Fix ppc64 arch specific dump code to support all combinations of little/big
endian hosts/guests. FWIW the current code is broken for altivec registers
when guest and host have a different endianness: these 128-bit registers
are written to guest memory as a two 64-bit entities and we should also swap
them.
Unit testing was done with the following program provided by Tom Musta:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdint.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
int main(int argc, char** argv)
{
__uint128_t v = ((__uint128_t)0x0001020304050607ull << 64) |
0x08090a0b0c0d0e0full;
register void * vptr asm ("r11");
vptr = &v;
for(;;)
asm volatile ("lvx 30,0,11" );
}
When sending SIGABRT to this program and examining the core file, we get:
- ppc64 : 00 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 0a 0b 0c 0d 0e 0f
- ppc64le: 0f 0e 0d 0c 0b 0a 09 08 07 06 05 04 03 02 01 00
We expect to find the very same layout in the QEMU dump since they are
real core files. This is what we get:
- ppc64 host, ppc64 guest : 00 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 0a 0b 0c 0d 0e 0f
- ppc64 host, ppc64le guest : 0f 0e 0d 0c 0b 0a 09 08 07 06 05 04 03 02 01 00
- x86_64 host, ppc64 guest : 00 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 0a 0b 0c 0d 0e 0f
- x86_64 host, ppc64le guest: 0f 0e 0d 0c 0b 0a 09 08 07 06 05 04 03 02 01 00
We introduce a NoteFuncArg type to avoid adding extra arguments to all note
functions.

[ rebased on top of current master branch,
introduced NoteFuncArg,
use new cpu_to_dump{16,32,64} endian helpers,
fix altivec support,
