The scv instruction causes an interrupt which can enter the kernel with MSR[EE]=1, thus allowing interrupts to hit at any time. These must not be taken as normal interrupts, because they come from MSR[PR]=0 context, and yet the kernel stack is not yet set up and r13 is not set to the PACA). Treat this as a soft-masked interrupt regardless of the soft masked state. This does not affect behaviour yet, because currently all interrupts are taken with MSR[EE]=0.

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.
