[PATCH] tracing: Use alignof__(struct {type b;}) instead of offsetof()

Posted by Steven Rostedt 3 years, 8 months ago

From: "Steven Rostedt (Google)" <rostedt@goodmis.org>

Simplify:

  #define ALIGN_STRUCTFIELD(type) ((int)(offsetof(struct {char a; type b;}, b)))

with

  #define  ALIGN_STRUCTFIELD(type) __alignof__(struct {type b;})

Which works just the same.
