-Subject: [PATCH v2] Fix: alignment problems on targets not supporting unaligned
- access.
-MIME-Version: 1.0
-Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
-Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
-
-Upstream-Status: Submitted (https://www.mail-archive.com/lttng-dev@lists.lttng.org/msg06012.html) 
-
-Accessing floats, doubles and 64 bit int at unaligned addresses is not
-supported on all configurations of arm processors and if it is it's
-emulated and slow. This patch replaces direct assignments with memcpy.
