[PATCH 3/10] UML - Fix UML network driver endianness bugs

From: Jeff Dike
Date: Sun Oct 30 2005 - 22:47:29 EST


From: Bodo Stroesser <bstroesser@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

ifa->ifa_address and ifa->ifa_mask are defined as __u32,
but used as if they were char[4].
Network code uses htons() to convert it.
So UML's method to access these fields is wrong for bigendians
(e.g. s390)
I replaced bytewise copying by memcpy(), maybe even that might
be removed, if ifa->ifa_address/mask may be used immediately.
