Subject: [PATCH] tcp: fix tcp_fastopen unaligned access complaints on sparc
Date: Thu, 12 Jan 2017 11:59:17 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1484251157-245538-1-git-send-email-shannon.nelson@oracle.com> (raw)

Fix up a data alignment issue on sparc by swapping the order
of the cookie byte array field with the length field in
struct tcp_fastopen_cookie

This addresses log complaints like these:
    log_unaligned: 113 callbacks suppressed
    Kernel unaligned access at TPC[976490] tcp_try_fastopen+0x2d0/0x360
    Kernel unaligned access at TPC[9764ac] tcp_try_fastopen+0x2ec/0x360
    Kernel unaligned access at TPC[9764c8] tcp_try_fastopen+0x308/0x360
    Kernel unaligned access at TPC[9764e4] tcp_try_fastopen+0x324/0x360
    Kernel unaligned access at TPC[976490] tcp_try_fastopen+0x2d0/0x360
