From d078eed35de3866cb4af654db87765f53edbacce Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: David Gibson Date: Tue, 3 Feb 2015 16:36:24 +1100 Subject: [PATCH] powerpc: Cleanup KVM emulated load/store endian handling Sometimes the KVM code on powerpc needs to emulate load or store instructions from the guest, which can include both normal and byte reversed forms. We currently (AFAICT) handle this correctly, but some variable names are very misleading. In particular we use "is_bigendian" in several places to actually mean "is the IO the same endian as the host", but we now support little-endian powerpc hosts. This also ties into the misleadingly named ld_le*() and st_le*() functions, which in fact always byteswap, even on an LE host. This patch cleans this up by renaming to more accurate "host_swabbed", and uses the generic swab*() functions instead of the powerpc specific and misleadingly named ld_le*() and st_le*() functions.
