Subject: [kvm-unit-tests PATCH v3 02/20] x86/vmx: Drop unused guest_regs "support" in nested VMX infrastructure
Date: Thu, 14 May 2026 14:04:42 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260514210500.1626871-3-seanjc@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260514210500.1626871-1-seanjc@google.com>
Drop vmx_tests.guest_regs as no tests use the functionality, the field is
very misleading (it's only used to set the initial regs, i.e. it's not an
up-to-date snapshot), and per-test register state doesn't play nice with
tests that create and run multiple vCPUs.
