[PULL 7/8] target/arm: Fix handling of setting SVE registers from gdb
Posted by Peter Maydell 6 months, 1 week ago
From: Vacha Bhavsar <vacha.bhavsar@oss.qualcomm.com>

The code to handle setting SVE registers via the gdbstub is broken:
 * it sets each pair of elements in the zregs[].d[] array in the
   wrong order for the most common (little endian) case: the least
   significant 64-bit value comes first
 * it makes no attempt to handle target_endian()
 * it does a simple copy out of the (target endian) gdbstub buffer
   into the (host endan) zregs data structure, which is wrong on
   big endian hosts

Fix all these problems:
 * use ldq_p() to read from the gdbstub buffer
 * check target_big_endian() to see if we need to handle the
   128-bit values the opposite way around
