[PATCH net 5/5] selftests: mptcp: join: fix local endp not being tracked

From: "Matthieu Baerts (NGI0)" <matttbe@kernel.org>
Date: 2026-01-27 19:27:51
Also in: linux-kselftest, lkml, mptcp, stable
Subsystem: kernel selftest framework, networking [general], networking [mptcp], the rest · Maintainers: Shuah Khan, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Matthieu Baerts, Mat Martineau, Linus Torvalds

When running this mptcp_join.sh selftest on older kernel versions not
supporting local endpoints tracking, this test fails because 3 MP_JOIN
ACKs have been received, while only 2 were expected.

It is not clear why only 2 MP_JOIN ACKs were expected on old kernel
versions, while 3 MP_JOIN SYN and SYN+ACK were expected. When testing on
the v5.15.197 kernel, 3 MP_JOIN ACKs are seen, which is also what is
expected in the selftests included in this kernel version, see commit
f4480eaad489 ("selftests: mptcp: add missing join check").

Switch the expected MP_JOIN ACKs to 3. While at it, move this
chk_join_nr helper out of the special condition for older kernel
versions as it is now the same as with more recent ones. Also, invert
the condition to be more logical: what's expected on newer kernel
versions having such helper first.
