Subject: [PATCH v9 18/23] decompress: Use 8 byte alignment
Date: Mon, 7 Aug 2023 18:27:15 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230807162720.545787-19-ardb@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20230807162720.545787-1-ardb@kernel.org>
The ZSTD decompressor requires malloc() allocations to be 8 byte
aligned, so ensure that this the case.
