Re: [PATCH v3 1/4] KVM: selftests: arm64: Report set_id_reg reads of test registers as tests

Hi Mark,

On 12/19/25 19:28, Mark Brown wrote:

Currently when we run guest code to validate that the values we wrote to the registers are seen by the guest we assert that these values match using a KVM selftests level assert, resulting in unclear diagnostics if the test fails. Replace this assert with reporting a kselftest test per register.

In order to support getting the names of the registers we repaint the array of ID_ registers to store the names and open code the rest.

Looks like an improvement to me.
