From f8450fca6ecdea38b5a882fdf6cd097e3ec8651c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Stephen Warren Date: Thu, 10 May 2012 16:14:33 -0600 Subject: [PATCH] printk: correctly align __log_buf __log_buf must be aligned, because a 64-bit value is written directly to it as part of struct log. Alignment of the log entries is typically handled by log_store(), but this only triggers for subsequent entries, not the very first (or wrapped) entries.
