Yeah I may have added it a bit prematurely, as most of these fields are
only used by the ucontrol tests later in the series, so patch 1 doesn't
need them. I'll drop the struct from this patch and use local variables
in the next version, thanks

Good point, I'll remove these helpers as well and just call
vm_create_with_one_vcpu() and kvm_vm_free() directly

You're right, we should focus on only testing the exit, moreover
irq_injection has gotten its own test file now, ill drop this
in v2 >> + TEST_ASSERT(interrupts >= 0, "Cannot Inject Interrupt

Indeed, this can also go away in v2, lets keep it simple

Good point, I will note that for possibly extending the irq tests in the

I will update that accordingly, thanks !

It is only testing that r3-r6 survive the intercept, so I think I can
merge it into the DIAG 0x501 test for v2 >> + param =

This is for the virtio notify hypercall (500) in particular, I will be
more explicit with the variable names in v2 ! >> + "Failed
