Currently guest kernel doesn't handle TAR facility unavailable and it always runs with TAR bit on. PR KVM will lazily enable TAR. TAR is not a frequent-use register and it is not included in SVCPU struct. Due to the above, the checkpointed TAR val might be a bogus TAR val. To solve this issue, we will make vcpu->arch.fscr tar bit consistent with shadow_fscr when TM is enabled. At the end of emulating treclaim., the correct TAR val need to be loaded into the register if FSCR_TAR bit is on. At the beginning of emulating trechkpt., TAR needs to be flushed so that the right tar val can be copied into tar_tm. Tested with: tools/testing/selftests/powerpc/tm/tm-tar tools/testing/selftests/powerpc/ptrace/ptrace-tm-tar (remove DSCR/PPR related testing).

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
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.
