[PATCH 03/10] KVM: PPC: Check privilege level on SPRs

Alexander Graf agraf at suse.de
Wed Aug 10 02:31:41 EST 2011


We have 3 privilege levels: problem state, supervisor state and hypervisor
state. Each of them can access different SPRs, so we need to check on every
SPR if it's accessible in the respective mode.
