The existing script lacks a policy pattern that triggers 'tree node
merges' in the kernel.
Consider adding policy affecting following subnet:
pol1: dst 10.0.0.0/22
pol2: dst 10.0.0.0/23 # adds to existing 10.0.0.0/22 node
-> no problems here. But now, lets consider reverse order:
pol1: dst 10.0.0.0/24
pol2: dst 10.0.0.0/23 # CANNOT add to existing node
When second policy gets added, the kernel must check that the new node
("10.0.0.0/23") doesn't overlap with any existing subnet.
Example:
dst 10.0.0.0/24
dst 10.0.0.1/24
dst 10.0.0.0/23
When the third policy gets added, the kernel must replace the nodes for
the 10.0.0.0/24 and 10.0.0.1/24 policies with a single one and must merge
all the subtrees/lists stored in those nodes into the new node.
The existing test cases only have overlaps with a single node, so no
merging takes place (we can always remove the 'old' node and replace
it with the new subnet prefix).
Add a few 'block policies' in a pattern that triggers this, with a priority
that will make kernel prefer the 'esp' rules.
Make sure the 'tunnel ping' tests still pass after they have been added.

README
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 Restructured Text 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.
