Error: pod stats is not supported in rootless mode without cgroups v2

[cevich]

/kind bug

Description

Nearly/all podman pod stats tests fail when running as a user, on a host using CGroupsV1 & runc-1.0.0-146.rc92. The tests were globally skipped in the case of rootless + CGroupsV2. However, apparently they also cannot function with CGv1 either.

As of #8312 this has been addressed by a blanket SkipIfRootless(). I am not certain if this is otherwise fixable or worth the effort, since --cgroup-manager=cgroupfs is required for rootless operation.

Steps to reproduce the issue:

1. Execute integration tests as a regular user

Describe the results you expected:

Someone who knows more than me should examine BeforeEach() in test/e2e/pod_stats_test.go to ensure the skip-selection is correct. Esp. after #8312 is merged.

The logic here sounds inverted. The tests should run on Cgroups v2 + rootless. They are not expected to work on cgroups v1 + rootless.

Sorry, I don't follow how that's any different from the issue title?

Also...aren't you suppose to be on PTO? 😛
