The new Packet::setRaw() method incorrectly still contained
an htog() conversion. As a result, calls to the old set()
method (now defined as setRaw(htog(v))) underwent two htog
conversions, which breaks things when htog() is not a no-op.
Interestingly the only test that caught this was a SPARC
boot test, where an IsaFake device with a non-zero return
value was getting swapped twice resulting in a register
getting loaded with 0x100000000000000 instead of 1.
(Good reason for keeping SPARC around, perhaps?)
The Packet::get() and Packet::set() methods both have very strange
semantics. Currently, they automatically convert between the guest
system's endianness and the host system's endianness. This behavior is
usually undesired and unexpected.
This patch introduces three new method pairs to access data:
* getLE() / setLE() - Get data stored as little endian.
* getBE() / setBE() - Get data stored as big endian.
* get(ByteOrder) / set(v, ByteOrder) - Configurable endianness
For example, a little endian device that is receiving a write request
will use teh getLE() method to get the data from the packet.
The old interface will be deprecated once all existing devices have
been ported to the new interface.
This patch takes a first step in tightening up how we use the data
pointer in write packets. A const getter is added for the pointer
itself (getConstPtr), and a number of member functions are also made
const accordingly. In a range of places throughout the memory system
the new member is used.
The patch also removes the unused isReadWrite function.
