[PATCH 2/5] include/uapi/linux/blkzoned.h: Remove a superfluous __packed directive

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Using the __packed directive for a structure that does not need
it is wrong because it makes gcc generate suboptimal code on some
architectures. Hence remove the __packed directive from the
blk_zone_report structure definition. See also
