The file_test.sh test assumes all PPC systems are big-endian (MSB), but
this assumption is incorrect on the new ppc64le little-endian (LSB)
systems and file06 and file10 report false failures:
file06 0 TINFO : TEST #6: file command recognizes ELF executables
file06 6 TFAIL : ltpapicmd.c:156: file: Failed to Recognize ELF binary
executable. Reason:
/tmp//cprog: ELF 64-bit LSB executable, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked
(uses shared libs), ...
...
file10 0 TINFO : TEST #10: file command recognizes vmlinu file
file10 10 TFAIL : ltpapicmd.c:156: file: Failed to Recognize vmlinu
correctly. Reason:
/boot/vmlinuz: ELF 64-bit LSB shared object, version 1 (SYSV), statically
linked, ...
This patch fixes the test so ppc64le is checked for "LSB", not "MSB".
