From 66245ad025e02fe9e727c03d43308bb24e346bb6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mike Waychison Date: Fri, 25 Feb 2011 15:41:49 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] firmware: Fix unaligned memory accesses in dmi-sysfs DMI entries are arranged in memory back to back with no alignment guarantees. This means that the struct dmi_header passed to callbacks from dmi_walk() itself isn't byte aligned. This causes problems on architectures that expect aligned data, such as IA64. The dmi-sysfs patchset introduced structure member accesses through this passed in dmi_header. Fix this by memcpy()ing the structures to temporary locations on stack when inspecting/copying them.
