[PATCH] char/moxa.c: fix endianess and multiple-card issues

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Dirk Eibach <[email protected]>

While testing Moxa C218T/PCI on PowerPC 405EP I found that loading firmware using the linux kernel driver fails because calculation of the checksum is not endianess independent in the original code.

After I fixed this I found that uploading firmware in a system with multiple cards causes a kernel oops. I had a look in the recent moxa sources and found that they do some kind of locking there. Applying this lock fixed the problem.

This patch applies to kernel 2.6.16.
