From bb8a954f27ed8fb8f57e80e6b63d837cfdcad689 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Patrick McHardy Date: Mon, 9 Apr 2007 11:42:25 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] [NET_SCHED]: cls_tcindex: fix compatibility breakage Userspace uses an integer for TCA_TCINDEX_SHIFT, the kernel was changed to expect and use a u16 value in 2.6.11, which broke compatibility on big endian machines. Change back to use int. Reported by Ole Reinartz Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy Signed-off-by: David S.
