Similar to other comments, please spell this out.  Whatever "OFS" stands for, it
isn't common knowledge (unless I'm way out of the loop).

Eh, I don't know that I would

*sigh*

X86_PROPERTY_MAX_VIRT_ADDR, or even better, vcpu->vm->va_bits.

(a) None of this is PMU specific.  (b) Selftests don't support LA57 (yet).
(c) IMO there's no reason to get this fancy.  Just hardcode a value that's
guaranteed to be non-canonical and call it good.

E.g.

#define NONCANONICAL	(0xaaaULL << 48)

That way the "bad" value can be used from the guest directly.

Or if you want to handle LA57 right now and verify that the guest can set values
that are canonical for LA57 but not for LA48, something like

static inline vm_vaddr_t get_noncanonical_address(bool is_la57)
{
	return is_la57 ? BIT(57) : BIT(48);
}

and then the guest can invoke it by reading and passing in the current CR4, i.e.
still doesn't require splitting logic across the guest and host.

GUEST_ASSERT(vector == GP_VECTOR);

Aaron's fancy printf() stuff is coming, and even without that, splitting logic
across the guest and host is generally a bad idea as it makes it much harder to
understand what the test does.

Reverse xmas tree.

Drop the comment, the assert covers everything.

Eh, I would just do vcpu_set_msr() and let it assert for you.

I don't understand what this comment is trying to say.  The below tests that
writing MSR_IA32_DS_AREA *fails*, not succeeds.

Print the actual "bad" value, and be more descriptive, i.e. state *why* '1' is
a bad value.

Same comment here.
