[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 2/2] linux-user: correct core dump format

[Laurent Vivier <laurent@vivier.eu>]

This patch allows to really use the core dumped by qemu with guest
architecture tools.

- it adds a missing bswap_phdr() for the program headers
  of memory regions.

  "objdump -x" sample:

BEFORE:

0x1000000 off    0x00200000 vaddr 0x00000400 paddr 0x00000000 align 2**21
         filesz 0x00000000 memsz 0x00100000 flags ---
0x1000000 off    0x00200000 vaddr 0x00100400 paddr 0x00000000 align 2**21
         filesz 0x00000000 memsz 0x00080000 flags --- 6000000

AFTER:

    LOAD off    0x00002000 vaddr 0x00040000 paddr 0x00000000 align 2**13
         filesz 0x00000000 memsz 0x00001000 flags ---
    LOAD off    0x00002000 vaddr 0x00041000 paddr 0x00000000 align 2**13
         filesz 0x00000000 memsz 0x00000800 flags rw-

- it doesn't pad the note size to sizeof(int32_t).
  On m68k the NT_PRSTATUS note size is 154 and
  must not be rounded up to 156, because this value is checked by
  objdump and gdb.

  "gdb" symptoms:

      "warning: Couldn't find general-purpose registers in core file."

  "objdump -x" sample:
