commit54999c0d94upstream. The analog input subdevice supports Comedi asynchronous commands that use Comedi's 16-bit sample format. However, the call to `comedi_buf_write_samples()` is passing the address of a 32-bit integer variable. On bigendian machines, this will copy 2 bytes from the wrong end of the 32-bit value. Fix it by changing the type of the variable holding the sample value to `unsigned short`. [Note: the bug was introduced in commit1700529b24("staging: comedi: dmm32at: use comedi_buf_write_samples()") but the patch applies better to the later (but in the same kernel release) commit0c0eadadcb("staging: comedi: dmm32at: introduce dmm32_ai_get_sample()").] Fixes:0c0eadadcb("staging: comedi: dmm32at: introduce dmm32_ai_get_sample()") Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> # 3.19+ Signed-off-by: Ian Abbott <abbotti@mev.co.uk> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20210223143055.257402-7-abbotti@mev.co.uk Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
