Interesting patches, thanks for looking into it. I don't know much about compat and wrong endian userspaces. I think sys_switch_endian is enabled though, it's just a strange fast endian swap thing that has been disabled by default. The first patches look pretty good. Maybe for the last one it could become a selectable option? > I am not particularly sure about the best way to resolve the llseek > situation.

Can we just get rid of it, or is there some old broken 64-bit BE userspace that tries to call it? Thanks, Nick
