Hi Po-Hsu,
what do you mean by "introduced by the old qemu version"?
I assume you are testing new kernels by the kernel-da-key tag?
So do you mean "the new (maybe HWE) kernel fails this test on xenial" - and 
your assumption is that it triggers there because qemu doesn't have the right 
fixes to be able to handle it?
If so we should mirror this bug to IBM so they can assist in picking the right 
ppc patches needed.

Title:
  spapr_hcall from ubuntu_kvm_unit_test failed on ppc64el with Z-hwe
  kernel

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged
Status in qemu package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  kernel: 4.10.0-33.37~16.04.1

  I think this issue was introduced by the old qemu version (similar
  issue was spotted on Xenial before), will need to investigate this
  further.
