From the architecture:
* if spr 0 =0:
- if MSR PR =1: Hypervisor Emulation Assistance
interrupt
- if MSR PR =0: Hypervisor Emulation Assistance
interrupt for SPRs 0, 4, 5, and 6 and no opera-
tion (i.e. the instruction is treated as a no-op)
for all other SPRs
* if spr 0 =1:
- if MSR PR =1: Privileged Instruction type Pro-
gram interrupt
- if MSR PR =0: no operation (i.e. the instruction
is treated as a no-op)
IE. SPRs with 0x10 are supervisor priv, so PR access will trap to
the OS, whether they are implemented or not.
Otherwise, you get the "system illegal isntruction" handler which
is turned into an HVPRIV on all recent processors (the exception code
will turn that back into a 0x700 if the processor doesn't support
HVPRIV).
It was done this way so that an OS (guest) can context switch a bunch
of supervisor SPRs without having to test if they individually exist
on a given processor.
