[Qemu-devel] [PATCH] virtio: do not take address of packed members
Posted by Paolo Bonzini 5 years, 6 months ago
The address of a packed member is not packed, which may cause accesses
to unaligned pointers.  Avoid this by reading the packed value before
passing it to another function.

        Resubmission of the patch at https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/10160229/
        The vhost part has since been fixed independently (commit
        69aff03064, "vhost-user: fix misaligned access to payload",
        2018-01-18).
