Re: [fpc-pascal] arm-linux, no bus error on misaligned data access

Hello,

my ARM-Linux board seems to be resistant against bus errors/misaligned data 
access or the compiler does some magic to prevent these ;-)


Yes, the kernel fixes the unaligned access.

It would help me, to debug a program, when my board would abort with an error 
message, so that I can isolate the bug.
Does someone know, if there exists something like a Linux option do 
disable/enable data aborts?


Yes, if you want signals, do:

echo 4  /proc/cpu/alignment

... and your program should abort at any unaligned access.
