Maxime Chevallier says: ==================== net: mvpp2: Add big-endian support This series allows to use PPv2 on system built as big endian. The first patch fixes the way we represent TX and RX descriptors, so that they used fixed little endianness as expected by the PPv2 controller. The second reworks the way we handle the software representation of the Header Parser entries, so that we don't use a union of arrays. The last two patches fixes some incorrect byte swapping logic, that wen't un-noticed on little-endian. This whole series doesn't fix any existing bug for little-endian systems, and since big-endian never worked for this driver, I didn't include 'fixes' tags. This was tested on MacchiatoBin (Armada 8040). ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
