From: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Date: Tue, 3 Sep 2002 21:27:59 +1000 (EST) I notice though that if the length is odd, we (PPC) put the last byte in the left-hand (most significant) byte of a 16-bit halfword, with zero in the other byte, and add it in, whereas i386 puts the last byte in the least-significant position. What PPC does is correct for big endian. - : send the line "unsubscribe linux-net" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
