Subject: [PATCH v4 03/12] kvm: Provide explicit error for kvm_create_guest_memfd()
Date: Wed, 12 Aug 2026 15:16:41 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260812201938.198915-4-michael.roth@amd.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260812201938.198915-1-michael.roth@amd.com>

So that there will be a verbal string returned when kvm not enabled, or
kvm not compiled.
