This test needs to SKIP if LXC_netns_support is set to False. > The value of LXC_netns_support is set to false by default in the const.py. But, I guess this is not the appropriate way for verifying the NETNS support. Can you help me with the steps for automating the verification of the NETNS support in the kernel ? I shall update the tc to be skipped as of now for LXC by verifying the LXC_netns_support variable, we can update the tc to call appropriate function that verifies the NETNS support once it is in the test suite.
