From 07197fd05fa3eb2e8a5aae92938ca5d07bcac9fc Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: David Hildenbrand Date: Fri, 30 Jan 2015 16:01:38 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] KVM: s390: don't load kvm without virtualization support If we don't have support for virtualization (SIE), e.g. when running under a hypervisor not supporting execution of the SIE instruction, we should immediately abort loading the kvm module, as the SIE instruction cannot be enabled dynamically. Currently, the SIE instructions fails with an exception on a non-SIE host, resulting in the guest making no progress, instead of failing hard.
