[PATCH v3 8/9] spapr: PEF: block migration
Posted by David Gibson 5 years, 3 months ago
We haven't yet implemented the fairly involved handshaking that will be
needed to migrate PEF protected guests.  For now, just use a migration
blocker so we get a meaningful error if someone attempts this (this is the
same approach used by AMD SEV).

Do you expect this to happen if people run with -cpu host ?

Uh.. I don't really understand the question.  What's the connection
between cpu model and migration blocking?
