[Devel] [PATCH hci-8.1 v4 1/1] selftests: drv-net-hw: skip the tests that need a real interface

[Konstantin Khorenko]

True for lib.sh alone, not with this helper ahead of it: the helper
sources forwarding.config into the same shell, so lib.sh then sees a
NETIF_FIND_DRIVER set there and picks the ports by driver. The helper
ignores it, takes veth0 and skips a test lib.sh would run on hardware.

The reverse is off too. lib.sh sources forwarding.config after
netif_find_driver(), and NETIFS=(...) there replaces what the driver
found. The early return below trusts the driver and hands lib.sh a
config full of veths.

lib.sh's order is command line, config NETIFS, driver, veth defaults.
Follow it:
