I presume you'll need to have permissions to /dev/kvm to trigger it? Could you clarify the scope, is it just called during emulation with KVM_PR? Balbir Singh.

kvm_ppc_mmu_book3s_32/64 xlat() logs "KVM can't copy data" error upon failing to copy user data to kernel space. This floods kernel log once such fails occur in short time period. Ratelimit this error to avoid flooding kernel logs upon copy data failures.
