Linux kernel source tree
The CDAT exposed in sysfs differs between little endian and big endian
arches: On big endian, every 4 bytes are byte-swapped.
PCI Configuration Space is little endian (PCI r3.0 sec 6.1). Accessors
such as pci_read_config_dword() implicitly swap bytes on big endian.
That way, the macros in include/uapi/linux/pci_regs.h work regardless of
the arch's endianness. For an example of implicit byte-swapping, see
ppc4xx_pciex_read_config(), which calls in_le32(), which uses lwbrx
(Load Word Byte-Reverse Indexed).
DOE Read/Write Data Mailbox Registers are unlike other registers in
Configuration Space in that they contain or receive a 4 byte portion of
an opaque byte stream (a "Data Object" per PCIe r6.0 sec 7.9.24.5f).
They need to be copied to or from the request/response buffer verbatim.
So amend pci_doe_send_req() and pci_doe_recv_resp() to undo the implicit
byte-swapping.
The CXL_DOE_TABLE_ACCESS_* and PCI_DOE_DATA_OBJECT_DISC_* macros assume
implicit byte-swapping. Byte-swap requests after constructing them with
those macros and byte-swap responses before parsing them.
Change the request and response type to __le32 to avoid sparse warnings.
Per a request from Jonathan, replace sizeof(u32) with sizeof(__le32) for
consistency.

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.
