The patch titled ieee1394: sbp2: use __attribute__((packed)) for on-the-wire structures has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is ieee1394-sbp2-use-__attribute__packed-for.patch See http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/patches/stuff/added-to-mm.txt to find out what to do about this ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: ieee1394: sbp2: use __attribute__((packed)) for on-the-wire structures From: Stefan Richter <stefanr@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> It seems to have worked without the attribute during all the years just because sizes of all struct members are multiples of octlets.
