+ This capability enables a guest to set information about its control program
6183
+ (i.e. guest kernel type and version). The information is helpful during
6184
+ system/firmware service events, providing additional data about the guest
6185
+ environments running on the machine.
6186
+
6187
+ The information is associated with the DIAGNOSE 0x318 instruction, which sets
6188
+ an 8-byte value consisting of a one-byte Control Program Name Code (CPNC) and
6189
+ a 7-byte Control Program Version Code (CPVC). The CPNC determines what
6190
+ environment the control program is running in (e.g. Linux, z/VM...), and the
6191
+ CPVC is used for information specific to OS (e.g. Linux version, Linux
6192
+ distribution...)
6193
+
6194
+ If this capability is available, then the CPNC and CPVC can be synchronized
6195
+ between KVM and userspace via the sync regs mechanism (KVM_SYNC_DIAG318).
You can’t perform that action at this time.
