Subject: selftests: net: add socat syslog for PPPoL2TP
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=ae4ef7271c28eac27801d8c439f2746ac5e57171;p=thirdparty%2Flinux.git

selftests: net: add socat syslog for PPPoL2TP

As done in pppoe.sh, start socat as the syslog listener. In case the
test fails, dump its log to see what's going on.
