To satisfy adapter's need, use memcpy() to copy byte by byte > of 'ip' into lower 32bit of req.word[1]. > > Mac address and serial number of adapter need to be in little endian format. > Change the data type of the related variables to __le32 / __le64 or cast it > explicitly to __le32 / __le64 depending upon the requirement.
