Subject: [PATCH v4 10/11] KVM: selftests: Split ____vm_create() and add vm_create_from_fd()
Date: Tue, 28 Jul 2026 12:11:37 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260728121138.1103610-11-tarunsahu@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260728121138.1103610-1-tarunsahu@google.com>
Refactor ____vm_create() in the KVM selftest library to extract its
initialization steps into separate helpers vm_init_fields() and
vm_init_memory_properties(). Also introduce vm_create_from_fd() to
instantiate a struct kvm_vm from an existing VM file descriptor.
This allows test setups (such as guest_memfd preservation tests) to
reconstruct and initialize a struct kvm_vm when restoring preserved
VMs across live updates. No functional change is introduced for
existing tests.
