Also, you can't just use packed attribute on every struct that is encoded/decoded because that will eventually incur a performance hit. What I had in mind with https://github.com/XinzeChi/ceph/commit/06eb471e463a4687e251273d0b5dfe170acbef2d#commitcomment-14755615 is to use temporary, packed struct, copy data from original struct/class into it, and then copy data from packed struct in one go.
