[PATCH 2/3] virtio: mmio: fix signature checking for BE guests

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

 



As virtio-mmio config registers are specified to be little-endian,
using readl() to read the magic value and then memcmp() to check it
fails on BE (as readl() has an implicit swab).

Fix it by encoding the magic value as an integer instead of a string.
