And AFAICS you don't need to break that line. cheers -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kvm-ppc" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html

Oh, why is that? I'm happy to respin the patch I'm just curious. (I did it that way becuase that seems to be the way the other flags are used, e.g. CPU_FTR_ALTIVEC). If I read the code correctly, using CPU_FTR_TM_COMP will work fine: it should cause the cpu_has_feature() test to always return false if CPU_FTR_TM_COMP is 0. > And AFAICS you don't need to break that line. Sure, I'll un-split it when I respin. > cheers Cheers, Sam. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kvm-ppc" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html

Introduce a new KVM capability, KVM_CAP_PPC_HTM, that can be queried to determine if a PowerPC KVM guest should use HTM (Hardware Transactional Memory). This will be used by QEMU to populate the pa-features bits in the guest's device tree.
