[PATCH v3 0/7] vhost: support for cross endian guests

From: Greg Kurz
Date: Tue Apr 07 2015 - 08:09:41 EST


Hi,

This patchset allows vhost to be used with legacy virtio when guest and host
have a different endianness.

Patches 1-6 remain the same as the previous post. Patch 7 was heavily changed
according to MST's comments.
