Subject: [PATCH] lib/mpi: Fix kernel unaligned acces in mpi_write_to_sgl
Date: Thu, 21 Apr 2016 07:07:36 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20160421110736.GL22060@oracle.com> (raw)
Commit 2d4d1eea540b ("lib/mpi: Add mpi sgl helpers") added
mpi_write_to_sgl() which generates traps due to unaligned
access on some platforms like sparc. Fix this by using
the get_unaligned* and put_unaligned* functions.
Fixes: 2d4d1eea540b ("lib/mpi: Add mpi sgl helpers")
