From: Daniele Ahmed <ahmeddan@xxxxxxxxxx> If an MSR description is provided as input by the user, run the test against that MSR. This allows the user to run tests on custom MSR's.

I'm extending it with a mode that takes an MSR index and a value to test arbitrary MSR accesses. Signed-off-by: Daniele Ahmed <ahmeddan@xxxxxxxxxx>
I don't understand; is this a debugging tool, or is it meant to be driven by another test suite?
I'm not sure this fits the purpose of kvm-unit-tests very well, though. An alternative is BITS (https://github.com/biosbits/bits/), which is relatively easy to use and comes with Python bindings to RDMSR/WRMSR.
