From byteorder.h:
#ifdef __ARMEB__ #include <linux/byteorder/big_endian.h> #else #include <linux/byteorder/little_endian.h> #endif
So, yes, given no hints on who or what configures __ARMEB__. Is it always little endian? -- George Anzinger george@mvista.com High-res-timers: http://sourceforge.net/projects/high-res-timers/ Real time sched: http://sourceforge.net/projects/rtsched/ Preemption patch: http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/rml - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
