The steps here is rather similar to test-netfilter.c. Let's try to
generalize them instead of duplicating codes.

Hardcoded port is not good here since it may cause false positive
(consider the tests may be trigged by lots of automated script both
upstream and downstream). A better solution is using socketpair(2) and
passing pre-created fd(s) to file chardev.
