Building the advansys driver in a big-endian configuration such as ARM allmodconfig shows a warning:
drivers/scsi/advansys.c: In function 'adv_build_req': include/uapi/linux/byteorder/big_endian.h:32:26: warning: large integer implicitly truncated to unsigned type [-Woverflow] #define __cpu_to_le32(x) ((__force __le32)__swab32((x))) drivers/scsi/advansys.c:7806:22: note: in expansion of macro 'cpu_to_le32' scsiqp->sense_len = cpu_to_le32(SCSI_SENSE_BUFFERSIZE); It turns out that the commit that introduced this used the cpu_to_le32() incorrectly on an 8-bit field, which results in the sense_len to always be set to zero, as the SCSI_SENSE_BUFFERSIZE value gets moved to upper byte of the 32-bit intermediate. This removes the cpu_to_le32() call to restore the original version. I found this only by looking at the compiler output and have not done a full review for possible further endianess bugs in the same driver.
