Change config space, ring and headers to always be little endian ---------------------------------------------------------------- Key: VIRTIO-9 URL: http://tools.oasis-open.org/issues/browse/VIRTIO-9 Project: OASIS Virtual I/O Device (VIRTIO) TC Issue Type: Improvement Reporter: Rusty Russell They are currently guest-endian, and it's been a source of confusion and pain (esp. for architectures which can switch endian!). There remains a question mark on virtio-ccw performance implications, but it's probably better to go LE everywhere than per-transport. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://tools.oasis-open.org/issues/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
