From: Pierre Morel <pmorel@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> When we intercept a DIAG_9C from the guest we verify that the target real CPU associated with the virtual CPU designated by the guest is running and if not we forward the DIAG_9C to the target real CPU. To avoid a diag9c storm we allow a maximal rate of diag9c forwarding. The rate is calculated as a count per second defined as a new parameter of the s390 kvm module: diag9c_forwarding_hz . The default value of 0 is to not forward diag9c.
