Thanks for reviewing this patch.
On testing to add a note, I have tested this patch with 3.17 LE host
kernel on a mustang board
and booted of LE and BE 3.17 kernels with virtio disk and net.

This is the only patch needed for big-endian guest kernels to use virtio.
Most of the BE things are already taken care by KVM and kernel code only.

For the time-being I will post a v2 patch with incorporation of all
the remaining comments.
Once we have sysreg state implementation merged by Alex B, I will
revise v2 to post mergable version.

Yeah, we can to fix this for both arm32 and arm64 once the work-around

Thanks for this patch (and the associated testing).
Is this the only thing we need for big-endian guest kernels,
or are there other patches to follow? I thought we needed something
in the kernel loader code too...

As Greg says, we can just have the ARM cpu.h define TARGET_BIENDIAN.

If you run your patches through checkpatch.pl you'll find
they don't correspond with QEMU's coding style here.

(This won't compile on non-linux hosts, incidentally, because
the ARM64_SYS_REG macro is in the kvm headers.)

As you say really we need to implement sysreg state
synchronization properly (IIRC Alex B had some patches
for this). I don't think we want to take this patch as-is,
though it's very helpful for demonstrating that everything
else works.

An implementation that doesn't need to work around our lack of
aarch64 sysreg syncing could be implemented in the ARM cpu class
so it worked for both 32 bit and 64 bit CPUs, I think.

This is code duplication of the TARGET_IS_BIENDIAN case. To be consistent

[Qemu-devel] [PATCH] target-arm: Add guest cpu endianness determination for virtio in KVM ARM64
This patch implements a fucntion pointer virtio_is_big_endian()
from "CPUClass" structure for arm64.
Function aarch64_cpu_virtio_endianness() is added to determine and
returns the guest cpu endianness to virtio.
This is required for running cross endian guests with virtio on ARM64.
