[PATCH] selftests/bpf: Fix bpf_nf selftest failure

From: Saket Kumar Bhaskar
Date: Wed Apr 09 2025 - 05:57:47 EST


For systems with missing iptables-legacy tool, this selftest fails.

Add check to find if iptables-legacy tool is available and skip the
test if the tool is missing.

Fixes: de9c8d848d90 ("selftests/bpf: S/iptables/iptables-legacy/ in the bpf_nf and xdp_synproxy test")
