90 facilities of POWER7 (and later) processors, meaning that
91 guest operating systems will run at full hardware speed
92 using supervisor and user modes. However, this also means
93 that KVM is not usable under PowerVM (pHyp), is only usable
Thomas Huth129fd422015-05-22 11:41:01 +020094 on POWER7 or later processors, and cannot emulate a
