[PATCH 2/5] modpost: fix ishtp MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE built on big endian host

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

 



When MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(ishtp, ) is built on a host with a different
endianness from the target architecture, it results in an incorrect
MODULE_ALIAS().

For example, see a case where drivers/platform/x86/intel/ishtp_eclite.c
is built as a module.

If you build it on a little endian host, you will get the correct
MODULE_ALIAS:

    $ grep MODULE_ALIAS drivers/platform/x86/intel/ishtp_eclite.mod.c
    MODULE_ALIAS("ishtp:{6A19CC4B-D760-4DE3-B14D-F25EBD0FBCD9}");

However, if you build it on a big endian host, you will get a wrong
MODULE_ALIAS:

    $ grep MODULE_ALIAS drivers/platform/x86/intel/ishtp_eclite.mod.c
    MODULE_ALIAS("ishtp:{BD0FBCD9-F25E-B14D-4DE3-D7606A19CC4B}");

This issue has been unnoticed because the x86 kernel is most likely built
natively on an x86 host.

The guid field must not be reversed because guid_t is an array of __u8.
