It had only one definition, so just use the function directly.It had only one definition because it was for ppc64 only. But as far as I understand (at least from the name of the new file), you want it to be generic, don't you ? Therefore I get on 32 bits it would be elf32_to_cpu().
That brings up the question whether we need those endianess conversions. I would assume that the ELF file has always the same endianess as the running kernel. So i think we could just drop them. What do you think? Regards Sven
