[PATCH] libext2fs: Always swab MMP block on BE machines

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

 



The MMP code in libext2fs tries to gate MMP block swab'ing with this test:

#ifdef EXT2FS_ENABLE_SWAPFS
if (fs->super->s_magic == ext2fs_swab16(EXT2_SUPER_MAGIC))

However, EXT2FS_ENABLE_SWAPFS never seems to be defined anywhere (all possible
#define's were cleaned out of e2fsprogs ages ago), and even if any still
existed, the field fs->super->s_magic is always in host byteorder, so the test
always fails.  So, we can change the #ifdef to WORDS_BIGENDIAN (which is
conditionally defined on BE platforms) and get rid of the broken if test.

(This fix came up while testing the metadata checksumming patchset)
