+7.2 KVM_CAP_S390_USER_SIGP
+
+Architectures: s390
+Parameters: none
+
+This capability controls which SIGP orders will be handled completely in user
+space. With this capability enabled, all fast orders will be handled completely
+in the kernel:
+- SENSE
+- SENSE RUNNING
+- EXTERNAL CALL
+- EMERGENCY SIGNAL
+- CONDITIONAL EMERGENCY SIGNAL
+
+All other orders will be handled completely in user space.
+
+Only privileged operation exceptions will be checked for in the kernel (or even
+in the hardware prior to interception). If this capability is not enabled, the
+old way of handling SIGP orders is used (partially in kernel and user space).

+1.3. ATTRIBUTE KVM_S390_VM_MEM_LIMIT_SIZE
+Parameters: in attr->addr the address for the new limit of guest memory
+Returns: -EFAULT if the given address is not accessible
+ -EINVAL if the virtual machine is of type UCONTROL
+ -E2BIG if the given guest memory is to big for that machine
+ -EBUSY if a vcpu is already defined
+ -ENOMEM if not enough memory is available for a new shadow guest mapping
+ 0 otherwise
+
+Allows userspace to query the actual limit and set a new limit for
+the maximum guest memory size. The limit will be rounded up to
+2048 MB, 4096 GB, 8192 TB respectively, as this limit is governed by
+the number of page table levels.
