Yes, they are reversed for some stupid historical reason (autoconf
internal variables not matching common sense, iirc).  That ought to be
fixed eventually... let's see if I can do that soon (filed PR
bin/44305 to track this).

You can define the "require.arch" and "require.machine" properties on
a test case basis; these contain a whitespace separated list of all
allowed architectures and machines for a particular test case.
atf-run will automatically skip these test cases if the host machine
does not match the requirements.  See atf-test-case(4) for details on
other require.* properties.
