Subject: configure: endianness check for cross compile
X-Git-Tag: fio-2.0.15~27
X-Git-Url: https://git.kernel.dk/?p=fio.git;a=commitdiff_plain;h=1a17cfdb5e261459920212531d8f5e0eedfb267b;ds=inline

configure: endianness check for cross compile

 - Add a cross compile check: assume yes if we can't run a test binary
 - If cross compiling, revert to a compile-time endianess check. This tries
   a few possible ways to detect big endian, but otherwise assumes little. We
   rely on the run-time check to save us if the build-time check is wrong.
