Subject: [PATCH v3 09/21] KVM: selftests: Extract guts of nested TSC scaling test to helper function
Date: Wed, 30 Sep 2026 10:36:23 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260930173635.3362655-10-seanjc@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260930173635.3362655-1-seanjc@google.com>

Extract the guts of the nested TSC scaling test to a separate helper in
anticipation of extending the test beyond its single "scale L1 up, L2 down"
testcase.

No functional change intended.
