NETNS support requires a kernel patch (or at least, last time I
looked). The kernel for this system doesn't have the proper support.
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.
Thanks and Regards,
