On EPT violation, the exit qualifications may have some undefined bits.

Bit 6 is undefined if "mode-based execute control" is 0.

Bits 9-11 are undefined unless the processor supports advanced VM-exit
information for EPT violations.

Right now on KVM these bits are always undefined inside the VM (i.e., in
an emulated VM-exit). Mask these bits to avoid potential false
indication of failures.

This one should be named EPT_VLT_GUEST_RW, assuming you are naming them
according to the 1-setting of the bits.
Whatever you wish (unless someone else has different preference).

The "DIAGNOSE" macro doesn't check any of these bits, so this masking
seems redundant.
The DIAGNOSE macro is not the one who causes errors. It’s the:

   TEST_EXPECT_EQ(expected_qual, qual);

That comes right after the call to diagnose_ept_violation_qual().

Sorry, I missed that !


Also, don't we need to check for the relevant conditions before masking
the bits ? For example, EPT_VLT_PERM_USER_EX is dependent on "mode-based
execute control" VM-execution control" and the other ones depend on bit 7
and 8 of the Exit Qualification field.
The tests right now do not “emulate” these bits, so the expected
qualification would never have EPT_VLT_PERM_USER_EX (for instance) set. Once
someone implements tests for these bits, he would need to change the
masking.
