I wonder why these > cases are not designed for i386? Or is there any other concerns? First of all, 32-bit hosts are rarely used in x86 virtualization today. Also, some tests may actually stress the same logic of KVM if run on 32-bit x86. That said, if you find cases where you think a 32-bit variant of a test case makes sense, feel free to suggest it!
