Subject: [PATCH] powerpc: fixing endianness of flash_block_list in rtas_flash
Date: Fri, 25 Jul 2014 12:47:42 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1406310462-23005-1-git-send-email-tlfalcon@linux.vnet.ibm.com> (raw)
The function rtas_flash_firmware passes the address of a data structure,
flash_block_list, when making the update-flash-64-and-reboot rtas call.
While the endianness of the address is handled correctly, the endianness
of the data is not. This patch ensures that the data in flash_block_list
is big endian when passed to rtas on little endian hosts.
