From 649508f684751122aa302ab10f0f06cb4a88415b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: James Hogan Date: Wed, 30 May 2012 12:11:19 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] trace/ring_buffer: handle 64bit aligned structs Some 32 bit architectures require 64 bit values to be aligned (for example Meta which has 64 bit read/write instructions). These require 8 byte alignment of event data too, so use !CONFIG_HAVE_64BIT_ALIGNED_ACCESS instead of !CONFIG_64BIT || CONFIG_HAVE_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS to decide alignment, and align buffer_data_page::data accordingly.
