KVM selftests embed the guest "image" as a function in the test itself and extract the guest code at runtime by manually parsing the elf headers. The parsing is very simple and doesn't supporting fancy things like position independent executables. Recent versions of gcc enable pie by default, which results in triple fault shutdowns in the guest due to the virtual address in the headers not matching up with the virtual address retrieved from the function pointer.
