PowerISA defines a compatibility mode for server POWERPC CPUs which is supported by the PCR special register which is hypervisor privileged. To support this mode for guests, SPAPR defines a set of virtual PVRs, one per PowerISA spec version. When a hypervisor needs a guest to work in a compatibility mode, it puts a virtual PVR value into @cpu-version property of a CPU node. This introduces a "compat" CPU option which defines maximal compatibility mode enabled. The supported modes are power6/power7/power8. This does not change the existing behaviour, new property will be used by next patches. Signed-off-by: NAlexey Kardashevskiy <aik@ozlabs.ru> Signed-off-by: NAlexander Graf <agraf@suse.de>
