From: Peter Maydell <peter.mayd...@linaro.org> The sigevent structure includes a union with some fields which are pointers. For the QEMU target_sigevent structure we must represent these as abi_ulongs, not host function pointers.
This error was causing the compiler to believe it should 8-align the _sigev_un union on a 64-bit host, which meant that the code in target_to_host_sigevent() was looking at the wrong offset to find the _tid field, and timer_create() would spuriously fail with EINVAL. This fixes the final loose end noted in LP:1042388. While we're editing the structure, switch the 'int32_t' fields to 'abi_int'; this will only matter for guests with non-standard integer alignment like m68k.
