Miller" <davem@...emloft.net> Subject: [PATCH 4.4 08/20] tcp: fix tcp_fastopen unaligned access complaints on sparc 4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Shannon Nelson <shannon.nelson@...cle.com> [ Upstream commit 003c941057eaa868ca6fedd29a274c863167230d ] 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, and making it a proper union to clean up the typecasting. 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 Cc: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@...il.com> Signed-off-by: Shannon Nelson <shannon.nelson@...cle.com> Acked-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@...gle.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
