26 Support hosting paravirtualized guest machines using the SIE
27 virtualization capability on the mainframe. This should work
28 on any 64bit machine.

30 This module provides access to the hardware capabilities through
31 a character device node named /dev/kvm.
32
33 To compile this as a module, choose M here: the module
34 will be called kvm.
