I do not see why what I propose will prevent you to put all tests into main.

vmx_run() will looks like that:

   vmlaunch
   while(1) {
       vmresume
         <---- vmexit jumps here
       switch(exit reason) {
          case reason1:
          break;
          case reason2:
          break;
          case HLT
          return;
       }
   }

That's what I am missing. How do one writes more tests now?

I was thinking about interface like that:

guest_func_test1()
{
}

tes1t_exit_handlers[] = {test1_handle_hlt, test1_handle_exception, ....}

main()
{

   init_vmcs(); /* generic stuff */
   init_vmcs_test1(); /* test1 related stuff */
   r = run_in_guest(guest_func_test1, test1_exit_handlers);
   report("test1", r);
}
