Hi Joe, If IBM does not do the backport, just how much work do you think there is on that whole effort? That list of patches was pretty impressive in my eyes.

The git commands for 4.18 would be: $ git cherry-pick <all from 'kvm/next' list> (112c24d "KVM: s390: CPU model support for AP virtualization" may have a trivial merge conflict with the etoken patch) $ git cherry-pick <all from 'kvms390/next' list> $ git cherry-pick <all from 'ap/zcrypt' list> == Regression Potential == Low to mid: - mid because in summary there are a lot of changes, but low - they are all limited to the s390x architecture - and again limited to KVM/s390x, vfio-ap and the zcrypt (aka ap) driver - Test kernel was built for testting. == Test Case == Setup a system for KVM use on an s390x LPAR that has CryptoExpress (aka crypto-) adapters installed. Verify that the AP bus created a sysfs device for each APQN, like: /sys/devices/ap/card04/04.0006 /sys/devices/ap/card04/04.0047 /sys/devices/ap/card0a/0a.0006 /sys/devices/ap/card0a/0a.0047 Verify the APQN range via the following two sysfs files: /sys/bus/ap/apmask /sys/bus/ap/aqmask Configure and start a guest. More details see: 492a6be ("s390: doc: detailed specifications for AP virtualization") But for that an updated qemu and libvirt should be in place - that's addressed in LP1787405, too. (So this is only the kernel part of that ticket.) __________ Description: Allow kvm to dedicate crypto adapters (and domains) as passthrough devices to a KVM guest such that the hypervisor cannot observe the communication of the guest with the device. This functionality will be contribute to following packages. --kernel, qemu and libvirt. Currently these functions are not finalized and therefore no git-commit are avalable, - kernel > 4.19 - libvirt > 4.6.0 - qemu > 3.0 We will provide these as soon as possible. This request is launched against Ubuntu 18.10 to fulllfil the feature integration process of Canonical. But the main intention is, to get this integrated into 18.04 LTS !!!!!! Thererfore, the backports will be required for both distros.!
