[ Upstream commit 4ba1cb39fce4464151517a37ce0ac0a1a3f580d6 ] The firmware on the original USB2CAN by Geschwister Schneider Technologie Entwicklungs- und Vertriebs UG exchanges all data between the host and the device in host byte order. This is done with the struct gs_host_config::byte_order member, which is sent first to indicate the desired byte order. The widely used open source firmware candleLight doesn't support this feature and exchanges the data in little endian byte order. This breaks if a device with candleLight firmware is used on big endianess systems. To fix this problem, all u32 (but not the struct gs_host_frame::echo_id, which is a transparent cookie) are converted to __le32.

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.
