Subject: [PATCH v3 11/21] KVM: selftests: Print out the failing L{0,1,2} level in nested TSC scaling test
Date: Wed, 30 Sep 2026 10:36:25 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260930173635.3362655-12-seanjc@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260930173635.3362655-1-seanjc@google.com>
Print out which one of L0, L1, or L2 TSC frequency checks failed if the
nested TSC scaling test detects an out-of-bounds frequency. Triaging test
failures without the level information is unnecessarily painful.
