Adding PV virtualization support was only a matter of time so here it is. The biggest problem that needed solving was having the SE header as a separate file. The genprotimg tool generates the header and adds a short bit of code to the image which will put the guest into PV mode via the diagnose 308 PV subcodes. We don't have and want an emulation for the diagnose so we don't support this way of starting a PV guest. Therefore we needed a new tool that generates the PV image separate from the SE header so we can link both as binary blobs. Marc created this tool by writing a library which lets users create a SE header and has bindings to multiple languages. Unfortunately we didn't yet have time to upstream this but we plan to publish it once we find some. The first PV snippet test checks the "easy" diagnose calls 0x44, 0x9c, 0x288 and 0x500. We check register contents and responses to PGM injects. A huge thanks goes out to Steffen and Marc who helped me make this possible.
