There are extra properties for accelerators to enable the specific
features. For example, the dirty ring for KVM accelerator can be
enabled by "-accel kvm,dirty-ring-size=65536". Unfortuntely, the
extra properties for the accelerators aren't supported. It makes
it's impossible to test the combination of KVM and dirty ring
as the following error message indicates.

Allow to specify extra properties for accelerators. With this, the
"its-migration" can be tested for the combination of KVM and dirty
ring.

The key words "kvm-unit-tests" has been missed in the subject. Sorry for
the confusion and I won't resend it to see if Drew has more comments.

Thanks,

I'd rather not do this. I think get_qemu_accelerator can be changed to
just set ACCEL and ACCEL_PROPS without echo'ing anything. Only arm/run
needs to be reworked a bit to not use $accel. The other architectures
were already just setting ACCEL to the output of the function anyway.
But, when reworking arm/run make sure not to break the purpose of
commit c7d6c7f00e7c ("arm/run: Use TCG with qemu-system-arm on arm64
systems"), which is what introduced $accel. I'm pretty sure the way
this patch is currently done would break it.

To be clear,

 # ACCEL and ACCEL_PROPS may or may not be set
 set_qemu_accelerator
 # Now ACCEL and maybe ACCEL_PROPS are set

(Note my subtle change of the function name, changing get to set.)

Thanks,
drew
