Subject: arch: define CPU_BIG_ENDIAN for all fixed big endian archs
Patch series "Define CPU_BIG_ENDIAN or warn for inconsistencies", v3.
While working on enabling queued rwlock on SPARC, found this following
code in include/asm-generic/qrwlock.h which uses CONFIG_CPU_BIG_ENDIAN to
clear a byte.
static inline u8 *__qrwlock_write_byte(struct qrwlock *lock)
{
return (u8 *)lock + 3 * IS_BUILTIN(CONFIG_CPU_BIG_ENDIAN);
}
Problem is many of the fixed big endian architectures don't define
CPU_BIG_ENDIAN and clears the wrong byte.
Define CPU_BIG_ENDIAN for all the fixed big endian architecture to fix it.
Also found few more references of this config parameter in
drivers/of/base.c
drivers/of/fdt.c
drivers/tty/serial/earlycon.c
drivers/tty/serial/serial_core.c
Be aware that this may cause regressions if someone has worked-around
problems in the above code already. Remove the work-around.
