+Capability: KVM_CAP_SET_TSS_ADDR
+Architectures: x86
+Type: vm ioctl
+Parameters: unsigned long tss_address (in)
+Returns: 0 on success, -1 on error
+
+This ioctl defines the physical address of a three-page region in the guest
+physical address space.  The region must be within the first 4GB of the
+guest physical address space and must not conflict with any memory slot
+or any mmio address.  The guest may malfunction if it accesses this memory

+documentation when it pops into existence).
