@rravaiol, wondering if this bz has a chance of finding resolution before friday when 4.9 target release bugs
should be done. Asking because I have the bz [0] to re-enable the test and it's marking the target release as 4.9. I will
remove that if there is no chance this will be resolved in time.

**** The test works fine in upstream kubernetes. For instance, when running it in a KIND cluster with a 1.21.1 kubernetes image, it succeeds:

$ _output/dockerized/bin/linux/amd64/e2e.test -kubeconfig $HOME/admin.conf -ginkgo.focus=".*conntrack entries.*" -num-nodes 2

**** However, the test fails in openshift because starting from version 4.6 we dropped NET_RAW capability as default capabilities for containers (https://docs.openshift.com/container-platform/4.6/release_notes/ocp-4-6-release-notes.html#ocp-4-6-known-issues). When running the test in openshift (in this case, 4.9), the logs of the boom-server pod are the following:

$ oc logs boom-server -n conntrack-5646 -f
2021/09/27 16:33:45 external ip: 10.128.6.28

**** The boom-server image used in this test forges out-of-order TCP packets and injects them into the network. This requires the container to have the CAP_NET_RAW linux capability, otherwise the test will fail.


I just posted a PR fixing this in upstream kubernetes: https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/105283

@

It looks like upstream merged. Is this now in origin downstream? Can we move to modified?

Yes, the commit is now in origin downstream, moving the BZ status to MODIFIED.

@rravaiol, this test is still failing even with this commit. Maybe I'm missing something, but I have a PR
here [0] to re-enable the test and it still fails in the job [1] on that PR. At first I was not sure the tests were
being run with your fix because the k8s-e2e test version was still reporting v1.22 (can see in the build log of [1]),
but I think they just haven't tagged the openshift/kubernetes repo with v1.23 yet. I added some debug code in
my PR to re-enable the test to verify it really is using the code with your fix. It's still failing however.

Any ideas on this?

This is now passing in CI. This PR [0] will re-enable the test, but you can see the
job [1] running on that PR is passing this test case now. You can also see that the
e2e test version is also v1.23 [2]
