[PATCH 4.19 123/152] ARCv2: Enable unaligned access in early ASM code

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

 



4.19-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Eugeniy Paltsev <Eugeniy.Paltsev@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 252f6e8eae909bc075a1b1e3b9efb095ae4c0b56 upstream.

It is currently done in arc_init_IRQ() which might be too late
considering gcc 7.3.1 onwards (GNU 2018.03) generates unaligned
memory accesses by default
