91 facilities of POWER7 (and later) processors, meaning that
92 guest operating systems will run at full hardware speed
93 using supervisor and user modes. However, this also means
94 that KVM is not usable under PowerVM (pHyp), is only usable
Thomas Huth129fd422015-05-22 11:41:01 +020095 on POWER7 or later processors, and cannot emulate a

110 This is not as fast as using hypervisor mode, but works on
