This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled selftests/bpf: Fix endianness issue in test_sockopt_sk to the 5.9-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: selftests-bpf-fix-endianness-issue-in-test_sockopt_s.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.9 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 7e104cede32f594027afc0bc80872c9df4e32af9 Author: Ilya Leoshkevich <iii@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue Sep 15 13:39:28 2020 +0200 selftests/bpf: Fix endianness issue in test_sockopt_sk [ Upstream commit fec47bbc10b243690f5d0ee484a0bbdee273e71b ] getsetsockopt() calls getsockopt() with optlen == 1, but then checks the resulting int. It is ok on little endian, but not on big endian. Fix by checking char instead.
