** Description changed: + [ Impact ] + + Enable IBM Test Accelerator for Z. + + [ Fix ] + + Backport the following patches from upstream: + - 2623c96f1172 KVM: s390: only deliver service interrupt with payload + - b0ad874d9852 KVM: s390: vsie: Allow non-zarch guests + - a9640e2eb711 KVM: s390: vsie: Disable some bits when in ESA mode + - c0dcada088ff KVM: s390: vsie: Accommodate ESA prefix pages + - 4aebd7d5c72f KVM: s390: Add KVM capability for ESA mode guests + + [ Test Plan ] + + Launch a TAZ instance and confirm it can start + and run ESA mode nested guests without generating program exceptions + in either the TAZ instance or its guests. + + [ Regression Potential] + + While the ESA mode enablement is fully opt-in and poses no risk + to existing workloads, the prefix bitfield adjustment + and the suppression of zero-payload SCLP interrupts are global changes + affecting all KVM/s390 guests. + Either could impact existing z/Architecture guests. + + --- + On Ubuntu 26.04, the IBM Test Accelerator for Z (TAZ) is not working, i.e. it results in program exceptions within the TAZ instance and/or the guests within it.
