This patch adds a '--sandbox' argument when used in conjuction with a custom
rootfs, it allows running a script or an executable in the guest environment
by using executables and other files from the host.
This is useful when testing code that might cause problems on the host, or
to automate kernel testing since it's now easy to link a kvm tools test
script with 'git bisect run'.

Nice! How do I use this to run trinity sandboxed in a guest?

Assuming you have trinity installed in /usr/bin or something similar in
on the host (you can just 'cp trinity /usr/bin/'), just write this
script:
test-trinity.sh:
#! /bin/bash
trinity --mode=random --quiet -i
and run using:
./kvm run -k [kernel to test] --sandbox test-trinity.sh
Would it not be better to introduce a new command that works like 'perf
stat', for example:
./kvm sandbox -k <kernel to test> -- trinity --mode=random --quiet -i
?
