I'm aware. Unfortunately we don't have a decision yet about which parts
of the protected virtualization architecture are going to be PoP
material.

You can get some more context immediately by having a look at Martin's
features branch and looking at the s390/protvirt  and s390/uv patches.

I will try to provide more background information for v1. But having
a remotely complete and reliable documentation will take some time. What
I can offer at the moment is answers to specific questions.

Regards,
Halil
