Now I remember what the problem was:
The comment before the definition of ioport__read16() says the PowerPC
needs to byteswap specifically PCI port I/O, but apparently not MMIO.
So I moved the ioport wrappers out of the actual handlers, and in *this*
patch they are just in the PIO path, so make it fit for both kind of
traps.
Now with dropping the PIO specific path in the next patch we lose this
differentiation. This is not a real problem here, since all accesses
are 8 bit wide only, which doesn't do anything, really.
I think a proper fix for this problem would be to do the byteswapping
*once*, very early (write) or late (read) in the KVM_RUN
exit handling, or in the kvm__emulate_io() function. So that the
whole device emulation always works in native endianness, and can use
pointers at will. But this would obviously be another patch.
So in preparation for this I could drop all usage of
ioport__{read,write}8 from this file, and use pointers all the way.
That wouldn't change anything (since it's byte accesses only anyway),
but would already prepare for this move.
What do you think?
