Ido Schimmel 2df0e43735 selftests: forwarding: Skip test when no interfaces are specified 
commit d72c83b1e4 upstream.

As explained in [1], the forwarding selftests are meant to be run with
either physical loopbacks or veth pairs. The interfaces are expected to
be specified in a user-provided forwarding.config file or as command
line arguments. By default, this file is not present and the tests fail:

 # make -C tools/testing/selftests TARGETS=net/forwarding run_tests
 [...]
 TAP version 13
 1..102
 # timeout set to 45
 # selftests: net/forwarding: bridge_igmp.sh
 # Command line is not complete. Try option "help"
 # Failed to create netif
 not ok 1 selftests: net/forwarding: bridge_igmp.sh # exit=1
 [...]

Fix by skipping a test if interfaces are not provided either via the
configuration file or command line arguments.

 # make -C tools/testing/selftests TARGETS=net/forwarding run_tests
 [...]
 TAP version 13
 1..102
 # timeout set to 45
 # selftests: net/forwarding: bridge_igmp.sh
 # SKIP: Cannot create interface. Name not specified
 ok 1 selftests: net/forwarding: bridge_igmp.sh # SKIP

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
