This includes as per this bug net/fib_nexthop_nongw.sh, but also could potentially include other such as rtnetlink.sh, fib_rule_tests.sh, forwarding/* etc. [Fix] * Custom patch to enable CONFIG_DUMMY=m [Test Plan] * Before the fix, the net/fib_nexthop_nongw.sh script will fail in the specific line which does $ ip -n h1 link add name eth0 type dummy Error: Unknown device type. After the fix it does not fail. [Where problems could occur] * The regression can be considered as low, since we are adding functionality not previously present. [Other Info] * There does not seem to be a historical reason for removing it from linux-kvm.
