a long time and proven to work.

Indeed that's why. If a test fails in automated testing we can run
manually to inspect such output.

That should be fine. If a test cares about a sysctl, then it needs to
set it at the start. In this case, they both will set exactly the same
anyway.

Future packetdrill tests can have different shell preambles. Let's
indeed leave it to the tests themselves.
