Subject: [PATCH 0/4] KVM: selftests: Improve error handling when opening files
Date: Fri, 16 May 2025 14:59:05 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250516215909.2551628-1-seanjc@google.com> (raw)

Improve selftests' error reporting when opening a file fails, e.g. so that
failure to access a module param spits out a message about KVM not being
loaded, instead of a cryptic message about a param not being supported.

Sean Christopherson (4):
  KVM: selftests: Verify KVM is loaded when getting a KVM module param
  KVM: selftests: Add __open_path_or_exit() variant to provide extra
    help info
  KVM: selftests: Play nice with EACCES errors in open_path_or_exit()
  KVM: selftests: Print a more helpful message for EACCESS in access
    tracking test
