The topic line is a bit hard to parse. IIUC there are basically two
things in this series:
1) Implement / fix TCG emulation of TCG hypervisor facilities, so that
a TCG powernv machine can use them to run KVM guests.
2) Have the pseries machine under TCG implement the paravirtualized
interfaces to allow nested virtualizationm therefore allowing TCG
pseries machines to run KVM guests
Is that right?
