MSR TS bits can be modified with non-privileged instruction such as tbegin./tend. That means guest can change MSR value "silently" without notifying host. It is necessary to sync the TM bits to host so that host can calculate shadow msr correctly. Note, privileged mode in the guest will always fail transactions so we only take care of problem state mode in the guest. The logic is put into kvmppc_copy_from_svcpu() so that kvmppc_handle_exit_pr() can use correct MSR TM bits even when preemption occurs.

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.
