all above have 32bits. It means on 64bit cpu you have 32bit gap here.

On all architectures? I mean do all 64-bit architecture ABIs _require_
the pointer to be aligned at 8-byte boundary? Even if so, the struct
itself can be aligned on 4-byte boundary.

I am not able to tell if toolchain enforce 8byte alignment by default/by setup on all 64bit systems. I am using pahole to check this which was recommended by Greg in past which reports gap in the middle.

thanks,
Michal
