This is a note to let you know that I have just added a patch titled advansys: fix big-endian builds to the linux-4.2.y-queue branch of the 4.2.y-ckt extended stable tree which can be found at: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git/ubuntu/linux.git/log/?h=linux-4.2.y-queue This patch is scheduled to be released in version 4.2.8-ckt2. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to this tree, please reply to this email. For more information about the 4.2.y-ckt tree, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Dev/ExtendedStable Thanks. -Kamal ---8<------------------------------------------------------------ From cbe3ee604fe69d17f3d60c5faa980d58c04f1004 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de> Date: Mon, 16 Nov 2015 17:49:23 +0100 Subject: advansys: fix big-endian builds commit 757b22f9d56fb4e510782b29da752824daddf3c8 upstream. Building the advansys driver in a big-endian configuration such as ARM allmodconfig shows a warning: drivers/scsi/advansys.c: In function 'adv_build_req': include/uapi/linux/byteorder/big_endian.h:32:26: warning: large integer implicitly truncated to unsigned type [-Woverflow] #define __cpu_to_le32(x) ((__force __le32)__swab32((x))) drivers/scsi/advansys.c:7806:22: note: in expansion of macro 'cpu_to_le32' scsiqp->sense_len = cpu_to_le32(SCSI_SENSE_BUFFERSIZE); It turns out that the commit that introduced this used the cpu_to_le32() incorrectly on an 8-bit field, which results in the sense_len to always be set to zero, as the SCSI_SENSE_BUFFERSIZE value gets moved to upper byte of the 32-bit intermediate. This removes the cpu_to_le32() call to restore the original version. I found this only by looking at the compiler output and have not done a full review for possible further endianess bugs in the same driver.
