Subject: Re: c/9932: alignment of long long in struct seems to be wrong
Date: Sun, 16 Mar 2003 08:31:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20030316083146.26572.qmail@sources.redhat.com> (raw)

Synopsis: alignment of long long in struct seems to be wrong

State-Changed-From-To: feedback->closed
State-Changed-By: rth
State-Changed-When: Sun Mar 16 08:31:46 2003
State-Changed-Why:
    Not a bug.  The x86 svr4 abi specifies that the maximum alignment
    of data in a structure is 4.  The *preferred* alignment is
    8, so that's what __alignof returns.
    
    There is a modification of this rule for MMX and SSE data
    types, in that they really require 8 and 16 byte alignment
    respectively; in this change we follow the Intel compiler.
