To make handling BIG and LITTLE endian better the offset/len of dynamic
fields of the synthetic events was changed into a structure of:
struct trace_dynamic_info {
#ifdef CONFIG_CPU_BIG_ENDIAN
u16 offset;
u16 len;
#else
u16 len;
u16 offset;
#endif
};
to replace the manual changes of:
data_offset = offset & 0xffff;
data_offest = len << 16;
But if you look closely, the above is:
<len> << 16 | offset
Which in little endian would be in memory:
offset_lo offset_hi len_lo len_hi
and in big endian:
len_hi len_lo offset_hi offset_lo
Which if broken into a structure would be:
struct trace_dynamic_info {
#ifdef CONFIG_CPU_BIG_ENDIAN
u16 len;
u16 offset;
#else
u16 offset;
u16 len;
#endif
};
Which is the opposite of what was defined.
Fix this and just to be safe also add "__packed".

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
