I tested this with
diff --git i/tools/testing/selftests/kvm/guest_memfd_test.c w/tools/testing/selftests/kvm/guest_memfd_test.c
index 618c937f3c90f..f6de2a678bf99 100644
--- i/tools/testing/selftests/kvm/guest_memfd_test.c
+++ w/tools/testing/selftests/kvm/guest_memfd_test.c
@@ -182,6 +182,8 @@ static void test_fault_sigbus(int fd, size_t accessible_size, size_t map_size)
TEST_EXPECT_SIGBUS(memset(mem, val, map_size));

+ mem[accessible_size] = 0xdd;

for (i = 0; i < accessible_size; i++)
TEST_ASSERT_EQ(READ_ONCE(mem[i]), val);
And got

Unexpected SIGBUS (7)
I expected the line number to be 185 but the report says 183. Not sure
if this is a compiler issue or something caused by macros, or if it's
because of signals mess with the tracking of instruction execution.
Either way, this is a very useful test feature, thanks!
