From 91b7b231f5e76447ad0c8d9318ca8e72441a10c8 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jonathan Cameron Date: Sun, 20 Sep 2020 12:27:40 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] iio:pressure:mpl3115: Force alignment of buffer commit 198cf32f0503d2ad60d320b95ef6fb8243db857f upstream. Whilst this is another case of the issue Lars reported with an array of elements of smaller than 8 bytes being passed to iio_push_to_buffers_with_timestamp(), the solution here is a bit different from the other cases and relies on __aligned working on the stack (true since 4.6?) This one is unusual. We have to do an explicit memset() each time as we are reading 3 bytes into a potential 4 byte channel which may sometimes be a 2 byte channel depending on what is enabled. As such, moving the buffer to the heap in the iio_priv structure doesn't save us much. We can't use a nice explicit structure on the stack either as the data channels have different storage sizes and are all separately controlled.
