Subject: [PATCH stable 5.8 22/25] selftests: rtnetlink: load fou module for kci_test_encap_fou() test
From: Po-Hsu Lin <po-hsu.lin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
[ Upstream commit 26ebd6fed9bb3aa480c7c0f147ac0e7b11000f65 ]
The kci_test_encap_fou() test from kci_test_encap() in rtnetlink.sh
needs the fou module to work. Otherwise it will fail with:
$ ip netns exec "$testns" ip fou add port 7777 ipproto 47
RTNETLINK answers: No such file or directory
Error talking to the kernel
Add the CONFIG_NET_FOU into the config file as well. Which needs at
least to be set as a loadable module.
