The next commit will introduce a member to the kvmppc_vcore struct which
references MAX_SMT_THREADS which is defined in kvm_book3s_asm.h, however
this file isn't included in kvm_host.h directly. Thus compiling for
certain platforms such as pmac32_defconfig and ppc64e_defconfig with KVM

The struct kvmppc_vcore is a structure used to store various information
about a virtual core for a kvm guest. The runnable_threads element of the
struct provides a list of all of the currently runnable vcpus on the core

This patch introduces new halt polling functionality into the kvm_hv kernel

scheduling itself out.
When all of the runnable vcpus on a vcore have ceded (and thus the vcore is

Some wording on why you cannot use the common code might be useful.

Hi all,
I have got two boards MVME5100 (MPC7410 cpu) and MVME7100 (MPC8641D
cpu) for which I use the same cross-compiler (ppc7400).
I tested these against kernel HEAD to found that these don't boot
anymore (PID 1 crash).
Bisecting results in first offending commit:

Introduce a new KVM capability, KVM_CAP_PPC_HTM, that can be queried to
determine if a PowerPC KVM guest should use HTM (Hardware Transactional
Memory).
This will be used by QEMU to populate the pa-features bits in the
guest's device tree.
