Alexey Kardashevskiy fad189d1f6 spapr/rtas: Force big endian compile for rtas
At the moment the rtas's Makefile uses generic QEMU rules which means
that when QEMU is compiled on a little endian system, the spapr-rtas.bin
is compiled as little endian too which is incorrect as it is always
executed in big endian mode.

This enforces -mbig by defining %.o:%.S rule as spapr-rtas.bin is
a standalone guest binary which should not depend on QEMU flags anyway.

Peter Maydell 0bdb12c7c5 rules.mak: quiet-command: Split command name and args to print
The quiet-command make rule currently takes two arguments:
the command and arguments to run, and a string to print if
the V flag is not set (ie we are not being verbose).
By convention, the string printed is of the form
"  NAME   some args". Unfortunately to get nicely lined up
output all the strings have to agree about what column the
arguments should start in, which means that if we add a
new quiet-command usage which wants a slightly longer CMD
name then we either put up with misalignment or change
every quiet-command string.

Split the quiet-mode string into two, the "NAME" and
the "same args" part, and use printf(1) to format the
string automatically. This means we only need to change
one place if we want to support a longer maximum name.

In particular, we can now print 7-character names lined
up properly (they are needed for the OSX "SETTOOL" invocation).

Change all the uses of quiet-command to the new syntax.
(Any which are missed or inadvertently reintroduced
via later merges will result in slightly misformatted
quiet output rather than disaster.)

A few places in the pc-bios/ makefiles are updated to use
"BUILD", "SIGN" and "STRIP" rather than "Building",
"Signing" and "Stripping" for consistency and to keep them
below 7 characters. Module .mo links now print "LD" rather
than the nonstandard "LD -r".

David Gibson 39ac845510 Implement hcall based RTAS for pSeries machines
On pSeries machines, operating systems can instantiate "RTAS" (Run-Time
Abstraction Services), a runtime component of the firmware which implements
a number of low-level, infrequently used operations.  On logical partitions
under a hypervisor, many of the RTAS functions require hypervisor
privilege.  For simplicity, therefore, hypervisor systems typically
implement the in-partition RTAS as just a tiny wrapper around a hypercall
which actually implements the various RTAS functions.

This patch implements such a hypercall based RTAS for our emulated pSeries
machine.  A tiny in-partition "firmware" calls a new hypercall, which
looks up available RTAS services in a table.
