Subject: [PATCH v3 09/10] KVM: selftests: Support running stress save+restore and #PF test in L2
Date: Mon, 29 Jun 2026 18:37:44 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260629183746.699840-10-yosry@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260629183746.699840-1-yosry@kernel.org>

Extend the stress test to allow running the access+#PF code in L2
instead of L1 by adding proper L1 guest code to bootstrap L2. The test
runs in nested mode if a '-n' flag is added.
