Hi,

Here is an old patch of mine which I tried to submit in 2006 but never
got it. I didn't really know who was xawtv's maintainer at that time.



The calculation to compute the 64bit alignement in struct-dump.c is
plain wrong. The alignment has to be computed with a structure
containing a char and then a 64bit integer and then substract the
pointer of the 64bit int to the one of the char.

This fix v4l-info doing a Bus Error on sparc with structs containing
64 bit integer following a non 64bit field aligned on a 8 byte boundary
like v4l2_standard.
