I think a new group of tests are needed if we (the community) want tests against QEMU emulation. I would love to see that addition to add more robustness to kernel CXL regression testing. The current tests are written exclusively for cxl_test. There are certain design choices made and certain test cases specifically created by cxl_test to exercise kernel paths. As always, patches are welcome to augment CXL CLI package testing. :)
