The driver needs the host endian as proposed by this patch, so instead of that, we can use %.4s [1]: https://lore.kernel.org/asahi/E753B391-D2CB-4213-AF82-678ADD5A7644@xxxxxxxxxxx/ Alternatively we could add a host endian only. Other endians are not really used by any driver AFAIK. The host endian is being used by appletbdrm and Asahi Linux’ SMC driver only. > > > --- > - *p++ = ' '; > - strcpy(p, orig & BIT(31) ?
