Re: [PATCH v2] Bluetooth: btusb: using big-endian definition for board_id in struct qca_version

From: tjiang

Hi Marcel:
yeah , you are right, but in fact we mixing little-endian and big-endian is defined by qc btsoc(have some reason), so host only should be align with it , I will make another change , need your help to review, thank you.

regards.

Hi Tim,

As we name nvm file by using big-endian for boardID, so align host with it.

my original comment still stands. Are you sure you are doing this
correctly. The in-memory layout of your NVM is mixed little-endian and
big-endian? Really? Or do you want to convert back from host endian to
big endian?

You commit message text suggest that you have to do this:

diff --git a/drivers/bluetooth/btusb.c b/drivers/bluetooth/btusb.c

+ rom_version, variant, cpu_to_be16(board_id));
}
} else {
snprintf(fwname, max_size, "qca/nvm_usb_%08x.bin”,

And really, I can not do this anymore. Write lengthy commit messages
explaining your change in detail. I am not looking a patches anymore
until they have a proper paragraph explaining the change and why it is
correct.

Also this change had v16 before I merged and even in that version I
had to fix issues. Please stop wasting my time. I have no idea why
this wasn’t caught earlier. It is a fundamental flaw. I am close to
just reverting the previous patch since it seems it clearly needs more
testing.
