Paolo, Seems we do not need new KVM_EXIT_* again from below thomas' new patchset:
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/people/tglx/devel.git x86/fpu-kvm
So the selftest stll need support KVM_GET_MSR/KVM_SET_MSR for MSR_IA32_XFD
and MSR_IA32_XFD_ERR? If yes, we only do some read/write test with vcpu_set_msr()/
vcpu_get_msr() from new selftest tool? or do wrmsr from guest side and check this value
from selftest side?
I checked some msr selftest reference code, tsc_msrs_test.c, which maybe better for this
reference. If you have better suggestion, please share it to me. thanks!
