mptcp_connect.sh can be executed manually with "-m <MODE>" and "-C" to make sure everything works as expected when using "mmap" and "sendfile" modes instead of "poll", and with the MPTCP checksum support.
These modes should be validated, but they are not when the selftests are executed via the kselftest helpers. It means that most CIs validating these selftests, like NIPA for the net development trees and LKFT for the stable ones, are not covering these modes.
To fix that, new test programs have been added, simply calling mptcp_connect.sh with the right parameters.
I just noticed these new tests print nested TAP output containing subtest results with the same content as the mptcp_connect.sh test. In other words, NIPA or other CIs will think the exact same tests are now executed 4 times, e.g.
# ok 2 - mptcp_connect: ping tests # time=2887ms
I will force new tests' prefixes to have different test names.
