It's not confusing. When you run unpatched qemu *on a big endian host*, that's identical to what the patched code does *on a big endian host*. The full matrix actually has 8 elements (3 dimensions with 2 values per dimension) -- host endianness, patched qemu vs. unpatched qemu, and swizzling vs. non-swizzling firmware. Thanks, Laszlo
