Some systems don't have the ping6 binary anymore, and use ping for
everything. Detect the absence of ping6 and try to use ping instead.

<title>selftests: pmtu: maximum MTU for vti4 is 2^16-1-20</title>

<content type='text'>
Since commit 82612de1c98e ("ip_tunnel: restore binding to ifaces with a
large mtu"), the maximum MTU for vti4 is based on IP_MAX_MTU instead of
the mysterious constant 0xFFF8.  This makes this selftest fail.

Only the police action allows us to specify an arbitrary numeric value
for the control action. This change introduces an explicit test case
for the above feature and then leverage it for testing the kernel behavior
for invalid control actions (reject).

There are plans to change how /proc/self result is calculated,
for that a test is necessary.

Use direct system call because of this whole getpid caching story.

As with many other projects, we use some shmalloc allocator.  At some
point we need to make a part of allocated pages back private to process.
And it should be populated straight away.  Check that (MAP_PRIVATE |
MAP_POPULATE) actually copies the private page.

Test KVM dirty logging functionality.

The test creates a standalone memory slot to test tracking the dirty
pages since we can't really write to the default memory slot which still
contains the guest ELF image.

We have two threads running during the test:

(1) the vcpu thread continuously dirties random guest pages by writting
    a iteration number to the first 8 bytes of the page

(2) the host thread continuously fetches dirty logs for the testing
    memory region and verify each single bit of the dirty bitmap by
    checking against the values written onto the page

Note that since the guest cannot calls the general userspace APIs like
random(), it depends on the host to provide random numbers for the
page indexes to dirty.
