This is to reserve a capablity number for upcoming support of VFIO-IOMMU DMA operations in real mode. The last ioctl in the group which KVM_CREATE_SPAPR_TCE_IOMMU is added to is 0xac, the next two numbers are taken - 0xad for KVM_KVMCLOCK_CTRL and0xac was also taken by KVM_SET_ONE_REG :(quoted
0xae for KVM_ARM_VCPU_INIT. So the KVM_CREATE_SPAPR_TCE_IOMMU ioclt gets 0xaf.

Sorry about that :(. The ioctl exists for a while now, but with v8 patch I imaging your patch series predates it.
So my stuff is not going to upstream again. Heh. Ok. I'll implement it.
Thanks! Should I keep KVM_CAP_SPAPR_MULTITCE capability patch or can I drop it for now? -- Gleb.
