The tests can also be run with QEMU, which requires one more patch to
share the chr-testdev DMA memory with the host. I pushed this and
additional tests here:
https://git.codelinaro.org/linaro/dcap/kvm-unit-tests

Follow the build instructions for QEMU:

Buildroot supports kvm-unit-tests but as standalone scripts. I prefer the
run_tests.sh script, which also enables comparing Realm measurements
between runs:

	./configure --arch=arm64 --cross-prefix=path/to/buildroot/host/bin/aarch64-buildroot-linux-gnu-
	make -j
	# copy everything to the shared directory, then modify config.mak
	sed -i -e "/PRETTY_PRINT_STACKS/s/yes/no/" \
               -e "/ERRATATXT/s/=.*/=errata.txt/"  \
               -e "/HOST/s/=.*/=aarch64/" \
               -e "/ARCH/s/=.*/=arm64/" \
               config.mak

	# Run all realm tests
	ACCEL=kvm MAX_SMP=8 ./run_tests.sh -v -g realms

Thanks,
Jean
