	  Say Y here to get to see options for using your Linux host to run
	  other operating systems inside virtual machines (guests).
	  This option alone does not add any kernel code.

	  If you say N, all options in this submenu will be skipped and
	  disabled.

	select CMA
	---help---
	  Support running unmodified book3s_64 guest kernels in
	  virtual machines on POWER7 and PPC970 processors that have
	  hypervisor mode available to the host.

	  If you say Y here, KVM will use the hardware virtualization
	  facilities of POWER7 (and later) processors, meaning that
	  guest operating systems will run at full hardware speed
	  using supervisor and user modes.  However, this also means
	  that KVM is not usable under PowerVM (pHyp), is only usable
	  on POWER7 (or later) processors and PPC970-family processors,
	  and cannot emulate a different processor from the host processor.

	  If unsure, say N.

config KVM_BOOK3S_64_PR
	tristate "KVM support without using hypervisor mode in host"
	depends on KVM_BOOK3S_64
	select KVM_BOOK3S_PR_POSSIBLE
	---help---
	  Support running guest kernels in virtual machines on processors
	  without using hypervisor mode in the host, by running the
	  guest in user mode (problem state) and emulating all
	  privileged instructions and registers.

	  This is not as fast as using hypervisor mode, but works on
	  machines where hypervisor mode is not available or not usable,
	  and can emulate processors that are different from the host
	  processor, including emulating 32-bit processors on a 64-bit
	  host.

config KVM_BOOK3S_HV_EXIT_TIMING
	bool "Detailed timing for hypervisor real-mode code"
	depends on KVM_BOOK3S_HV_POSSIBLE && DEBUG_FS
	---help---
	  Calculate time taken for each vcpu in the real-mode guest entry,
	  exit, and interrupt handling code, plus time spent in the guest
	  and in nap mode due to idle (cede) while other threads are still
	  in the guest.  The total, minimum and maximum times in nanoseconds
	  together with the number of executions are reported in debugfs in
	  kvm/vm#/vcpu#/timings.  The overhead is of the order of 30 - 40
	  ns per exit on POWER8.

	  If unsure, say N.

config KVM_BOOKE_HV
	bool

config KVM_EXIT_TIMING
	bool "Detailed exit timing"
	depends on KVM_E500V2 || KVM_E500MC
	---help---
	  Calculate elapsed time for every exit/enter cycle. A per-vcpu
	  report is available in debugfs kvm/vm#_vcpu#_timing.
	  The overhead is relatively small, however it is not recommended for
	  production environments.

	  If unsure, say N.

	select HAVE_KVM_MSI
	help
	  Enable support for emulating MPIC devices inside the
          host kernel, rather than relying on userspace to emulate.
          Currently, support is limited to certain versions of
          Freescale's MPIC implementation.

	  IBM POWER (pSeries) servers.
