Cool, next week :-). The current version works fine without. And I need a weekend for a change :-D.

Having returned from a 10-day weekend, I can only recommend this.


Yuck.  What do we do?  Implement set_bit_u64() and friends?


That's what I'd think we should do, yes.

For qemu I sent a patch that always uses "uint64_t" because that works fine with the current code (32-bit on 64-bit uses the right bytes for LE, 64-bit on 64-bit doesn't change). PPC is not implement yet for anyone either and for now we only have dirty logging with 64 bit kernels and 32-bit or 64-bit userspace, so that's fine too.

As soon as someone implement dirty logging on a 32-bit big endian target, it will break though, so before that day comes we need to change set_bit to set_bit_64.

Perhaps we can get away with disabling 32-on-64 for the configurations that break to start with.
