That's a great point. I'll see about using globals and deriving the
cpu ID to look up args. In your pseudocode below I see you use
arch_get_cpu_id, but I don't believe this function exists in selftests
and I don't have the knowledge off the top of my head to implement it
for s390 and aarch64. Do you have any pointers for implementing such a
function?

wss indeed stands for working set size, but I agree there's no reason
to use it. I'll change guest_memory_bytes to vcpu_memory_bytes
instead.
