[PATCH] ceph: present consistent fsid, regardless of arch endianness

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Jeff Layton <jlayton@xxxxxxxxxx>

Since its inception, ceph has presented the fsid as an opaque value
without any sort of endianness conversion. This means that the value
presented is different on architectures of different endianness.

While the value that should be stuffed into f_fsid is poorly-defined,
I think it would be best to strive for consistency here between
architectures, and clients (we need to present this properly to the
userland client as well).

Change ceph_statfs to convert the opaque words to host-endian before
doing the xor. The value will change between reboots on big-endian
architectures, but it should not change on little-endian ones.
