Subject: [PATCH v3 1/7] Documentation: s390-diag.rst: make diag500 a generic KVM hypercall
Date: Fri, 25 Oct 2024 16:14:46 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20241025141453.1210600-2-david@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20241025141453.1210600-1-david@redhat.com>
Let's make it a generic KVM hypercall, allowing other subfunctions to
be more independent of virtio.
While at it, document that unsupported/unimplemented subfunctions result
in a SPECIFICATION exception.
This is a preparation for documenting a new hypercall.
