Hi, Can anyone give some hints on how to run a single test on the kselftest framework? The reason that I want such support is because I have to run test cases inside emulator, which is very slow. Per the kselftest documents, I can run kvm selftests with "make -C tools/testing/selftests TARGETS=kvm run_tests", but it does not provide a mechanism to run a single test in KVM subsystem. It takes a very long time to finish the KVM subset testing inside the slow emulator while I'm only trying to replace/add one testcase. Currently I modify the code like below, to run only a single test. Not sure if there is a more generic way to do that. If no such mechanism and there are more people have similar need, is it possible to add it? I'm more than happy to contribute with guide.
