[asterisk-dev] zaptel 1.2.7 endianness issues

[Stelios Koroneos]

Greetings to all !
Recently i ported  asterisk  1.2.10 and zaptel 1.2.7 drivers with zaphfc to
an embedded powerpc platform with a 2.6 kernel and i am facing varius issues
which seem to be related to endianness (although i have no concrete evidence
yet).
* and the drivers (zaptel,wcfxo and zaphfc) load sucessfully but there are a
number of issues

1) wcfxo
Calls to the interface get recognized and answered by *,ivr playback works
but if a wait or waitextn is in the dialplan then * waits there for ever
ignoring all user input or timeouts.Also cpu utilization gets to 100%
On the same machine if i make a sip call and execute the same dialplan it
works without a problem


2) zaphfc
Although it loads sucessfully using ztcfg to configure the interfaces
generates kernel panics or system hangups

I have tried versions with and without bristuff patches (on * and drivers)

I am in the process of getting gdbserver to run on the platform and pinpoint
the problem but i was wondering if anyone using * on ppc/powerpc or other
bigendian platform has faced any similar problems.
