On Sun 16 Oct 2011 05:59, Bernhard Kaindl pondered:
> From: Bernhard Kaindl <bernhard.kaindl at thalesgroup.com>
> 
> net/dns.c used endian conversion macros wrongly (shorts in reply
> were put swapped into CPU, and then ntohs() was used to swap it
> back, which broke on big-endian).
> 
> Fix this by using the correct linux conversion macro for reading
> a unaligned short in network byte order: get_unaligned_be16()
> Thanks to Mike Frysinger pointing at the best macro to use.
> 
> Tested on big and little endian qemu boards (mips and versatile)

This also tweaks some error messages and comments, which isn't captured in the change log?

Otherwise, Ack from me.
