[PATCH v2] KVM: selftests: Add guest-side test for AMD HWCR.McStatusWrEn
Posted by Costas Argyris 1 month ago
Add a guest-side test to msrs_test that verifies HWCR.McStatusWrEn
(bit 18) correctly gates non-zero writes to MCi_STATUS MSRs.  With
the bit set, the write must succeed and read back unchanged.  With
the bit clear, the write must raise #GP and leave the register
unmodified.

This exercises can_set_mci_status(), which is only reachable via the
guest WRMSR path (host_initiated=false).

v1 -> v2:
 - Fold test into msrs_test.c
 - Reuse existing helpers for the guest code
 - Drop unnecessary while loop

I tried fitting into the existing __msrs[] table but it doesn't seem to
map well — the proposed test has one MSR (HWCR) gating writes to another
(MCi_STATUS), which doesn't seem to fit the per-MSR CPUID-feature model.
Tried a self-contained function alongside test_msrs() instead.
