I failed to reproduce the issue. I connected to the PPC64LE Fedora Stable buildbot, I built Python and ran:

./python -m test test_socket -m testStream -v

I tried as the vstinner user, and as the buildbot user: the test succeed in both cases.

Some logs on the buildbot:

vstinner@localhost:~/python/3.13$ ls -l /dev/vsock

vstinner@localhost:~/python/3.13$ cat x.py 
import socket
import fcntl
import struct


def get_cid():
    if fcntl is None:
        print("a")
        return None
    if not hasattr(socket, 'IOCTL_VM_SOCKETS_GET_LOCAL_CID'):
        print("b")
        return None
    try:
        with open("/dev/vsock", "rb") as f:
            r = fcntl.ioctl(f, socket.IOCTL_VM_SOCKETS_GET_LOCAL_CID, "    ")
    except OSError as exc:
        print("c", exc)
        return None
    else:
        return struct.unpack("I", r)[0]

print("CID", get_cid())
