From 0d40f75bdab241868c0eb6f97aef9f8b3a66f7b3 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jesse Gross Date: Thu, 5 Sep 2013 12:17:05 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] openvswitch: Fix alignment of struct sw_flow_key. sw_flow_key alignment was declared as " __aligned(__alignof__(long))". However, this breaks on the m68k architecture where long is 32 bit in size but 16 bit aligned by default. This aligns to the size of a long to ensure that we can always do comparsions in full long-sized chunks. It also adds an additional build check to catch any reduction in alignment.
