PowerVM will not arbitrarily oversubscribe or stop guests, page out the guest kernel text to a NFS volume connected by carrier pigeon to abacus based storage, etc., as a KVM host might. So PowerVM guests are not likely to be killed by the hard lockup watchdog in normal operation, even with shared processor LPARs which still get a minimum allotment of CPU time. Enable the hard lockup detector by default on !KVM guests, which we will assume is PowerVM. It has been useful in finding problems on bare metal kernels.

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.
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.
