CPU model features: 1. The KVM_S390_VM_CPU_FEAT_AP CPU model feature indicates that AP facilities are installed. This feature will be enabled by the kernel only if the AP facilities are installed on the linux host. This feature must be turned on from userspace to access AP devices from the KVM guest. The QEMU command line to turn this feature looks something like this: qemu-system-s390x ... -cpu xxx,ap=on This feature will be supported for zEC12 and newer CPU models. The feature will not be supported for older models due to testability issues. CPU model facilities: 1. The S390_FEAT_AP_QUERY_CONFIG_INFO feature indicates the AP Query Configuration Information (QCI) facility is installed. This feature will be enabled by the kernel only if the QCI is installed on the host. 2. The S390_FEAT_AP_FACILITY_TEST feature indicates that the AP Facility Test (APFT) facility is installed. This feature will be enabled by the kernel only if the APFT facility is installed on the host.

We may know that QCI is an AP function, but most administrators will have no idea. Prepending the 'ap' informs that QCI is an AP function related to the CPU model feature for AP.QCI is the official name and will be refered as this in the official documentation (if it is). Most admin will use libvirt anyway and the one which will try to use qemu will look for apqci in the official documentation and will not find it. I do not think it is a good idea, but technically does not change anything. Keep my RB even you stay by apqci or change for qci.For the SIE features I decided to not name them sie_$feat So we have e.g. siif instead of sie_siif. I primarily did this to have shorter feature names and the rational was that the short version (siif) was sufficient to guess the full name and where it belongs to. e.g. siif == "Shared IPTE-interlock facility" (we sticked to the f in there, as siif was a commonly used term if I remember correctly). There is only one shared ipte-interlock facility. "qci" (or Query Configuration facility) does _not_ indicate to which part of the system this belongs. zPCI? sclp? ap? This should be "apqci" or "qapcf". Or "ap_qci". "qci", on its own is not sufficient in my opinion.
It is settled then ... I'll stick with apqci
