[PATCH nf] selftests: netfilter: nft_flowtable.sh: check offload counters for IP6IP6 tunnel test

From: Lorenzo Bianconi <lorenzo@kernel.org>
Date: 2026-07-11 13:56:17
Also in: linux-kselftest, netfilter-devel
Subsystem: kernel selftest framework, netfilter, networking [general], the rest · Maintainers: Shuah Khan, Pablo Neira Ayuso, Florian Westphal, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds

The IP6IP6 tunnel test uses test_tcp_forwarding() which only verifies
TCP data integrity but does not verify that flowtable offload actually
took place. Unlike the non-tunnel and IPIP tests, it omits the
check_counters() call.
The reply direction for IP6IP6 tunnel traffic goes through the physical
interface (oif=veth0), so it is already counted by the existing
routed_repl counter rule. Add check_counters() after the IP6IP6 test to
detect offload failures.
