[V2][PATCH net] tipc: fix the big/little endian issue in tipc_dest
From: Haiqing Bai
Date: Sun Aug 26 2018 - 22:01:29 EST
In function tipc_dest_push, the 32bit variables 'node' and 'port'
are stored separately in uppper and lower part of 64bit 'value'.
Then this value is assigned to dst->value which is a union like:
union
{
struct {
u32 port;
u32 node;
};
u64 value;
}
This works on little-endian machines like x86 but fails on big-endian
machines.
The fix remove the 'value' stack parameter and even the 'value'
member of the union in tipc_dest, assign the 'node' and 'port' member
directly with the input parameter to avoid the endian issue.
Fixes: a80ae5306a73 ("tipc: improve destination linked list")
