This patch series introduces a backend for kvm to run on IBM System z machines that uses the mainframe's sie virtualization capability. This work runs 64bit guests on z800/z890/z900/z990/z9/z10 class machines with a 64bit linux host. Userspace will follow once we're done brushing it over. The patch queue consists of the following patches, which can be applied in sequence on top of kvm.git

The 5-patch series to follow this email extends KVM-hypervisor and Linux guest running on KVM-hypervisor to support pv-ticket spinlocks, based on Xen's implementation. One hypercall is introduced in KVM hypervisor,that allows a vcpu to kick another vcpu out of halt state. The blocking of vcpu is done using halt() in (lock_spinning) slowpath. Note: 1) patch is based on 3.4-rc3 + ticketlock

This series replaces the existing paravirtualized spinlock mechanism with a paravirtualized ticketlock mechanism. The series provides implementation for both Xen and KVM. Changes in V9: - Changed spin_threshold to 32k to avoid excess halt exits that are causing undercommit degradation (after PLE handler improvement). - Added kvm_irq_delivery_to_apic (suggested by Gleb) - Optimized halt exit
