Sachin, Since your patch had various sparse warnings, I did a different version, basically converting the SMB2/SMB3 MessageID field on the wire to le64 from u64 (we used to assume that the MessageId/MID was opaque) and then modifying places that used it to match that endianness. Would you try that and make sure it works in your big endian reproduction scenario (or propose an alternate patch)? -- Thanks, Steve -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-cifs" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
