Subject: [GIT PULL 03/12] KVM: s390: vsie: Allow non-zarch guests
Date: Mon, 13 Apr 2026 12:46:31 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260413104721.203024-4-frankja@linux.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260413104721.203024-1-frankja@linux.ibm.com>

From: Eric Farman <farman@linux.ibm.com>

Linux/KVM runs in z/Architecture-only mode. Although z/Architecture
is built upon a long history of hardware refinements, any other
CPU mode is not permitted.

Allow a userspace to explicitly enable the use of ESA mode for
nested guests, otherwise usage will be rejected.
