    KVM: PPC: Make shared struct aka magic page guest endian · 5deb8e7a
    Alexander Graf 提交于
    The shared (magic) page is a data structure that contains often used
    supervisor privileged SPRs accessible via memory to the user to reduce
    the number of exits we have to take to read/write them.
    
    When we actually share this structure with the guest we have to maintain
    it in guest endianness, because some of the patch tricks only work with
    native endian load/store operations.
    
    Since we only share the structure with either host or guest in little
    endian on book3s_64 pr mode, we don't have to worry about booke or book3s hv.
    
    For booke, the shared struct stays big endian. For book3s_64 hv we maintain
    the struct in host native endian, since it never gets shared with the guest.
    
    For book3s_64 pr we introduce a variable that tells us which endianness the
    shared struct is in and route every access to it through helper inline
    functions that evaluate this variable.
