Subject: [dpdk-dev] [PATCH] eal: fix 64bit address alignment in 32-bit builds
Date: Fri, 28 Apr 2017 09:15:51 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170428081551.28954-1-bruce.richardson@intel.com> (raw)
On i686 builds, the uint64_t type is 64-bits in size but is aligned to
32-bits only. This causes mbuf fields for rearm_data to not be 16-byte
aligned on 32-bit builds, which causes errors with some vector PMDs which
expect the rearm data to be aligned as on 64-bit.
Given that we cannot use the extra space in the data structures anyway, as
it's already used on 64-bit builds, we can just force alignment of physical
address structure members to 8-bytes in all cases. This has no effect on
64-bit systems, but fixes the updated PMDs on 32-bit.
Fixes: f4356d7ca168 ("net/i40e: eliminate mbuf write on rearm")
Fixes: f160666a1073 ("net/ixgbe: eliminate mbuf write on rearm")
