documented Oops running big-endian reiserfs on parisc architecture

Well, I watched the number of files in /lost+found grow every time I
had to pull the plug from my HP C200, so I added a 'sync' option in
/etc/fstab and tried to get reiserfs working.

I patched my 2.4.9-pa13 kernel with

endian-safe-reiserfs-for-2.4.8.patch

which went without warnings or errors. A patched
reiserfs-progs-3.x.0k-pre9 also built well (despite what the configure
scripts says, you _need_ automake).

Creating a reiserfs-partition went without a hitch.

running bonnie -s 128 on it did this:

Adding Swap: 1041400k swap-space (priority -1)
eth0: Setting half-duplex based on MII#1 link partner capability of 0021.
reiserfs: checking transaction log (device 08:03) ...
Using r5 hash to sort names
ReiserFS version 3.6.25
bonnie[163]: Unaligned data reference 28

After reading in the archives about ksymoops, I looked up this part of
my System.map:

10197ad4 t reiserfs_add_entry

which makes the error somewhere around here in
fs/reiserfs/namei.c, function reiserfs_add_entry, after call to
padd_item, before call to reiserfs_find_entry:

    /* copy name */
    memcpy ((char *)(deh + 1), name, namelen);
    /* padd by 0s to the 4 byte boundary */
    padd_item ((char *)(deh + 1), ROUND_UP (namelen), namelen);

    /* entry is ready to be pasted into tree, set 'visibility' and 'stat data in entry' attributes */
    mark_de_without_sd (deh);
    visible ? mark_de_visible (deh) : mark_de_hidden (deh);

    /* find the proper place for the new entry */
    memset (bit_string, 0, sizeof (bit_string));
    de.de_gen_number_bit_string = (char *)bit_string;
    retval = reiserfs_find_entry (dir, name, namelen, &path, &de);

And there I'm stuck. I'm sending this to the parisc-list to document the
failure, and to linux-kernel to reach some reiserfs-experts, perhaps.

I'm willing to test anything!

Good luck,
Jurriaan
