qemu is known to not match POWER9, so some tests should fail. I added the
Python  bindings to power-instruction-simulator specifically so we could write
unit tests against its instruction models, since they are likely to catch cases
where POWER9 and qemu disagree. So, to use it:

import power_instruction_analyzer as pia

fn unit_test_mulldo_(self, ra, rb, rt, so, ov, ov32, cr0):
    # ra, rb, and rt are u64
    # so, ov, and ov32 are bool

    # includes rc for madd*, didn't yet set a default value
    # so rc=<something> required for now:
    inputs = pia.InstructionInputs(ra=ra, rb=rb, rc=0)
    # all functions assumes SO flag starts as 0
    outputs = pia.mulldo_(inputs) # the mulldo. instruction
    self.assertEqual(outputs.rt, rt)
    self.assertEqual(outputs.overflow.so, so)
    self.assertEqual(outputs.overflow.ov, ov)
    self.assertEqual(outputs.overflow.ov32, ov32)
    self.assertEqual(outputs.cr0.lt, bool(cr0 & 8))
    self.assertEqual(outputs.cr0.gt, bool(cr0 & 4))
    self.assertEqual(outputs.cr0.eq, bool(cr0 & 2))
    self.assertEqual(outputs.cr0.so, bool(cr0 & 1))
