Hmmmm,
I have thought a long time, still can't point where is wrong.
Let's from the result:
0x0f000000 in the big endian laid as this:
low ---> high
0x0f 00 00 00
As I have swapped before the compare so it is read as this:
low ---> high
00 00 00 0x0f
However from the store side:
the 15 in big endian is:
low ---> high
00 00 00 0x0f
But Before I store it, I convert it to little endian, so following should
be stored:
low ---> high
0x0f 00 00 00
Do you apply the patch 3 and recompile the qemu binary?
If it is, I may need your help as I have no big endian host device.
You can debug and inspect the memory layout and point out where is wrong.
