[Qemu-ppc] [QEMU-PPC] [PATCH V3 0/6] target/ppc: Rework spapr_caps


From: Suraj Jitindar Singh
Subject: [Qemu-ppc] [QEMU-PPC] [PATCH V3 0/6] target/ppc: Rework spapr_caps
Date: Mon, 15 Jan 2018 17:32:29 +1100

The following patch series adds 3 new tristate capabilities and their
associated handling.

A new H-Call is implemented which a guest will use to query the
requirement for and availability of workarounds for certain cpu
behaviours.

Applies on top of David's tree: ppc-for-2.12

The first patch from the previous revision has already been merged:
hw/ppc/spapr_caps: Rework spapr_caps to use uint8 internal representation

The main changes to V3 are:
- Split up the addition of the tristate caps into 5 patches
  - 1/6 query the caps from the hypervisor and parse the new return format
  - 2/6 add support for the new caps
  - 3-5/6 add each of the three new caps
- Patch 6/6 Unchanged
