+==========================
+ELF Note PowerPC Namespace
+==========================
+
+The PowerPC namespace in an ELF Note of the kernel binary is used to store
+capabilities and information which can be used by a bootloader or userland.
+
+Types and Descriptors
+---------------------
+
+The types to be used with the "PowerPC" namesapce are defined in the
+include/uapi/asm/elfnote.h
+
+	1) PPC_ELFNOTE_CAPABILITIES
+
+Define the capabilities supported/required by the kernel. This type uses a
+bitmap as "descriptor" field. Each bit is described below:
+
+- Ultravisor-capable bit (PowerNV only).
+
+	#define PPCCAP_ULTRAVISOR_BIT (1 << 0)
+
+	Indicate that the powerpc kernel binary knows how to run in an
+	ultravisor-enabled system.
+
+	In an ultravisor-enabled system, some machine resources are now controlled
+	by the ultravisor. If the kernel is not ultravisor-capable, but it ends up
+	being run on a machine with ultravisor, the kernel will probably crash
+	trying to access ultravisor resources. For instance, it may crash in early
+	boot trying to set the partition table entry 0.
+
+	In an ultravisor-enabled system, a bootloader could warn the user or prevent
+   	the kernel from being run if the PowerPC ultravisor capability doesn't exist
+	or the Ultravisor-capable bit is not set.
