Subject: selftests: do not require bash to run netsocktests testcase
From: Rolf Eike Beer <[email protected]>
commit 3659f98b5375d195f1870c3e508fe51e52206839 upstream.
Nothing in this minimal script seems to require bash. We often run these tests on embedded devices where the only shell available is the busybox ash. Use sh instead.
