Subject: [PATCH v3 0/2] virtio: alignment issues
Date: Mon, 6 Apr 2020 12:11:56 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200406161146.130741-1-mst@redhat.com> (raw)
This is an alternative to
vhost: force spec specified alignment on types
which is a bit safer as it does not change UAPI.
I still think it's best to change the UAPI header as well,
we can do that as a follow-up cleanup.
Changes from v2:
don't change struct name, instead add ifndef
so kernel does not see the legacy UAPI version.
Jason, can you pls ack one of the approaches?
