The cleanup() function takes care of killing processes launched by the
test functions. It relies on variables like ${tcpdump_pids} to get the
relevant PIDs. But tests are run in their own subshell, so updated
*_pids values are invisible to other shells. Therefore cleanup() never
sees any process to kill:
$ ./tools/testing/selftests/net/pmtu.sh -t pmtu_ipv4_exception
TEST: ipv4: PMTU exceptions [ OK ]
TEST: ipv4: PMTU exceptions - nexthop objects [ OK ]
$ pgrep -af tcpdump

Fix this by running cleanup() in the context of the test subshell.
Now that each test cleans the environment after completion, there's no
need for calling cleanup() again when the next test starts. So let's
drop it from the setup() function. This is okay because cleanup() is
also called when pmtu.sh starts, so even the first test starts in a
clean environment.
Also, use tcpdump's immediate mode. Otherwise it might not have time to
process buffered packets, resulting in missing packets or even empty
pcap files for short tests.
Note: PAUSE_ON_FAIL is still evaluated before cleanup(), so one can
still inspect the test environment upon failure when using -p.

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.
