Subject: [PATCH] net: atlantic: fix ring buffer alignment
Date: Fri, 16 Jun 2023 11:26:32 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230616092645.3384103-1-arnd@kernel.org> (raw)
From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>
clang warns about conflicting packing annotations:
drivers/net/ethernet/aquantia/atlantic/aq_ring.h:72:2: error: field within 'struct aq_ring_buff_s' is less aligned than 'union aq_ring_buff_s::(anonymous at drivers/net/ethernet/aquantia/atlantic/aq_ring.h:72:2)' and is usually due to 'struct aq_ring_buff_s' being packed, which can lead to unaligned accesses [-Werror,-Wunaligned-access]
This was originally intended to ensure the structure fits exactly into
32 bytes on 64-bit architectures, but apparently never did, and instead
just produced misaligned pointers as well as forcing byte-wise access
on hardware without unaligned load/store instructions.
Update the comment to more closely reflect the layout and remove the
broken __packed annotation.
