Now that SOCKMAP can store listening sockets, user-space and BPF API is open to a new set of potential pitfalls. Exercise the map operations (with extra attention to code paths susceptible to races between map ops and socket cloning), and BPF helpers that work with SOCKMAP to gain confidence that all works as expected.

Should we mark it skipped or maybe even failed? Just concerned it may be passing even if the update doesn't actually happen.
Yes, it will be marked as failed if we don't succeed in creating a
listening socket. The listen_loopback helper uses x{socket,bind,listen}
wrappers, which in turn use the CHECK_FAIL macro to fail the test.
Thanks for going through this series till the end :-)
