Ok, I can confirm that with: Version of System Firmware is FW860.70 (SV860_205) (t) FW860.70 (SV860_205) (p) FW860.70 (SV860_205) (b)
Guests now run fine not crashing into the issue they had before. This FW still has: ubuntu@wichita:~$ sudo qemu-system-ppc64 -enable-kvm -nographic -machine pseries-3.1,cap-cfpc=fixed qemu-system-ppc64: Requested safe cache capability level not supported by kvm, try cap-cfpc=workaround The same happens to many other P9 only features, but that is fine. At least broken and workaround work now (and the default without adding an argument).
