    selftests: mptcp: join: check re-adding init endp with != id · 1c2326fc
    Matthieu Baerts (NGI0) authored
    The initial subflow has a special local ID: 0. It is specific per
    connection.
    
    When a global endpoint is deleted and re-added later, it can have a
    different ID, but the kernel should still use the ID 0 if it corresponds
    to the initial address.
    
    This test validates this behaviour: the endpoint linked to the initial
    subflow is removed, and re-added with a different ID.
    
    Note that removing the initial subflow will not decrement the 'subflows'
    counters, which corresponds to the *additional* subflows. On the other
    hand, when the same endpoint is re-added, it will increment this
    counter, as it will be seen as an additional subflow this time.
    
    The 'Fixes' tag here below is the same as the one from the previous
    commit: this patch here is not fixing anything wrong in the selftests,
    but it validates the previous fix for an issue introduced by this commit
    ID.
    
    Fixes: 3ad14f54 ("mptcp: more accurate MPC endpoint tracking")
