ibm,receive-hvpipe-msg RTAS call is used to receive data from the source (Ex: Hardware Management Console) over the hypervisor pipe. The hypervisor will signal the OS via a Hypervisor Pipe Event external interrupt when data is available to be received from the pipe and the event message has the source ID and the message type such as payload or closed pipe to the specific source. The hypervisor will not generate another interrupt for the next payload until the partition reads the previous payload. It means the hvpipe is blocked and will not deliver other events for any source. The maximum data length of 4048 bytes is supported with this RTAS call right now. The user space uses read() to receive data from HMC which issues ibm,receive-hvpipe-msg RTAS and the kernel returns the buffer length (including papr_hvpipe_hdr length) to the user space for success or RTAS failure error. If the message is regarding the pipe closed, kernel just returns the papr_hvpipe_hdr with flags = HVPIPE_LOST_CONNECTION and expects the user space to close FD for the corresponding source. ibm,receive-hvpipe-msg RTAS call passes the buffer and returns the source ID from where this payload is received and the payload length.

README
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 reStructuredText 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.
