[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 0/7] Virtio support for endian-curious guests.

[Rusty Russell]

Virtio is currently defined as "guest-endian", but that's a slippery
concept when the target can change endian.  In particular, virtio devices
fail on little-endian powerpc 64.

Feedback welcome!
Rusty.

Rusty Russell (7):
  virtio: allow byte swapping for vring and config access
  target-ppc: ppc64 targets can be either endian.
  hw/net/virtio-net: use virtio wrappers to access headers.
  hw/net/virtio-balloon: use virtio wrappers to access page frame
    numbers.
  hw/block/virtio-blk: use virtio wrappers to access headers.
  hw/scsi/virtio-scsi: use virtio wrappers to access headers.
  hw/char/virtio-serial-bus: use virtio wrappers to access headers.
