It is supposed to but it doesn't :-) Actually, not only kvm-unit-tests
but the whole SVM would appreciate some love ...

On my AMD EPYC 7401P 24-Core Processor bare metal I get the following
failures:

FAIL vmware_backdoors (11 tests, 8 unexpected failures)

(Why can't we just check
/sys/module/kvm/parameters/enable_vmware_backdoor btw???)

FAIL svm (15 tests, 1 unexpected failures)

There is a patch for that:

https://lore.kernel.org/kvm/d3eeb3b5-13d7-34d2-4ce0-fdd534f2bcc3@redhat.com/T/#t

Inside a VM on this host I see the following:

FAIL apic-split (timeout; duration=90s)
FAIL apic (timeout; duration=30)

(I manually inreased the timeout but it didn't help - this is worrisome,
most likely this is a hang)

FAIL vmware_backdoors (11 tests, 8 unexpected failures)

- same as on bare metal

FAIL port80 (timeout; duration=90s)

- hang again?

FAIL svm (timeout; duration=90s)

- most likely a hang but this is 3-level nesting so oh well..

FAIL kvmclock_test 

- bad but maybe something is wrong with TSC on the host? Need to
  investigate ...

FAIL hyperv_clock 

- this is expected as it doesn't work when the clocksource is not TSC
  (e.g. kvm-clock)

Are you seeing different failures?
