From 5201aa49b0fc12d9bf911090744ca04066bad4a7 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Michael S. Tsirkin" Date: Tue, 3 Feb 2015 11:07:06 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] vhost/net: fix up num_buffers endian-ness In virtio 1.0 mode, when mergeable buffers are enabled on a big-endian host, num_buffers wasn't byte-swapped correctly, so large incoming packets got corrupted. To fix, fill it in within hdr - this also makes sure it gets the correct type. Signed-off-by: Michael S. Tsirkin Signed-off-by: David S.
