Similarly, when writing partitions, the length needs to be in big endian order. The userspace tool 'nvram' needs a similar fix as it is reading and writing partitions through /dev/nram : http://sourceforge.net/p/powerpc-utils/mailman/message/31571277/ Signed-off-by: Cedric Le Goater Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt --- diff --git a/arch/powerpc/kernel/nvram_64.c b/arch/powerpc/kernel/nvram_64.c index 8213ee1eb05a..fd82c289ab1c 100644 --- a/arch/powerpc/kernel/nvram_64.c +++ b/arch/powerpc/kernel/nvram_64.c @@ -223,9 +223,13 @@ static int __init nvram_write_header(struct nvram_partition * part) { loff_t tmp_index; int rc; - + struct nvram_header phead; + + memcpy(&phead, &part->header, NVRAM_HEADER_LEN); + phead.length = cpu_to_be16(phead.length); + tmp_index = part->index; - rc = ppc_md.nvram_write((char *)&part->header, NVRAM_HEADER_LEN, &tmp_index); + rc = ppc_md.nvram_write((char *)&phead, NVRAM_HEADER_LEN, &tmp_index); return rc; } @@ -505,6 +509,8 @@ int __init nvram_scan_partitions(void) memcpy(&phead, header, NVRAM_HEADER_LEN); + phead.length = be16_to_cpu(phead.length); + err = 0; c_sum = nvram_checksum(&phead); if (c_sum != phead.checksum) {
