From: Simon Guo <wei.guo.simon@xxxxxxxxx> When KVM emulates VMX store, it will invoke kvmppc_get_vmx_data() to retrieve VMX reg val. kvmppc_get_vmx_data() will check mmio_host_swabbed to decide which double word of vr[] to be used. But the mmio_host_swabbed can be uninitiazed during VMX store procedure: kvmppc_emulate_loadstore \- kvmppc_handle_store128_by2x64 \- kvmppc_get_vmx_data So vcpu->arch.mmio_host_swabbed is not meant to be used at all for emulation of store instructions, and this patch makes that true for VMX stores. This patch also initializes mmio_host_swabbed to avoid invisble trouble.
