Subject: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH for-2.9] tests/bios-tables-test: Don't pass addresses of packed struct fields
Date: Mon, 27 Mar 2017 19:18:45 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1490638725-19939-1-git-send-email-peter.maydell@linaro.org> (raw)
Passing the address of a field in a packed struct to a function
that expects a pointer to normally aligned data will result in
a SEGBUS on architectures like SPARC that have strict alignment
requirements.
Pass addresses of local variables rather than addresses of packed
structure fields to glib functions like g_file_get_contents() to
avoid this bug.
