From f32325b100eaf9d13063b193ca326ba4adf8310f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Thomas Martitz Date: Thu, 25 Jun 2020 14:26:03 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] net: bridge: enfore alignment for ethernet address [ Upstream commit db7202dec92e6caa2706c21d6fc359af318bde2e ] The eth_addr member is passed to ether_addr functions that require 2-byte alignment, therefore the member must be properly aligned to avoid unaligned accesses. The problem is in place since the initial merge of multicast to unicast: commit 6db6f0eae6052b70885562e1733896647ec1d807 bridge: multicast to unicast Fixes: 6db6f0eae605 ("bridge: multicast to unicast") Cc: Roopa Prabhu Cc: Nikolay Aleksandrov Cc: David S.
