The 'chip_id' field of the XIVE CPU structure is used to choose a target for a source located on the same chip. For that, the XIVE driver queries the chip identifier from the "ibm,chip-id" property and compares it to a 'src_chip' field identifying the chip of a source. This information is only available on the PowerNV platform, 'src_chip' being assigned to XIVE_INVALID_CHIP_ID under pSeries. The "ibm,chip-id" property is also not available on all platforms. It was first introduced on PowerNV and later, under QEMU for pSeries/KVM. However, the property is not part of PAPR and does not exist under pSeries/PowerVM. Assign 'chip_id' to XIVE_INVALID_CHIP_ID by default and let the PowerNV platform override the value with the "ibm,chip-id" property.

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.
