If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From 3c181c12c431fe33b669410d663beb9cceefcd1b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Anand Jain <anand.jain@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu, 22 Feb 2018 21:58:42 +0800 Subject: btrfs: use proper endianness accessors for super_copy From: Anand Jain <anand.jain@xxxxxxxxxx> commit 3c181c12c431fe33b669410d663beb9cceefcd1b upstream. The fs_info::super_copy is a byte copy of the on-disk structure and all members must use the accessor macros/functions to obtain the right value. This was missing in update_super_roots and in sysfs readers. Moving between opposite endianness hosts will report bogus numbers in sysfs, and mount may fail as the root will not be restored correctly. If the filesystem is always used on a same endian host, this will not be a problem. Fix this by using the btrfs_set_super...() functions to set fs_info::super_copy values, and for the sysfs, use the cached fs_info::nodesize/sectorsize values.
