     - `result_index`: Specify the index of the result in the extracted output. This field is aligned with `awk`'s action.
     - `description`: Provide a brief description of the benchmark.
     - `title`: Set the title of the benchmark.
+    - `benchmark_type`: This parameter defines the type of benchmark to be executed. The default value is `guest_only`. The available options include `guest_only`, and `host_guest`.
+      - `guest_only`: Use this option when the benchmark is intended solely for the guest environment.
+      - `host_guest`: Choose this option when the benchmark involves both the host and guest environments. When using this option, you will need to define your own `host.sh` and `bench_runner.sh` scripts to handle the host-side operations and benchmark execution.
 
     For example, if the benchmark output is "Syscall average latency: 1000 ns", the `search_pattern` is "Syscall average latency:", and the `result_index` is "4". `awk` will extract "1000" as the benchmark result. See the `awk` [manual](https://www.gnu.org/software/gawk/manual/gawk.html#Getting-Started) for more information.
