[PATCH] selftests/kvm: Use vcpus count instead of hardcoded 0xff in test_icr
Posted by Sukrut Heroorkar 1 day, 21 hours ago
Replace the hardcoded 0xff in test_icr() with the actual number of vcpus
created for the vm. This address the existing TODO and keeps the test
correct if it is ever run with multiple vcpus.

The TODO is stale, it was resolved by commit 376bc1b458c9 ("KVM: selftests: Don't
assume vcpu->id is '0' in xAPIC state test"), I/we just forgot to delete the
comment.

This is wrong/undesirable.  The original code was:

        for (i = vcpu->id + 1; i < 0xff; i++) {
                for (j = 0; j < 8; j++)
                        __test_icr(vm, vcpu, i << (32 + 24) | APIC_INT_ASSERT | (j << 8));
        }

I.e. the _lower_ bound was nr_vcpus+1.  Regardless, as fixed by the aformentioned
commit, using the number of vCPUs in any capacity is simply wrong.  The stale
comment just needs to be deleted.:
