[v1,8/8] selftests/nolibc: add test support for powerpc64
Commit Message
Here adds test support for big endian 64-bit PowerPC.
The powernv machine of qemu-system-ppc64 is used with
powernv_be_defconfig.
As the document [1] shows:
PowerNV (as Non-Virtualized) is the “bare metal” platform using the
OPAL firmware. It runs Linux on IBM and OpenPOWER systems and it can be
used as an hypervisor OS, running KVM guests, or simply as a host OS.
Note, differs from little endian 64-bit PowerPC, vmlinux is used instead
of zImage, because big endian zImage [2] only boot on qemu with x-vof=on
(added from qemu v7.0) and a fixup patch [3] for qemu v7.0.51:

And similarly let's simply call this one ppc64.
Aside these few comments, the series looks nice, thanks!

Well, I like these short ones too, what about also a ppc alias for
powerpc?
ARCH_ppc = powerpc
ARCH_ppc64 = powerpc
ARCH_ppc64le = powerpc

Have applied all of your suggestions, thanks very much.
Best regards,

I thought about it as well. It could avoid the confusion between the
arch name (powerpc) that's used for both 32/64 and the user-requested
one.
