[PATCH 1/5] modpost: fix tee MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE built on big endian host

From: Masahiro Yamada
Date: Sat Oct 07 2023 - 13:05:26 EST


When MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(tee, ) is built on a host with a different
endianness from the target architecture, it results in an incorrect
MODULE_ALIAS().

For example, see a case where drivers/char/hw_random/optee-rng.c
is built as a module.

If you build it on a little endian host, you will get the correct
MODULE_ALIAS:

$ grep MODULE_ALIAS drivers/char/hw_random/optee-rng.mod.c
MODULE_ALIAS("tee:ab7a617c-b8e7-4d8f-8301-d09b61036b64*");

However, if you build it on a big endian host, you will get a wrong
MODULE_ALIAS:

$ grep MODULE_ALIAS drivers/char/hw_random/optee-rng.mod.c
MODULE_ALIAS("tee:646b0361-9bd0-0183-8f4d-e7b87c617aab*");

This issue has been unnoticed because the ARM kernel is most likely built
on a little endian host (cross-build on x86 or native-build on ARM).

The uuid field must not be reversed because uuid_t is an array of __u8.
