From: Leon Woestenberg To: jarod@wilsonet.com, "Naren (Narendra) Sankar" , "hancockrwd@gmail.com" , "jarod@redhat.com" , "linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org" , "davilla@4pi.com" , "abraham.manu@gmail.com" Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org List-ID: X-Mailing-List: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Hello all, has the CrystalHD driver/library been tested on big endian systems? The (staging GIT tree) driver sources seem to use bitfields in C, is this safe under different endianess? I'm currently testing two BCM70012 modules on a big-endian PowerPC system and it fails changing the clock PLL to 175 MHz. This could be a pair of defective modules, or the wrong bits being modified. Unfortunately, I do not have a little endian system with mini-PCIe available to do a A-B check. Regards, -- Leon
