commit4c3d2f9388upstream. alignof() gives an alignment of types as they would be as standalone variables. But alignment in structures might be different, and when building the fields of events, the alignment must be the actual alignment otherwise the field offsets may not match what they actually are. This caused trace-cmd to crash, as libtraceevent did not check if the field offset was bigger than the event. The write_msr and read_msr events on 32 bit had their fields incorrect, because it had a u64 field between two ints. alignof(u64) would give 8, but the u64 field was at a 4 byte alignment. Define a macro as: ALIGN_STRUCTFIELD(type) ((int)(offsetof(struct {char a; type b;}, b))) which gives the actual alignment of types in a structure.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
