[PATCH] net: pfcp: fix typo in message_priority field name
Posted by RubenKelevra 4 months ago
Fix 'message_priprity' typo to 'message_priority' in big endian
bitfield definition. This typo breaks compilation on big endian
architectures.

Fixes: 6dd514f48110 ("pfcp: always set pfcp metadata")

I had the same issue today, happy there's a patch for this.

Could y'all share more? What compilation does this break?
The field is never used.

More info about how you found the problem would be useful.
And I believe this can go to net-next, without the CC stable
and without the Fixes tag. Unless my grep is lying to me:

net-next$ git grep message_priority
include/net/pfcp.h:     u8      message_priority:4,

pw-bot: cr

Hi Jakub,

I hit it while building an out-of-tree module that reads hdr->message_priority.
Cross-compiling for a big-endian target failed for me, because of it.

That’s the only reason for the patch; net-next is fine, no need for stable.

Cheers,
Ruben

I see, please go ahead and repost with [PATCH net-next], no stable cc
and no fixes tag. Would also be good to mention in the commit message
that it does not currently cause kernel build issues, but is clearly
incorrect.
[PATCH net-next v2] net: pfcp: fix typo in message_priority field name
Posted by RubenKelevra 4 months ago
The field is spelled “message_priprity” in the big-endian bit-field
definition.  Nothing in-tree currently references the member, so the
typo does not break kernel builds, but it is clearly incorrect and
confuses out-of-tree code.
