Browse Source 
Clarify the fact that 'hv-passthrough' only enables features which are
already known to QEMU and that it overrides all other 'hv-*' settings.

@ -209,8 +209,11 @@ In some cases (e.g. during development) it may make sense to use QEMU in
'pass-through' mode and give Windows guests all enlightenments currently
supported by KVM. This pass-through mode is enabled by "hv-passthrough" CPU
flag.
Note: enabling this flag effectively prevents migration as supported features
may differ between target and destination.
Note: "hv-passthrough" flag only enables enlightenments which are known to QEMU
(have corresponding "hv-*" flag) and copies "hv-spinlocks="/"hv-vendor-id="
values from KVM to QEMU. "hv-passthrough" overrides all other "hv-*" settings on
the command line. Also, enabling this flag effectively prevents migration as the
list of enabled enlightenments may differ between target and destination hosts.
