[PATCH] Fix pragma packing in ip2 driver

Postby David Howells » Fri, 06 Jan 2006 03:10:17 GMT

The attached patch fixes the pragma packing in the ip2 driver by popping the
previous setting rather than explicitly assuming that the correct setting
is 4.

This also gets around a compiler bug in the FRV compiler when building
allmodconfig.

4.Why #pragma pack() not take effect?

Struct definition as following(on 32-bit Linux):

#pragma pack(push, 8)
struct MY_STRUCT
{
    char a[2];
    short b;
    short c;
    short d;
    int e;
    long long x;
    long long y;
};
#pragma(pop)

During the test, result of 'sizeof(struct MY_STRUCT)' is 28. Why not 32?
As I had expected, a,b,c,d will be packed into one 8-byte, e one and x, y
two. Ain't I right?

If I get wrong usage of #pragma pack(), could anyone please tell me how to
get it work correctly?

BTW, what on earth is the difference between __attribute__ align() and
#pragma pack()?

Thanks in advance!
