I'd be interested to see your test program because in my testing it's
still not right, unfortunately. Interestingly, it is right for the BE
guest on LE host case. However, with a LE guest on a LE host the two
halves are swapped, both for lvx and stvx:
error in lvx at byte 0
was: -> 62 69 70 77 7e 85 8c 93 2a 31 38 3f 46 4d 54 5b
ref: -> 2a 31 38 3f 46 4d 54 5b 62 69 70 77 7e 85 8c 93
error in stvx at byte 0
was: -> 49 50 57 5e 65 6c 73 7a 11 18 1f 26 2d 34 3b 42
ref: -> 11 18 1f 26 2d 34 3b 42 49 50 57 5e 65 6c 73 7a
The byte order within each 8-byte half is correct but the two halves
are swapped. ("was" is what was in memory and "ref" is the correct
value. For lvx it does lvx from emulated MMIO and stvx to ordinary
memory, and for stvx it does lvx from ordinary memory and stvx to
emulated MMIO. In both cases the checking is done with a byte by byte
comparison.)
