Subject: [PATCH] system certificates: specify byte alignment
Date: Fri, 12 Sep 2025 11:00:15 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250912100015.1267643-1-gprocida@google.com> (raw)
The .align macro is architecture dependent. On arm64 it behaves as
.p2align. The various alignments in this file are all bytes.
So use the .balign macro to avoid unnecessary padding due to
over-alignment.
