[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 16/27] Implement hcall based RTAS for pSeries machines

2011-03-31 Thread David Gibson
On pSeries machines, operating systems can instantiate "RTAS" (Run-Time Abstraction Services), a runtime component of the firmware which implements a number of low-level, infrequently used operations. On logical partitions under a hypervisor, many of the RTAS functions require hypervisor privilege
