POWER9 DD1 has an erratum where writing to the TBU40 register, which is used to apply an offset to the timebase, can cause the timebase to lose counts. This results in the timebase on some CPUs getting out of sync with other CPUs, which then results in misbehaviour of the timekeeping code. To work around the problem, we make KVM ignore the timebase offset for all guests on POWER9 DD1 machines. This means that live migration cannot be supported on POWER9 DD1 machines.

README
Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
