This week I worked on getting the integration tests for ARM, MIPS and MIPSel merged in. Additionally I've set up the qemu image for working with powerpc(big endian). The image I'm using can be from here. Additionally, you will need to install openbios from here in order to get the qemu image to work out. The deb files for the same can be found here.
I used "debian_squeeze_powerpc_standard.qcow2" and "openbios-ppc_1.0+svn1060-1_all.deb". The startup command line is as follows.
qemu-system-ppc -hda ./debian_squeeze_powerpc_standard.qcow2 -m 2047 -bios /usr/share/openbios/openbios-ppc -cpu G4 -M mac99 -net user,hostfwd=tcp::10022-:22 -net nic
Note: Do not use ping to test network connectivity. use "apt-get update" or something.
Note 2: To ssh into the image do "ssh root@localhost -p10022".
Looking at gdb in ppc the register layout seems roughly as shown here. I'll be working on finalising the aarch64 integration test and ppc support this week.
