I would not complain at all if next time you cc kvm@ mailing list on all
patches too, it would simplify my routine a bit (or just Cc: me if
others object).

Initially, there was an attempt to make some sort of separation between
'internal' and 'external' APIs in KVM selftests but every new selftest I
write proves this separation wrong and I have to either hack-around
something or export some previously-internal APIs. My suggestion would
be to eliminate this separation and just make everything available to
tests.
Another thing is TEST_ASSERT()s inside library routines. Generally,
these are helpful as one doesn't need to check the return value. In some
cases, however, we'd like to check that something fails and then the
usual way seems to be creating a pair of functions like:
int __do_something()
{
int r = try_doing_something();
return r;
}
void do_something()
{
int r = __do_something()
TEST_ASSERT(r == 0, "Doing something failed! %d", r);
}
This works but maybe there's a better way?
FWIW, I've looked at some of the tests which are more familiar to me
(evmcs_test, hyperv_features, ...) and the end result looks much better
indeed, thanks! I have a couple more new tests in the queue (Hyper-V IPI
and TLB flush, see "KVM: x86: hyper-v: Fine-grained TLB flush + Direct
TLB flush feature"), we'll have to syncronize one way or another.

You'll have to check with test authors that none of them get paid for
LoC by their respective employers :-)
