Subject: [PATCH v3] locking/qrwlock: Let qrwlock has same layout regardless of the endian
Date: Mon, 20 Jun 2016 14:20:52 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1466403652-2931-1-git-send-email-xinhui.pan@linux.vnet.ibm.com> (raw)

This patch aims to get rid of endianness in queued_write_unlock(). We
want to set  __qrwlock->wmode to NULL, however the address is not
&lock->cnts in big endian machine. That causes queued_write_unlock()
write NULL to the wrong field of __qrwlock.

Actually qrwlock can have same layout, IOW we can remove the #if
__little_endian in struct __qrwlock. With such modification, we only
need define some _QW* and _QR* with corresponding values in different
endian systems.

change from v2:
	change macro's name, add comments.
change from v1:
	A typo fix which is really bad...
	thanks Will for the carefull review. :)
