Subject: [OASIS Issue Tracker] Created: (VIRTIO-9) Change config space, ring and headers to always be little endian


Change config space, ring and headers to always be little endian
----------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: VIRTIO-9
                 URL: http://tools.oasis-open.org/issues/browse/VIRTIO-9
             Project: OASIS Virtual I/O Device (VIRTIO) TC
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Rusty Russell


They are currently guest-endian, and it's been a source of confusion and pain (esp. for architectures which can switch endian!).

There remains a question mark on virtio-ccw performance implications, but it's probably better to go LE everywhere than per-transport.
