Subject: [kvm-unit-tests PATCH v2 1/2] x86: Make cet and lam tests KVM-only
Date: Tue, 29 Sep 2026 20:24:33 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260929202434.174501-2-xiaoyao.li@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260929202434.174501-1-xiaoyao.li@intel.com>
Passing "-enable-kvm" in qemu_params forces tests to run with kvm
accelerator. This leads cet and lam tests to run with kvm accelerator
silently without any warning even when "ACCEL=tcg" is passed. Change to
require "accel = kvm" for cet and lam tests so that they can be skipped:
SKIP cet (kvm only, but ACCEL=tcg)
SKIP lam (kvm only, but ACCEL=tcg)
when "ACCEL=tcg" is passed.
As a bouns, removing the use of "-enable-kvm" will allow pass $ACCEL and
$ACCEL_PROPS to the standalone "-accel" QEMU parameter, since QEMU
translates "-enable-kvm" to "-machine accel=kvm", which is not
compatbile with "-accel" parameter:
qemu: The -accel and "-machine accel=" options are incompatible
