Hmmm... this seemed to generate a 124-byte struct instead of the stated
intent of 128.
Maybe instead:
#define _SS_MAXSIZE 128
#if ULONG_MAX > 0xffffffff
#define __ss_aligntype __u64
#else
#define __ss_aligntype __u32
#endif
#define _ALIGNSIZE (sizeof(__ss_aligntype))
struct sockaddr_storage {
sa_family_t ss_family;
__ss_aligntype __data[_SS_MAXSIZE/_ALIGNSIZE-1] __attribute__
((aligned(_ALIGNSIZE)));
} __attribute ((aligned(_ALIGNSIZE)));
Align the struct on _ALIGNSIZE; align _data on _ALIGNSIZE to to generate
padding between ss_family and __data.
