This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled selftest/net/forwarding: declare NETIFS p9 p10 to the 5.10-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: selftest-net-forwarding-declare-netifs-p9-p10.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.10 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 8f7a50d14a1f69b3ca9fbcd309d7310643507b2c Author: Hangbin Liu <liuhangbin@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon Dec 13 16:36:00 2021 +0800 selftest/net/forwarding: declare NETIFS p9 p10 [ Upstream commit 71da1aec215290e249d09c44c768df859f3a3bba ] The recent GRE selftests defined NUM_NETIFS=10. If the users copy forwarding.config.sample to forwarding.config directly, they will get error "Command line is not complete" when run the GRE tests, because create_netif_veth() failed with no interface name defined. Fix it by extending the NETIFS with p9 and p10.
