Hello, I reported these unaligned accesses originally and tested this patch on an ARMv5 kirkwood device using a 3.6.2 kernel. I set /proc/cpu/alignment to 5 (signal+warn), and got no signals anymore using this patch. I tested mkfs.btrfs, sub list and sub find-new (which all signalled before the patch) and additionally inspect-internal inode-resolve and btrfsck. None of them signalled or showed any other issues. tested-by: Andre Diekwisch <andred <at> mail.upb.de> Thanks a lot Arne, this patch finally renders btrfs-progs usable on an ARM-machine without enabling unaligned access trapping for userspace. I'll report back should I run into more issues regarding unaligned accesses. Hope this patch gets accepted. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-btrfs" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
