Subject: [PATCH 09/14] staging: comedi: pcl818: Fix endian problem for AI command data
Date: Tue, 23 Feb 2021 14:30:50 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210223143055.257402-10-abbotti@mev.co.uk> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20210223143055.257402-1-abbotti@mev.co.uk>

The analog input subdevice supports Comedi asynchronous commands that
use Comedi's 16-bit sample format.  However, the call to
`comedi_buf_write_samples()` is passing the address of a 32-bit integer
parameter.  On bigendian machines, this will copy 2 bytes from the wrong
end of the 32-bit value.  Fix it by changing the type of the parameter
holding the sample value to `unsigned short`.

[Note: the bug was introduced in commit edf4537bcbf5 ("staging: comedi:
pcl818: use comedi_buf_write_samples()") but the patch applies better to
commit d615416de615 ("staging: comedi: pcl818: introduce
pcl818_ai_write_sample()").]

Fixes: d615416de615 ("staging: comedi: pcl818: introduce pcl818_ai_write_sample()")
