For IBM PowerVM Hypervisor versions FW1020.00 through FW1020.30, update to a version outside of this range to resolve the issue. For IBM PowerVM Hypervisor versions FW1030.00 through FW1030.10, update to a version outside of this range to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to SRIOV virtual functions to minimize the risk of exploitation.
