88 facilities of POWER7 (and later) processors, meaning that
89 guest operating systems will run at full hardware speed
90 using supervisor and user modes. However, this also means
91 that KVM is not usable under PowerVM (pHyp), is only usable
Paul Mackerras9e368f22011-06-29 00:40:08 +000092 on POWER7 (or later) processors and PPC970-family processors,
