This patch removes unaligned memory access handling for receiving midcomms messages. This handling will not fix the unaligned memory access in general. All messages should be length aligned to 8 bytes, there exists cases where this isn't the case. It's part of the sending handling to not send such messages. As the sending handling itself, with the internal allocator of page buffers, can occur in unaligned memory access of dlm message fields we just ignore that problem for now as it seems this code is used by architecture which can handle it. This patch adds a comment to take care about that problem in a major bump of dlm protocol. Signed-off-by: Alexander Aring <aahringo@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David Teigland <teigland@redhat.com>
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.
