I'm not clear why KTAP would require C?
When going through the documentation there was only mention of the C headers for the kselftest framework which outputs using the KTAP format, so I thought that was the only acceptable option.
But in the meantime while looking through the other tests I saw you've recently added ktap output to ftrace/ftracetest. The newly added test in net/mptcp/mptcp_lib.sh also has its own helpers for outputting in KTAP. There are also a couple other cases of this in python.
So I can definitely do the same for this test.
Right, KTAP is a format specification for what appears on stdout - how that output is generated is immaterial. It's just that most tests are written in C so that's where the helpers are.
