Currently on book3s-hv, the capability KVM_CAP_SPAPR_TCE_VFIO is only available for KVM Guests running on PowerNV and not for the KVM guests running on pSeries hypervisors. This prevents a pSeries L2 guest from leveraging the in-kernel acceleration for H_PUT_TCE_INDIRECT and H_STUFF_TCE hcalls that results in slow startup times for large memory guests. Support for VFIO on pSeries was restored in commit f431a8cde7f1 ("powerpc/iommu: Reimplement the iommu_table_group_ops for pSeries"), making it possible to re-enable this capability on pSeries hosts. This change enables KVM_CAP_SPAPR_TCE_VFIO for nested PAPR guests on pSeries, while maintaining the existing behavior on PowerNV. Booting an L2 guest with 128GB of memory shows an average 11% improvement in startup time.
