On a ppc64 big endian system, xfs_db would print the following, xfs_db> p core.magic = 0x494e core.mode = 0100600 core.version = 3 core.format = -253 This is due to fp_dinode_fmt() interpretting the di_format field as signed. This commit fixes the bug by passing BVUNSIGNED (instead of BVSIGNED) as the argument to getbitval(). With this commit applied, we now get, xfs_db> p core.magic = 0x494e core.mode = 0100600 core.version = 3 core.format = 3 (btree) Signed-off-by: Chandan Rajendra <chandan@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- db/inode.c | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/db/inode.c b/db/inode.c index cac19fc..8b7a41e 100644 --- a/db/inode.c +++ b/db/inode.c @@ -238,7 +238,7 @@ fp_dinode_fmt( int i; for (i = 0, bitpos = bit; i < count; i++, bitpos += size) { - f = (xfs_dinode_fmt_t)getbitval(obj, bitpos, size, BVSIGNED); + f = (xfs_dinode_fmt_t)getbitval(obj, bitpos, size, BVUNSIGNED); if (array) dbprintf("%d:", i + base); if (f < 0 || f >= dinode_fmt_name_size) -- 2.5.5 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-xfs" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
