Fake test data dumps for certain architectures
==============================================
For some architectures it was impossible or impractical to fetch real capability
dumps. To ensure coverate of certain cases the dumps were collected from
corresponding binaries running on a different architecture.
Capabilities dumps for the following architectures are usually produced on real
hardware:
- x86_64
- aarch64
- ppc64
- s390x
In most other cases, x86_64 will be used as the host architecture. A fake caps
dump can be usually spotted by absence of KVM support.
