linux-stable.git/include/uapi/linux/types.h, branch v4.12.2 Linux kernel stable tree linux/types.h: enable endian checks for all sparse builds 2016-12-15T22:13:39+00:00 Michael S. Tsirkin mst@redhat.com 2016-12-08T02:19:29+00:00 05de97003c773e7881e4df3f767b81a6508107f2 By now, linux is mostly endian-clean. Enabling endian-ness checks for everyone produces about 200 new sparse warnings for me - less than 10% over the 2000 sparse warnings already there. Not a big deal, OTOH enabling this helps people notice they are introducing new bugs. So let's just drop __CHECK_ENDIAN__. Follow-up patches can drop distinction between __bitwise and __bitwise__.
