Subject: [PATCH 9/9] powerpc/pseries: Inform the hypervisor we are using EBB regs
Date: Fri, 28 Jun 2013 18:15:18 +1000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1372407319-718-9-git-send-email-michael@ellerman.id.au> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1372407319-718-1-git-send-email-michael@ellerman.id.au>
On LPAR systems we need to inform the hypervisor that we are using the
EBB registers. We do this by setting a bit in the Virtual Processor Area
(VPA) - formerly known as the lppaca.
For now we do this always, ie. we do not dynamically enable/disable.
