Should d32 be declared as __be32 *?
Hi Sean,

The IPoIB destination address is indeed in big endian format and normally the pointer to it should be of type __be32. However in this case I just want to feed it into the hash function without the flags part. defining d32 as __be32* will make the code a bit ugly as I'll need to cast 3 of "jhash_3words" functions arguments.
That is,

__be32 *d32;
....

hv = jhash_3words((__force u32) d32[3], (__force u32) d32[4], (__force u32)(cpu_to_be32(0xFFFFFF) & d32[0]), 0);


Best regards,

S.P.
