There are a couple of places where the test script "sleep"s to wait for
some external condition to be met.
This is error prone, specially in slow systems (identified in CI by
"KSFT_MACHINE_SLOW=yes").
To fix this, add a "ovs_wait" function that tries to execute a command
a few times until it succeeds. The timeout used is set to 5s for
"normal" systems and doubled if a slow CI machine is detected.
This should make the following work:
$ vng --build \
--config tools/testing/selftests/net/config \
--config kernel/configs/debug.config
$ vng --run . --user root -- "make -C tools/testing/selftests/ \
KSFT_MACHINE_SLOW=yes TARGETS=net/openvswitch run_tests"

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
