@foone searching "qemu fault injection" finds a number of relevant papers

@foone Looks like you can used options like memory-backend-file to make qemu use shared memory for all of the VM's memory? Then you should be able to mutilate the memory from another process?

@foone That reminds me of FAUmachine. A university research project with focus on fault injection into VMs. Haven't looked at their stuff in uhhh, 2 decades though. 😅

@foone I've done something very similar accidentally (and boy was that confusing to debug), should be pretty easy

Making it follow the same failure patterns as real hardware might be tricky, but random stuck bits should be straightforward
