+7.26 KVM_CAP_PPC_RPT_INVALIDATE
+-------------------------------
+
+:Capability: KVM_CAP_PPC_RPT_INVALIDATE
+:Architectures: ppc
+:Type: vm
+
+This capability indicates that the kernel is capable of handling
+H_RPT_INVALIDATE hcall.
+
+In order to enable the use of H_RPT_INVALIDATE in the guest,
+user space might have to advertise it for the guest. For example,
+IBM pSeries (sPAPR) guest starts using it if "hcall-rpt-invalidate" is
+present in the "ibm,hypertas-functions" device-tree property.
+
+This capability is enabled for hypervisors on platforms like POWER9
+that support radix MMU.
+
