*snip*How can we be changing the meaning of HCALL numbers without breaking all existing usages?The changed one being changed here were never used by linux or implemented by either hypervisor.
OK. Please say so in the change log so that it's clear it's not a behaviour change.

Where are these hypervisor calls documented?In an internal spec from one the phyp guys. I have been complaining about it not being open (or merged into PAPR at the very least), but it doesn't look like there's been any movement there.
Please send a patch for Documentation/powerpc/ describing the API for the hypercalls we're using. cheers
