Subject: [PATCH 2/4] powerpc/pseries: Fix alignment of PLPKS structures and buffers
Date: Tue, 20 Dec 2022 18:16:24 +1100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20221220071626.1426786-3-ajd@linux.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20221220071626.1426786-1-ajd@linux.ibm.com>

A number of structures and buffers passed to PKS hcalls have alignment
requirements, which could on occasion cause problems:

- Authorisation structures must be 16-byte aligned and must not cross a
  page boundary

- Label structures must not cross page coundaries

- Password output buffers must not cross page boundaries

Round up the allocations of these structures/buffers to the next power of
2 to make sure this happens.
