Exactly.
I suspect the setup needs a bit more than just iperf udp test.
Does it need a specific driver and hw?
Can it be reproduced with veth or other virtual netdev?
Also commit talks about bpf_skb_proto_6_to_4.
So that bpf helper has to be somehow involved, but iperf udp test
says nothing about it.
Please craft a _complete_ selftest.
