Hi Suka,

A few more things ...

These are both out of date, they're changed in v3.0B.

You should define PPC_PASTE() in ppc-opcode.h

We already have PPC_INST_PASTE, so use that.

L and RC are gone.

Use PPC_COPY().

I don't think a #define for this helps readability.

Not used.

Please change the API to not require unused parameters.

Same for offset.

I've never seen __volatile before.

Just use: asm volatile

cr is 32-bits actually.

You need cr0 in the clobbers.

I think it would be more natural if you just returned CR0, so if you did
shift and mask with the CR0 constants you have above.

This is in the fast path, or at least the runtime path. So I don't think
these checks are wanted, how would we have got this far if vas wasn't
initialised?
