Message-ID: <E1IwIF2-0003eP-GH@bigred.inka.de> Date: Sun, 25 Nov 2007 15:13:48 +0100 From: Olaf Titz <olaf@...red.inka.de> To: linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org Subject: Re: [RFC] Documentation about unaligned memory access > Unaligned memory accesses occur when you try to read N bytes of data starting > from an address that is not evenly divisible by N (i.e. addr % N != 0). Should clarify that you mean "with power-of-two N" - even more strictly this depends on the processor, but I'm pretty sure there is none which supports aligned accesses of N==3...
