I am now building from new system (comp), and the kernel selftests are
not being installed correctly, so I haven't been able to run the
selftests yet.

I have made a blackhole selftest, which looks like this:

test_blackhole_fdb()
{
RET=0

check_blackhole_fdb_support || return 0

tcpdump_start $h2
$MZ $h1 -q -t udp -a $h1 -b $h2
tcpdump_stop
tcpdump_show | grep -q udp
check_err $? "test_blackhole_fdb: No packet seen on initial"
tcpdump_cleanup

bridge fdb add `mac_get $h2` dev br0 blackhole
bridge fdb show dev br0 | grep -q "blackhole"
check_err $? "test_blackhole_fdb: No blackhole FDB entry found"

tcpdump_start $h2
$MZ $h1 -q -t udp -a $h1 -b $h2
tcpdump_stop
tcpdump_show | grep -q udp
check_fail $? "test_blackhole_fdb: packet seen with blackhole
fdb entry"
tcpdump_cleanup

bridge fdb del `mac_get $h2` dev br0 blackhole
bridge fdb show dev br0 | grep -q "blackhole"
check_fail $? "test_blackhole_fdb: Blackhole FDB entry not
deleted"

tcpdump_start $h2
$MZ $h1 -q -t udp -a $h1 -b $h2
tcpdump_stop
tcpdump_show | grep -q udp
check_err $? "test_blackhole_fdb: No packet seen after removing
blackhole FDB entry"
tcpdump_cleanup

log_test "Blackhole FDB entry test"
}

the setup is simple and is the same as in bridge_sticky_fdb.sh.

Does the test look sound or is there obvious mistakes?
